Only if you want motion blur like a speeding car or a waterfall. Having said that, conditions have to be really good to prevent camera shake from wind/drone movement.

She's running around naked outside and he's confronting people who see her......... Hmmmmmm..... Good neighbors to stay away from. I would gladly keep my drone and myself a good distance from them. I surely wouldn't post the event on social media. Let me know where this neighborhood is. I...

My experience with ProRes is meh. Many production houses use Final Cut Pro and ProRes is native to that NLE. ProRes does come in a number of different flavors. ProRes 4:4:4 is a form of raw that many cinematographers do like. I don't believe the Mavic provides this codec. I believe the...

Thank you, that's good to know. I do respectfully disagree in regard to ineptitude however. As you stated, "they just don't care to hear from you" constitutes ineptitude per my perspective. Couple that with a bill that bans a manufacturer and does not address the root problem they are...

Just forwarded the response to you. Good luck I guess. I've written government off. Nothing but corruption in my estimation.

I attempted to contact the Michigan supporter of this bill. Went to the contact page for him and filled out the form. Sent my message. In less than three minutes I got a response. This email is not supported. I should sign up for the congressman's newsletter. That says it all for me...

To me this is just another example of the inept nature of government. If it's controversial, ban it. The ban ban mentality has been prevalent for some time now. The only theory that supports these actions would be that to be elected one must cognitively impaired.

No idea here. Looks to be a rhythmic oscillation. Glad to hear it quit doing that!

I only know the "jello" effect as a rolling shutter effect while panning rapidly. It would be nice to see what you are calling "Jello".

If you wanted to have an intro of the drone starting up and or taking off you could record the prop "whir" to include in the intro. Live narration of the flight could be recorded. Ground background noises such as traffic, train movement, wildlife sounds can be a nice addition to a video. If...

This is a topic that can get quite "deep". There are many flavors of "raw", "log", and "hlg" as well as 4:2:0 bit. In the simplest of terms, RAW has the least processing done in camera, Log the next least, followed by HLG and finally 4:2:0 8 bit which is basically delivery ready. Log records...

Dude! That is a gorgeous shot for a night time shot. Everything is where it should be. Nothing clipping either black or white. Just a tiny boost in gamma and a bit of added saturation.

Not to diminish the value of using a lut, I find there is no need for one. Dlog-M is not like a RAW. I do obviously set the timeline perimeters to display rec.709 24 during grading but just a few minor tweaks does wonders for Dlog M and if you want to use the HDR controls in DR using the wide...

I'm really tempted to fire up OBS and do a quick tutorial on this. It really is not that difficult. I might just do that next week. HLG will do a pretty good job for you but you will just not get the control that dlog-m would give you. I use dlog M with my pocket 3 and quite frankly it...

I would not use a color space transform. I would however use DR managed color space, DR wide gamet intermediate and rec 709 2.4 final.
