    Does the PolarPro Cinema Grip System for Mavic work on Mavic 2?

    That's exactly what I was looking for - also if it's 1CM wider is it even worse when it's folded up?

    Does the PolarPro Cinema Grip System for Mavic work on Mavic 2?

    Nobody makes this for the Mavic 2 yet but looking at the design it doesn't seem to be so specific that you couldn't use it on the Mavic 2 instead of the Mavic 2. Does anyone know if this works or if anyone has both mavics and this accessory could you try it? Here is the item - PolarPro Katana...

    1080 Good Enough?

    2.7k is 'half way' between 4k and 1080p - going to 60fps doubles the size (double the frame-rate) but the computer can still handle it since it's just more frames. Shooting in 4k or 2.7k 60fps and rendering down to 1080 for youtube or other sharing is the same result in my opinion. I shot...

    1080 Good Enough?

    4k is useless to me - the files are too big, you need a super-computer to edit them, etc, etc. I like to shoot in 2.7k (60 fps if there is lots of motion or if I want to slow it down some) and then render (save it) as 1080p - that way my originals look great and the rendered file seems to be...

    No 4k 60fps??

    2.7K at 60FPS looks great. I've really enjoyed shooting at that rate/resolution and my computer enjoys not editing 4k footage even more! :)

    Some Mavic 2 Pro Footage

    This was shot on a REALLY bright day over the weekend. White balance set to sunny and all other video settings set to auto. The edit was strictly cuts with no color correction or anything like that. I'm really happy with the quality. Shot at 2.7k 60fps, rendered with Sony Vegas Pro 13 to...

    HYPERLAPSE with MAVIC

    This might be a total waste of time but it's a 7 second Hyperlapse I took the other night - it's so short it often doesn't kick up to good quality before it's over so probably have to manually adjust youtube quality when viewing.

    Happy to have my Mavic 2 Pro!

    Another positive thing I am going to get a LOT of use out of - the ability to look "Up" with the camera! I hated getting props int he videos occasionally on the original MP and it happened a lot on the P4 models.

    Happy to have my Mavic 2 Pro!

    The 'day early' thing is based on what the tracking number said about 12 hours after it was emailed to me. I bought it at launch about 1/2 way through the broadcast and the next morning it said it would be here (Cleveland, Ohio) Today at 10am est. Then it showed up yesterday.

    Happy to have my Mavic 2 Pro!

    I got my Mavic 2 Pro yesterday, like many others, a day early. The build quality seems great, the activation process was as smooth as ever (quicker than even the P4P V2) and there was almost no 'guesswork' involved. I purposely did not read any manuals or anything as this is probably my 6th or...

    Shipped Orders

    I have no proof of this but my hunch is that they are already stateside but in sort of a pre-ship status - since FedEX has the originating location as Shenzhen it still appears as if they are in China. Kind of like when you ship something USPS and sometimes the tracking doesn't update until 8...

    Shipped Orders

    Add me to the early club - just got a text from my wife that she just signed for it. I will not leave work early, I will not leave work early, I will not leave work early, I will not leave work early, I will not leave work early.

    Infuriated over the focus settings

    If I get a bad answer from DJI on the refresh stuff I may make a call to Amazon and see if they can find a way to get me a replacement Mavic ASAP. We spend tons of money with them every month as we now get a lot of our groceries and stuff from them too. I might even ask them if they can refund...

    Infuriated over the focus settings

    I'm boxing it back up now and I'm going to send it back tomorrow. This really sucks because the whole reason I ordred it in the first place was it was quite the paradigm shift from the Phantoms. When the P4 Pro gets here tomorrow I'm going to open it up and the FIRST thing i'm gonna do is try...

    Infuriated over the focus settings

    Tried this - It really did seem to reset the camera in a good way but it never 'changed focus' before, during or after the change.
