    ND Filter set recommendations for DJI Mini 4 Pro

    Interesting. Am I right in assuming that 32 - stop 5 (cloudy day) and 64 - stop 6 (sunny day) are the ones you'd use most of the time? In which case it's a bit frustrating that they didn't instead create a variable filter from 3-7 so you could just have the one. Assuming that it's technically...

    ND Filter set recommendations for DJI Mini 4 Pro

    Thanks for the replies. I appreciate the basic benefits of the ND filters. I remember the first versions of Star Wars games for the PC which included motion blur and they looked way better for it. With the Freewell set having polarising versions of the same ND filters, I'm wondering whether...

    ND Filter set recommendations for DJI Mini 4 Pro

    I've searched for reviews of the DJI filter set https://dji-retail.co.uk/products/startrc-camera-lens-cpl-uv-nd-filters-set-for-dji-mini-4-pro but the majority of Mini 4 Pro filter set reviews on YouTube are from November of the Freewell set when they sent sponsored a bunch of videographers...

    DJI Mini 4 Pro losing subject in Active Track Auto mode - I think there is a pattern to it

    I want it to follow us on holiday walks. It wouldn't be quite as appropriate to wear a high vis jacket :)

    DJI Mini 4 Pro losing subject in Active Track Auto mode - I think there is a pattern to it

    Hello folks, I've been doing some testing of Active Track Auto with my new Mini 4 Pro and in this video, I show when it lost the subject four times. I think there is a pattern to it. What do you think?

    Video looks overexposed in Windows Media player. It's fine in VLC

    Is that appropriate for converting from HLG to Rec.709? When I use it, the exposure looks good, but the footage is still quite over saturated.

    Yes, thanks. I've used Premiere Pro regularly for more than a decade, but I'm still guessing when it comes to colour correction or grading (I don't know the difference).

    Video looks overexposed in Windows Media player. It's fine in VLC

    Ok so this is strange. I opened the videos in Premiere Pro and the exposure is fine. So I opened them in VLC media player and they are fine. It's only in Windows media player that the exposure is balked. I have edited the thread title to reflect the real problem.

    Maybe it’s a UK phrase. It means using something seriously or properly.

    Video looks overexposed in Windows Media player. It's fine in VLC

    Thanks, all. I was under the impression that HLG will get the best 10bit results without having to grade. I don’t mind using Normal, but when I’m using this in anger, somewhere beautiful for one-off moments, I want to capture with the best possible settings.

    Video looks overexposed in Windows Media player. It's fine in VLC

    Hello folks, my first flight with my brand, spanking new Mini Pro 4 and when played in Windows Media player, some of the videos I shot are overexposed. Some are ok. VLC media player and Adobe Premiere Pro play the videos just fine. [thread title and this post edited to reflect the real...
