    Does anyone else get this blurry graininess when uploading to YT lately? (Paris y Portugal)

    It was uploaded/posted last night and I reviewed it this morning, 8 or so hours after). I do recall YouTube always compressing the new videos but never noticed it taking this long to get to 1080 (it was uploaded at 4k). But I've only been on mobile so maybe the desktop is different? Are you also...

    Does anyone else get this blurry graininess when uploading to YT lately? (Paris y Portugal)

    Mavic Footage starts at 00:23 I've uploaded other videos without any issues in the past, but this time I allowed the rendering to max bit rate so not sure if that's the cause of the issue. Prefer not to render a few hours and upload for another few hours again if that's not the case. Anyone...

    How much better is the MP2 vs MAir?

    Think there isn't any argument there, my question is, is it twice as better? or worth double the cost?

    How much better is the MP2 vs MAir?

    Thought the Air was 42mph? which is similar to MP1? The lack of occusync def wasn't great, but considering these last few trips think the range is fine. Any more info on the narrow gimbal movement range?

    How much better is the MP2 vs MAir?

    Yeah I guess what I was trying to calculate is how much better, for instance would only filmmakers tell the difference between the cameras? At what point does it not make a difference anymore Retail price wouldn't be bad but if it included the fly more, but to include + filters it's going to be...

    How much better is the MP2 vs MAir?

    Now that the Mavic 2 pricing is available and it's official, is it twice as good as the Air? As a MP1 owner with a fudged up gimbal, was looking to getting the Air but wanted to wait for the 2 just in case. Mostly all my videos are taken abroad so compact-ability is weighted heavier as for...

    PC vs. Mac- Video Editing

    Just curious for all the mac users on pre 2016 models, do you have to optimize media for 4k on FCP?

    Is 4K worth it?

    Agree. I used to film in 4k but the amount of time and effort it takes in post even with optimized media just isn't worth it for my viewing audience. Don't get me wrong I think everyone, myself included would like to prevent being out dated (look back at shows/sports recorded in the 90s. And...

    If you could only choose one which would it be? Exp or Shutter

    I understand in a perfect world you would want perfect exposure and your shutter to be double your FPS. But I'm curious let's say you get one chance to take a shot and could only choose one which would it be? I know a lot of people preach double the shutter to get the blur right, but does it...

    Finally was able to edit/grade my first full video MotorBiking Vietnam - Any Pointers?

    Thanks, definitely was! The dragon bridge actually breaths fire every Sunday night, unfortunately we couldn't stay that long. Also if you look closely at the very beginning of the clip the whole dragon changes color through the night (in this case blue to green)

    possible deal, possible scam *edit* it’s a scam

    The site looks kind of scammy? Did you already receive the drone?

    Finally was able to edit/grade my first full video MotorBiking Vietnam - Any Pointers?

    Little Background: I don't have any photo/video experience. Got the Mavic right before a huge trip I had planned for a couple years now. I was watching Resolve tutorial videos my whole flight there and back (60+Hrs). Took me almost a year to edit, compile, and grade. Which is more than I'd like...

    Anyone use smartphone/gopro gimbals?

    Been doing a lot of researching of new equipment to accommodate the drone on some of my trips and was thinking a stabilizer would be next. Anyone have any experience with handheld gimbals? I know the Osmo Mobile 2 just dropped and have read good things about the Feiyu G5 / WG2, also the SPG and...
