    Travels in Croatia - Labin sunset

    I’ve been staying just outside Labin in Istria and saw this beautiful sunset. There are so many opportunities for wonderful landscapes in Croatia. The scenery is incredible, with medieval villages nestling on hilltops and craggy coastlines with crystal clear seas. I’ve loved seeing more of this...

    Another evening photo

    I’ll definitely have to give that a try ?

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    I think I’ll wait for that to be a full release but in the meantime I also found this which might be a cheaper short term fix RAVPower FileHub, Travel Router AC750, Wireless SD Card Reader, Connect Portable SSD Hard Drive to iPhone iPad Tablet Smart Phone Laptop for Photo Backup, Data Transfer...

    Another evening photo

    Really lovely shot. I’m amazed how sharp it is given the exposure time. I’m struggling with anything over 2 seconds. Was it a very calm evening?

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    Hi. I’ve tried quite a few but none that I’ve found give you access to an sd card plugged in to the iPad other than the photos app importing images in specific folders. Is there anything you’ve found that solves this?

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    Not that I’ve found unfortunately. Nothing that will let you browse an external drive/card without buying additional hardware too.

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    So...I could connect the iPad to the remote, open DJI Sync on that device and copy the hyperlapse stills over. It’s a good workaround for now. I can just leave it going once done for the day. Good shout. I’ll give that a try before I leave. Thanks for your help. As a side note I spoke to Apple...

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    Thanks. I did look at that but was trying not to have to spend more money. I also couldn’t quite work out whether that would let me browse a card folder structure from the iPad or would just copy the contents of the sd card.

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    Ah. Sorry. To clarify. I do have a card reader to connect the micro sd card to the iPad. Normally I pull the DNGs off that into Photos and then import to Lightroom. However, using this process Photos doesn’t see the hyperlapse DNGs. These live in a folder called HYPERLAPSE inside DCIM whereas...

    Hyperlapse iPad workflow problem

    I wonder if anyone can help with this. I’m taking my M2P to Croatia and will only have my iPad Pro with me. I’ve recently started taking hyperlapse movies and encountered a problem with my mobile workflow. At home I always process the DNG on my pc rather than using the videos that the drone...

    Should I go for the Mavic 2 Pro?

    I read everything I could get my hands on and wavered back and forth for months. I’m a keen amateur photographer and in the end just thought I’d regret not spending the extra for the larger sensor. I’m not that interested in video and for me the 2 Pro is absolutely great. A joy to fly and shoot...

    Well the 2 I have come across just flew up and then flew away again. So far 100% success

    Hawk or buzzard attack today!

    I’ve had a couple of hawks fly up near my Mavic. They just seemed interested in what it was. I’ve not had it long but I read a bit about bird attacks before I bought it and it made sense to me that birds of prey might mistake a grey drone for a pigeon or other food. So just in case (and because...

    M2P urban night shots

    All f2.8 between 0.4 and 2 sec exposure depending on the brightness of the scene. The car park for example was at 0.4. Anything longer than 2 sec was too blurred as it was quite windy. ISO either 100 or 200 to minimise noise as much as possible. Quite a bit of post to lift shadows, tweak...

    M2P urban night shots

    Hi. Check out the UK drone safe website here: Drone code - Dronesafe There’s nothing here that mentions night flying. Also here’s the CAA website regarding recreational flights: Recreational drone flights | UK Civil Aviation Authority I think there might be different permissions required for...
