We’ll not get into it here but we have another video analysing the differences between D-Cinelike and D-Log and we arrive at the conclusion that D-Cinelike is the preferred option. In the video above we recommend you set contrast, sharpness and saturation to -1 on the D-Cinelike colour profile.
AUTOPANO PRO DRONE SETTINGS PRO
This has been quite the can of worms since the Mavic Pro was launched so let’s get straight into the answer.

Given that drone filming will take place during daylight hours 99.9% of the time, either set a custom white balance between 5000 – 6000K or use one of the presets by tapping on the sun or the cloud icon but either way, make sure it doesn’t change during the shot by avoiding auto! Style & Color When set to auto, you might see the white balance change during the shot and this is not what you want. Measured in kelvin, we recommend you set a custom white balance so it is fixed throughout the duration of the recording. In a nutshell, you want your whites to look white, not yellow or blue. White balance controls the colour temperature of the image captured by the camera. Peter Jackson tried it with ‘The Hobbit’ shooting at 48fps…how many have done it since…none! If in doubt, we take Hollywood as our reference and trust me, they don’t film realtime at high frame rates. not good! We have become aware on YouTube of a trend for YouTubers to film realtime footage at 60fps. Any higher and the footage in our opinion has a camcorder look about it, i.e. These frame rates give you the motion blur and look the eye is accustomed to. In Europe we use 25 fps for realtime footage and in the US, 24 or 30fps (the former being the cinema standard and our recommendation for you). 60fps? NO! The only reason you would have a higher frame rate is if you were planning on slowing the footage down in post to give you slow motion. There is more confusion concerning the ‘best’ frame rate. So, the higher the resolution the better – stick it on 4K. sharper images, the ability to crop and reposition in post. 2.7k and 1080p) had a higher bit rate and therefore better colour depth for grading in post and such like but in our tests we did not find that to be the case and in our opinion, even if it was the case, the difference would be so minimal that the benefits of higher resolution would outweigh the benefits of higher bit rate (e.g.

There was discussion in some corners that lower resolutions (e.g. In other words, each frame is the equivalent of an 8 mega pixel photo. We’ve all heard of HD and 4K these days, the latter referring to a video in which each frame is approximately 4,000 pixels wide and 2,000 thousand pixels tall. Resolution concerns the number of pixels in each frame of the moving image.
