$350 shipped for the camera. Anyone?

Lenses all sold. Camera still available. Will post to eBay soon so let’s make a deal!

Hi Mark. You definitely need the 12mm as a good base lens. It’s a very “normal” field of view on the X5 cameras. The 25mm is a good second option for better close ups and more compression of space, but I wouldn’t recommend it as your only option. The 45mm is very telephoto and would be used for...

Regular X4S package just shipped from Shenzhen. Stoked.

A PayPal authorization only lasts 30 days, so DJI charges your card either before the authorization expires, or when your item ships, whichever comes first. This scenario is almost certainly the former. You can see all this described in the DJI FAQ section of their website. I'm actually happy...

I travel all the time with big cases. The pelican 1650 and the DJI Ronin case. Never have issues if they're under 50lbs. Southwest is the best (free bags!)but if you're a profession film company, most airlines have discounted rates for heavy-*** baggage. Make sure you make yourself a "company...

You could shoot a series of photos and stitch them into a 3, 4 or 6 photo "panorama." I believe some others have done this with good results. Maybe it's personal preference, but for aerial work I kind of prefer a slightly higher shutter speed of 1/80 or so. Seems crisper with less mush. Sent...

Dusty, what size is that peli? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shot -1 sharpness last week and was very happy. A bit oversharpened but quite good. Today I did -2 and the result was mush, even after adding back sharpness in Final Cut. Not too happy with it. ISO was at 100-200 both times but there was a clear difference. I will be sticking with -1 for the...

All this really means is shrinking a 4K video to fit inside a 1080p project. Every square of four pixels in the 4K video combine to create one pixel in the 1080p project. Usually this is as simple as creating a 1080p timeline in your editing software and dropping in the 4K video file. You may...

I shoot 4k UHD as it fits nicer in a 16:9 project than the slightly taller 4k DCI. Down-res using FCPX into a 1080p timeline. Shoot at 24p or 30p depending on if I want slight slow motion. Usually do 24p as it allocates the limited 60mbps bitrate for 15% fewer frames. Shoot with the LOG color...

You do not need an expensive hard drive to play a single stream of HD or even 4k video. Inspire 1 video is 60mbps which equates to about 7Mb/s actual transfer speed. Most single drive spinning enclosures will easily hit 100Mb/s + through USB 3 - that would theoretically let you play 13 streams...

Maybe it's as simple as that. I was earlier under the impression that the master controller was sending the video to my slave, so perhaps I was turning around a bit to see the screen better not thinking about the long-range transmission directly from the craft to the slave controller. The video...

Right, that's what I thought. I was just reading some conflicting information above so wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. If you set the master to custom channel xx, then you don't need to (and are not able to) manually set the channel on the slave to channel xx as well. Sent...
