I haven't heard of Photo Ninja, but it sounds like an interesting approach. It looks like both programs are about the same price $120. I only mentioned the trial because I'd feel bad if someone paid for a license and didn't like the program. Thanks for the tip on Photo Ninja!

The baked in lens profile isn't that great. I would suggest downloading the trial version of DXO PureRAW and give it try. It corrects distortion, vignetting, along with almost unbelievable sharpness optimization and noise reduction. I've been using it for the past 6-8 months and at this point...

Kudos to Gordon for writing his own music. Nicely done!

This the Middle Fork of the Feather River in Clio, CA. It is in Northern California north of Lake Tahoe at an elevation of 4,400 feet in a gorgeous high mountain valley.

Factually, China treats its workers much better than the US. Retirement age in China is 60 for men, 55 for women in white-collar jobs, and 50 for working-class women. They also enjoy very high quality retirement benefits. Another indicator of how they treat their citizens is exemplified by home...

I took a quick look at the manual for the controller, and you are correct, it doesn't look like they included the rotation lock button in settings. However, there is no doubt your screen rotated, so DJI didn't remove the rotation functionality, just the button. If it were me, I would try side...

You've probably already check this, but did you look to see if the rotation lock got enabled?

Nicely done, and kudos on composing your own music!

Spring has come early to Northern California. Just last week the oak trees were bare, and now they are putting out leaves like crazy! A storm moved through at sunset presenting a nice comparison between the departing storm and the coming spring.

I plan to pick up a 4 pro shortly after they come out. I'll watch and see what issues/successes others have, and then roll the dice and see what happens. If it gets held up in customs, I'll just get a refund and try a different method. Even if it takes a few tries, I figure I'll get it eventually.

I think this is one of the first FPV videos done in that tight indoor style and definitely a favorite. Everyone in the video was part of the production. The sound was inspired by the bowling alley scenes from the Big Lebowski. It took the pilot 3 or 4 takes (which is still some crazy good...

Fly be free!

The links don't work for me, but I understand the issue. I would suggest downloading DXO PureRAW 4 and use it to process your DNG file. You get a fully functional 14 day free trial. I was amazed with how effective the program is at removing noise and recovering details. It is an order of...

sans problem means without a problem :)

Make sure the cable is plugged into the actual USB port on the controller (right hand side on the top) and not the other "port" that is not an actual port and is only there to hold the phone end of the cable while not in use. ... and welcome to the forums!
