Thanks- the official site suggests that my existing EU registration should be sufficient... I think.

Looking for advice on Austria with my Mavic Air 2 - this site: Drone Laws in Austria [Updated April 14, 2022] suggests that to fly anything with a camera you need to apply for a permit from the authorities at a cost of €300 or so... but it's not clear, as further down it refers to the usual...

Last weekend we had a bit more fog so I shot this image of the cathedral as it began to lift. I couldn't get a colour balance I was happy with, so converted it to mono and really like the end result- feels like it could have been a photo from 100 years ago.

Thanks! I'd only been flying 3 or 4 hours at this point so I'm sure you can achieve similar results. Just keep your movements slow and deliberate, and keep retrying if it's not quite right (for the ones where I tilt down as I fly over the waterfall I had to repeat it about 5 times until it was...

Yeah, I'd agree with slup - in the case of the Air2 vs Mini2, the difference in technology will be about 5% of the end result. For cinematic looking film, there's a bunch of stuff that's more important and applies to both drones: - choice of exposure - choice of framerate - type of maneuvers...

Yeah, I have the flymore so 2 weren't in the drone when I updated... Having tried both, neither prompted to update...

Yeah, that's what usually happens, but didn't this time... Oh well, maybe they'll ask tomorrow :)

Anyone else find this firmware didn't prompt to update their other batteries?

Probably worth a suggestion- I have a contact there for a lot of my photography, not thought of inside flying though...

I was about to post on this topic- I signed up to do the A2CofC a while back with a well known provider and saw their post about the updated regulations on their site last week... And I was also confused- as there's a form to fill in with a note for each flight, as well as uploading logs. Since...

It depends... Here in the UK I use a service similar to Flightradar which shows military. Some military aircraft show up (mainly tankers, C130s etc) but fighter jets like the USAF F15s and our F35s often don't show up, even when MLAT'd as they use a different type of system. Short answer (at...

I must be going blind as I couldn't see any difference in the clips and I'm not sure what jitter you're referring to!

Late to the party, but gorgeous shots!

It's just one of the tracks in the YouTube music library, specifically "Amber" by VYEN

I would agree that the ND probably isn't the problem here- the ISO didn't increase to compensate, shutter speed did, which means your exposure is fine. I'd say the image is a little underexposed- if I drop the JPG you posted in your first shot into LR the histogram is pretty central - you could...
