    St. Croix - Mavic Air

    Thanks! I used the D-Cinelike profile and color graded on an Avid Symphony. I shot with a ND 32 or ND 16 filter at usually 100 ISO, shutter speed at 60. Frame rate at 29.97, but edited on a 23.98 timeline so it plays at a slight slow motion.

    St. Croix - Mavic Air

    Here's a video of St. Croix. I'm still a novice pilot but am loving the learning process. Shot on an Air with Polar Pro filters. I used D Cinelike and color graded on Avid Symphony.

    Bonaire Video

    Yeah, I got a high wind alert once or twice, but the MA managed it pretty well.

    Bonaire Video

    After a few weeks of practice at home, here's my first video. The landscape in Bonaire is beautiful...my drone skills needs some work but hoping to do some better and more interesting shots next month in St Croix. Shot on a Mavic Air in 4K D-Cinelike with polar pro filters, mainly the 16ND...

    What video editing software you guys using?

    Ah, I would put my money on the transitions being the cause of the problem. I don't know Movavi, but if you're able, check to see if the transition effect is 8 bpc (bits per channel). In addition to projects to having varying bits per channel (usually 8 bpc, 16, or 32), so too can effects. A...

    What video editing software you guys using?

    Also, do you see the stutter in the same place in the 4K file? If not, it could just be your computer is having issues with playback and the banding could be a result of your monitor's resolution.

    What video editing software you guys using?

    Are you seeing the stutter and banding when playing the exported file or while trying to watch on your editing software? If it's in the exported 4K file, what codec did you use to export? And are you viewing it via an online stream? Many artifacts and quality issues are introduced in...

    What video editing software you guys using?

    I'm a beginner drone pilot but I've been a professional film and TV editor for over 15 years. My two cents - In terms of features in editing software, I would think that a DJI user might want to have access to 1) an easy 4K workflow 2) good color grading tools 3) the ability to conform high...

    Using a Mavic Air and iphone overseas

    Can't wait! An ND32 was just delivered to my door...from my test flights, I was thinking that with the bright sun and the salt flats, I might need it. Has anyone shot in the bright Caribbean sun? Was a ND16 enough?

    Using a Mavic Air and iphone overseas

    I bought a mavic air a few weeks back with plans to do a lot of shooting on vacation in Bonaire next week. But then while on a practice flight, I realized that I usually keep my phone on "airplane mode" with the wifi enabled when traveling overseas to avoid cellular charges but keeping the...
