Try reading the release notes! Especially the part under 'Notes #2'after update on ipad "camera need update"
sorry for my englishTry reading the release notes! Especially the part under 'Notes #2'
Reading.. Not repostingsorry for my english
- Camera version v1.7.0.90 and aircraft version v1.6.0.40 should be displayed on DJI GO as this update
is only for the gimbal and camera system. The version will only display correctly in DJI GO after
connecting to the Internet when upgrade is complete.
No worries - yes the version number will only show correctly AFTER connecting DJI Go to the internet after the upgrade.sorry for my english

Digital zoom a complete waste of time and look what they have sneaked in using camera stability as an excuse...
So DJI would have you believe that they have put a limit on recording time to 1/2 hour to 'Improve stability"
The truth of the mater is - yet again they have got with their pants down (like the 32ch cock up which was transmitting illegally in some countries).
Cameras that record continuously for more than 30 minutes attract a completely different rate (higher) of import duty. I believe governments have now caught up with them and told them they must pay more tax and they have limited the camera recording time to 30 minutes to circumvent this.
Because 'Camcorders' or Video Cameras are taxed at a higher rate than Stills cameras. If a stills camera can only record video for a maximum of 30 minutes it is still classified as a camera. As soon as it goes over 30 mins it becomes a video camera (dual function).I can understand how DJI could get into trouble for permitting comm freqs that aren't legal but I am a little puzzled by the 30 minute rule -- what's up with that? Why should a government care if the camera records for 20 minutes or 40 minutes?

Totally agree but with longer and longer flight times becoming accessible with the likes of the P4 and beyond some people may like to be able to record for more than 30 minutes in a continuous session (Search and Rescue for example or large area mapping). Or when using the video camera - oops I mean CAMERA on the Stick (Osmo) for a longer recording session.Have to admit I am not too worried about the 30 minute video max issue as I never have got more than 20 minutes flying with a T48 battery.

I heard that the limit of 30 minutes of recording is to pay less taxes in some countries.What.. will the recording time be limited to 30 minutes when using it with the OSMO as well??
