Osmo and X5 = SEXY
- Thread starter Predator
- Start date
Ive got the 3d printed adapter and my osmo works good with the x5 but im not useing it anymore cause im worried about messing up the copper pins.
I dont see how you could damage the pins they just sit there its the (adapter) ring that moves to lock the X5. So there is no rubbing or friction between the X5 and Osmo.
The ring that i bought was from some dude in the UK is very loose, if i tip my osmo into flashlight mode it loses connection and my x5 flips out.
Ahhh thats no good man! Sorry to hear that. I can give you my guy info but hes in Canada and he ships all over.
X5 fan??? There is no fan in the lens my friend. I did see the image flip a few times the first time i used it but now its always perfect dont know why. and i updated my Osmo with the lest firmware that might be why. And the AWB is pretty accurate to me and not a big deal cuz if its off i tweak it in FCPX. But if you are talking about the RAW pics yes The WB is way off and sadly i cant use those pics in color just B&W.
My X5 most definitely has a fan.
For most of my work, AWB is not acceptable.
I haven't tested shooting DNG with the X5 and I was unaware there was some white balance issue. Actually, I don't understand how there can be a white balance issue with DNG since the white balance is usually only a consideration for compressed files.

ok i just checked and yes it did turn on its inside the gimbal not the lens tho.
its nothing loud like the X3 tho... And for RAW i tried several times and they all come out pink. Kinda suck because i always shoot RAW but i dont use the Osmo for pics i have my FF Canon for that.When you say "lens", do you mean the the sensor body? My gimbal motors make noise that sounds a little bit like a fan, but there is an actual fan and vents in the X5 body. I ask because I saw reports of people who had X3's in which the fan was not functioning. Otherwise, I'm not sure why you mention the lens as something that would have a fan.
I also have the photo issue with color. It occurs in both the inspire app and the Osmo app.
I still don't have useable video at 60p. Also, the mic still doesn't work.

You have the RAW issue with the inspire? Mine is fine just the Osmo. and same here no sound.
looking good mate and glad it all worked out for you!
... for me still waiting for the official adaptor to be released... don't mind doing some DIY but honestly the firmware with all that WB and fan problem is just not on man... not reliable enough for work its as good as not having it at all IMO.
Hopefully, by the time they release the adaptor ring for the x5 they would of sorted out the **** firmware with it!

Thx man! I have no WB issues only if i shoot RAW pics but i dont use the Osmo for pics. For me its very stable!
Video from last night my arm sticking out the window to film lol
straight from the camera nothing done to the footage.The WB issue is a problem with the X5 and unrelated to the Osmo. The X5 has the same issues with setting a manual white balance on the Inspire. The fan is also not really a problem. DJI's newest Go app has a setting to turn of the fan, but they haven't released a firmware update for either the X3 or X5 that allows it to work.
The only real inconsistencies with the X5 on the Osmo are that the app crashes when in auto mode, sound is not recorded, some people have a flipped image until recording starts (I believe that this is due to the X5 thinking it is in selfie mode due to it's orientation), high frame rates don't work, pictures have the wrong color space being applied, and there is no control on the app for zoom on the 14-42.

And Casey why would you even want to use the 14-42 f3.5-5.6??? Its a cheap lens kit. Bad reviews and known to be soft. And sh%#y in low light.
