    Undecided first time buyer: P4P or Mavic

    I just sold my mavic to get a P4A.. I had it for 6 months and dozens of flights. I wish I would have gotten this phantom in the first place. I think I got sucked into the marketing hype and that it looked so much different than the phantom that everyone seemed to have. I much much prefer the...

    Aperture.. ND filter?

    With those settings, my exposure was dead nuts at 0.. I wouldn't normally shoot at f/8, I don't have ND filters yet and wanted to see what happened with that small of an aperture. Turns out, it still looks pretty decent. My other hobby is photography so I'm pretty well versed in the exposure...

    Aperture.. ND filter?

    I just shot some video at f/8.0, 1/160, ISO 400 and it looked great.. not perfect but I wouldn't have been able to do that with the Mavic.

    First video on my new P4A .. hmmm

    Found it!.. the problem isn't there when I record with the H.264.. it must be the codec on my computer.. I'll have to update it or revise it.. I must say again that this camera is awesome. That video above is without an ND filter. D-cinelike, f/8.0, 1/160th, ISO400.. I'm sure it will look...

    First video on my new P4A .. hmmm

    It is not jerky on youtube... could it be that my windows media player doesn't like H.265?

    First video on my new P4A .. hmmm

    F3Honda4me .. Actually was in the actually in the process of doing that with youtube when came across another issue.. After I upload it, I only get the option of 360p. So I watch the video, at 360p, and it is not jerky?? why only the option for 360p? Could this have anything to do with...

    First video on my new P4A .. hmmm

    So, right off, I'm coming from a Mavic for the last year.. I love this camera, it's awesome and so much better than the Mavic's. I took a short video this morning and it pauses for a micro second every second or so and it's kind of jerky. The first video I took was at 4k 30fps.. so, I move down...

    Aperture.. ND filter?

    So, I see that this P4P/A has an adjustable aperture. Does this mean I could get away with carrying less ND filters? I mean, would a 8 & 16 do, because I could just stop the aperture down? Also at what ISO does noise start becoming a problem? one more, sorry.. with the mavic, I had to slow down...

    Litchi

    Wasn't sure if this was the right section for a P4A question, but figured since it's closer to the P4P than the P4.. I'm coming from the Mavic and have used Litchi extensively. Does anyone know if there are any major differences with Litchi and the P4 compared to the Mavic, aside from better...

    Traded up from the Mavic

    Thanks Luvmytj.. I hope that's it.. I guess I'll wait a few more days. It's windy and raining and cold here anyway. All I would be doing by opening it, is to pet it. lol

    Traded up from the Mavic

    Sold my Mavic today. Went straight to BestBuy and picked up the P4 Advanced.. I haven't opened it yet because after I purchased it, I thought what if they have some great sale for Black Friday.. Has anyone heard if there will be a sale on the P4's?
