    Mavic 2 Tripod or handle?

    Saw both of these on Amazon and thought they were interesting as well. If I can get that solution to work I’m going to sell mine two Osmos. Osmo has several advantages including pan and scan shooting however if I can do all my shots including handheld ones with the same one inch sensor that...

    Not a dumb question. I need anti-filters for some of my shoots with my DSLR too. Controlling depth of field.

    Mavic 2 ND filters available now?

    Does anyone have suggestions for a Mavic 2 Pro ND filter set that is reasonably high quality and actually available now? Most of them say September 25 availability. I might just wait for the DJI or polarpro filters but I would like to start getting meaningful shooting done ASAP. That will...

    Does anyone know if the Mavic Air can shoot totaly vertical at 90 degrees to the ground? I just purchased the Mavic 2 Pro but I just canceled the order. As discussed, Neither new Mavic drone can shoot totally vertically at 90 degrees. That's the most important feature for me. I am asking...

    DJI Goggles FINALLY HERE!!!!

    Hey guys, I ordered mine this morning for 449 on the DJI store. These will be great primarily to avoid the issue of sun when framing my shots. However… It would be great if I could also use these instead of my cheap Google cardboard like headset I put my iPhone 7 Plus in. So I'm wondering...

    Mavic water recovery system

    What kind of balls are those? Are those the kind of foam balls you can get at that Michael's craft store? Looks like a great idea. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Mavic water recovery system

    I think they are 100 feet long. Pretty sure if it's deeper than the system won't be effective. Looks like it was originally designed for fishermen to get their fishing rods back. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Mavic water recovery system

    Here is a video of it in action. It's 17 bucks on Amazon so I might go ahead and buy one. Saw another video of a guy who attached two to his Mavic. Maybe he was thinking redundancy or balancing the extremely low weight. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Another option is to use this very light weight system: GetterBack Rod Recovery System with Black Velcro Strap, Yellow https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GIYIU8Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_jE8CybP4703NG Although it could be challenging to see the small float that deploys from the submerged object. Because...

    Sunshade

    Thank you for that post. I just clicked on the link and it took me all of 35 seconds to place the order with ApplePay. 22 bucks and some change with standard shipping. Although it sounds like it's a pre-order item so it might not arrive terribly fast. Still appears to be quicker than getting...
