Thank you. Yes the first anafi had problems with the Freewell ND. They did not initialize correctly, The gimbal was hanging with the ND so they had to be positioned once the gimbal was initialized what I didn't like at all even doing it carefully. I had a few mails at that time with freewell and...

Ok thank you very much for your opinions and advice. I thought this was because the windy conditions although i don't get this with my djis but again the Anafi is much lighter. With total still conditions I don't get any jitter but with light breeze I also get small jitters every now and then. I...

I just uploaded 2 videos shot a few days ago so you can see what happens when the Anafi confronts a windy situation. Please look at it at 4k or 2k to see how bad the footage really is. Footage straight out the drone with any retouch work. I can tell you that my P4P or Mavic Air are much...

I am telling my experience not making a review . Yours might be different. My experience is that videos filmed with the Anafi on windy days have a terrible jitter compared to those made with DJI (in my case Phantom 4 Pro and Mavic Air). Noise is not terrible but higher than the mavic air and...

Yes You are right I meant 2 axis mechanical stabilization. Hope a version 2 will be 3 axis mechanical.

That has been my experience too. Impossible to get usable footage with strong wind. I think that it is mostly the digital 2 axis stabilization that ruins it but might be wrong. I could fly with my mavic air with the same winds and perfect footage. Anafi has a lot of limitations but the weight is...

I am or have been an owner of a Phantom 4 Pro mavic air Anafi and in a few days a mavic 2 zoom. The video quality of the Anafi is lower to the dji drones. First and most important is the stabilization of the 2 axis gimbal. If you fly with wind forget to film the digital stabilization will ruin...

Ok. Whatever the reason, my anafi goes back. I hope the new one has not this issue that plagues also many other users.......

#26 "A) some gimbals don't accept any filters because of their weight." Did I get lost in your clear statement ?

Not in my case. :-( I found this. I am also inclined to think it is NOT a weight issue

You are lucky. Wish I had an Anafi with more tolerance to make it work. I have the option to return it and see if I hit the jackpot. In any case it seems more europeans are affected than americans by this "tolerance issue". You are right to be careful if you put it on when the drone is active...

I am not really sure that it is a weight problem. Those freewell filters are very light and the motors of the gimbal are quite powerful. But the fact that they touch the back once initiated might be the problem. I have ordered this and will see how they go. Not holding my breath but putting on...

Thank you for the information. I will have to go this route till I find a set of filters that works before initialization. No NDs is no choice for me. And having to put them on and of carefully everytime I fly (independently of the possible damage to the gimbal) is really a nuissance. There are...

I put them before. Fitting them after has two risks. The initial calibration will be wrong as you now have added weight that is not taken into account and also touching the camera with the gimbal on can damage the motors easily if you are not extra careful.
