I agree with this, and the new Mavic 4 can get you at max altitude (500M if less than 30 miles from an airport) in 50 seconds and a mile down range from that in one minute. With the longer battery life, that means a LOT more hang time on the subject which I really look forward to. I feel 20MP...

Something tells me I am going to get the DXO module update well before I get the darn drone.

I’m finding the files that Meta-4 uploaded to be much better than previous drones on the Mavic 4. Maybe not Zenmuse better, but certainly workable. The problem you describe of field curvature could very well be an issue they won’t be able to solve in such a tiny camera. I would take less center...

I got info from both a user and DJI that it is not exactly free across the board. For instance, let’s say I want to use the 168mm cam to make a large file that is equal to a 70mm or even a 28mm field of view, it would like choose those cameras instead of allowing a jumbo file size pano to be...

None, I batch process the component photos of the final photo in DXO and then use Lightroom to stitch the final file. Just so you are clear, that means I take a bunch of 12MP photos of portions of the landscape I am wanting and it then becomes anywhere from 200-300MP. Then I drag that massive...

I’m going to disagree with this, I shoot vertical photographs all the time with all my camera except for my square format Hasselblad film cameras. I think it is great move and likely came from talking with working pros vs Tik Tok influencers. And these extra cameras are a **huge** plus for me...

I got over my sample variation anger when I bought my Mavic 3 Cine after I went through 3 of them over the course of a month to get one with a centered lens. Then I got a good Mavic 3 Pro in the first one. So I am used to this game and as long as I can return them for a better one, I will keep...

I have not seen grey market Nikon at B&H for years, I don’t think that is a thing anymore, at least not on the site or app I view from in the U.S.

From the few samples I have played with that have a well centered camera, I think files from the 28mm camera will uprez to 50MP nicely in PS raw, never been a fan of Topaz’s output. 100MP does not look as good, it’s just a bit too much in my opinion. We all have to weigh our own wants and...

I proudly served in the Navy and had my last year during the Gulf War, received a medal of commendation for finding a crack in a tail rotor blade that was missed earlier that day while parked in the stack. The pilots and aircrew were sitting in the bird at night while on the deck on alert 5, had...

I just talked to a B&H rep and they are no longer taking pre-orders on any of the three Mavic 4 Pro drone kits they have listed. Two say "Notify When Available" and the Creator Combo says "Request Assistance". They are still accepting pre-orders on accessories for now though. I placed my...

B&H has stopped taking pre-orders at this point and of particular note, the Creator Combo has gone to "Request Assistance" in place of the pre-order or notify when in stock button. I placed my preorder pretty early on, so all I can do is wait and see what happens...?

I think until someone does a same subject / side by side test, it will be too subjective to be conclusive.

Can you check on something for me? Apparently there is a person on the DJI forum who says that even though he selects raw on the controller, he is still only getting jpegs when doing panos...

But to confirm, it is totally free form?
