yh calibrated it, still not perfect but it flies

 

learning to fly these things are a pisstake

 

it's the turning round n then flying it back with the controls backwards that's throwing me off

 

which i may not really actually need to do to get decent shots / vids but that's what i'm lookin to master

 

still aint took it outside, saw some vids where guys are ragging these about sick

altho i could be swayed

Mirroless cameras have improved over the years.

For stills I still own a canon DSLR. They have an organic warm look to it. I haven't come across a mirroless that produces that look. But, its only a matter of time before its like for like imo.

 

I owned a mirrorless for a while. But, it was for videos strictly. I wasn't keen on the pictures. When I used some old school lenses on it though I got some stunning images out of it. For someone who shoots as a hobby & does video I will recommend a mirrorless.

u sent me down a hole

 

now im thinkin the bebop with the sky controller is gonna have to be the 1 cos of the reviews n image stabilising shit

 

only issue is the limiting 9-12 min battery life n the largeness of the thing n the controller cos i wana be haulin it around on long sweaty hikes n journeys

 

cheapest ive seen is 590 here but this site can be notoriously shit accordin to reviews

that also means i'll need a separate waterproof action camera so im lookin at the roam contour 2 for 80 bish

thinking hard about copping the panasonic GH4

 

anyone got this or recommend it?

Very good camera. You won't regret it.

I think its the best camera within its price range offering 4k.

 

Cons:

Micro 4/3 sensor. Its Hard to get wide pictures. Wider lens are quite costly if available

Skintones on images (Video) is usually quite washed.

 

Pros:

4k Video, Clean & Sharp. Ideal for documentaries, Events,

96fps for super slow mo

Form factor: Light, Nice run & gun camera

Lens options: You can almost adapt any lens of your choice with that sensor. You can get some old school glass with a wide aperture for as little as £20 and use with an adaptor.

 

Overall the Pros outweigh the Cons, Shame the community isn't as big as Canon. I think the camera is very slept on. I had the G5 for a while

I was considering upgrading to the gh4, but I went for the BlackMagic Cinema instead.
