    Did anyone respond? I’d like to know this as well.

    New iPad Mini, anyone upgraded?

    Was curious if anyone had tried out the new iPad Mini with their Mavic. I saw that the new one has about 90-100 more nits of brightness. Is it noticeable in sunny conditions?

    Tricks to takeoff from and land on a boat?

    You’ll have to hand launch and catch. Turn off the landing protection or whatever it’s called. It’ll screw with you trying to hand catch it. I highly recommend an assistant to help catch the drone, even in relatively calm conditions, it helps a ton. Buy some leather gloves if you’re worried...

    Magic 2 Pro vs Inspire 2

    I sold my Inspire 1 Pro because the M2P is superior in almost every respect. I used my I1P professionally for gigs domestically and internationally for over 3 years and it worked great, but the size and time to setup was always a drag. It requires more time, energy, and effort to use that bird...

    Sold my Inspire 1 Pro and couldn't be happier

    Touche' I do love the extra dynamic range. I compared the two cameras and found the X5 to clip highlights way earlier. It's an upgrade for sure. Matches my C200 much better.

    M2pro Sensor noise

    I just love how people want to hate on the M2P. I'm a commercial director and photographer and I literally make my living from videos and photos for major clients all over the world and I couldn't be happier with this little drone. It's a $1,300 toy and it does better work than my Inspire 1 Pro...

    Always HQ as I need the 10bit so the footage matches my C200 better. I have no need for FOV anyway, too wide.

    That's what I'm saying. If I need to chase an Audi across the desert at high speed, then I'll probably rent an Inspire2 with and X5s or X7, but for the majority of the work I do, the M2P is absolutely perfect.

    Good question, I really don't know. Even our location scout just said it's been there for years.

    DJI released the official DLog-M to Rec709 LUT!

    You need to import the lut into an editing software or color correction software and then apply it to the footage. Plenty of tutorials online, just search for how to apply a lut to footage.

    Sold my Inspire 1 Pro and couldn't be happier

    The day the specs came out for the M2P I was sold. It solved all the shortcomings I was having with the X5. The camera is far superior to the X5. Here's two raw files for you to play with: Dropbox - test.zip

    Does the class of Micro SD card matter?

    Sold my Inspire 1 Pro and couldn't be happier

    Ha, so true. I can't believe people are complaining about the M2P. I paid over $6,000 for my complete Inspire 1 Pro setup three years ago and I'm amazing what the M2P can do for $1,400.

    Sold my Inspire 1 Pro and couldn't be happier

    Thanks, man. The trip was great and I was able to capture so much more this time because this little drone is so proficient.

    At the time the X5 was state of the art and I loved it, but tech changes fast. The 20mp sensor on the M2P has a lot more resolution than the X5 for photos and video. The M2P bitrate, bit depth, and H.265 codec are superior to what the X5 can do and the results are easily distinguishable. The...
