If it's powerful enough you might get a free cancer radiation treatment via heavy ions. Opposite of cosmic rays with nutrinos that can blast through DNA and cause cancer. As per the drone, I have no idea. Never flown in strong solar flairs before. I have prostrate cancer. I'll be out there...

Every NLE has limitations. I'm producing a project for distribution on FilmHub and they want Prores 4:2:2 delivery. Davinci Resolve for windows does not offer that option per patent conflictions. So in this case I have to render Avid then use Adobe Media Encoder to transcode to Prores...

Wow Dale, most of those are creative decisions. Do some testing at home first. Try auto in a high contrast scene. Note how the exposure changes as you move away from sky to ground. See if that is acceptable to you. Also turn on your zebras and see what auto decides to do. What part of the...

Good to read your post as well. The color wheels in PP are difficult and are primarily for changing hues in color. Something that would be considered a secondary grade to create a "look". A general hue of Teal has been in the vogue for awhile now with some film makers. I would stick to...

There are a lot of terms being discussed in this thread. I'm not sure there may not be some confusion involved. First off, I can't answer your question. It depends on your tolerance and interest in learning. Raw; No consumer DJI drones produce raw video footage. Raw is not a video file...

If you can afford the time to slow charge you will get more cycles out of a battery. I have 18650's that I use for vaping that have lasted incredible time periods by charging at .5A. Having said that, obviously using DJI chargers you have no choice.

As much as I don't like the overused word "amazing" that is what I see the Mavic 3 as. MFT with D-log @ 200mbs is no joke in the video world. That blows most camcorders out of the water. I have to assume it's 4:2:0 8 bit as I can find nothing regarding that but it's still quite impressive...

Only if you want motion blur like a speeding car or a waterfall. Having said that, conditions have to be really good to prevent camera shake from wind/drone movement.

She's running around naked outside and he's confronting people who see her......... Hmmmmmm..... Good neighbors to stay away from. I would gladly keep my drone and myself a good distance from them. I surely wouldn't post the event on social media. Let me know where this neighborhood is. I...

My experience with ProRes is meh. Many production houses use Final Cut Pro and ProRes is native to that NLE. ProRes does come in a number of different flavors. ProRes 4:4:4 is a form of raw that many cinematographers do like. I don't believe the Mavic provides this codec. I believe the...

Thank you, that's good to know. I do respectfully disagree in regard to ineptitude however. As you stated, "they just don't care to hear from you" constitutes ineptitude per my perspective. Couple that with a bill that bans a manufacturer and does not address the root problem they are...

Just forwarded the response to you. Good luck I guess. I've written government off. Nothing but corruption in my estimation.

I attempted to contact the Michigan supporter of this bill. Went to the contact page for him and filled out the form. Sent my message. In less than three minutes I got a response. This email is not supported. I should sign up for the congressman's newsletter. That says it all for me...

To me this is just another example of the inept nature of government. If it's controversial, ban it. The ban ban mentality has been prevalent for some time now. The only theory that supports these actions would be that to be elected one must cognitively impaired.

No idea here. Looks to be a rhythmic oscillation. Glad to hear it quit doing that!
