    Mavic Pro Oil Painting with official ND filter

    I got my Mavic as my first real drone a few weeks back. As a hobby photographer I did not expect the camera to be excellent. But i did expect it to be at least on par with a mobile phone. I´ve seen some good photos but I struggle to get the quality I wished for. More and more wanting the...

    Need help with Mavic remote control settings

    If you go to china and have a look at the map on your samsung. You will se that the map will show you at a position 500meters away. It would be to complicated to go into the details, but there is a offset between the GPS system and the maps over China. To correct this when you are flying in...

    Should we really use manual exposure settings?

    The manual does state it can be used for ISO settings. However it does not say how to do it. I have been able to have mine adjust the ISO. Not sure how, but might have been as simple as to push the wheel to cycle between ISO and Shutter ?

    You should be able to focus on an object at the hyper focal distance and almost everything in your frame should be within acceptable focus. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Indoor flight modes.

    When outside at night in pitch black,the drone brakes when you center the stick. Why does it need good lighting to do the same inside? It's not like the GPS is able to tell the drone if it drifts a few inches or even a few feet. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Indoor flight modes.

    If I understand you correctly and combines it with my experience I get this. ATTI mode = Uses gyroscope/accelerometer to keep the drone level, does not care about drift. Only barometric altitude? Opti mode = Uses gyroscope/accelerometer/positioning cameras to keep drone level and also...

    Indoor flight modes.

    I've burned trough a couple of batteries indoors just to practice in atti mode. So far no damage:) Can anyone please in depth tell me about how atti mode works? I realize that without GPS the Mavic doesn't know it's exact horizontal position. There is no reason why it should not know it's...

    Question about ND Filters

    Hello For most use setting white balance to settings like sunny or cloudy will be good enough. What´s most important is that it´s consistent trough all the shots. I´t might not be 100% correct, but most won't notice. If colours/white balance changes during a shot, then most people will notice...
