You're absolutely right about how great DJI's night mode is. I spent a couple of weeks capturing night shots in downtown Seattle, especially of Christmas lights, and got fantastic results for the video I just posted. Thumbs UP for your video!

Great tips! I’ve been trying a bit of night drone flying with the DJI Mini 3 Pro and it is an excellent drone but you do need to tune it a little to get the best results.
Korea is currently not free to fly at night, but it is a video that will be helpful if we fly at night😁😁

hey there, great vid! Do you use any nd/cpl/lpr filters?
are you using "NEAT VIDEO" plug into clean up some of the noise?
@SeanAlami
Жыл бұрын
Aah Hell Nah brother
During pitch black times you can use Mist filters in the city or light pollution reduction when in the middle of nowhere - but you will need very long shutter speeds to see stuff. So filming at night in the middle of nowhere is fine for time lapses. Even Sonys FX3 or FX6 will fall apart at night without light but the tally in the middle of nowhere. But a time lapse at a place where you can see stars with LPR might give you some significantly visible earth rotation, which is incredibly satisfying if you have a drone that can stay in the air for a very long time like the Air 3. Make your time lapse to take as long as possible in these scenarios - you will also need a shutter speed of at least >1s.
If I wasn't convinced about the mini 3 pro before, I definitely am now

Im torn.. I was going to get the Mavic 3 pro but this is showing me that I can get away with the mini 3 pro .. I have a gig I do twice a year where its best to shoot at night/twilight because its a county fair.. I wish I had it last night as I was shooting it again . My current drone is a Phantom 4 Pro (yes an old bird) and Im counting the days when I can upgrade. I want the 2 S for the 360 camera option from Insta360. But that will have to wait :) BTW TOTALLY JEALOUS of your shots. Amazing and breathtaking. As a lover of architecture your shots blew my mind..

this video 60 fps ? or a lower shutter speed? i kind of like the cleaner movement. looks good
Great tutorial. Went to see your Instanbul video, might I suggest you put your links at the end further along so we can enjoy the full video without the overlay placeholders.
Noob question: Did you used any nd filter during those flights over the blue mosque?
2 questions, can you switch to a black & white mode for nighttime? & was that mosque the one that used to be a Church until taken over. Called the "Eye of Sophia) once of Constantinople, one of the greatest Roman cities,

Also, any advantages in quality shooting H.264 vs H.265? I notice much smaller file sizes with H.265. Which do you recommend? The quality of your shots are outstanding. Would really appreciate any info. Thanks!
