Why o why can't we have h.265 on our mavic air?  I do believe that the h.264 codec does something with intraframe compression giving us a really annoying flicker frame every 8 frames.  I looked it up and apparently using neat video gets rid of it (i am testing now but it takes around 10 minutes to render about 10 seconds of footage so that sucks.  Is there another way of solving this flicker problem, it make it quite hard to watch the footage sometimes.

You have an anti-flicker option in the camera settings. Choose between 50Hz and 60Hz depending on your region.

That only works if there are powered lights involved. I'm talking about the flicker that appears in a lot of the footage in natural light.  Since posting this i have done a couple of tests and it looks like it may be related to a fast shutter speed not adhering to the 180 degree rule.  Neat video kind of fixes the issue but that is such a slow workflow.  I find it quite hard to stick to the 180 degree rule even with nd filters as it depends on what direction i'm facing and where abouts i am in the landscape.
