Hi,

I would like to suggest some improvements for the next firmware update:

1. Let users choose if they want to store Low Resolution Files (LRF) or not. It eats space in the card and if we're sure we don't plan to use it, why do so? I do wonder if saving the LRF file is taking up additional processing and that processing, if we choose to not save LRF's, could be used instead to film in higher resolution than 1080p in slowmotion for example.

2. Change the folder structure so that if we choose to save the the LRF file, it has .MP4 extension, Perhaps create a LRF folder where the files with the same filename as the full resolution ones are stored, or, better still, add _LRF to the filename, so that all LRF files will end up with _LRF.MP4

3. Allow users to choose timelapses to save only in LRF as a .MP4 when saving JPEG+Video or RAW+Video.

Thank you.

Very good suggestions!
I'm about to buy a P2 mainly for (motion) timelapses.
How do you like the P2 for that?

Hi, I really like the Pocket 2. I like the do it all handle, integrated microphone and wider field. I'd suggest to definitely get the creator combo.

I'm thinking about getting the regular package first.
I don't need the wireless mic, so it is mostly about the do it all handle.
I figured I better start filming now and save more to get the do it all handle after some months.
Not 100% sure, but that is a bit of a plan for me.

Cool. In my case, all my filming is done with the Pocket 2 (and the pocket 1 before that). That includes vlogging, b-roll (see below) etc. So the built in wireless mic was great as is the wider field of view. I use my iPhone for a few cool effects like filming in wet conditions like watering a bonsai tree or with the stage lights effect in portrait mode.

Wow, that actually looks superb.
I like the DOF you are getting with the P2 as well.
What Freewell filters do you have?

I have the original wide angle lens from Freewell and that gives a slightly better wider view than the DJI one that comes with the Pocket 2 (not sure if only with the creator combo or standard) but not by far. I also have a ND filter set from Neewer, cheaper than Freewell and they are fine. Lastly, I have a macro lens from Ulanzi that I am quite happy with. I used it in several of the close ups.

Nice.
I will store this for possible future purchases
