    Olympus 12mm Focus Issue

    hopefully someone can shed some light on this. Once you snap that focus ring off of manual any setting that you made while you were in manual is not active anymore and the app should take over. I read somewhere that someone had to use an object closer than normal when calibrating so maybe I’ll...

    Olympus 12mm Focus Issue

    Hello all. I have the Olympus 12 mm lens and have used it for a couple of shoots with really good results. On the last couple of shoots the image has been garbage with it being pixelated. There is a clutch ring that you move back and it lets you focus manually. Before now I had never used that...

    Power Inverters - Best for Inspire 2

    Thanks for all the replies. Another thing is I shoot heavy transport jobs where I’m driving ahead of the transport and setting up for the shot as they pass by so I’m always on the move. A generator wouldn’t work for this type of job.

    Power Inverters - Best for Inspire 2

    I’ve seen a bunch of these threads and some of them are old. I was wondering if people had an up to date inverter that they may be using now that has worked well for them.

    Power Inverters - Best for Inspire 2

    Hello all, Have an Inspire 2 and sometimes fly a mavic and phantom 4 owned by a client of mine. I’ve been using a 2000 watt inverter (cigarette plug) in my Tahoe and it charged the I2 batteries no problem except the cord would get really warm and the inverter would alarm so I’d shut it down...

    Olympus or DJI for wide angle?

    Thanks for the replies. I was on a shoot last week shooting stills of a big factory and I had been keeping the 25 mm on The camera as my go to lense but had to fly a good ways out to capture the whole property of the factory. The jobs that I have used a 15 mm on came out OK but that 25 mm is...

    Olympus or DJI for wide angle?

    I have the factory 15 mill lens with the X5S and also have the Olympus 25 and 45 mm lenses. I love the 25 mm but would like to find out if purchasing and Olympus 12 mm would be a better lens than the stock 15 mill DJI. What are your thoughts? I am looking for sharpness because I find The stock...

    Filming from a boat: Radar interference?

    After launching off the back deck I went up in the pilot house to run it from there. I had attended the christening of the vessel and brought the drone to test to see if number one, it would calibrate and be able to take of from the aluminum deck and two, to see if I still had a good signal from...

    Filming from a boat: Radar interference?

    It was hairy dealing with the rough seas making the boat rock a lot and with all the birds at the stern near where I was landing. I have my I2 set to never kill the motors in the air. Never knew about the left stick down and center + RTH to emergency stop. Always used left stick straight down or...

    Filming from a boat: Radar interference?

    Update: Shot the job today. Was able to stay in full gps mode but landing was interesting. We were in some rough seas and the boat was rocking and when landing it wanted to level off itself so the motors were spinning up and wanting to lift the back end. I held the left stick down but that...

    Filming from a boat: Radar interference?

    About to go on a new vessel delivery tomorrow to shoot some aerials as we go and on Tuesday on sea trials. I was wondering if the vessels radar would have any interference with my I2. Another question is has anyone here landed on a moving boat? This vessel will do around 17 knots and was...

    Sharpest Aperture 25 & 45 Olympus Lenses

    I shot a project recently and I have to say that my I2 photo quality is better than my I1. I can zoom in on small objects and they’re a bit sharper.

    Inspire 2 Unable to take off when magnetic interference.

    I’ve had the same issue while trying to takeoff from within a huge drydock. To solve the problem I got off onto the pier onto the blacktop and took off. The guys wanted a group shot with the drone so what I did was find a piece of plywood that was nearby and take off from that. I’ve been told...

    Sharpest Settings for 24 & 45 Olympus Lenses

    I've been using 5.6 on my inspire 1 X5. I'm hoping to get sharper pics with the Olympus lenses. Still waiting on my balance rings and my GPC case.
