    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    So far not really. This one dude was complaining that he could not get the pan smooth and I shot this with no post stabilization at all.. nothing "impressive" but it shows a smooth pan! https://www.instagram.com/p/-92F_ltJ4R/?taken-by=sleepyc

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    I lost a motor on my large X8 carrying an M5 and GH4 with a 14mm Cine lens and 4/3 to canon glass speed booster. And I had the same result as Carapau... weird twitch and then the rig flew totally normal. I got HUGE billowing red smoke from my ESC that was on fire, but besides that landed without...

    DJI Zenmuse XT Thermal Camera: Unlock the Possibilities of Sight

    Unnecessary if the arms raise. The camera is free of the props already. But hey DJI get it together! I have spent the last two days updating my x5 pro and it's worse than it was. Get the ca,era firmware right. If you sell to professionals, let's have a professional product! Sc

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    Well it was for the x5 too. I had to put my x3 on and then upgrade to the I1's new firmware and then delete the .bin file, install my X5 and all is right in the world. Ahhh DJI so much fun. But man does the I1 Pro fly nice. I added 14" CF T-Motor props. Holy balls. Smoother than any rig I have...

    US, Anyone doing the 333 exemption process on their own?

    $5000 - $7500 if you find a cheap place. Or $3500 - $5000 for a powered parachute

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    For the most part. No reason to fly em for 99% of what I do. Also they just upped the X5's bit rate in a update today. SO I'm looking forward to seeing what that looks like. But of course it's FRICKING DJI so even though I had a successful update I'm getting errors... :(

    Phantom Crash

    See I thought this as well, and in some cases (HUGE MOVIES) that may be the case, but Mike from Cinedrones has 2 shops, works 6 days a week for TV networks, commercials and many other big time shows and shoots like 95% of his stuff on the I1 and now I1P. It;s nuts!

    Has anyone tried Atomos shogun or Ninja assassin Pro

    We have the Assassin and it's awesome. Straight out of the GH4 into it. It's beautiful. Also the features are insane. You can set up "pre-grades" and check your shot with that grade style applied. Split screen from pre-grade to grade. Control camera and many other functions. It is seriously...

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    I have both a GH4 and an X5. The GH4 is better. The X5 is very nice tho and for how well the I1V2 flies with it attached it's a hard sell to worry about the difference. DJI could make the X5 better and closer to a GH4 with a firmware update, as the sensor can do a lot more than they are...

    Retracts

    I think I always paid around $118 for a set with controller... which is INSANE. Just a year ago, the cheapest retract that actually worked wee $750

    Phantom Crash

    Yea but none of your "can it" qestions apply to the craft. No one buys an I1P to flip. No one buys an I1P to take out the FC and swap it into another machine. The P3P and the I1P are purpose built machines. I have built over 100 multi rotors in the past 8 years. Some for customers that ran into...

    Phantom Crash

    I hated DJI and avoided them forever. I have a pile of custom rigs I have built over the years and still fly, but the P3Pro and the I1Pro are game changers. You can't build a rig that does what the I1 Pro does for even close to the same price.. it's nuts.

    Phantom Crash

    Well actually the tablet you have connected to the Phantom 3 shows warnings right on it. In fact when the batt gets to 10% a notification will pop on and say "Critical battery" and if you do nothing, the ti will land itself. So I'd say the operator would have to disregard all of this and keep...

    How much to charge the customer?

    Most photography services go by day rates. And will usually only break that rate into half day rate and full day rate. Now that rate can change by what equipment you take out. If someone asks me to bring out a Phantom 3 Pro and shoot some shots I may charge $1200 for the day rate and $750 for...

    Alta Price goes UP - A LOT.... $11,995.00 WHAT?!?!?!

    "Exposure and dynamic range trump resolution IMO." 10000000% agree to this. having a 12K camera that gets grainy without perfect light is USELESS!
