Best camera settings for mavic pro?

And one more thing. I have been going to Mexico for 30 years , North and South and East and West. Climbed every pyramid. Never never will I go to Mexico again Never . Its just too dangerous. Their is a kidnapping every hour in latin america. Only 70% return alive.
Bruh, You need to relax. You are making it sound like hell, which it is not. I understand the police can be sketchy, but I feel as if though you are over dramatizing this. We are staying inside a resort area the entire time and going to isla mujeres for one day. Thanks for the heads up though, I shall be careful.

You've obviously never been to Mexico. Lol

What he's saying is correct and you should take heed.

Now back OT.

This is the first time on this thread I've heard such horrors. My brother was just down in Mexico and said he saw drones all over the place. Their are hardly any laws with flying drones and I will not fly over people. What are you saying the major issue is with bringing a drone?
 
Plenty of the video's on best settings are with older firmware, are these settings still valid or has the consensus changed with the newer firmware?

I don't think we're talking about drones in particular when we say be careful in Mexico. The LAST thing you want is to be in jail for ANYTHING in Mexico.

Oh I understand. Yea I think were pretty secluded in our resort area. We are only leaving once to go to isla mujeres and I doubt that is sketchy as it's an island.
 
I have a Dell XPS with an i5 processor running Adobe Premier Pro and I really can't use 4K. It depends on what you mean by "editing".

My system will play back 4K in real time just fine and cut shots together and export, no problem, but It cannot efficiently manipulate the footage in faster than real time. Also, it can take a day or more to upload depending on the length of the piece.

Editing, at least the way I learned to do it, involves shuttling and sampling and playing both forward and backward in other than real time in order to quickly review and mark the right frame. The editor will simply not do any of that for more than 10 seconds at a time making 4K too cumbersome, too time consuming and too much like lower easier resolutions in final viewing to be worth the trouble, unless a client requires it, of course.

I agree with wytnyt. Old and tired or not, only the eyes of a trained videophile would know how to discern the difference between any HD and 4K. The vast majority of viewers will see only the content given proper exposure.

Am I hearing that additional RAM could help with that, or must one have an i7?

More RAM would probably not help with that mate.
Scrubbing like that is cpu & gpu intensive and you would probably need a faster dedicated video card with plenty of vram. An i7 with faster clock, hyper threading and larger cache wouldn't hurt.
