    Im torn.. I was going to get the Mavic 3 pro but this is showing me that I can get away with the mini 3 pro .. I have a gig I do twice a year where its best to shoot at night/twilight because its a county fair.. I wish I had it last night as I was shooting it again . My current drone is a Phantom 4 Pro (yes an old bird) and Im counting the days when I can upgrade. I want the 2 S for the 360 camera option from Insta360. But that will have to wait :) BTW TOTALLY JEALOUS of your shots. Amazing and breathtaking. As a lover of architecture your shots blew my mind..

  • @disco.jellyfish
    @disco.jellyfish Před měsícem

    During pitch black times you can use Mist filters in the city or light pollution reduction when in the middle of nowhere - but you will need very long shutter speeds to see stuff. So filming at night in the middle of nowhere is fine for time lapses. Even Sonys FX3 or FX6 will fall apart at night without light but the tally in the middle of nowhere. But a time lapse at a place where you can see stars with LPR might give you some significantly visible earth rotation, which is incredibly satisfying if you have a drone that can stay in the air for a very long time like the Air 3. Make your time lapse to take as long as possible in these scenarios - you will also need a shutter speed of at least >1s.
