    2 Pro CLOSE Call with Seagulls!

    I want to hear/see your 'close calls'. It may have been 13 degrees F outside, but I WAS SWEATING! Just one little nudge and my M2P would have been lost to the freezing cold waters of Lake Michigan.

    Green Dot in My Video (the sun?)

    In the very first shot of this video I recently put together for the holiday, the Green Dot waltzes across the screen lol. This is with a Freewell ND4/PL on.

    3 Elf On the... Drone?!

    I don't think it would be close. The doll is made of cloth and stuffing, weighs almost nothing lol. I was getting an average of around 18 Minutes on a freshie. The M3 has been getting anywhere from 28-31 Minutes.

    3 Elf On the... Drone?!

    Took an elf on the shelf for a joyride on the Mavic 2 Pro around Battle Creek, Michigan and Recorded it with the Mavic 3. While Making this video I now remember why I upgraded to the Mavic 3... I still had more than 50% battery remaining on the M3 when The Mavic 2 Pro had to come down for low...

    Mavic 3 ND/PL Filters

    Hahaha I'm required to by law ;) That's why as soon as you click play on the video a message comes up that says "Includes Paid Promotion" hahaha! I also changed the title to better describe the depth of 'review' the viewer will receive.... "From a beginners view" Honestly though, Thanks again...

    Mavic 3 ND/PL Filters

    Hey, Thanks for the detailed response. Of course I'm still learning and the video was not intended to be a review from an expert. Freewell marketing emailed me and asked if I would make a video on their product if they sent it to me for free. Of course my response was, "Hell yeah free gear"...

    Mavic 3 ND/PL Filters

    Yeah, the dude in the video is a total idiot. I mean, did you see that part at 1:14? Also, What point do you think that he should have made? How do you think he could improve?

    Mavic 3 ND/PL Filters

    Hi Guys, I just finished this one up for anyone interested in ND Filters for the M3. I've got to admit, I did have a hard time getting a clear photo with any shutter speed over 2s. However these filters worked great for taking long exposure shots with the M3. Any advice for a beginner like me...

    3 Downtown Battle Creek, MI Night Flight Christmas Light Display 2021

    I Recently shot this video which showcases a sunset over a lake. Most of the work I've done so far has been shot on 'auto'. This is just to show what the camera can do without any camera knowledge. With this drone, I very rarely have to edit any color in post. If you didn't know, They have...

    3 Downtown Battle Creek, MI Night Flight Christmas Light Display 2021

    It really is, However I have seen in the most recent firmware update they decided to brighten the blacks, I personally like the way that it looks, super deep, I like my blacks to be black when flying at night. Hopefully they didn't increase the ISO to improve this and make it look grainy. Still...

    Its Incredible how much better the camera quality is on the Mavic 3 then the iPhone 13 Pro Max. I used the Mavic 3 for Aerial shots and used my iPhone 13 Pro Max on a DJI Osmo 3 Gimbal.

    Green Dot in My Video (the sun?)

    A black photograph is still a photograph. As it is still an image created by the sensor. Why so argumentative? Have a good night sir.

    Green Dot in My Video (the sun?)

    Ummm yeah… You cant have lens flare if no light enters the sensor. Lol. When was the last time you used an ND2000!? It was a joke. Honestly though, my guess would be The less light entering the lens, the less harsh the flare will be. Also the NDPL may reduce this effect. Lol if not I do know...
