Thank you! You really are too kind. I think this will always be a "work in progress". Every time I watch it I want to change something. lol

It will be interesting to see if footage from the Q500 4K can stand up to the rest of the world. My video is Riverflight. Hit like if you like... Age Of Drones Expo Germany | Video Awards

You're doing great! The first video is always the hardest. Every time you go out you'll get better and better. I know this may sound crazy but I spend a lot of time flying my little $50 drone around the house and front yard. I have a bunch of batteries and have a blast flying it with the kids...

30 knots is the real deal! I really don't see how you will find anything under $3K that could fight that much wind. The drone would have to travel almost 35 mph just to stay in place. To handle the much wind you are looking at some kind of xFold rigs Mapper or FREEFLY Alta. The bigger and...

Actually, both my Panasonic GX8 and my Olympus E-M1 are completely weather sealed with my 12-35mm f/2.8 and 35-100mm f/2.8 lenses.. What I learned after much research was that most people bashing mirrorless cameras don't actually use them.

I foresee a huge flood of people switching to mirrorless. I switched over to Panasonic last year and I've never been happier. In fact I have to shoot a wedding tonight and I'm overjoyed I don't have to carry 10lbs of Canon gear around my neck! I shoot nothing but 4K now. It's great that you...

Thank God! Someone actually gets it! Nice footage by the way...

You made a good choice. I've used my Q500 4K on many pro shoots and have been accepted into a couple of Film Festivals so quality of the hardware is not an issue. Tips: Shoot everything at 4K and resample down to 1080P. The quality is way better than my old $3K Canon 5D MKIII. Better yet, ditch...

Does any one know if the CGO3+ uses a variable bit rate (VBR) or constant bit rate (CBR)? If it's VBR that would explain the difference in data rate listings. VBR specs will be listed as the average data rate, not the peak. Keyframe distance is also important. Does anyone know what the keyframe...

Yuneec's website claims 60MB 30FPS video capture Typhoon H

What's weird is it's basically the exact same camera as the CGO3 in the Typhoon Q500 4K. None of these videos looks as sharp as what was produced from the CGO3. The new camera looks to be physically the same as the old one. The only difference I can see is the gimble has 360 degrees rotation...

I can't imagine an online course costing $6800! I think the online training course should be free with a small fee to take the test. This will help promote the UAS industry. This billion dollar industry will create thousands of jobs. Every single segment of the industry, from manufacturing to...

I started a forum back in 2008. Before long the trolls showed up. They were a royal pain in the ***! Soon, the trolls were driving all my core viewers away. By 2010 the trolls had gotten so bad I went ahead and shut down the site. It just wasn't worth the hassle to keep fighting them. Don't...

Adobe Premiere Pro... If you don't want to spend the money they I'd recommend Adobe Premiere Elements.

Best 4k video editing software? The "Best" editing software is Adobe Premiere Pro. Why? Intuitive and easy to use. Creative Support - There are many books and online tutorials on Premiere Pro. Supports the CUDA graphics engine (GeForce video card hardware solution). You can buy an...
