    My first crack at DaVinci - my Mini footage turned to mush (with movement)

    Hi Scinch.... Perhaps you are right. But I have seen some videos on You Tube that look perfect. It very well could be that they were filmed correctly to start with. I know my video was shot under bad conditions. Can you post a link to ne of your videos? I would like to see what it looks...

    Bass Harbor Maine. Fall 2019. ~Cloudy day grainy footage :( [Need help with settings/editing low light footage.]

    Thank you Scncer. When Kodak stopped making Kodachrome, I switched to Fugichrome Velvia, ISO 50 as well. I still shoot film. As well as slides, I shoot Super8, 16mm and a little 35 mm. A couple of years ago, Kodak re introduced a new mix of the old Ektachrome. I have shot some in my 35mm...

    Changed all my 3 batteries to “2 days”

    My three mostly new Mavic Mini batteries (about a month old) still show 100% charge after more then 2 weeks. Bad weather in my area restricts my flying. What is the proper way to take care of my batteries? And what about the battery in the controller? Thanks so much. mraroid

    No cost, royality free music for drone footage?

    My bad. Apologizes to Eric. Thank you so much Eric for the music. Some of us (well me) have no musical ability. We wish we had some short royalty free music for the drone footage. I am quite happy to post a link and give credit to you and your site if I use your music. Thanks again. mraroid

    New DJI Flight Simulator

    Well, that is the last question I will ask about this software. Guess I will learn how to fly the old time way, and fly my drone in a open field. Thank you. mraroid

    Extendable sticks for your controller

    Here is a link for the Mavic Mini/Mavic 2/Mavic Air: https://www.amazon.com/Neigei-Controller-Extendable-Telescopic-Adjustable/dp/B08154SH53/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=mavic+mini+extendable+sticks&qid=1583695430&sr=8-2 I see that the sticks are adjustable in height. Nice touch. mraroid

    My first crack at DaVinci - my Mini footage turned to mush (with movement)

    I re rendered my project. I changed the Encoding Profile from Auto to High. Like the other vidoes, it looks fine before I upload it to You Tube, but crappy when I play it back on my 4K OLED TV. I could not figure out how to change the frame rate from 29.97 to 30 fps. I have no idea what...

    Bass Harbor Maine. Fall 2019. ~Cloudy day grainy footage :( [Need help with settings/editing low light footage.]

    Hi BingErr.... Premiere Pro is outstanding. So the issue is not the software you are using. DaVinci is free and is available for the Mac and the PC. It comes with a pdf of the users manual which is slightly over 3,000 pages long. I also bought a book on DaVinci Resolve 16 on Amazon (about...

    My first crack at DaVinci - my Mini footage turned to mush (with movement)

    Hello jumpinbean.... I should have paid attention to your comment about You Tube's compression. I did a second render and changed to a bitrate of 8,000. My video looked the same on You Tube. So this time, I looked at both videos before I uploaded them to You Tube. Both videos looked quite...
