    Camera Comparison with Mavic Pro

    Do you use an ND filter with your Anafi?

    I am giving up unless ..

    There are loads of spare parts for DJI drones on eBay. Since DJI is so common you will also be able to find cheap Chinese spare parts. You will also be able to find lots of teardown guides for DJI showing you how to disassemble them. Go check out some DJI drones in the stores if you can. The...

    4k Cinema and other issues

    It's also kind of hilarious that Anafi offers their P-Log profile but no LUT file to go along with it. You know, something that all the other camera makers do - Sony with their S-Log LUTs, DJI with their D-Log LUTs, etc.

    4k Cinema and other issues

    That's the hope. But right now as it stands the Anafi's clearly not usable for anything serious since it's unable to produce clear footage when using the 180 degree shutter rule. And who knows if the Anafi has the processing power onboard for the computational accuracy to produce clean real-time...

    Shaking footage problem with Freewell Bright Day ND Filters - Parrot Anafi

    I get the same thing. Does the same thing happen when you don't have any filters on the drone?

    ND filters that work with Anafi

    Firmware is a factor in this. On my first Anafi the gimbal couldn't be initialized with the Freewell filters. After updating the firmware the gimbal initialized properly with the filters on, so that was good. And then the motors cut out while it was flying above the ocean but on my second Anafi...

    4k Cinema and other issues

    All the video quality issues are common with the Anafi. I've had two and fuzzy video and the swirling blurring of details is standard. I have no idea how to fix it and my guess is that the smearing of details has to do with the digital image stabilization because the shutter speed should easily...

    More flickering on low light vids

    I think you should be able to guess which one I'm referring to based on the shutter speed related context of my post.

    Crashed the second drone in less than a month.

    Yeah, 400 meters away and behind trees and out of line of sight when they experienced a disconnect. My Anafi was 30 meters away and was still disconnected at *2* meters away.

    Crashed the second drone in less than a month.

    My Anafi has for sure lost connection at 5 meters away from the controller. When it flew itself into a tree I was only 5 meters away frantically trying to get the controls to work while flying it in the middle of the outback in Australia (aka the middle of nowhere). When it lost connection...

    More flickering on low light vids

    You should be using the proper ND filters for the situation. If you're shooting 60fps, use an ND filter that will bring the shutter speed to 1/125s. If 30fps, 1/60s. This is for the standard "filmic" look used in the industry for general shooting called the 180 degree rule. If the digital...

    Anafi Stopped and Crashed

    Same thing happened to mine as well. Lifted off, got to maybe 20 meters, then the motors just shut off and it fell. No interfernce around. No way to buy replacement arms. Full battery. I bought the drone in the USA but am in Australia and they only send replacements to the USA, despite being...

    Just get a DJI with occusync like the Mavic Pro or Pro 2 or Pro Zoom and you won't have disconnect issues. The Anafi connection is a joke that's on par with the Mavic Air. See review above.

    Crashed the second drone in less than a month.

    This reviewer even has issues with the Anafi WiFi and flies it into some shrubs at 2:56 when comparing it side by side with the Mavic Air at the same location. Both get wifi interference because they're using "enhanced wifi" but the Air doesn't almost kill itself by losing all controls as the...

    Why is the 4K Anafi video quality so blurry and smeared?

    Well, keeping the framing locked isn't necessary. Even with movement, having a fast shutter speed will freeze motion and allow for a non-blurred image. Anything 1/250s and faster will accomplish this. 1/125s can be acceptable even, especially during a gentle panning motion. The amount of...
