3/17 - Firmware 1.7 released

It's transferred to the government entity that handles rights management and joins the pool that gets redistributed along with all the other sources (broadcast licensing, record sales, blank media sales etc...)

I thought the same...but to my amazement, it's not that bad

Looks awfully choppy. Perhaps if DJI provided a gain control to slow the transformation down, or an option to convert one of the control wheels to handle it. In the meantime, I agree with those that suggest using post to handle the zoom. I always shoot in 4k, then use keyframes to control the amount and rate at which I zoom in on a subject. Then I publish the video in 1080. Comes out really smooth and I have complete control over the effect.

I also agree with the zooming in post. It's all about the keyframes. Shoot 4k, and edit in a 1080 timeline.

Can we zoom with the X5?

Digital zooming in camera doesn't make a lot of sense given the fact that you can do this to your hearts content in post. Are there any NLE's that don't allow you to do this? And do so with greater control with panning etc.

With the 45mm it would be even better for on the spot inspections connected on a laptop or pc screen. the site foreman can ask you for a close up so instead of risking your bird by going closer you just punch in the zoom.

I do believe you can go up 2 steps,but not sure.If you are not happy with this and wants to be safe do 1 step at the time.

So any updates on whether 1.7 is any good? Has the x3 horizon been fixed?

 

[pepeticos]

Updated last week, fly 4 times so fare so good ...

 

[Dave Stanton]

Not Mine,

So, you did this with the new "pinch" on the screen under the new firmware?

 

[DennisR]

What.. will the recording time be limited to 30 minutes when using it with the OSMO as well??

Yes, it will. Its the same as DSLR's like the Mark 3 Canon. 29.59 mins. Just switch it off and on again.

OK but no need to do it while flying just make it in final cut X it will be exactly the same when you take a 4K movie into HD final movie. In my sens it's better to stay focus on my flying as I was landing enough in trees lately [emoji41]
