    Mini 4 Pro North Carolina Mountain Morning | Mini 4 Pro

    Thanks - I also don't mind to run a slower shutter speed rather than risk missing the shot by bringing back the drone and removing a filter. I use NDs all the time with my traditional still photography well… mainly because the fixed aperture on the Mini 4 Pro is f/1.7….

    Mini 4 Pro North Carolina Mountain Morning | Mini 4 Pro

    I had been shooting video and the shutter speed wasn’t too slow for good photo quality. A difference of 1/400th or faster and 1/60th with the ND on. A lot of people say you don’t need ND filters for pictures, but I use them often because the f/1.7 aperture makes for a REALLY fast shutter speed...

    Mini 4 Pro North Carolina Mountain Morning | Mini 4 Pro

    Out on a big project shoot earlier this week, I was up on some high mountains and was treated to some amazing early morning views. This panorama was from my Mini 4 Pro, I did crop it a little from the sides. SOOC - no edits, shot using the Auto settings even. I did have the Freewell ND 8...

    DJI forces you to login or else you cannot fly your drone above 50ft and 50 ft away??? What?

    I’ve been logged out a number of times and it’s a pain in the backside when you fly in areas without cell service like I do quite often.

    ‘We had nothing to do with it’: Skydio CEO on DJI drone ban bill

    This is more examples of lunatic politics using scare tactics to tell constituents how “patriotic” they are with no real evidence of what they are claiming all to gain the approval of one narcissistic individual so they can score points and stay “relevant” in the eyes of their feckless leader.

    What Would You Do?

    I was not looking to “shame” anyone. There are a lot of people in this forum who have a lot more experience and knowledge about how to handle this than I have. But thanks for your concern.

    What Would You Do?

    100% there is no way to make this flight taking off from outside the park.

    What Would You Do?

    In my daily life, I work in marketing, advertising, Social Media, etc and every once in a while, I come across things like this video I will post below. It starts off nice, but within a short amount of time, I see there are some National Park NFZ flights happening. The most infuriating point...

    Flying lower than launch height - Possible?

    I do it all the time. Living in the mountains, I take off from high elevations and fly below my takeoff height with no issues in every mode of flight.

    Still Wonder What Could Have Been with a 1"Sensor

    Just a little Too Close for comfort

    I live in Franklin, NC and there’s a helicopter pilot who is well known for flying low and fast. I’ve actually been up with him on a photography project, this was about ten years ago. I asked him then what his floor was and he said he could go down to 100’ AGL even over downtown. We went up and...
