Mavic 4 - Canyon

[Mountains]

Just got back from this location (44°13'15"N 15°36'57"E).
What a spot! I came out here to do a long-range test, but the wind kicked in again... 12 hours of travel down the drain…

Honestly, it’s way harder to grab good shots than on mountains (I didn’t expect that...). Canyons feel tight, light’s tricky, and drones have less room to move.
Mountains just let you roam and capture epic views.

But hopefully I still managed to bring the location to your screen. Shot with a 1/4 mist filter - and yep, I’m definitely done using that filter.

Since you've posted under Video Critique I assume you expect some CC?
I'd say great effort but to me this is a good example where the 28mm lens on M4P makes most of the shots look constrained and lacking depth and gradeaur this location no doubt deserves. Challenging light but you've dealt with that aspect pretty well, IMHO Thanks for bringing it to us who will likely never get there on foot.

It's quite rare to fly in a situation where the drone is so constrained that it can't be flown back to include more of the scene.
In this case, the lens isn't causing what you consider to be a fault, it's where the flyer chose to put the camera.

It is the perspective of the 28mm lens not where the flyer put the camera what's creating the perception of the shots lacking depth. The wider the lens thus more encompassing, especially in constrained spaces like this, the more dramatic the shots are which I thing would be beneficial here. That is what I was trying to say.
