    Should we really use manual exposure settings?

    How to do that? - When the exposure is on auto, the right wheel control exposure compensation: +/- EV. - When the exposure is on Manual, the right wheel control shutter speed. Can I lock the shutter speed to 1/60 for example, and use the right wheel to control ISO to adjust exposure? I want...

    Should we really use manual exposure settings?

    It has always been suggested to use manual exposure settings in shooting footage in order to have full control of shuttle speed (2 x frame rate) and light. But it has never really worked well for me as the lighting changes dramatically in a typical flight. I am not sure how practical is it to...

    Litchi - how to create a safe mission

    Great topic. Have you had to deal with an area that the terrain is not flat? I have to deal that in my area because I live in a very hilly area. This could be tricky when you setup the attitude of each waypoint as you have to fact in the attitude of each point. Google Earth is really a great...

    Thanks for the tip. I am using Adobe Premiere Pro. Is its performance not as good as Final Cut? I don't want to start a new program.

    iMac

    I am in the market for an iMac with 27in 5K Monitor. Is it powerful enough to edit and playback 4k video? What configuration should I get if my budget is only $2500. The current iMac is about a few years old, new iMac will be released in spring. Should I wait for the new release? Sorry for the...

    Flying with line of sight

    I have always been curious as how realistic to follow the rule (Line of Sight) in a real world. If I have spotter with me, sure that can be done. But most of the time, I am out there all by myself. I have to admit that I lose my line of sight almost every time. How many of you was able to follow...

    Litchi Waypoint has focus bug

    Re-focusing during a mission will not work well with the App at this current version. When you tap to focus during a mission, one of two things will happen: 1) it will just not be able to focus at as I described in my original post, 2) it will cause a vibration in the footage. This is something...

    Litchi Waypoint has focus bug

    I noticed that you tap to focus before the mission starts, which seems to work fine. The issue that I ran into is to perform a focus in the middle of a waypoint mission. The issue does not always reproducible. But once it happens, you won't be able to get focus at all for the entire mission. It...

    Litchi Waypoint has focus bug

    Generally speaking, it is a good idea to lock on a focus before a mission starts. But sometimes, you may need to re-focus again if an object's distance has changed significantly. This is what you may get into trouble. There are definitely bugs with the waypoint focusing that they need to fix. I...

    Litchi Waypoint has focus bug

    I did more tests on it. The focusing issue is not behaving consistently. Every time I tap to focus, it causes a vibration to the footage, very annoying. The simplest way to fix the issue is that whenever the record button is pressed, it should automatically perform a focus. I was trying to find...
