NOTE: Filmed from low in the stands on the right side (Adam's side) at an approximately 20 degree angle from the stage.  The taper is far enough removed from the stage that he does not attempt many true closeups.  The vast majority of the footage is wide-angle, with considerable variation in the zoom level.  The quality of the footage improves as the sun sets and the night begins.  The sunlight that is present at the beginning of the concert limits the sharpness of the picture.  As darkness sets in, picture clarity gets better.  However, don't expect to see the level of detail that is visible on the best audience-shot DVDs of this tour.  The distance between the taper and the stage does not allow it.  Check out the screen captures and look at the few relative closeups that are included.  You will see the effects that this distance has on the quality of the footage.  The audio on this DVD is excellent.  In fact, it is far better than on most audio recordings from the European leg of the Vertigo Tour.  For some reason the person who converted this video to DVD split "Sunday Bloody Sunday" over both discs.  The encore performance of "Vertigo" cuts out 2:35 into the song, just after Bono says "Just give me what I want..."

To get an idea of what the overall quality of this recording, check out the screen captures from the one disc bootleg with the same title.  It was likely created by ripping the two disc bootleg to .mpg files and then re-encoding the files at a lower bitrate to allow them to fit on a single disc.  To be honest, I can't see a lot of difference between the two recordings.
