Hello all you Mavic owners.  Here is a video I put together using the Mavic Pro, Osmo with the X5 and my brothers GoPro 4.  Please let me know what you think...any constructive criticism would be appreciated.  This is in St. Elmo, Colorado.  This is a 4X4 run this past fall (9-17-17) and would like for you all to enjoy and commit.

WOW !  That was a great video.  Amazing location(s), great variety of scenes, wonderful music.  As I watched it, I was struggling to find something (anything) to offer you as a suggestion.  I did come up with just one thing.  I read a great book recently about making videos, and one of the points made in that book was "don't be afraid to cut".  With that in mind, there were a handful of places in your video where the camera lost focus for just a moment or two.  What if you had cut those parts out of your video?  My book's author would have said, "Our minds would easily make the location jump from the place you stopped to the new place you started".  Anyway, that's my one and only thing that I can think of to offer your GREAT video.

Thanks.  I had fun making this video and editing it.  Took me a while but finally got it done.  I agree, don't be afraid to cut.  I see so many videos (GoPro and others) that the scene just drags on forever!  I know about the out of focus places and it is that dam Osmo that will not focus as I move, can't focus manually otherwise the camera moves too much and its hard to watch.  I don't know what to do with it to help keep that focus were I want it.  I do thank you for the input.

DJI Grace,  I was wondering if anyone would notice that.  I really tried hard to capture the sprinkles in the water and clearly (get it?) it worked.  Thank you for taking notice.

Nice video! Did you use a lens cover of any kind on the drone during wet shooting?

Yes, I used a PolarPro ND8 for all of the shots

Thank you.  If you are referring to the last shot, were it was snowing, then no, I did not.  It was such a light snow that I felt that I did not need that cover.  When I was using the Osmo when it was sprinkling, I did not have any covers for that either.  Just free handed it quickly then wiped it down after I was done.
