I've watched dozens and dozens of Mavic videos. Each one, including this one, I'm able to pull at least something from. Your simple explanation on shutter speed and ISO was helpful.
Thanks Chad!
I am from Germany and normally my English isn't that good but u did a great job my friend... I could understand 80%. Thanks for fast and good information. U got a new fan now .
Great description of all the camera functions, this simplified them all. New drone owner here and quite overwhelmed of all the settings. This helped out a boatload thanks!!!!
I was looking for an end with a perfect image. Instead you left me with an unuseable washed out image telling us to fix it with a filter. So finish this showing how to use the filters on a Mavic to get that perfect video.
Wow, well said. I’ve watched a ton of mavic videos over the past few days. This is a real good one
Well explained. It will be a huge benefit to me as I have recently purchased a Mavic Pro 2. Thanks
Very well structured info - I wish all youtube videos were like yours! Thanks for taking the time to create this!
+PHOTO1x1 Free Photography Course Of course!
Hello. I Liked and subscribed. So far, you are the only RUclips channel making a video that explains with good articulation, how to set the camera. DJI drones, I have experience with. The camera and photography, I'm a newbie but, I do have some good instincts.
I like these short and concise videos, thank you
Thank you so much for an in depth explanation
Good material. Thanks, and subscribed!
tons of info and straight to the point. Thank you
Thanks Billy for the concise tutorial - subbed!
Would have been helpful to see you pop a filter on at the end to correct the overexposure.
agreed
Yeah this way you still have no idea what it is like, the sample clip does not specify a filter.
ND filter is nice BUT not necessary even in your example. Why did you not just turn down the "EV" setting? Hmmmmm you aren't perhaps marketing those filters are you?
it does sounded like he is marketing them @@jamienorton9172
@@jamienorton9172 No, he is not marketing the ND Filters. As he mentioned, the shutter speed NEEDS to be double that of the Frame Rate. So selecting a shutter speed double the frame rate will automatically overexpose the footage in bright conditions unless a ND filter is used.
What a relevant and well performed introduktion. Im very pleased with the information level in this video. I cant wait to get my Mavic in the air, and try out your tips.
Nice and straightforward, no pandering to click affiliate links. Thanks much.
Great video. It taught me everything I needed to know about the video capture with no rubbish chatter. Thanks.
Dude, great video thank you
just started using manual setting on my Phantom 3 and done my first test with it. Came out really well and looking forward to filming all my vids with the drone in M :)
You're a God sent. Great info Billy
Super Helpful!!! Thank you!!
Best guidance on the internet. Pacy, accurate ... thanks Billy.
+Max Flight Thank you sir!
Just saw this video... Thanks for the tips. I'll have to try them out.
Great help thanks👍
Awesome video Billy, Man you just made things so much easier for me. Kudos. Thumbs up and a subscriber now.
Oh yea I do have a nice set of filters too, :}
You could also multiply the frame rate value by 2x or 3x or 4x and so forth and still eliminate shutter speed issues while darkening the shot. Then adjusting your EV value to 0 or -1 or -2 etc to darken without an ND filter. Good video, fast and informative, well done. Peace out.
Thank you!
The way you say post is lovely
Great video. Very informative
Damn thanx Billy!! Used these similar settings on Mavic Pro for my Transient Video!! buajajaja keep em coming man, love it.
Thanks man!!
Great teaching 🤩👌
I watched many videos, you and the guy of drone Vally, you are both extraordinary, thanks
+Ashraf Kabesh No problem, thanks for the kind words!
Great thanks!
Great video!
Great vid. Awaiting FedEx delivery for my Mavic slated tomorrow - wooohooo. Will be using your vids as guides for initial set up and precautions. Keep 'em coming.
+1 KMnO4 Awesome, great to hear! Thanks for the support!
Billy Kyle Maiden flight was a success despite 5-10 mph winds with gusts up to 15 - she performed like a champ. Wife made a few snarky comments as I took her out to about 3/4 of a mile but were well founded. Will tinker with your recommendations in this video tonight/tomorrow.
+1 KMnO4 Awesome! Great to hear! Thanks for coming back to my videos!
Love your video thanks
Thanks Angel! Really appreciate it
Hi Billy I really appreciated the tutorial on camera settings. I just got my Mavic and didn't know where anything was or how to get to it. this step by step walk thru all the setting and what they do was just what I needed. thanks and really enjoyed it.
Would love to see a walk through on all the flight modes and how to access them also.
+Ralph Johnson Sr. Glad I could help Ralph!
New to the whole photography game. This helps a lot thank you! The mavic pro is way too advanced lol
Clear and concise info! thanks! :)
+PierreTL You're welcome!
Great job, thanks. I wish you woulda thrown an ND filter in on the end there to show us what it woulda looked like.
Great video! Jut bought the Mavic Pro yesterday and this helped out a lot!
Thank you Chris!
Mede Blac I ordered it January 8th and got it on the 24th with overnight shipping.
+Chris Addams "Overnight" lol
Nice review!
Appreciate the tips! Merry Christmas Billy!
+Todd Covington Merry Christmas to you too Todd!
Thanks for posting this!
No problem Shawn!
Thanks a lot!
Awesome information on settings thanks!
+alrestauro You're welcome!
Very informative, thank you.
+Miles Hunter You're welcome Mike!
very useful, thank you for your time.
Sure thing!
Great video. Immediately subscribed!
Thanks dude!
Hey, I Recently learned that the mavic will add its own denoising if you set the sharpness to 0 or below. this causes a loss of detail, and blurry images. Its better to set the sharpness to +1 and remove some of the sharpness later with proper noise reduction in post.
thanks! This must be why my footage looks like sh*t
Just subd. I fly the phantom 3 advanced my second one lol. I checked out your video for a few friends who have the mavic pro. Nice tutorial i will pass it on to my friends. thanks for sharing.
+Chris M Thanks Chris! Appreciate you passing it on
Nice video Billy. I've been trialing the PolarPro ND filters for the mavic. They seem to work well. Cheers.
Awesome Patrick, thanks for the comment!
Good Job! Thank You!
+Andrey Andy 👍🏼
For sure with a camera that has a fixed aperture, a ND filter is a must! Heck even on the P4P its a must on sunny days and that has an adjustable aperture.
Hey BK,
Great video, well done, very informative. I'm new to drones and recording/producing videos and your suggestions will be great starting point to my experiments.
Thank you,
--jr
I am a photograher and yes do videos too. This is very useful
This was great man. Thanks. Mine just wont let me change the florescent flashing to 60 hz...
Great Video. I can't find any suggestions on the best color profile and style settings for RAW still shots? Everything out there is relating to video. Any suggestions would be great.
For my opinion, +1/0/0 - is the best settings, because of -1/x/x result as soft leaves for example and it could not be restored in post. Also, D-Log - is the best settings for post, such as grading etc.
u earned subscription
+Nomi Thank you!
Very useful.
+Sam Wilkinson Thanks Sam👍🏼
thanks
Thanks... I'm a new user and may not experiment with the camera until I familiarize myself a little more with the piloting and navigation aspects... Do you cover those topics as well?
First class video many thanks Have you any thoughts / tests on different filters please? TY
+Tom Milne The best set of filters is the polar pro cinema series lends
Very helpful! Do you have a video showing some of your post process too?
Awesome! Thanks.
Thank you, I thought something was wrong. Never seen any information on them before.
No problem!
That's 9 minutes I'll never get back. It was going great until the part where you need filters to make these settings work.
Just to bring the shutter speed down, otherwise everything else works fine
Very cool video 😊 can you tell me it is normal for mavic pro that when moving drone the picture gets really distorted?
Great info. New sub.
+Jim Williams Thanks Jim!
Jim Williams I
@@billykyle hi great video very helpful and useful , just a quick question , I’ve set my ISO value to 100 , but the shutter speed setting bar is different instead of going up like 25,30,50 mine are indicated as 1/30 , 1/40 , 1/50 and so on I’m filming in 4K at 30fps .... any idea on what the shutter speed would be set as in my case ? Thanks 🙏🏻 safe flying 🇬🇧
Great Vid.. Sub'd.
Thank you Toro!
Great video. I am having a problem. I cannot switch off of 50 Hz in the "anti-flicker" tab. Any suggestions??
Great info, thanks for sharing! Can you tell me where my settings should be if I don't do any post? Can I do post through Imovie?
Yes. You'll be able to change the values of saturation, contest etc with that software.
Billy what is the AFC button on the Mavic Pro Zoom's function?
Great video... couple of observations: It would be great to see the sliders move or mouse pointer indicate what features you are talking about. Fortunately I know them but not everyone does. Another one is I find it l=misleading to end such a good video with the overexposed image and the necessity to purchase ND filters. Not necessary, the shutter speed value should be "at least twice" of the frame rate but it could be much more... that's why you can go much higher ;-) Thank you, keep'em coming!
Daytona 6263 i think i see it now. Thanks for the info. I'll give a shot to NDF
So I decided to follow all this settings only to find out I need an ND filter to get the same result. What settings do you recommend for those without the ND filter?
when i press icon above record button (with the 2 arrows) nothing happens - does controller and drone have to be on for this to work? I though I could go ahead and do all settings on the app directly...
After setting your ISO and Shutter Speed manually, how do you determine which ND filter to use?
There is a nice polar pro app in the Google app store that will help you decide (10 months later, I'm sure you've found something by now).
Billy I set my settings to the same 4K settings when I played them back on my mac the video was very laggy or jerky at 30 FPS
Hey man, could you tell me the best video setting for mavic using Litchi
app? I use the DJI GO Pro mostly on my flights, but I started to like
the Litchi app more and more, but there's not many video setting guide
for Litchi as there are for the DJI Go Pro app. Or can I just apply the
DJI Go Pro video value settings on Litchi and it'll produce the same
video quality result? Appreciate your guide on this. Thanks.
My opinion but, I would NOT use the Litchi since it interferes with the DJI Go 4 APP. The Litchi is a Way Point application which the GO 4 APP does very well. You don't need it so, save your money for the Mavic.
Hi, very good video!!
I have Mavic for two weeks and my videos are very bad....no focus!!
One question, are there settings for camera and others settings for video? or are the same?
Thanks in advance
Daniel
When you turn the drone on, hit auto take off, then on the screen touch the screen at a far off point, it will focus on it...
if you are in a darker environment should you use a lower resolution?
What causes flickering outside when flying lower to grass and smother surfaces in sunlight?
Thanks Billy...got confirmation that my Mavic is on the way. Don't you have one of these exact vids on the camera settings for the P4P or do you use the same settings for the P4P....I know the sensors are quite different, so I was curious. Thanks again man
+R M Phantom 4 Pro version is in the works. It's a bit more in depth as the camera is a lot better. Happy to hear your Mavic is on the way!
Billy Kyle Super cool you;'re working on the P4P vid ! Cant wait too set it
Thanks Rick!
Hi thank you four your video is normal when you fly a Mavic Pro Platinum the camera move when you turn the drone please can you let me know if I can stop that thks
Found this really helpful!
Has anyone ever told you that your voice is similar to the "Casually Explained" guy?
+morgish Never hahaha is that a good thing?
Billy Kyle yep. Check out his channel. Guy is hilarious.
Cheers again for this video. Have subscribed!
+morgish Awesome. Thank you!
How about a video named "getting started" This was way over my head
Thanks, how far do you push +/- EV before you need to switch out your ND filter?
+Russell Wiltshire Photography Anything under -1 or over 1
thanks for this 😊 what is video caption? why should we turn it off or on?
+Mattia Antonelli It's just a description for the video. I find no use for it
Billy Kyle thanks! I don't know after today's update if is better to film in D-Log as i do until today or switch to normal.
Which update are you referring to?
Billy Kyle today i've received a new update for d log feature and something more. Don't you have received it?
Hello Billy,
I would like to ask you a question regarding my Mavic Pro camera settings. Whenever I video record in 4K @ 30 fps the drone is creating split files and audio is not being recorded and being cached over into the split files. I am using a 256G Ultra Hi-speed (3) SD card and I have even used a 512G Ultra Hi-speed (3) SD card but still it is producing a single video session over multiple split files. One of the split files out of the group of split files does contain audio but the length of the files is only 19 seconds long. I have enabled the record video with audio option in the camera setting and defined the cached size to auto and also have tried 16G and have also formatted the SD card but I still am getting the same split file results. I have also tried resetting my camera settings but am getting the same split file results. What do you suggest?
This is the most confusing setting in the DJI 4 app. As far as I know the MP does not have a microphone so no audio is being recorded to be cached over. Maybe someone will come along and shed some light on this feature.
what about the hz and pal setting in Asia?
overall my videos are a bit unsharp though i focused. if i watch the videos they never look like raw footage of other youtubers or even if i zoom in on the pictures the faces are just a big mess off a pudding.
Does anyone has a conclusion about that?
Cheers
Does video caption mean it puts the telemetry in the video or photo?
You might want to explain that not all filters are created equal, polar pro you have to remove the filter every time you change a battery, with Taco and freewell you leave them on. Makes a huge difference I have found in flying.
+print4apet I've made various videos on them, explaining how they work. DJI's ND filters for the Mavic are on there way now, can't wait to try them.
I meant just on this, since ya sayin the filters are great, or mention in the description the other vid that explains, as you know many people arrive at this vid, not seen the others. The freewells have been great a bud is using the taco's and great, so will see what dji comes up with, but they aren't making them, it's oem. Keep up the nice work!
Hi Billy. My anti flicker setting is stuck on 50Hz CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO GET IT ON 60HZ AS YOU HAVE YOURS?? Thanks
I had the same problem. I was able to get it to 60hz this way. Reset camera settings> change it to 60hz first> proceed with other settings> mine stayed on 60 doing it that way. Hope this helped!
haven't bought the ND filters yet. Can you post a walk through on how and when to use them? When do you use one over the other?
It may be easier if I just respond in this comment. Basically ND filters have different values (4, 8, 16, 32) and the higher the number, the darker the shade. The ND8 lens is my lens of choice as this will work in all sunny conditions. If it gets cloudy (overcast conditions) use the ND4 lens as that will provide good exposure values. When flying directly into the sun I would suggest an ND16 or ND32 lens, this can be good for sunsets. I hope that helps!
Billy Kyle perfect
+Chad LeClaire Awesome glad I could help
to you have to be connected to the quad to make these changes or can you do it on the app and then connect?
+Greg Bouten They may not save if you're not connected.
can you do a review on the mavic pro remote controller monitor hood
I haven't seen this product. I'll have to look around for it.
it is in the dji online store
Hey, Nice vid, thanks. I have a question, though.
Why can't you just increase shutter speed and get away without ND filter? What are the cons of that?
Thanks.
+Психолог Никита Григорьев The reason to set the shutter speed double the frame rate is because it helps us record video that contains natural movement. If the shutter speed is too slow, you’ll get blurred movement, if you shoot at a shutter speed that’s too high, everyone in your scene will look as if they were recorded in stop motion. Does that help?
Thanks for reply.
Hmm.. I get motion blur, but I never had problem with fast shutter speed. Never saw footage, where everything looks like stop motion.. Is there any vid on youtube about it?
Or at least an example?
Would really appreciate the link
+Психолог Никита Григорьев Skip to around 2:40. It just looks like the image jutters, if that makes sense. ruclips.net/video/DGQ3DNLkp_4/видео.html
If you are shooting still objects you won't see many problems. I shoot Real Estate with a Ronin M and a gh4 and most of the time I set it to aperture control to get even exposure when going from room to room letting the camera adjust the shutter speed as needed. Good video Billy posted on shutter effects!
+Jeff Openshaw Yeah photographers won't see much of a difference unless shooting a moving object. Thanks Jeff!
How do you straight the view angle ?
how come my shutter speed is in fractions? like 1/100 or 1/80 which should I pick
can you please link to the filter
