    Question for UK mavic Pilots

    I saw those on the Apple UK site and a lot of other shops, but just want to get the + Celluar version and just pick up a O2 or EE pay as you go sim card. Can't get my head around why the used 4g Mini 4's are so rare. I can easy pick up a new one in Currys, but it is the 550+ price tag for...

    PC/Laptop requirements for editing

    Cheers Doecliff, thinking it is too and like I said it is giving me the option to upgrade if need be, but I think it will be fine for the forseeable future. It was just frustrating seeing a particular laptop that got great recommendations on one review site and then the next site was saying it...

    New policy about firmware update and restrictions

    It's the wording that has me baffled. "and its operations will be restricted if you update the upcoming firmware". Actually, scratch that, I waded my way through the wording and think I understand it now. If you update the firmware without first updating the app you will be restricted...

    New policy about firmware update and restrictions

    Just received this in my inbox, but think they worded a sentence wrong (or I'm not reading it correctly) "and it's operations will be restricted if you UPDATE the upcoming firmware. Surely that should read 'if you don't update' or am I reading it wrong? Dear...

    PC/Laptop requirements for editing

    Thanks again to everyone for your responses, it has been most helpful.. After all this, I have decided that a desktop tower will probably be best for me, in regards to power and future expansion. To that end, I have narrowed it down to these three finalists as they are ready made and I'm...

    My perspective on the economics of Mavic ownership

    Was thinking that Adiru, they have the same spec pc except has a NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 (8 GB GDDR5X dedicated) card for 300 more. Was thinking I can just get away with the 1070 for now and boost the graphics later. Put the 300 towards a decent monitor Not sure what the Zotac Sli it means?

    My perspective on the economics of Mavic ownership

    Thank you, everyone, for your responses. Think after almost another day of reading all your advice and researching I've narrowed it down to the HP laptop I described above and an HP Omen gaming desktop running: * i7-7700 (3.6 GHz, up to 4.2 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Technology, 8 MB cache, 4...

    PC/Laptop requirements for editing

    Thanks for all help and information guys, it is much appreciated. Think I finally found one in the price range I have set for myself that I think has the guts to handle the editing AND has a 17-inch screen. Again it would be greatly appreciated if someone with a lot more brain power than I have...
