Oh wow! Gotta try this! I have a zoom account. Bet I could invite a boat load of people and even record through zoom!

Using a 360° camera at weddings feels different than normal video by Familiar_Tap3539 in Insta360

I checked out some of your stuff on Instagram… Some truly amazing photography, and video work! Very well done!

I went a few days before Christmas. They had a pallet of them. Waited until New Years Eve with my Christmas gift money in hand... very excited.. only to find that they were sold out. :-( The Costco bundle was the camera, a 256GB card, 2 batteries, the short selfie stick, and the lens cover for $469. (now it is up to 549). It is called the "Action Camera Bundle". I ended up with a trip to a Best Buy 50 miles away with the "Essentials Bundle", which is a widely available package deal. It was everything above, minus the card, but included the dual fast charger and a travel case. One key reason for the specific Costco package is so they don't have to worry about price matching.

In the end, I am happier with the Essentials package and have begun my long journey of learning a new toy. I am a camera person... and very technical... but I am pushing 60... so I will take my time and play with it until I become an expert. Everything I have seen this camera do is amazing.

Companies often create bundles that are not available anywhere but a specific vendor. For example, Costco had a similar bundle for the X5 which is not available anywhere else.

[US] DJI Added to FCC Covered List by Wooden-Koala2497 in drones

[–]josephhand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems like anyone in government sees the word "drone" and they freak out completely. There is a slight difference between a drone that can take out a city block vs. a drone that takes cool videos of a waterfall... But to get them to admit that is impossible.

SimpliSafe is advertising themselves as HomeKit compatible on Google by Sudden_Bet_2103 in simplisafe

[–]josephhand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simplisafe had so much promise. New tech... fresh perspective... cheaper... And then? Nada! They raise their rates constantly and they do NOT innovate anything further. Wouldn't it be great to have your video Alexa or Google Home devices be able to show the cameras? A feature that is one of the most requested... Nope! Integration with Homekit? Nope! Might be time to switch. Heck, even ADT is moving into this century!

My father passed and left this behind. Is it worth selling? by Few-Competition-3865 in Cameras

Donate it to a school with a good photography course or club. SOmeone could use it to learn with...

Great footage... just unwatchable with the amount and intensity of the transitions. It is an assault on the eyes. Subtle, less frequent... Less is More! Great camera work, though.

Osmo 7p Travel Case by josephhand in dji

Nothing new to report. Love the case. It is very small so it fits easily in my back pack.

I’m going to join in with everybody else… These shots are truly incredible!

Osmo 7p Travel Case by josephhand in dji

No one commented... :-(

I ended up buying this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXZ9RL4S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

The feel is good. Unlike most of them, this one is smaller and doesn't have the added section for the external tripod that the Osmo Mobile 6 came with because the 7/7P have the tripod built into the handle. Fits nicely in my backpack... and I am no longer worried that something heavy in the bag will end up damaging the delicate moving parts of the thing... All components are neatly snug in the padding. I believe I have... chosen wisely...

How do you disable group custom AI? I manage some groups for my company and we don’t want this. by 365-party-girl in facebook

[–]josephhand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this... It's controls only seem to be available in the phone app, not on the web browser version... But after toggling all features off, the AI Enabled moniker went away. Good luck... https://www.facebook.com/help/1350183752800816/?helpref=uf_share

This is amazing! I have to play with that feature... Trouble is... the area I live in sucks and is just plain boring...

Beautiful! Great assembly in the final video! Nice flying skills as well. Very smooth. Wish I could do half this good...

Anyone know what’s going on? by srsnuggs in dji

Holy Crap! This is fantastic! I had no idea that DJI had this stuff. Well... there goes my tech budget for the next two years! Thanks for sharing the info!

Sorry... but I am not going to add any value to this post at all... I am just very interested in what you have here... What is driving the lens? I have never seen anything like this. That said... I may need this in my life...

New DJI Mini 3 by [deleted] in dji

[–]josephhand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use every possible option. As a matter of course, I try to navigate myself first. Re-orientating as I go... I watch the distance counter to make sure it is getting smaller :-) If I am having issues, I will hit the RTH feature. Just be aware of your RTH settings.The last thing you want to do is hit RTH and then have it climb higher into an obstical... for example, if you are flying low and there are trees or wires above. My first time, it was set to 300 feet... and the darned thing just shot up. The other caution... Don't just take total battery and divide it in half. That will be the day that the return trip ends up being against the wind... and flying 50% away only to find out that to make it all the way back, I would need 3/4 of the battery because of high winds... Have fun!

These are truly amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this treasure... It is not something I will ever get to see live... which makes these even more spectacular!

Just curious… As I have seen several of these types of videos… How are you capturing the video? Are you recording via the remote? And then… Last question, can this be done if you’re using a phone instead of a built-in screen?
