Yes I know. I am one of your customers! What Power Board have you settled on with all these SkyJibs that you are assembling? FC etc. appears to be a standard MK stack on this one with a CS mount.

With an HDMI converter? Which camera?

It wasn't a dig guys, it was very much tongue-in-cheek to disguise my envy !! EDIT: I haven't been bugging GM because I haven't really been using the PL. To be frank, I don't really see any great improvement over the MK FC camera control. If you fly really carefully the horizon stays pretty...

So Krleas, I have to ask. What is it really like to have a bottomless pit of money to try out every single new high end toy that comes out? :dejection:

I was really only commenting on the TS effect itself, not so much the photo subject - although I entirely agree with Jes1111 that the TS bokeh effect has been somewhat over-exaggerated and that the chosen angle is too square, but then again, with such a dull building it is an art to make a silk...

Even with photos there is an issue when using an HDMI converter. I don't know how universal this is but it certainly affects the NEX-5n and the GH2. Remote shutter release is disabled when the camera is left in Auto-Focus with the HDMI connected. Switch to Manual Focus and remote shutter works...

Forget that. I have one that only 'half-works' too, useless junk. Get one of THESE. It is MUCH smaller, very light and it works. View THIS POST to see pics of it installed on the MR.

Nice set up ? With all due respect it looks a godawful, infested mess. The camera plate is set far too low. The tilt pivot should ideally be through the middle of the lens - as should the roll - and just what the hell are all those cables absolutely everywhere? But if it gets the job done...

Surprising how quickly the tilt-shift effect has become tired.

If you took the 'Free Shipping' option ... find a lengthy project to keep yourself occupied for a month. It took so long I was starting to think it was a scam site. It took over month for them to stick it in the post, but then it arrived within four days. Pics below show it mounted. I didn't...

Really nice vids gents. Aside from the ever increasing quality of videos being shown on these pages this is fast becoming a huge resource for melodic and tasteful instrumental music !!

Yes, as with everything there is a pain-in-the-butt element and with this it is the USB power socket. I have taken out the row of phono sockets and hardwired a three-way radio cable to feed it with 5volts and take out the video using the Iftron Stinger transmitter camera socket. This is far and...

Quite the contrary. Through the lens monitoring is PRECISELY what I want - whether for video or photo - and is precisely what I was going on about in that post. Fortunately both are now available to me with this new mini HDMI converter, although they should have been available all along if the...

I now get Live-Preview from the GH2 HDMI output through a new HDMI converter. Evidently the HDMI converter was to blame all along. My thanks go to whoever it was who posted THIS LINK to this petite, plastic cased HDMI converter. It is perfect. Small, light, cheap and it works.

I never saw this thread so apologies for being a bit out of date. I have a Nex-5n and a GH2. They are both supposed to be 5D alternatives for the MR's, without the flight crippling weight. First I got the Nex-5n because everyone said it was so super and I was immediately unimpressed with its...

@ stpfl Great Stuff! Your vids get better and better.

Ahh, the innocence of the uninitiated. Waiting for Picloc! Let us know when you have turned blue.

The firmware upgrade notes for 0.88 said an initialization is not necessary from 0.86 - so I didn't. The only issue that has cropped up is this AH business and that appears to have been settled by increasing the minimum gas. It is entirely possible that the WC'ing was due to flipping the GPS...

Appreciate the reply Ruud, but I eventually sent it back. Not sure why I got it in the first place actually. Probably thought it would be cool to have all that data displayed.

Hi Bart, I went out today and did just that. Found the point at which activating AH caused it to start ascending and then backed it off about 10 points. I did this with a 'camera weight' onboard since that is how it will always be. It made a huge difference to both MR's and AH is pretty stable...
