    Mavic Air - no ND filter in bright sunlight - photo vs video

    I noticed that it is essential to use an ND filter in bright sunlight to get decent photos. Was flying without ND filter yesterday, the photos would have required at least ND 4 to look good. The strange thing is that video footage from the same location using the same manual settings looks...

    Not sure on spark or air.

    I recently got the air and I love it. More important than picking the drone model (both choices are good choices) is thinking about what you are going to create with your new drone. Have fun!

    Strong interference to aircraft

    Mavic Air / internal memory / connecting USB-C crashes windows 10

    My windows 10 notebook is company issued and does not allow me to adjust the startup settings. Using my Mac and everything is plug and play ... as expected!
