    Best fstop settings for distance shots?

    Hey guys, I've recently found that f5.6, 4k 24fps/50 shutter has left my videos quite soft. I've read an article saying that f2.8 at 2.7k produces the sharpest video. I was wondering what everyone uses for open even focus sharp footage I.e. Long distance focus with everything sharp. What...

    *Help please* Buying a new iMac to edit P4P 4k 60fps

    I've started to make proxies in FCPX which transcodes to prores. This enables me to edit reasonably smoothly on my old mac. Is there any advantage to using DJI transcoding tool rather than let FCPX handle it? Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    *Help please* Buying a new iMac to edit P4P 4k 60fps

    Of course the best performance is with SSD [emoji6][emoji4] When you say, it seems it is not enough. Can you please elaborate as to what it is not enough for. Thanks [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Thanks for pointing this out. The Kaby Lake cpu is very tempting to wait for but I've been reading that may be sometime in 2018? Not sure I can wait that long Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Thanks for your advice. So you honestly don't think 128gb of flash is enough? Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    *Help please* Buying a new iMac to edit P4P 4k 60fps

    Hi everyone! Happy New Year! I need some help please. My old iMac (2010) model is really struggling to edit 4k video in FCPX and won't even run Davinci Resolve or Colour Finale. So... I've decided to bite the bullet and get a new one. I've done a fair bit of research but I want some of your...

    Peak Focus Threshold

    What to buy to use as a screen on my P4P?

    I'm using an iPad Pro 9.7 and love it. Non cellular, hotspot for map data before I take off and then switch hotspot off. I can't recommend it enough. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Wanting to film/fly P4P indoors. Advice please.

    Thanks BryanB! That was a great video. I learned a lot from it and have now subscribed to Tom's channel on Youtube. I didn't think to switch my RTH to hover and use ATTI mode. I'm very glad I didn't get a GPS lock kicking in mid flight, which would have made it correct itself (into a wall) or...
