DJI Mavic Pro - more stunning 4k Demo Footage

More stunning demo footage from my new favourite "always in the backpack" drone. Yes, I did COLOR GRADE most scenes to get nicer color / saturation / temperature. Also did increase the speed on some shots (it's better to fly slow and smooth and speed it up in post later).

Thanks to a tip of a commenter I discovered "proxy editing" in Sony Vegas 13. It's just an option to be turned on. What it does: recode all 4k clips you use for preview - so you can edit and preview SMOOTH, for rendering the final video it takes the 4k raw files of course. This way you can cut 4k footage even on older PCs.

DJI Mavic Pro - Spectacular frozen morning in Austria - an RCSchim XMas Card

Merry Christmas to all - enjoy the holidays! Here's a moving pictures XMas card from Austria. This is the best winter scenery we have here at the moment. Hope to get more snow soon - thanks for your support, thanks to the longtime subscribers and for your feedback guys!

Background:
Had to use this opportunity to fly before work when the many days of foggy, cold weather cleared up today. I didnt know how awesome the light / fog scenery would be when I started (actually I just wanted to test fly the Mavic more since it had some lost connections on my last flight). Turned out so nice that I had to post this instantly!

DJI Mavic - best Aerial Video shots I've captured so far!

I ordered my DJI Mavic from http://Globe-Flight.de (buy it there to support this great shop!). Got it early Nov and wanted to take my time with it and do nice and smooth shots. I was surprised how easy this is with this tiny, foldable 4k drone.

Flight footage filmed with: DJI Mavic Pro most shots in 4k/25, later scenes at the end in 2.7k/25

I will do a full review also - but there are so many out there yet - I dont think many questions are left to answer :) Comments on what to include in my review are WELCOME!!!
In the meantime you can read my article on the Mavic on this Blog (scroll down).
