Man I am so Excited! Actually put it up in the air just now. Took some stills but didn't shoot video, don't know why. Got it back on the charger for now. Just ordered two more batteries, what is your experience of the drone battery life compared to the controller battery life? just thinking if...

Started getting this message today, Err when I press the shutter. Cleaned the contacts, updated the firmware, tried different lenses but still getting the message. It takes an image but also will not go into live view, and yes I did reset it to factory, still no joy. Any suggestions? I started...

Got the Phantom 3 in today, everything is charging, did you go through the proper battery conditioning on yours? Had to modify the hard case a tad but a dremmel with a sanding wheel cuts through the foam insert easy, needed to enlarge the holes where the motors recess into because I installed...

took the next step and bought a dji phantom quad copter, is anyone else playing with the photography aspect of these things? Crashed mine in a river yesterday but going to fix it and get back on the horse "copter" so to speak.

Years ago I had some all metal connectors to attach the strap to the camera. They had a hook type end that would fit into the strap lugs on the camera body and a threaded barrel that would tighten down on the hook, sorry but it is hard to describe. Has anyone seen anything like that lately? If...

From Alaska with love.

This is sort of a lessons learned post. I shot a dance performance last night (sort of), Glad I have a second chance tonight. Had everything set up, 1080 30fps, shutter at 1/60, auto iso (still get some blown areas but not to bad), battery going out at 40 minutes into the 90 minute performance...

Not ready to make the shift to CC just yet. I hace Photoshop CS6 and had Lightroom 5. Did the upgrade to LR6 (last stand alone) yesterday. I still lean towards stand alone and was a little disappointed to find the stand alone does not include the Haze removal tool. Here is a plugin for this that...

Is anyone using this slider? I purchased it to do the Ken Burns effect on a web sites and notice a degradation in picture quality. I am wondering if I should use images that are slightly larger than my desired output size if it is increasing the image size to create the effect and that is where...

Enjoying Alaska, phone pic this morning between Seward and Anchorage, going to Denali tomorrow.

Got a new pc to hopefully speed up processing. i7 4790 3.6Ghz, 32GB Ram and 2 GB Video ram, 2TB Hard drive, windows 8.1. I will be replacing the power supply with a 750 w and adding a second 4 TB hard drive. I am doing a lot of real estate photography and doing a lot of photomatix fusion, wow...

Two weeks to my Alaska Cruise departure. I am also doing the land tour which includes Denali. Carry bag restrictions are 17 X 14 X 4. This rules out my Pelican case (way to large anyway}, Lowepro back pack (too large) and smaller Lowepro Stealth reporter (too small) and I want to take my D810...

Is anyone doing drone videography for commercial purposes ie real estate photography? I am reading the FAA is restricting the use of drones and video, what is this country coming to? Curious if anyone has any experience in this subject?

Let me try this again, here are my favorites: Nothing better than a cute cowgirl on a great horse.

Here are some of mine:

Is anyone using wordpress and woothemes specifically the Sentient Theme, I sure could use some help. Thanks

I have been asked to video a dance performance that will last 3 plus hours. What would you knowledgeable folks recommend for camera settings and to later burn to a dvd. I had problems getting a 1 hour video to burn to a dvd, had to save it to flash and then burn it. Any suggestions appreciated...

It just takes a little googling, there are also some youtube videos on the setup. The best place to begin is the qdslrdashboard site. Here are some pics of it hooked up to the D810, worked the same with the D800. Uses the usb cable that comes with the cameras. You can also give the app a try by...
