Hello,

I bought the ProRes license and the 480 SSD, and it works fine shooting 4K, but won't let me shoot 5K.
Any ideas, or do you need to buy the Raw/DNG license to shoot 5K?

Thanks,

michael

Hi Michael

Yep - according to this specs table you need to have ProRes.

But it's a little bit confusing so I can't give you a 100% answer - can a DJI employee chime in maybe?

ProRes does not shoot 5.2k in 16:9, or 17:9.. go to 2.44:1 and you will get 5280x2160. Thats the closest you will get with ProRes. otherwise its 3840x2160 (16:9) or 4096x2160 (17:9)

So you are correct, 5.2k (5280x2972) at 16:9 is only shot in RAW.

Thank you, Gybo, that is really helpful!

In addition to Gybo's post, you have to make sure you are filming in the correct FPS and bitrate as well.
