Raw footage from my MPP this morning. At some point, I panned toward the sun rise. As I was panning toward it, I saw this green dot on my iPhone come across the screen and then when I watched my video, the green dot is there. I didn't have any filters on or anything. (the attached file was saved low quality to keep file size down)

It's a "lens flare" ... Found this description: Green dot on photos when taking photo facing the sun

Gimbal cover on? A speck of dust on the lens?

Fat Bastard: Yep -- I just found this explanation as well on the interweb, lol. Thanks for the quick response!

Nah, I never fly with gimbal cover on. It's the "lens flare" thing. And I wasn't planning on shooting sunrise, so I didn't have a filter on, which probably would have helped.

I've seen a small cluster of them in some of my footage (about 3)
I use ND filters
