That thing with ND filters has to end sometime! Stop 🛑 advising to buy them. They are useless and a waste of money for the vast majority of droners. When taking photos the ND filters degrade the image. When flying high the NDs are useless. When flying low and slow also they make no difference. Be specific when they are okay to be used and speak less about the obsolete "180 rule".
@SamKarpFPV6 күн бұрын
Thanks for the comment! But I have to disagree, ND filters are far from useless. I'm primarily talking about cinematic video settings here, for photography it's a different game but even then ND filters have their use in long exposure photography. High quality ND filters will not degrade the image, that's just not true. Maybe some random budget ones you'd buy off amazon, sure, but not the ones directly from DJI or say Polar Pro. It is true that the higher you fly the less you'll notice the motion blur, but most people aren't capturing static shots at 400ft, as soon as you introduce motion without properly setting your shutter you're going to notice unwanted jittering in the footage. I fly commercially for real estate and car dealerships, most the drone footage I record is below 200ft, often times barely above power lines doing dynamic movements or using the drone as a replacement for a camera jib. at that level you 100% need an ND filter to properly lock the exposure and shutter. I'm curious why you think the industry standard 180 degree shutter rule is "obsolete"

Great but I have question for bit odd usage,we can fly it to take shoots but Can I use it as All in one camera I mean using Air 3s 24mm lens for recording Talking head studio shoots by using it at any gimble, using it as webcam etc so that I should never be in need of any other camera.
@SamKarpFPVАй бұрын
@@husratmehmood2629 I mean you can hit the record button when it's not flying. I don't think you can get video out from USB though. So I doubt a webcam setup would work. But for the price of this you could almost pick up a Sony A6700 and it would be miles ahead of the camera on the air 3s.

@husratmehmood2629 fair enough! I was basing the pricing off the fly more combo and that brings it much closer to the 6700. It completely depends on your use case. Between those two I'd go with the pocket 3 every time

From where did you took the info that Sharpness -2 is leaving details but is not processing in drone the extra sharpness? As far as I know, in fact is blurring with a Gaussian, killing the small fine details that were already killed by the lower bitrate.... Tks.

@@geodrone7643 maybe I should've included an example in the video but I didn't have the time. From what I've seen through davinci resolve adding a small amount of sharpening brings the image back almost exactly to what it looks like at 0 sharpness. From what I've seen no details are lost.

Hello, I have a mini 4 pro and air 3s. Gimbal setting up and down movement. I only want to set the smoothness, but it doesn't work. Cine and Sports modes follow the Normal mode settings. Each setting cannot be configured.
@SamKarpFPV2 ай бұрын
Hey that's a great question! Looking at my controller for the Air3s it looks like you can adjust gimbal smoothness by going into settings, control, then scroll down to Gain & Expo Tuning. From there you should be able to adjust Gimbal Tilt Smoothness and speed for each flight mode. Hopefully that helps!

So far I haven't noticed any Jello effect. There is an optional vibration dampener for the GoPro mount that you can purchase from SpeedyBee if Jello becomes an issue. Between the Cinelog 35 and the Bee35 it's really just gonna come down to preference. I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Enjoyed the video. I used a 30 x 30 with a vista and followed a build on another channel (Bilu Media) that used a 30 x 30 with an 03. The ESC has to be mounted upside down on top with the flight controller below in normal orientation. PITA and tight, but can be done. I love the frame and the way it flies with the mini 11. I added GPS/magnetometer to mine along with lidar in hopes of being able to use the low altitude hold in INAV for certain situations like indoor fly throughs, but was unsuccessful in getting it to hold altitude, so installed Betaflight. I'll probably try INAVs new version again soon.
