    Adobe has released a beta lens profile for the DJI Phantom 2 Vision camera!

    If you use FCP for video editing then 3rd party plugins are available. And you can tailor the effect to suit the actual lens used. Photoshop could already take an image and let you create a lens distortion of your own. :tennis:

    Naza M V2 vs Naza M-Lite

    I have several Naza's in different models and I cant see any evidence at all that the stab algorithm is different. They all fly the same and very well I would say. The key is getting the Calib. done right. It is quite amazing just how much lean from level can be set and it still levels itself on...

    DJI released the Zenmuse Z15-5D 3-axis gimbal!

    Considering that the cineflex gimbal assy. weighs 67 lbs the weight of the approved lens's is proportionally small, my point is that the design criteria puts all secondary functions outside of the gimbal, the outer axis movement is about the same degree of accuracy as we see in a Zenmuse but the...

    Adobe has released a beta lens profile for the DJI Phantom 2 Vision camera!

    Way to go gents! But why if you make that camera ( or modify a good quality security camera) don't you put a lens on it that doesn't have the distortion in the first place. Also you need a hood on the front.

    DJI released the Zenmuse Z15-5D 3-axis gimbal!

    And there I was expecting you to finally show us that you have at last managed to build a multi rotor that can leave the ground and that you do actually own a camera and have taken a half decent picture with it. Next year maybe.... Chris I would not be too hasty to disregard the DJI claim for...

    Another drone-crashes-into-crowd video

    Bart I was hoping that you or someone would chime in with some sensible suggestions of how this hobby can be brought in line with the seemingly endless quest for it's self destruction. Build what ever turns you on, but why fly it in a public place. Of course DJI is not a silver bullet to the...

    Zenmuse H3-2D AV-OUT Issues?

    I had that issue and now take the camera output direct to the Tx. you need to rebalance with a very small piece of adhesive lead.

    Another drone-crashes-into-crowd video

    More heavy lift crap. Some people never learn... That POS was probably drawing over 100Amps. If it weighs more than 1.5 kilos it should be banned everywhere because there is no point in doing it. A high megapixel camera never made a good AP out of a bad one in the full size world it just made...

    micro 4/3 lenses

    Strange that you haven't noticed the ant-Aliasing with that camera.:highly_amused:

    You will not believe what camera took this video.

    If it is just high resolution you want from the lens then you will probably find that these small lenses are the best. If you want to use the camera for creating cinematic effects then you need focus, aperture and zoom controls, all of these functions result in a compromise in the basic lens...

    Pimp my Quad are selling some 60 Deg. It is good if you have a well balanced vibration free gimbal. 72 deg is a lot easier to work with. Set focus at 50 feet to 150 feet.

    Hi Chris How is that Kratos now that you have had some time with it? beautiful machine but does it deliver what you expected from it. And yes the GoPro 3+ is a great camera when you change the lens. It is not just the image quality it is how such a small camera changes the whole aspect of the...

    DJI released the Zenmuse Z15-5D 3-axis gimbal!

    Good point I don't see any answers, solutions or sympathy. Nothing to be found there... But if you have 80% of the market you must be doing something right.

    Aileron Issue

    I though ailerons were what plankers use to roll their planks. Don't have any Tx trims set when you set your calibration and make sure when you finish they are all centered before moving on. If they don't center with the sticks in the middle reboot the assistant. if that doesn't work then check...

    DJI Intelligent Battery for Phantom 2 Vision

    The secret technology could be in the form of a super capacitor that stores energy and releases it to the system at certain times of high discharge.

    DJI Intelligent Battery for Phantom 2 Vision

    You notice that they refer to it as a battery and not a Lipo. It all sounds to me like Nanophosphate Life PO4 technology which is better than Lithium Polymer in many ways. In particular the way it is not sensitive to minimum discharge levels or drop off the cliff once it gets near exhaustion. It...

    Am I dumb for wanting a Cinestar 6?

    That flicker is not always predictable it would seem. when the angle is right it can be seen but it is also linked to the dust/moisture on the lens and in the atmosphere. At night you can see the red glare from the front nav. lights on a Phantom even though the actual lights are well out of view.

    Am I dumb for wanting a Cinestar 6?

    Some interesting points there Yuri But one thing to consider is that when you go bigger you have to put the camera very low on the frame because if the sunlight passes through the prop. arc onto the front element then you will see some flicker just when you don't want it. A major problem with...
