all well and good saying how your Phantom can't see anything whilst your DSLR can - what if someone is flying a drone with a DSLR (or more usually mirrorless cam such as the GH4/5 - they are classed as drones so the privacy can become a huge issue - it's almost impossible to make laws that apply...

As usual we are treated to another load of tosh from a marketeer with a product to sell. There is a risk of injury with every hand catch. There is zero risk of injury to you if you learn how t land properly. Learning how to land is an important part of learning to fly - they both come together :D

are you still waffling on about this even though you said you weren't interested? :D I'm out of this thread, nothing I've seen will change my opinion, the 'pixel peeping' you speak of was a challenge instigated by Russ so he clearly had an interest in it and that my comment that I could spot...

yet you continue to join in posting images for comparison and commenting on comparison images! Oh and has Russ has responded maybe he had more interest than you (or indeed than you thought he did) :D

you like the Mavic 2 Pro, that's great but in straight comparisons and unbiased reviews the P4P seems to offer better quality imagery, more modes, better frame rates etc etc etc. The question was who's planning on switching. Some of those that have switched already are happy, others are not and...

Thanks Russ - I did it on my laptop so 17" (calibrated) screen. I tried it on the 40" screen but the resolution of the original video wasn't high enough to make any difference. What makes the difference stand out for me is the details (particularly those where there is motion). Look at the...

no word from Russ - very weird :)

Yep. Photoshop attempts to align the layers and will counteract a bit of drift.

that's why you sometimes need to 'cheat' 5 stacked two second images are the same as a ten second exposure in terms of time. Stacking them using layers in photoshop alllows you to remove blurred areas if they are a problem - them image I posted earlier was effectively an 8 second exposure -...

still waiting for word on how we did deciphering the clips - I'm genuinely interested :D

yeah, it probably does because there are ways of achieving the result with up to about ten second exposures. My comment was because you hadn't been bothered to read what other people had said or considered their opinions yet obviously expected them to take heed of yours - kinda rude when you...

Portland Head Light - July 14 Version from Russell Schundler on Vimeo shows it at a much larger scale

OK. I had a go - out of interest...how did I do?

OK, this video seems way too small to offer any accurate guess but after viewing the vimeo file (link in page source) on my laptop .... I'll have a go Initital approach to lighthouse - P4P Second approach to lighthouse - Mavic vertical close up of lighthouse - Mavic flyby out to the water -...

nope but i regularly provide 4K video to clients who display their media on large screens. Just as an aside - when I first commented on the M2P saying 'don't fall for the badge' you added a pretty snarky comment about me being in a club of one - as the club seems to have grown in size with talks...
