    A few videos from the Tampa, FL area

    So been practicing and trying to learn Premiere Pro. We took a trip down to Tampa recently to go to Busch Gardens and to meet up with a few drone friends. Here are the results: Over Busch Gardens - Falcons of Fury Testing http://youtu.be/QDkWKWDBbcY?list=UU2hf60d-P0e-AvFIWduDjbQ Sulfur Springs...

    Hood for Nexus 7

    Thanks for the replies! I didn't realize they were here as I never got notifications anyone replied (I turned it on). I appreciate the suggestions. P.S. Johnnie, I'm here in the US. :)

    Hood for Nexus 7

    Anyone out there using a Nexus 7 for FPV? I've got a Vision 2+ and recently purchased a Nexus 7 for this. I need a hood for it badly, however, as it's VERY difficult to see in bright sunlight. Thanks.

    Premiere or iMovie?

    Makes sense. I understand exporting can take some time but the importing is killing me. Going to have to see about adding Premiere to my Creative Cloud subscription. I really appreciate all of the info you've provided. Extremely helpful. I'm good with editing photos but just learning about...

    Premiere or iMovie?

    Lots of great info. Thanks so much. That kinda sucks. I do find the same thing with Photoshop though, it doesn't play back smoothly when I apply the correction. It plays fine once I import it into iMovie, however. Maybe it's an issue with how Adobe is rendering the preview. At least I know I...

    Premiere or iMovie?

    Thanks. iMovie does more than what I need it to do but I can't take the amount of time it takes to import/export. Anyone know if I can correct for lens distortion in Premiere? I'm guessing I can since I can in PS and LR (both Adobe products of course). But want to make sure. Thanks.

    Premiere or iMovie?

    I'm not using a GoPro though. I've heard good/bad about Final Cut Pro (well, same thing with Premiere). I already use Adobe Creative Cloud so it would be easy to add that. Have to look into the pricing on FCP. Is it faster than iMovie (import/export) and can I correct for lens distortion in FCP?

    Premiere or iMovie?

    Been using iMovie, however, importing/exporting takes FOREVER. Wondering if Premiere is any better with this. Also wondering if you can correct the lens distortion in Premiere. Been using Photoshop to do this but it also takes FOREVER to export the video from Photoshop. Add that to the time it...

    Amelia Island State Park, Amelia Island, FL

    Beach day the other day. Of course, a beach day now entails me bringing Tron (my Phantom) along and flying if the winds are nice. Went to Amelia Island State Park--our favorite beach--and the weather was great (although hot but the water was nice). http://youtu.be/PesOZc7vRtU

    Smooth gimbal tilt possible?

    Anyone figure out how to get the gimbal to tilt smoothly? If I tilt manually, you can see it stepping down. If I use the tilt feature, it's a little better but still can see the steps. Wondering if anyone has figured out how to get it to tilt smoothly.

    Shifting Horizon

    This isn't the problem I'm having. It has never landed hard. It's also not permanently shifted (watch my example video). It's straight most of the time but only every so often does it shift.

    President Barack Obama to issue executive order on drone pri

    Re: President Barack Obama to issue executive order on drone Well-said. As I've said many times before, people have been flying, "drones," in one way or another and with cameras. But now, all of a sudden, it's an issue. Oh, let's not forget there are already privacy laws in place to protect...

    Shifting Horizon

    Yeah, I've still not found a reason why this is happening.
