Hi guys,

I hope you can give me your honest opinion about my video I'm not really sure how to call this issue but image on my video is not sharp like on other 4k videos on youtube.
I don't know if it's a problem with focus my setting or anything else but the edges of the building and shadows are moving around. I can say that after I've uploded that raw file to youtube it looks a little bit better but still it bugging me.
I've tried different settings in different places, day times and it's still the same.


Thanks

Sensor is not the best you can get but with some work you can get is really nice.
Start recording with sharpness +1, lock white balance, use some ND filters to get the correct shutterspeed and keep your eye on exposure.
Your problem might be relate d to the shutterspeed but do look at this topic and scroll down to my posting https://forum.dji.com/thread-94796-1-2.html
So in short, do not let the Mavic do any noise reduction en get the correct settings with ND filter.

Here are the video's that helped me out to get a better picture.
Here about sharpness +1, they do sell noise profiles for neatvideo


This video especially about the flickering, and removing it with neatvideo


Some more examples before and after

So you are saying that there is nothing wrong with gimbal/camera it's rather settings fault?

As I posted in another post, what I thought was stutter was speed over the network. 4K may require more bandwidth than is available, hence the stutter.

Thanks for your input. The OP's message is about flickering happening on their footage. If you select 1080p at Youtube's settings and wait until the video is loaded so you can play  the video without the possibility of issues due to the network.

Have you noticed the flickering in OP's original posted video? Do you have similar flickering on your videos?
I'm just trying to figure out if this is a generic issue for all, or for some specific Mavics.

If the fault was obvious, like the famous focus issue, it would be easier to know if it was Mavic's fault or not.

Seems to be a ripple more than a flicker.
Im not sure using ND filters and and camera adjustments will cure that.
ND filters will fix some of the issues like the slow motion jerky waves and smooth out the overall image, but i think there is something else going on.
At least try with settings that were recommended to see if you can improve it somewhat. ND filters are a must with this camera.

Well, I tried that. It looks that ND could help minimize the flickering but not completely eliminate it.

It my case it was actually worse over the network with 4K. The OP's video, on casual look, wasn't that obvious, but when you look for it, you can certainly see it, more, as someone else said, a stutter rather than flicker.
