2 months down the road, I'm disappointed with mine photo wise (which I figured, being a photographer) but everything else has been spectacular. Great beginner drone.
So confused by the (claimed) photo resolution. If I understand it correctly the 48MP photo is done in the software and the output in that case is only JPG? I checked the RAW files you made available, and they're just 9MP in a 16:9 aspect ratio. What is the max DNG resolution and aspect ratio? It's bad that Dji doesn't clearly put this on their site... Thanks!
I bought my first long ago. I bought another used one a couple years ago. I bought my daughter a used one. I have a useful collection of lenses. I also have a a6400 when i need better video. The a5100 is my absolute favorite. I may eventually add a zve10 as i think that it's the closest available replacement. I mostly use the ttartisan 25/2, with occasional use of the Sigma 18-50, and even the 16-50 kit lens. It still kicks axx in 2024.
I have an S100. Any compelling reason to switch to an RX-100 (probably IV but any) for street/travel stills? I know the specs, but talking real world results.
This thing looks great, I think I’m gonna buy it for €369, for that price I get the fly more combo package. Great for a starter right? Wanne use it for some forest walks and on my holiday to France.
You can manually hold the flash upwards and use it as a bounce flash, I did this several times with mine :) There is a mod where you can remove the 4k video time limit and also you can use a powerbank connected to the usb port of the camera and it will work while charging :) I use mine to shoot several hours timelapses. It's a really great little camera!
I have the M6 and you crop with the zoom lens. As this is my third RX I agree with the fragility point. The newer ones are phase detect AF. My main beef with Fuji is only one (23mm?) lens so that was out for traveling (& the inflated cost). Enjoyed your review.
Hi matt. Speaking from uk. Im a total beginner would you say a mini 3 with the additional controler is the way forward for me. I was thinking 2nd hand to save sone money??? Cheers andy
I just bought the M3 as my secondary camera. I'm using a full frame equipment normally on my foto trips but have started cycling and wanted to have a lightweight all-in-one solution. I find the 24 to 70 mm range is sufficient for many situations and the image quality is fine. The camera has a decent evf, and is easy to use. It does of course not provide the "mechanical" haptic feel of my Nikon D750 with its huge optical viewfinder, but it does allow you to manual focus quite well and it offers just enough haptic manual control.
If you need a more recent Sony RX100 camera, I would suggest a -5a(35mm-equiv 24-70mm) or a -7(35mm-equiv 24-200mm). I have worn out a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS50 and a Canon Powershot S100. I would also get the rubber grip for the rigth side for $15US.
Hey, I was wondering, for me to buy, what would be better: a7iii or the a6700, I like to shoot race cars and street, so the better af would be nice, but I also prefer the big body and the also bigger evf, what do you think?
Will this version also have waypoint planning, i,e you chose on the map where the drone to fly and what speed and height and it follows the way points ?
thank you for this review, you really covered so many topics! I am excited to use this for travel content mostly, and just hit purchase after watching many reviews including yours. got the fly more combo for $559 from abt 🎉🎉
be careful in provincial or city parks, your map will tell you restricted areas but if it's for personal and non-commercial use you should be good yeah.
