    IPad Mini 5

    I am also flying with an iPad mini 5 and love it. Great screen Rez. I wish I could screen share with the magic mini though, would make it easier for my director but so far no easy way to do that. Since I shoot with several cameras I also picked up the EagleEye HDMI transmitter from PilotFly in...

    Opinions on using filters

    I shoot for a living, have for a VERY long time. ND and Polarizing filters are a must for certain conditions on any camera. Especially when you have no control over the triangle other than exposure + or -. I recently bought the complete set of 8 from FreeWorld. Due to conditions around the...

    Mavic Mini ND Filter Tutorial // Do you really need them?

    Thanks for posting this. I just got my 8 pack from Freewell on Wednesday, though I have not yet used them. I have to say that dealing with Freewell was excellent. Great service and communication and the filters are really nicely packaged in a solid case. They also appear to be quite well...

I try to avoid using my cell service if possible when in some areas since it is often sketchy, always expensive and...

    Hi from Montréal, Quebec Canada.

    It was so calm the a couple of catamarans were as the sailors say "in irons' out several hundred meters. The reason I was on the beach was to shoot two models walking by very calm and turquoise water on a white sand beach. The drone shots were just part of the "shoot". Apparently many of the...

    Looking for a smaller tablet - Mavic Mini -Suggestions?

    I just bought an iPad mini 5 non cellular for my Mavic Mini. My understanding now is that due to the fact it is not cellular I will not have GPS and that I should purchase a Dual Electronics XGPS150A bluetooth GPS receiver. My hope was that I could get GPS into the iPad by tethering it to my...

    Hi from Montréal, Quebec Canada.

    Finally decided to add a drone to my camera kit, after flying a Tello for a year for fun. Starting with a Mavic Mini and we shall she where it goes. My first flying experience with the Mini saw it get (what I have been told) jammed/gps spoofed. It flew off after displaying conditions that did...
