I have found that none of the balancing rings from DJI are perfect. I agree that when you change the level of zoom the weight shifts. I found that most of the noise/vibration is coming from the zoom itself and not the gimbal. If I go from 14 to 42 the lens itself keeps the motor engaged like it...

JEsseg138, thanks for the reply. I should note that the focus problems are happening most often with the 15mm DJI lens. I have been setting the zoom lens in manual in GO but they still do not look sharp even after calibration. I have never heard of UGCS. I found that GSPro also let you set the...

Do you use the z3 for mapping? I have read somewhat poor reviews on the camera. I know it has a smaller sensor and less pix then the x5. The zoom is about the same but the x5 is optical were the z3 is 2x optical and the rest is digital, right? It would be nice to get what I have to work...

I would love to sell the zoom lens but it has it uses. I am able to remotely check trap lines during our predator control work. Zoomed out (14mm) I can figure out where I am related to the point and then zoom in to make sure the leg hold or snare is still set. I will work on getting the 45mm to...

So I have found myself with a conundrum at work. First off background. I study beach nesting birds. We deiced to test whether we can more efficiency, more accurately, and more safely count colonial bird nest with a drone then we currently do. Currently we have ~6 people walk transects through...

From what I understand Oly 14-42 lens calibration only calibrates to the zoom level (mm) you are on during calibration. Many people suggest setting infinity in the middle range. But what I am finding is usually when using the lens I am taking photos at 42mm so I calibrate accordingly. I hope...

Sorry I am just now getting back to this. It is odd, most of the time I do not get the noise anymore on start up. But I still have the noise coming out of the lens like you do when zooming. It seems the motor is stuck and trying to zoom even tho I'm at 42mm. I have found if I zoom slower and...

Hello All, I can seem to find this anywhere, so sorry if I am repeating. I really enjoy the 14-42 lens for what I am doing. I wish I had a little more reach. I don't need it for photos/video but just for view purposes. I can pitch digitally zoom on my tablet when I am at 14mm but when I zoom...
