Love it. First time someone is actually taking time out in the video to explain the settings used and why and also telling you how to get to them. Thank you!
Love this. The first actually clear video on settings that gets straight to the point. Great work. Keep it up!
Awesome dude appreciate it :)
Thank you.... Appreciate the settings!
You're welcome!
Good stuff. Succinct, informative and entertaining. Post more! Loving the Avata2
More to come! Thanks so much 🙌🏼
Great, straight to the point advise! Thank you!
Anytime 💪🏽
Thanks for all the tips. I’m waiting to receive mine 🤩🤩
Amazing man, glad this helped 👊🏽
You are probalby the reason why I will start with fpv drone flying. I am training in simulators like uncrashed and will buy the avata 2 within the next 2 months. Keep up your high quality content. Really appreciate that.
Yo thanks so much legend, great to hear you feel inspired to get started. How's it going in the sim?
@@fabreezy_ Had a remote laying around from my dad and at first I noticed how hard it is to even hover with a drone in acro mode. Now I am getting more preceise in inputs and flying aibilitys everyday. Freestyle and flying in small areas really gives that kick. What I really love about the concept of the Avata 2 is that it is quite fast and responsive and also has a great camera. Seems to be the best fitting product for me
I’ve been using un crashed and it’s been very helpful.
@@samvargasimages7905 Same Here. Uncrashed is really good
True me too
You Da Man Fabreezy 👊🏽💪🏽
Thanks Chris 😎
Such a helpful video!!!!
Thanks homie :)
Thanks for the video sir!
My pleasure!
Danke ☺️ das war so hilfreich ❤
Super freut mich digga :)
Thanks 👌👌👌
Hopefully this was helpful to you 🙌🏼
thanks for everything brother! could you make a video on how to make good reels quality on instagram? like the way you export the files, resolution etc
Brilliant video 👌🏻 about to start using manual mode after sim practice ! Could you do a video & show us how you edit the 4k 30 videos in to vertical mode please for Instagram , your render settings ect
adding it to the list, thanks man :)
Tnx brother 😎 I’ll back to this video when I’ll be able to get avata 2 lmao
Amazing dude, appreciate it and glad its helpful :)
Nice video, very helpful. I just got the RC3 and trying to figure out the best way to fly the avata 2. In terms of camera angle and rates, what are your settings?
Great video, Mr. Fabreezy. Thank you for sharing. QQ: After configuring these settings, does the Avata 2 preserve these settings after powering the drone/google off?
Yes it does, cheers for watching man :)
Great video explaining all that stuff! What do you use as an editing platform please👍
I use adobe and Final Cut
Thank you dude, you've earned a new sub! What do you prefer for the sharpness and noise reduction settings?
Thanks :) I prefer to keep both values at 0
@@fabreezy_ Awesome, thanks bro!
Great video! What settings would you use if shooting a scene where you're flying from outside (in sunny conditions) to inside a building? Thanks!
Depending how dark it inside I would have iso 100 - 400 max to allow for automatic adjustment. Make sure to expose for the highlights
Great tips once again. If you intend to slow it down in post, you go for 60 fps. What about if you intend to ramp up the speed, would you shoot in 60 or 30 fps?
If you plan on ramping up speed for long periods of time i would shoot in 60fps to avoid stuttering. if you just want to speed ramp the end/ beginning of each clip then 30 fps
Thanks so much! Question: what Color profile should I use if I DON'T do post editing? Still D-Log M?
Lastly, what Windows PC software do you recommend for easy post editing?
I would always recommend d Log M, it makes a huge difference. Trust me just spend a little time on learning the basics and you'll be fine :) Alternatively u can of course shoot in the standard colour profile but i havent really used it. Use premier, final cut or davinci for post production
Great video. thanks! Should I use a high shutter speed so that when I use camera tracking software I don't get too much motion blur? does that mean I should also tweak another setting while I am at it?
Generally yes, but I am not very familiar with camera tracking softwares
could you release a color correcting tutorial without using LUTs except ofcours the necessary Dlogm to rec709
Great information mate 👍🏻 what settings on the Avata2 do you suggest for low light sunrise/sunset flights and are you always using a ND8 for these scenarios? Heading to Indonesia next month.
ISO?
EV?
WB?
ND?
Cheers 🤙🏻
It depends how bright it is but I often find myself using the nd8 right before the sun has set. ISO on 200 ev around -0.3 for reference WB probably around 5000 hope this helps
@@fabreezy_ yes it does help mate really appreciate it 🤙🏻 I haven’t really done a lot of sunset/sunrise flights so it’s a good starting point the rest I’ll work out. Thx dude 😊
Does anyone have a go setting on the numbers for the normal mode for indoor flying? Using the stick controller also.
Really appreciate the tips bro!! What settings do you use for your gain/expo in manual?
Everything stock bro, haven’t touched a single thing 😄
@@fabreezy_ cool thanks 🤙🏼
Thank you very much for these very clear explanations ! 🙏I would like to know if in the camera settings you slightly reduce the sharpness of the sensor? (around-2 for example). Also when you film a sunset, do you have to change during filming ND filter? For example going from 16 to 8 ?
I have not reduced the sharpness as I was pretty happy how it looks on 0. You can't change the ND mid flight so make sure to choose the right one before take off. Hard to tell without seeing the sunset but could range from 16 - 8 usually depending how bright it is :)
Thank you very much for your answer and advice ! :) 🙏
How shooting in 4:3 will be better for social media IG stories for example? Do we still need to crop the footage anyway right? Is there a easier way than quickly cropping straight on the Iphone before posting? Cheers and congrats on the great content.
Hey man thanks for watching. When shooting in 4:3 you do not need to crop in post
hello! Thank you for the video. Which software do you use for the video stab?
I use gyroflow
Great video; you explain everything so well 🤩
I hope to use footage from an Avatar 2 with footage shot on mirrorless Canon cameras shot at 25fps for a 25fps timeline.
Do you think I could shoot the avatar footage at 50fps and slow it down to fit my 25fps timeline or will it look toonslow, choppy?
Ty 🙏
Thanks a lot :) I would suggest to interpret the 50FPS footage to 25 within premier pro and then speed it up. If its choppy use the 'optimal flow' function
@@fabreezy_ Thanks so much 🙏
Could u share your expo / rates on the avata 2 for manual mode?
I don't have any, I fly stock settings :)
So in regards to the LUTs pack you have for sale I see 3 settings. If I were to film on a cloudy day, which one would you recommend out of the three that are available?
Most likely daylight, its my most used LUT and works in sunny and cloudy conditions
Fabreezy do you know if I can bind the goggles 3 to the air unit 03? If not, is it going to be possible soon😢?
At this stage this is not possible but I am sure DJI will release an update eventually :)
Whats about Jitter with ND Filter? When Gyroflow compares blured pictures you will have a lot of Jitter so with action 4 or gopro Cams all pros recommend its better to use 90 degree shutter. So 1/120 reduces Jitter when using 30fps compared. to 1/60.
I haven’t had any jitters when shooting at 1/60. I usually find this only happens when shooting at 24fps not 30fps
@@fabreezy_ thanks. ok or it's because of the gimbal mount on the Avata 2. With Action 4 on classical fpv drones or dji avata i have such issues. Also Jello sometimes. But jello is easy to remove. Jitter is not removable. So another advantage of the Avata and sorry for blaming you not using the Avata 2 recently. You did. And you did very good. Tonight i also fly to Indonesia for 3 weeks, but with dji fpv and hero 12 naked and action 4. I think 1/120 will do also for me and i use also all of your settings over a couple of years and they work very well.
As someone who is not familiar with gyro flow and film editing, and is just used to filming and posting on social media, do you still recommend these setting adjustments?
yes the only thing I would change if you prefer to not stabilsie in post is turn on rocksteady
If shoot 4:3 have vignetting when using nd filter?
No vignetting :)
Hi mate, what software do you use to process the video ? I'm gonna get my Avata 2 in a few days and i'm not an expert in video processing.
I use Gyroflow to stabilise the footage and premier pro or Final Cut Pro to edit it
hey, nice video. which program do you use for editing your videos for color grading?
I use premier pro and final cut
thank you🙌
Underexposing the footage won’t bring more noise when pulling those shadows in post? I thought it was better to shoot a bit over and recover the HL than under, at least with the M3P worked that way. Thoughts?
95% of the time I under expose as the shadow recovery rate is much higher in my opinion. I also like a contrasty look so it works very well for me. Recovering highlights is usually harder for me and during the trip to Indonesia I noticed I get better results when under exposing sometimes
@@fabreezy_ Good to know man, I'll give it a try underexposing the image and see how it goes! Thanks for the input and safe travels!
hmm so how about the most important the sharpness and noise reduction, i think also manual is not the way to go if you do any kind of fly trough when the exposure change a lot, the auto works quite well as long as the WB is not on auto
I dont touch them, I want to have full control over denoising or sharpness. Auto is great if you have big changes in light but otherwise always manual
@@fabreezy_ so you should touch the setting as it comes with standard with 0 but sharpness should be set a -2 if you want to have full control as you say, and at least -1 for noise anyway i just find that all of the video saying best cinematic setting have nothing new no test or whatsoever and just trying to sell ND filter and LUT good luck, your first video was more interesting
@@NicolasVoisinFilm this video is based on my experience and and knowledge as I shot with the drone for 11 days straight in various locations. Since you saw my cinematic edit we can probably both agree that my settings were ABSOLUTELY correct and the results speak for themselves. People find value in knowing how I shot all of my videos so this video is not JUST about selling ND filters or luts it’s about giving context as to how I filmed my shots and sharing my knowledge in a concise and straight to the point format.
Is the process to stabilized the footage on gyroflow and than move them into premiere pro? by doing that does not ruin the footage before i’m going to color grade them in premiere? Which is the workflow? Are there some specific settings of export in gyroflow?
Thanks Fabio! 🙏
Great question! Gyroflow does not decrease the quality of your footage at all so don’t worry.
1. Stabilise footage
2. Edit in premier
3. Export
Hope this helps :)
@@fabreezy_ perfect! Thanks, let’s create some bangers! 😎
What software do you use to edit drone footage? Is it DaVinci Resolve?
I use premier pro and final cut
What program do you use to edit your videos?
premier pro and final cut
Are the dji nd filters the only good ones? I see some other brands selling some as well
yes I linked the Freewell ND filters in the description
What program besides GyroFlow do you use to edit your videos from the Avata 2?
Premier pro and Final Cut
@fabreezy_ awesome thank you! Love your videos!!
is there a setting that will auto-level the gimbal left-right? as if you are banking a turn, so it doesn't make it dip on that side? if that makes sense lol
I havent looked into that sorry
I haven't tried it out yet but there should be a stabilization feature called HorizonSteady which should do exactly what you want
What lens profile do you use in Gyroflow? :)
It automatically recognises it
@@fabreezy_ thank you🙌
You filming in 4K 30fps, then your shutter speed must be 1/60 right? Instead of 1/120 or did i missed something😅 great review !❤
That is correct 👍🏽
I only have 4K/30 I don’t see 4K/60 is there something I’m missing ?
How do you stabilize later ?
In gyroflow
I may be doing something wrong but when I set these settings everything gets over exposed and very washed out to the point that I can't see where I'm going at all. Just a white screen. If anyone knows whats going on i could sure use the help please!
edit- Nevermind I think I found the culprit. Culprit is me lol looks like I most likely will need an ND filter to keep the settings in check
you need nd filter only solution. nd filters are a must
What you think liftoff or uncrashed?
I have always used velocidrone so not sure
First lol
Quick on the keyboard, huh? 😄
Why not 24fps (and at 1/50th shutter speed)? Isn't that the "holy grail" of achieving the "cinematic feel"?
Not with FPV imo as it causes too much vibration in the footage and may give it an undesirable ‘blurry’ look
@@fabreezy_ ahh good to know! Appreciate that! This is an EXCELLENT Video!! 👍👍
Amigo EIS Off??????????
there is one more setting that should be considered changing and it`s the sharpness from 0 to -1 seems to be just enough just to get rid of that ugly crisp sharpness..
Interesting I didn’t notice any ugly crispness
@@fabreezy_ I am overreacting a bit when I say "ugly" it is not that ugly of course but I do see a difference when using -1 vs 0 at least on my Apple Studio display.
Settings if you're not using gyroflow please
Exactly the same but with rocksteady on
@@fabreezy_ thanks mate
Dont set it to 30fps for god sake
Now I am waiting for a video about your rates…sensitivity, max rate and expo 🥸
You'd be surprised to hear that I fly stock rates lol
I am 😎 but thanks for the info 👌
Please help with the best rates settings🥹
