Yeah there is definitely a learning curve but once you get it dialed in its absolutely amazing. I'm glad you are up and running. If you need any help just give me a shout. I am always around.Thanks. I have not been able to get the lens sharp at all until yesterday and I realised how to calibrate the lens. Here are the originals straight from the camera stock lens....

Yes, I know Ralph. You have already been kind enough to help me. As you know, Im in television production so the drone is just a means to carry the camera rather than flying itself. Im still reading posts here regarding the 45mm but your 14-42 seems the way to go.Yeah there is definitely a learning curve but once you get it dialed in its absolutely amazing.

Doesn't need to be but is recommended as it will have the most depth of field so important to get the focus right at wide open apertureFor the calibration, does the manual Aperture need to be set to the lowest f stop? My stock lens came at 5.6. I had a battery error of a few seconds in flight today so my main concern was solving that issue.

Thanks for your time! It was my inspire 1 Madian flight. I had good temp on my battery because I can fly it out side my back door. It said battery error and was around 3.8 volts on each cell then the message went away. I have flowed gas heli aerial platforms in the past but and new to the Inspire. It was a new fully charged battery with the firmware up to date.I do not believe that the f/stop needs to be set at anything in particular. At least I have not heard about that myself. I set mine to somewhere in the middle, I think f/8. I am not sure it matters. I have heard that one should use manual focus to calibrate. I am not sure that matters. I will tell you this, I had to calibrate several times in order for it to work properly. The GO app asks me repeatedly to calibrate because I change lenses quite often. I use 5 different lenses and I always calibrate when it is asked for. No big deal. If you are asked or wish to calibrate, if you pick an area of high contrast and more than 150 feet away and the OK button does not light up, move a little bit away and try again. I wait until see the "OK" button light up before calibrating. I've used all kinds of different places in the scene to do this, even the horizon. Seems to work for me. Good luck and keep your eyes on that battery! Thankfully I have never had a battery problem but I have now gotten somewhat paranoid due to what I have read here in the forum. It's a great place for info and I try and contribute because I can't tell you how much it has helped me. Good luck and please let me know if I can help in any other ways.
Hi,
I have been having the same trouble getting sharp images but Im a camera man first and I realised I have to calibrate the camera in manual mode at infinity. Most here say to do it in AF but that doesn't make sense. Im happy now. Heres a couple of images I took yesterday where I live..

This is an example of the capability of the X5 MFT, shot in raw and PP to A2 reduced to a tiny jpg 7mb, this is my first picture from a new Inspire X5.
