You don't see any Mavics because they've all been lost!

Auto-focus could be a nightmare, I agree. Pros and cons. But what about a shot starting close and then flying away? I mean I guess we'll have to see how the software and focus actually performs, but abrupt focus changes generally don't look that great. But again, speculation.

I'm interested to see just how large the depth of field is on this camera, because I'm skeptical that it will be very deep or that most people would want to get close enough to an object for it to make a meaningful difference. It may end up being a nuisance. But, if it has manual focus, then you...

I changed my mind, this is better.

It will be cumbersome to have both this sub-forum and the dedicated forum running. I think it should be separated, just as the Inspire is now. Follow the format of what's already established. Think shutting down this sub-forum and posting a link to the new forum at the top is a decent idea?

I would love to shoot some local drift and racing events, but the season is basically over by the time I get the drone. Some automotive stuff would be cool though. Also heading to South Korea shortly, so I'll mountain bike up a couple mountains and launch from there. Or, ya know, whatever else.

I can get to that site and see the captcha. I cleared the cache in Chrome, no changes. Also tried it in IE, got the same thing. Might be something here at work, I'll just do it when I get home.

I couldn't register, wouldn't display correctly for me and couldn't see the Captcha. Using Chrome. But once that gets fixed, awesome! Update: now the homepage isn't displaying right either. Just all text.

Is the battery the only thing you have to worry about? Does the gimbal function well below freezing temperatures? Do you guys plan on flying when it's that cold?

I would hope so too, I was just disappointed with the fine print in my own situation. Just be aware of the limits is all I'm saying.

You may want to read the fine print on that DJI Care plan. I know that if I bought it here in the US, they wouldn't uphold it when I move to a different country. Just gone, period. The original warranty would still be upheld in a different country, but I would have to ship the drone back to the...

You can throw me on there, I ordered on October 7th from B&H Photo Video. Got the Fly More combo if that makes any difference here.

Adobe is great software. Not super cheap, but not super expensive either. Premiere Elements is good for $100, or you can get the CC of that or Premiere Pro.

Where do you guys typically fly? I just pre-ordered a Mavic, and want to get out there. I'm in NW San Antonio. Might even come out and watch once or twice, will probably be a good month or more before I finally get the Mavic. Any good shops or clubs here? Any regular meetings?

I mean most companies generally fulfill direct orders first. And based on replies between your post and this one, seems like that's still the case.
