Let's try to keep all the initial impression in one thread so we can share details or question.

Got mine literally 30 minutes ago. Got it activated and did the firmware update, did some basic check to make sure everything is working and put it on charge (74% battery after firmware update). Will take it out at lunch and do some basic recording.

It’s a nice unit. Well made. I really like it, but I think DJI rushed it to market to hit Christmas. Some issues I have;

Story mode was a feature they focused on in marketing, but isn’t even available on launch
Where are the profiles? I can’t find the colour profiles anywhere.
Slow motion mode is fixed at 120fps, is that right?
No actual manual
Where is Night Mode

Not huge issues, but it bothers me that features advertised aren’t there.

Yea, it looks like while they put 1080@120 back in, they also took out a few things that the tester had access to. What I'm surprised is that while quite a few of them mentioned the short distance focusing and  gimbal movement smoothness problem. I haven't heard any problem about the story mode and Colour profiles (and I've watched most of the review/test footage vids). Wonder why they pulled it. Hopefully, they'll be back before Xmas ;-)

Can someone tell me what 'noise reduction' is on the pro settings - I mean I'm assuming it's to do with high ISO noise but what's the actual technical details of this.

Also - how the hell can I get my files off this thing without pulling the card or using my phone? Can't a USB-C cable to my Mac see the OP as a drive?
