    Mini 5 Pro officially launched outside the US.

    So up to the owner to apply which sticker thinks applies? Once they put a C1 sticker over the C0 sticker, there's no going back, unless DJI would send you more C0 stickers?

    Mini 5 Pro officially launched outside the US.

    Is the C0 CE mark etched on the body like with other DJI drones? Then you would put the C1 label over the C0 etching?

    Perspective transformations in post production

    So Lightroom doesn't have auto lens corrections for the latest DJI drone cameras?

    Mini 5 Pro is Broadcasting RID with ALL Batteries, Including the Mini 5 Pro Standard Battery

    Can you use a VPN or some other methods to mask IP? You’d typically would get the Ip from the cell network your phone is connected to, not your own home network.

    Legal or Illegal?

    Yeah that's one thing I noticed about state and local agencies or city governments. Not just in the US but all over the world. They have film and TV commissions for issuing licenses to professional film and TV productions. They have a specific fees table, which includes their own personnel...

    Anyone had their Mini weight checked?

    But technically in NZ, you have to get permit in a lot of DOC lands. Actually I think it's a fee to apply for the permit. You may pay over 200 NZD and they may still deny your request, you don't get that money back. In addition, some councils want money to fly on some of their lands as well.

    Legal or Illegal?

    I appreciate that but honestly, are little drones scaring those species more than the cars that whiz up and down that highway? Or the crowds in the summer?

    Legal or Illegal?

    Interesting. But this one leaves no doubt and there are a couple of others taken from a similar angle west of the bridge, over the water.

    Legal or Illegal?

    Well that one, the camera seems to be suspended over the terrain which is a steep incline going down to the water from the road. Unless there's some elevated observation deck there, it would have to have been taken from the air.

    Legal or Illegal?

    Despite having lived in CA most of my life, I never visited Bixby Bridge near Big Sur in the California Central Coast. I researched it, the state prohibits drone flights along long stretches of the coast including this area because of marine birds. So flabbergasted to see this photo in this...

    Tariff charging is getting worse

    Did the HK seller offer a FMC as well? Wait HK doesn't have taxes so which taxes did he charge you, CA taxes? Why would an HK seller collect CA taxes?

    Focus Mavic4 pro on pano

    Can’t you tap and focus on the middle of the pano you’re visualizing and then initiate the pano and the focus shouldn’t change? There should be enough depth of field since typically the terrain is hundreds, if not thousands of feet away?

    Focus Mavic4 pro on pano

    Nice! You use a grid for the 30% overlap? You can really see the noise if you zoom in but obviously wasn't a real long exposure so the ISO must have been high. The main thing I like about the auto pano modes is that it puts all the individual DNGs into each folder so when I do batch...

    Air 2s Lavaux, UNESCO listed vineyards in Switzerland

    Beautiful. Where were you able to launch and land from? I was there a couple of years ago and you either took a train and hiked a lot or drove and there were a few places on the road where you could turn out and park the car for a bit. But it was next to a road so maybe not the best place to...

    Focus Mavic4 pro on pano

    Wow which cities are those? What was the shutter speed and ISO? Was it using the built-in pano modes or manually shooting each shot, long exposures for each shot?
