    X5 - best video settings for BBC

    Hi I've got a little job to do locally for a BBC report - I'm currently on the latest firmware - what are the best video settings going to be - I'll be supplying the video to their production team straight out of the camera - I know there have been complaints in the past about D-Log. I've also...

    UK Commercial Viability

    And in my area there are people charging £40 to do aerial photo shoots. And they appear to be CAA certified. The race to the bottom didn't take long. When will people learn about what makes a sustainable business?

    Sensor Cleaning

    As a professional photographer I'd recommend a large bulb blower like the Giottos Rocket - gives nice powerful blast of air that will remove any dust likely to accumulate on the sensor. As there is no mirror or mechanical shutter in the X5 you're unlikely to get oil spots so hopefully wet...

    "The Promise of Agriculture"

    Nice video. Not sure we adequately feed the 7 billion odd at the moment though, I don't imagine that will improve much by 2050 with 9.7billion people.

    Warning to all X5 owners

    Hi - I'm not sure because I haven't seen the item up close but this damage looks like the result of shearing force - side / front on rather than a downward only pull as if a straight down heavy landing or from an impact upwards through the gimbal - my reasoning is that the washer above would be...
