Hello all

What is going on here? I updated the battery firmware yesterday and flew fine now im getting this voodoo in the video feed.

Cheers!

Over exposure warning stripes, you can turn this off in camera settings

Is whatever you're filming, perhaps very bright?

Do you happen to have the Over Exposure Warning on? It's in the Camera Menu under Settings.

Strange that no one suggested to put the camera back on auto-exposure, or to manually lower the exposure.

Here's my observations:

• As others have mentioned, you have the over-exposure indicators turned on, which shows the portions of your image that are over-exposed as white, diagonal lines.
• You have also turned the exposure-compensation dial (the wheel you can turn with fingertips on your right hand while holding the remote) to +3.0, a full 3 stops of over exposure. So even if you have your settings to automatic exposure, you have asked it to add another 3 stops (3 stops more light coming in through the lens).
  

Solution: while watching the screen and the over-exposure number of 3.0, turn the dial with your right finger tips until the 3 rolls down to 0. Watch the lines slowly disappear, for the most part.

Any lines that are left over are naturally occuring over-exposure, meaning that the auto-exposure in the camera can't even out the exposure of the entire screen, because the difference between the darkest and brightest portions of the screen is too large (too much dynamic range between full black and full white). The fix for that is to decide what is more important in the image you're taking, the details in the brighter portions, or the details in the darker portions. That dial for exposure-compensation is what allows you to chose, like so:

• Make the over-exposure setting a minus number (-1.0, -1.5, etc.) to reduce the over-exposure and bring back highlight details, but the dark areas will turn darker, losing details in the shadows.
• If the details in the shadows are more important than the details in the bright areas, make the over-exposure setting a positive number (1.0, 1.5, etc.), bringing out the shadow details, though at the expense of blowing out the highlight details.
• TIP: You may have heard of HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography. At it's simplest form, it's basically taking a shot with the highlight details and one of the shadow details, then mixing it together in software to form a single image that has all details, almost as if you had that full dynamic range when you initially took the shot. More complicated forms of HDR is just taking more than two shots, each with different exposures to combine in software later.

Thanks guys, it was the over exposure warning. Turned it off and all good now, noob that I am.

Cheers!
