Just to add, it kinda tops out at 45mph... bought it for mountain biking / off roading but haven't had a chance to use it yet.

It looked awfully close to some power lines in one shot!

My first Aston. The poor thing sits outside as there's a 32 year old Rolls Royce in the garage that's not seen rain for 26 years.

I may be completely barking up the wrong tree....but did I buy a Boxster from you many years ago? V19 FLY looks familiar smile

It was a GT Silver 987S.

Only just discovered this thread so here's mine....

I know its photo's but took the drone out, playing around with its tracking function, think it does a really good job....

all shot in 4k
Tracking function is excellent and the blue car really stands out. You are dropping a frame per second though starting at 1'11". You can see the regular frame hop. Did you match the shoot frame rate to the edit frame rate to the output compressor framerate? [Sorry busman's holiday here smile ]

I've cut a lot of commercials and the sweet spot for normal feeling extra pace is 120% to 125% - but don't basic render it (interpolated or duplicated etc) - use a trick motion intelligent adaptive one - 'fluid motion' in my (Avid) case smile. Things that are divisible or a multiple of 25 are always better (if you are shooting 25fps).

Is it just me or did anyone else not understand a word of that?

Hats off to your expertise sir.

Every word smile I started my career writing video encoding algorithms for AVC. I can talk for days about content encoding - much to the annoyance of Dorris.

Interesting. This is my area also, not the coding part, but the implementation.
