It's such a difficult situation to offer advice on because it's all so unpredictable and it can change so quickly, it may be the situation improves and the costs come back down to what they were and DJI sell the drones as normal...or the 145% tariff could return and DJI choose not to sell...

Leica have also announced new pricing for the US after raising prices for the tariffs between 75% and 90%, the new reduced values are around 20% higher than the original selling price...

I think that was a limit in the past but not any more, the free version is limited to 4K60. In terms of what resolution to use, I use a 1440p monitor but I export at either 4K or 1080p because they're more standard video resolutions and widely supported across most devices whereas 1440p and...

You must be one of the first people on the forum with the drone, would be good to hear your thoughts on a first impressions thread or similar.

Sounds like it's clearcut this isn't the drone for you then.

With the 1in, APS-C and FF sensors all using a 3:2 aspect ratio it's what I'm used to for photography for a while now.

It was quite a surprise to me when I saw an article on here mentioning the sensor was 3:2 and I wondered if it was an error since the other larger sensors are all 3:2 but the sensor clearly is 3:2

That's certainly the case with many companies in the UK, I think Apple were one of the few exceptions (at least they used to be) and if I was buying a grey import (non UK stock) I'd assume there's no official warranty with it.

Due to the value of the item, I believe that import taxes will need to be paid on the item even though it's a gift - Fedex explain it on this page: https://www.fedex.com/en-ca/shipping-services/international/regulatory/tips-for-gift-shipments.html When you ship the item you'll need to give...

This was mentioned over on DPR, it's a camera system attachment Xiaomi were showing which uses a 100MB 4/3 quad bayer sensor: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_modular_optical_system_concept_handson-news-66797.php I can't find any sample images from it though as I'm curious if it's also 3:2

The sensor is 3:2 not 4:3 which is confirmed by the image dimensions you've posted. The 4/3 in the name of the sensor refers to the size not the aspect ratio so although most four thirds sensors have had the 4:3 aspect ratio, they don't have to and Panasonic have released oversized versions...

I went to have a look at the DNG files but surprised to find my raw processor doesn't support them which I didn't think was possible with DNG files. Something that surprised me in the review was it says the sensor is 3:2 not 4:3, some of the Panasonic cameras have had oversized sensors but...

I think it's the same in the UK, the current fly more package for the Mavic 3 Pro is £2300 which I think they reduced recently from £2500 and I was surprised to see the Mavic 4 at £2500.

I've not seen any details on which sensor it is exactly and since it's a new one it's possibly not used elsewhere but I'm thinking it's probably fairly close to the Olympus OM-1 MKII/OM-3 sensor. This is a quad bayer 20MP 4/3 sensor (80MP total), DXOmark rate it slightly ahead for high iso and...

I've used all three with the Mavic 2 Pro and they each have their advantages and disadvantages although for me, my preference is the integrated controller. Though I live in Scotland where we rarely see the sun so viewability of the screen is not really an issue. The phone is the most portable...
