    Shooting, Editing, and Producing in H.264 or H.265 Codec?

    I produce mostly web marketing videos shooting in 4K with a P4P and Air 2S in H.264. I then most often edit and produce the final cut using H.264 reduced to 1920x1080, and only sometimes producing at full 4K. I'm considering doing some trials with the H.265 codec to try to save storage space as...

    H.265 with D-Log results in serious banding, watch the video.

    Comparison footage of DJI PHANTOM 4 PRO's camera using codecs H.265 and H.264 in D-Log. DO NOT USE H.265 with D-Log because serious banding occurs in large areas with the same color like blue skies, etc. ALWAYS USE H.264 for D-Log. Tested with the latest firmware update - April 2017. ISO...

    Bitrate calculations and implications for best quality

    The P4P uses the following bitrates to record at the various resolutions for H.264 and H.265.

    4K vs HD

    I briefly tested P3P video modes 4096×2160, 3840×2160 and 1920×1080 (footage at ground, imported to Final Cut Pro 10.2.3 and output to 1920x1080 H.264 10Mb/s. I evaluated images exported from video in Photoshop). The only difference between 4096×2160 and 3840×2160 is that the latter is 256...

    4K video codec H.264 question?

    Does anyone know if the Phantom 3 Pro 4k is going to upgrade their video codec from H.264 to the new H.265 high compression codec used by Roku and other 4K UHD streaming devices. Right now the .mp4 4K files will not play on Vizeo M series Televisions because they need the H.265 to play back...
