Never owned a drone before but have done lots of model flying.

Took about an hour to sort updates etc and flew the next day. Absolutely flawless for every flight since. Stills are perfectly adequate for magazine work (I'm a pro photographer and got it to supplement shots in my articles) and video is great.

Had a few goes around my house but  there are too many BIG trees to feel comfortable about flying too far away. Went to a friend's farm for main test. Wasn't using any of the tracking modes, I found in the end it was easier to just fly it manually. Still need to fine tune my tilting technique though. have adjusted gimbal and yaw speed since.

Shot at 2.7k 25p on Art mode with -2, -3, -3 and graded in Resolve (very quickly... Need to work on a good LUT for it) and output at 1080p 25.

There's a sample RAW shot here from the same session DJI_0017.dng

Very nice! You've restored my faith in the Mavic's video quality, after seeing so many soft/out of focus YouTube clips.
