That makes sense to me.

I hear a rumor that, as I understand it, if you fly as a hobbyist and take a photo which you later provide to someone for commercial use, that you are in violation. That is, you need a UAS license and operate as a commercial enterprise to do this.

I'd rather have Google involved than Microsoft. They both have our info anyway, so why worry?

My manual (v1.6) says flight data gets recorded to the "internal storage of the aircraft". Which would make sense to me. However, I don't find it there. I find it on the (Android) phone within the DJI Go4 app, from the pull-down menu (upper right) "Flight Data".

I said some pilots have suggested that they get better photos with ND filters. That's all I said. I stand by the statement.

As noted previously, digital zoom gives you nothing that you can't accomplish in post-processing. The term should be banned!

4wd: A "screen recording" I would think would be recorded to my Photos Gallery. Dragonfly: thanks, I'll check my settings.

Several pilots have suggested that they get better photos using ND filters. I also use a Circular Polarizer filter. Having tried both, I think the CP provides better photos.

I took a few photos (nothing important) with the microSD card removed from the Mavic. I expected that since the photos were normally copied to the phone (albeit in lower resolution), that they would be there even when the SD card was not installed. I was fortunate to learn (when the photos were...

And did the hawk come out OK, or get nicked by a propeller?

I'm no expert, but I like your color grading.

There are times when the additional flying time can make a difference. Thanks for sharing your photos, and your results.

nice pix on first flight. how did you ever stand it to wait so long???

That makes sense. But I was wondering if someone had come up with a remote release mechanism.

I'm not a video pro. Maybe one will weigh in. I might try a bit shorter shutter speed and/or try a different white balance number. Or maybe a ND filter, if you aren't using one. I have seen one of the pros say the AWB does not work well.
