    I am looking to get a DSLR or video

    I have a Nikon d850 and many lenses which I bought for still photography. I also have an increasing interest in video. I have tried filming with my Nikon and not really managed to achieve very good results. I bought a DJI Ronin S gimbal which does help steady the shots. Focus in bright light is...

    X5S camera lens options

    Thanks for your feedback on the Olympus 25mm. I had been thinking it might be just the right lens between the 15mm and 45mm. It also gets very good reviews as a ground photography lens. You have just swung me into spending more! Ian

    X5S camera lens options

    Panasonic LUMIX G X Vario PZ 14-42mm Pancake/Zoom Tip

    To help balance the Panasonic 14-42 zoom I bought a 37mm to 46mm stepping up ring for a few £'s from ebay and added the 46mm balancing ring from the DJI 15mm kit lens plus a 46mm UV filter and it balanced about half zoomed. The 46mm rings don't effect the zooming action. Different amounts of...

    Panning X5S with DJI Goggles

    I recently moved up to an Inspire 2 with X5S from a Phantom 4 Pro. I've discovered how to pan the camera, not from DJI's instructions but from this excellent forum. Question can the DJI Goggles be used to pan camera? Any other hints using goggles and Inspire 2 would be useful
