Re: One disc or two
One of the best business decisions I've ever made was to include a custom engraved USB drive instead of DVDs with each wedding. I was really concerned that brides would complain that they weren't...

Re: DJI Osmo for Weddings?

Re: DJI Osmo for Weddings?
Corey, that's really cool to hear that you like the Osmo with the X3. Do you feel like the footage will match footage shot on a DSLR? How is the dynamic range? When you walk with it does it look...

Re: DJI Osmo for Weddings?
There is definitely more to low light performance than sensor size, but a 1/2.3" sensor is going to produce noisy footage at every reception venue I know of. To expect it to be "great in low light"...

The person who made the post about the Osmo being unusable in low light must have had no idea what type of camera he was getting. If he does in fact have the X3 then this is essentially a GoPro and...

Art, I think you make some really great points. I'm personally looking at the Osmo with the X3 because it's REALLY lightweight and also looks like there's very little setup involved.

Re: DJI Osmo for Weddings?
From what I've seen online, the image quality on the X5 camera didn't impress me much and I don't think it would compare very well to the A7s II. Here is a video showing how the X5 compares to the...
