    Recent shot featured by Nat Geo YourShot I took on P4Pro

    On a side note. I generally use AEB 3 shot mode capturing 3 raws to balance out the sky and the foreground. I find I can get less noise that way

    What is your Ideal "prime" lens for Phantoms/Mavics?!

    So over the years I have had 5 drones or so with various cameras, and I was thinking about this as I am reading about the new rumors about the potential new Mavic that DJi could announce next week. Im currently on a P4 Pro. After having all the other phantoms as well as an Inspire 1 pro (that...

    p4pro owner looking to do a project, advice on ideal settings for capturing

    I have had plenty of luck doing photos with my P4 pro since I bought it when it first came out. It's been great for that. Ive been tinkering around with video/timelapses on my Nikon D850 , and I decided I would like to try doing a video montage of my home province of Saskatchewan. However, I...

    My experience with DJI warranty...

    Can someone comment if these battery values would have caused this crash?!?

    Dropped like a stone from the sky.....

    Honestly..... No. The reason I state that is because I never rolled off to any side. I literally just pressed to go STRAIGHT up, so without the unit tilting it would have had to have magically slid out. No one is perfect and stuff happens, but I really dont think that was the issue.

    My experience with DJI warranty...

    I have a post in another thread, but long story short. P4 Pro. Under warranty, obviously less then a year old. Bought two batteries for it. Drone had VERY limited usage (battery had around 10 charges) It will cost me roughly 500$ cdn just to get it back and flying again. No one contacted...

    Dropped like a stone from the sky.....

    *sigh* Battery died. It was essentially a new battery with roughly 10 charges on it. So I now pay 235$ usd plus I have to buy a new capacity battery. So this will come out to around 500$ cdn for me to fix. Here is the quote I got back from DJI repair. I feel like it's a slap to the face...

    Dropped like a stone from the sky.....

    Yes, November 2016. IT literally was just going straight up and landed 5 feet away from where it took off after being 60 feet in the sky. It was sunny and I was watching my screen. I just saw "tumbling" and chaos. But couldn't tell if it was one motor out or not. After reading threads and...

    Dropped like a stone from the sky.....

    Bought my P4 Pro in November this year, first day it was announced. I have owned a P3. An Inspire X1, and now a Phantom 4 Pro. This was my first ever crash. Fully charged battery. Props stayed on. I took off from the ground in an open area and at about 60 feet it just dropped. What a sick...

    That small little female USB to male MICRO. It MAGICALLY fell out of my kit and Ive torn everythign apart looking for it. One problem, there are NONE that I can find on the website, and I learned that OTG cables do NOT work for the update. My bird is currently bricked because I had a cable...

    Question about Gimbal....

    Question about Gimbal....

    Hey guys. Had the P4 Pro now for a few days. Its cold here in Canada but I have taken a few cool shots with it. The camera is a BIG improvement over my P3, and I compared it to some of my Inspire Pro shots and Im more then happy with the quality (I sold the X5 a while back) Anyhow, just a...
