This is why I've been using 2.7k for video. In case I want to have some good slow motion, 60fps is handy. Plus, I doubt most people, if any can actually tell the difference between a 2.7k and a 4k video. I'm sure I could do just fine using 1080p and an even higher frame rate but I'm a tech...

What did you take these images with? Which drone, I mean? Any special camera settings? VERY nice images!

Are you in an "authorization zone?" If so, I've had to tap the "take off" button on the controller so that it takes me to a couple of pop up windows that allow me to get and then enter an "authorization code." Might that be your issue?

That's pretty interesting. I had wondered about adding to my Mavic 2 Zoom so I could have thermal capacity for surveillance on property, etc. and then they announced this enterprise dual version. lol

Nice video. Congratulations on your wedding. Beautiful scenery as well. Welcome to the forum! As you've no doubt noticed there are a number of highly 'testy' individuals here but there are lots of friendly and helpful people as well. Take care!

Unfortunately, that area where you check boxes and get the "authorization code" isn't actually official. It's pretty much just backside covering on the part of DJI. Doesn't remove your requirement to notify the airports, etc. Confusing, but it is what it is. Maybe try talking to the airport...

I did as I live just outside of an airport's landing corridor but still in a "warning zone" that needs authorization before I take off. I called their main contact number and got put in touch with their controller and "drone person." that person directed me to an FAA website that shows allow...

I think that's a great video. Really great regardless of it being "first time" or not! I didn't have as nice of a setup for my first one.

Is there an app or website that will show the windspeed at various altitudes above the ground? For example..it says wind is 1.5mph on the ground but at 500ft the wind is 16mph?

You sound like me, I've had my Mavic 2 Zoom for about a month now. I was initially more concerned with those crash videos as well and I've been SUPER cautious and conservative with how I'm flying so far, especially in the city. But I've noticed a few things in common with most of those videos...

So has anyone gotten a definitive answer on this yet? I'm curious as well. In a lot of ways it makes practical sense to break the files into 4GB segments. I suppose even for "professional" use that's ok. Still just seems a little odd not to have the option at least to change?

My local airport contact gave me this nice website and recommended that I keep it open and available when I fly "just in case" the police come asking questions because of a call or on their own. He flies drones as well. Nice of him to recommend this. I haven't had any issues yet, but then I'm...

So that would mean the same effect basically as if it recorded "normally" at 120fps and then you slowed it down post, right? If so, I should be good. My thought process was that while I'd normally like to record at 4k, 2.7k is probably more than high enough resolution and at 60fps I then have...

Well, is it just automatically slow? I picked the 2.4k option at 60fps so I could slow down the video later if I wanted. Am I missing something or is that a viable option as well? I assume you could record at 120fps in "normal speed mode" so to speak then then slow down the video where you...

Got it. Done! Thanks again!
