No you won’t get the panorama photos out of the drone as it’s a complex software task. You can use DJI Media Maker or Adobe Lightroom for good results. Before you shoot lock the exposure for the average shot I.e not the brightest or darkest. Have fun!
The reason macs don't like H265 is that iMovie and FCPX will not process it. If you convert it you don't gat any image benefit. 4K is slow as the codec does not record every frame just the changes between frames. The computer then has to rebuild each frame. This is very processor intensive but...
It's your choice. The sun hood doesn't work in bright sun as the brightness of the screen is too low. You also get reflections of yourself. If you put an anti glare screen protector is reduces the screen brightness further. I have tried all of the ways to improve the view on a tablet but nothing...
The major benefit of the P4P+ with the built in screen is that it is twice as bright as a tablet. If you fly on sunny days you can have issues with seeing detail due to screen reflections. With the built in screen this is not an issue at all.
I have a P4P+ and the 4K50p PAL in U.K. Works great. I use it for surfing videos. You need a fast pic/Mac to deal with it don't underestimate the processing time for the footage. Also need a fast Micro SD card.

Blow them out with a camera air blower. That has worked for me. It's usually dust or grit picked up on take off or landing.

Here is a tutorial video I have made after spending 2 months filming surfing in Portugal. Let me know what you think. I hope it inspires some of you to have a go as its great fun.
To warm the batteries put them up your jumper and keep the next one in a pocket near your skin. It's the fastest way I have found!!

I have a P4Pro. The battery can appear to be locked in but are a few mm out. Check the battery is fully engaged before take off.

You need to shoot at the highest frame rate available. I shoot footage of surfers at 4k 50P in Europe 60p in USA. This will allow you to slow the footage by 50% for a 30P payback. The higher frame rate will reduce motion blur. Here is a clip with the 4K 50P footage slowed by 50%. The added...
I am using a P4P+ now to film the surfing. Have not had any issues with the collision avoidance. The drone flies very steadily. However, you need to take care as the CA doesn't always work over water. Here is a clip where i get too close to a wave. Squeaky bum time but epic footage!!
