    New stuff. Sugestions and criticism welcom

    I think the ND128 was a little too much... in fact, I don't think I would have used an ND filter at all, especially on what looked like a very dull day. I would have tried to have kept the ISO as low as possible, and used aperture & shutter speed to get the right exposure... and Ricks ideas...

    New stuff. Sugestions and criticism welcom

    I agree entirely with your 2 points, which is why I tweaked the images just very slightly. I got the sky to what I imagined it looked like on the day (dull & overcast).... could have got it up more, but I think it would have spoiled the image.....

    New stuff. Sugestions and criticism welcom

    Great photos, and the viewing is in the eye of the beholder.... here are some tweaks on exposure and getting the sky back a little... This is not to say that the originals weren't great!

    Experimenting with nd filters

    I would still keep the zebra setting ON... its OK to have a few stripes, but focus more on the histogram. Unless you want a particular effect, I would drop the ND filters for stills and lower light situations. I agree with what Meta said re the ND filters. And like 25Vettes, I too spent a few...

    Do you record from launch to recovery, or just when you need the video?

    Same here... I use the camera only when necessary. I prefer to conserve battery life

    Experimenting with nd filters

    Love the place.... I have relatives who live in Killough, and I learned to drive on Tyrella beach..... but back to your picture. Images are very personal, and people look at them differently... what one person likes, another may not. I'm not sure I would have used an ND filter at all, since...

    The Drone (2019) Movie - DJI Phantom gone rogue

    Perhaps Master Airscrew have upgraded their props for the Phantom..... Can't wait for the M2P release of these things

    Dronelink is released!

    Ditto to everything written in previous posts. I hope to do commercial work, and would be happy to pay an annual subscription if I got work.... This will help a lot of people become familiar with this app, and pay for it once the work comes in.... Great job Dronelink!

    first real flight of my MVP2 today over local forest

    I use Premiere Pro, but I think DaVinci is quite good, and the free version may be all you need.

    first real flight of my MVP2 today over local forest

    Great 1st vid!! Well done. I can see a tiny bit of stutter, but not in all clips... Sometimes the stutter is in a panning clip (which often happens unless the panning is very slow). But on some other clips, going straight forward, I see a little stutter (which wouldn't be expected flying...

    Dronelink is released!

    Dronelink looks great, but I totally agree..... $100.00 (~$150 Australian) , is way too much for a hobbyist like me. The existing flight apps currently do it all for me, even though they may not be as good as Dronelink. If Dronelink cost less, I would certainly go for it, but as it is, I...

    Natural or Color Edit ?

    Natural..... To my eye, the Color is a little too saturated.

    Update Firmware on Multiple Batteries

    Same here... updated everything with Assistant for Mavic, good internet connection.... The currently installed battery updated OK. I then changed the batteries (#2 & #3), and there was NO update message... although the discharge days had changed to 5 in each case, so the battery firmware has...

    New Firmware for DJI Mavic 2 series ( Official M2P Firmware Update Thread )

    Then it must be MY individual M2P.... the numbers in my attachment are categorical.... Immediately before the update, and immediately after, from exactly the same take-off spot, and all other settings exactly the same before and after. As I said in my post... it is MUCH better now, but not...
