    INSURANCE

    I just lost my P3S that I had insured with SF for $60/yr. Hit a wire strung across the river and in it went. When I insured it last year, I took in my sales receipt of everything I bought which they put on the policy for the price I paid for them. I just received a check from them for drone...

    I'll certainly do that when I get ready to upgrade, thanks...

    I have a P3S using an iPad Air 2. There is just a slight lag which I hope is not the case going to one of the drones using Lightbridge or Occusync. I'm using a 24" HP ZR2440w for a monitor. It's been a great one but it's 5 years old and needs to be replaced this year. I'm thinking another 24"...

    That is really cool! Especially looking at it at 100%. Along with a new drone, looks like I'm gonna need a lot bigger monitor too...

    That is pretty cool looking all right! If I were you I'd open up the mid-tones a little. I haven't shot any little planets yet. I need to upgrade my drone...

    I was surprised when I was looking at it further, it's not a full frame camera. I saw photos of that bohunkus lens sitting on a 70D which is a crop camera...

    New guy question

    And then the next step is to get some video editing software to cut n clean. There's no end to the spending or learning :(

    Uh oh!

    If you're going to wreck, that's a good place to do it I guess...

    It's amazing to see how much you can zoom in and see so much detail. And shot on a 70D? Wow, I thought it would have been a full size sensor. I guess that would have made the file sizes even more ginormic...

    Great flying to show us a close-up look at this interesting structure. Can't say enough how nice it is to really see something fascinating like that close enough to tell what it looks like...

    Keeping your ISO at 100 like you did will help also. I shot the night pano at 200 and 400. The 400 was unusable, the 200 made it noisy. From photography days, they always said to expose to the right, so I try to keep the histogram just to the right of the middle...

    From my perspective they look a little underexposed for processing in HDR. I have a P3S and it does have noise but it's usually in underexposed shots. Then I use some noise reduction and they look OK. Here's a couple panos from the same location that were shot AEB, during the day and right at...
