Nice going Cody,

Only the 1080p 60fps doesn't look that crisp, they say it's for fpv goggles and not so much for normal filming.
The 2.7K 30fps seems to be the sweet spot for filming with the Mavic.

Cool and all but I can't wait until the day we don't have to stare at the controller every 2 seconds.

You can see in the first clip of the second video that I didn't look at all. It takes a while to build trust that it is going to do what it should.

Thanks! 1080/60 is 60 Mbps where 2.7/30 is 45. It's just that YouTube butchers the 1080/60, the source looks fantastic.

I shot some video in 4K 30 and 24 fps this weekend and everything that wasn't still or very slow panning looked very jumpy. Looking to try the 1080/60 next time I get a chance.

Have you tried all of the film modes/are you happiest with the 1080/60? The 4K video is a bit more crisp but the 1080 is noticeably smoother. Can you post the source of the 1080 video? Thanks

I think the panning is just too fast. I'm new at this video editing stuff.

It's not just utube, there are a lot of posts on this 1080p 60/96fps fenomena, the mass is not happy with the moir effect on things with stripes/lines etc.

Avoid using 1080p 60/96fps for shooting video as these modes are intended only for use with the DJI FPV Goggles, to be released at a later time/date.
When shooting video in 1080p at the frame-rate of either 60fps or 96fps, a moire/anti-alisasing effect can be seen on camera.
This is because of the way in which down-sample the signal by ‘simple averaging’, consequently these modes are unusable for shooting high quality footage.

DJI have released a PDF explaining the scenario and justification, this can be downloaded on the net.
