Inspire 1 RAW video modes.

Captured Media · Sep 5, 2016

I have just received my inspire 1 raw, it's a serious bit of kit and flies great. I purchased the RAW over the pro with the thought that in future when i'm trying to get work with it I can offer 4k dng footage if needed. I therefore just assumed that there would be several options in the video format section of the DJI go app to record 4k dig & 4k mp4, I can only find an option for 4k dng is there an mp4 option or do I have to post process all 4k footage I get?

You have to post process the images using the DJI converter app

Righto that's a bit annoying, I know it's not wise to assume but you'd think it would be able to do 4k mp4 like the pro can.
Thanks for the info.

The X5r is shooting 24 dng's per second, same way that the Canon 5D's started off doing. the drawback is that you have to prost process it to put it in a video wrapper. The advantage is no compression algorithm is applied and a much better image.

Isn't there a sd card slot on the camera?
i'm getting ready to upgrade, I thought I read there was a micro sd card slot on camera and this had the compressed files.

Yeah there is I've just been put flying tonight and there is an option to record 4k mp4 to the sd, I'm not sure how I missed the option before, still getting used to the app.

You should be able to record 4K MP4 to the SD card slot, simultaneously to 4K DNG on the SSD with the RAW. At least I got that to work Once (unfortunately, my kit is in the shop getting a mainboard replacement so I can't confirm for you)...

Yeah you can I was just being a bit dim and hadn't realised it was going on the sd card

I was looking for this setting as well. How do you enable this setting to record to SD?

Thanks in advance!

In the video settings menu there are options for recording size for the ssd and micro sd if it's set to 4k for the ssd it automatically records 4k to the sd card.

You are the man, thank you! I just got mine in the mail and the dngs are massive and I need to figure out a good workflow for them.

Thanks!

Yeah same I've nearly had nine 2 weeks. I had a play with a 2 min dng clip I'd shot in Premier Pro took about 5 mins to load the files then when I exported it it took about 45 mins. Did look amazing though! I'm sure there must be a faster way to do it.
