Attempt #6 at the long-range drone test & long-range dreams & mountain realities...

Thanks so much for the honest feedback! I’m glad the high mountain scenes in the last third made an impact; that was exactly the feeling I wanted to capture. I totally agree that the beginning could use something more melodic, and trimming the repeated shots would definitely help tighten...

Feel free to be brutally honest... I’m trying to learn and improve. Thanks!

yeah, good eye, man. I’ve thought about that too, but luckily that shelter is way out there... you’ve got to hike for a few hours just to reach it, and then another couple of hours to get to the top. Anyone from that kind of crowd would probably get lost or give up long before making it that...

Man, you really hit me right in the soul. This is one of my favorite movies ever. I’ve watched it at least 5 to 10 times in my 53 years. Yeah, that music would be perfect as the background, but sadly, copyright. I picked the soundtrack I used to give a motivational feel because the goal of this...

Thanks a lot! :) The cabin is "Drago Grubač" mountain shelter (44°02'36"N 16°23'13"E), built by volunteers from the "Dinaridi" Mountaineering Association with help from the Croatian Air Force. It’s a hikers’ refuge on Dinara. The shelter can accommodate about 20 hikers, has a wood stove, a...

Thanks for your reply. Best regards.

Haha, nah, it just looks a lot more dangerous than it really is. I’ve done a ton of hiking and never lost my balance. And yeah, totally agree with you about having a good "partner” for solo hikes... it does the job perfectly. This clip’s from before the firmware update to v01.00.0200 though...

Feel free to be brutally honest... I’m trying to learn and improve. Thanks!

Thanks so much! I’m still learning as I go, so it really means a lot that you and your wife enjoyed it. More drone hikes coming soon!

Thank you sir!

yeah, I actually tried that dual ISO trick in d-Log m with auto ISO. It definitely helps shadows and high-contrast scenes look cleaner compared to locking ISO, so I can see why people like it. But to me it still feels more baked-in than shooting straight D-log. With full d-log I get a flatter...

yeah, I get it; 28mm does feel kind of tight in this scene, but honestly, I like it more than 24mm because it just feels more cinematic, more "intimate". 24mm gives off that action-cam kind of look. (But yeah, for this setting, 24mm would probably work better) Most of the time I’m flying in...

I filmed two videos during golden hour, and to be honest, I wasn’t really happy with the results. You can check them out if you’d like and see what you think. For this video, I used a mist filter even though it’s not really meant for daytime, I just wanted to try it out. The footage came out...

Just got back from this location (44°13'15"N 15°36'57"E). What a spot! I came out here to do a long-range test, but the wind kicked in again... 12 hours of travel down the drain… Honestly, it’s way harder to grab good shots than on mountains (I didn’t expect that...). Canyons feel tight...
