Where can I learn about video for the drone

[steve stein]

Very confused about the video ability of the P4P. I've been a still photographer for many many years but the last time I shot video was Hi8. I see terms like c4k, 4k, 2.7, H265, H264, and different Mbps. Where would I find information on what and why I would use the different settings for.
Best.. Steve

This guy is pretty good on explaining stuff. I would search those types of video settings to learn what/where/why you would use them.:

In a nutshell 4K is a bigger picture (more pixels) than 2.7k. You need a good cpu pc to process 4K. FPS (Frames per second), Faster frames per second allows better picture clarity, slow motion. Terms like h264 are the encoder format.

TV resolution confusion: 1080p, 2K, UHD, 4K, 8K, and what they all mean

The replies here have some great resources for learning more about drone video. It is similar to regular photography really and a lot of the theory applies here. I would also suggest getting familar with the DJI GO app and the settings which control the camera there. The image profile you shot in has a lot of impact.
