This is great, thanks for the notification will download it today. Dolly zoom on POI sounds cool.
Thanks.

One of the small things in the update that I wanted for a while now is they added a small gauge to show where the gimbal is pointing. No numerical read out but its not hard to tell how many degrees it is at.

xmavic · Oct 25, 2018

Yes that guage was badly needed, i see it now very handy. Also, now under camera calibration we have two options. Horizontal adjustment and separate gimbal calibration. Nice.

Has anybody flown with the new app and firmware yet?

Saijin_Naib · Oct 25, 2018

I wonder if the chipset is capable of driving 2.7k @ 60fps... That'd make a hell of a GoPro replacement for me.

I wonder if they will update the user manual sometime for the new features. Or do we have to use trial and (costly) error to see how they work?

IM35461 · Oct 25, 2018

My one indicates no updates.

Perhaps issues found and they have removed it?

Edit: Silly me, need to go to play store first to update app...

TJBC75 · Oct 25, 2018

I was so excited about the new updates I posted a new thread about it! Should have checked the most recent threads first! Sorry!!!!

Here is some information from the french article about the pano function that Augustine pointed out: translated by google translate:

The panoramas!
The Panorama photos will appear - we were waiting for them! On the other hand, it will be necessary to be patient, the update which will add them will be ready for the end of November 2018. Here is the description of Parrot:
• Vertical panorama: the ANAFI Extended nacelle performs a 180 ° movement, a unique function on the market, while the 4K HDR camera with 21MP sensor performs dozens of shots. They are instantly processed and assembled to form one and the same impeccable image.
• Horizontal Panorama: ANAFI Extended rotates on its axis and creates a panoramic image without any other manipulation.
• Panorama Sphere 360: in a few minutes ANAFI Extended rotates 360 ° on its axis while its camera sweeps the scene vertically 180 °.
• Little Planet: Your environment is transformed into a spherical image like a surprisingly levitating planet. You create your own world, simply.
• Tunnel: A spherical image is created. Unlike Little Planet, the sky is here in the center of the image. It's the world upside down.
The Anafi test of Parrot is to read here. News about the Anafi Extended pack is here. The Panorama functions will be offered by software update to all Anafi, not only those in Extended Pack.

I recently updated my Anafi and made a testflight.

My first impressions: absolutely great update!

* Bevore, I had GPS-problems (didn´t get gps signal or lost it) - no more problems so far!
* Tested several flight-modi - everyone worked great (dolly zoom seemed to work better in my case also parabol and so on)
* I tested the updated HDR-mode - I think, now it´s usefull! Normal colours and less noise.

It seems, that our Anafi is growing up!

Now just waiting for the panorama-modes then I´m perfectly happy!

Seems as if now we have WiFi channel 149 (5,745 GHz) available in Europe without Fake-GPS.
Nice!

Jagerbomb52 · Oct 26, 2018

It seems they have lock the option to go higher then 150 meters in flight plan. You cannot go into edit and change it past the default 150 meters. Not a problem for me but some might get upset about that.

That's a shame. There are times that we need to go legally higher than 150 meters.

Before the update the "5 GHz" icon was greyed in settings/network.
Now I can touch it and after a few seconds there was an automatical change to channel 149.
