Thanks all - on recent Antarctica cruise many folks were using small gimbals with their cellphones. The videos I made with Samsung S20 while walking the ship or on the snowy land were still bouncy. My GoPro 10 had a better smoothness look so probably don't need it for that. Also have a small Canon HS740SX with 40x optical zoom that I would use the gimbal on, to help steady tele wildlife videos. Don't want to buy another camera, wife would frown...Looking for a unit that I could use with both cell and Canon.

Take a look at the insta360 Flow gamble or the DJI osmo 6. The insta360 has better tracking and some more features. They both fold small, the insta360 is pocketable when folded. Traveling you want to travel light.

I never mention I did some minor (or major) adjustments to an image unless I get challenged about something.

I got accused of photoshopping this image by adding the plane or whatever.

Adjustments were made with shadows and highlights because the plane was very dark. A slight use of HDR was applied. But I didn't disclose that and didn't feel I needed to.

It's your call. If you feel guilty about it, reveal what adjustment you made and leave it at that.


That is fine art.

Great shot.

Prague is great for photography. I can’t wait to go back, hoping early next year. We are looking to do Prague and Budapest. For some good travel advice in Prague look up the honest guy on YouTube., he has some great tips.

Look up shredding companies like Shred It or Iron Mountain. They shred documents and such for businesses.

Have you looked in the menus to see if there is a setting for auto rotate?

Great capture. How far away were you when you took it? What phone and lens did you use? A real winner.

iPhone 12 Pro Max maybe 20 ft give or take. This owl stayed with us along the trail. The zoom on the phone was maxed, it came out a lot clearer than expected.

Nice capture, especially with your cellphone. Well done!

I have a couple of suggestions for your consideration.

1) The owl, which is the subject, is dark compared to the rest of the scene. This de-emphasizes the subject. Looking at just luminosity, the owl doesn't appear to match the luminance of the rest of the image. Selecting the owl and increasing its midtones to match the owl's luminosity to the rest of the image creates a more balanced exposure. The image luminance is shown in row 1 and the resulting image is shown in row 2.

2) Removing the branch that is going across the owl's chest would better highlight the owl.

Thank you for the input. Those are great suggestions. I posted straight from the camera roll on my phone.

Read somewhere that BestBuy may consolidate more stores. I know the one by me has no camera's just the GoPros and DJI Drones.

Has anyone done the firmware updates for the lens and body for this model. I have tried updating and can't get the bin file to load on the camera.

I downloaded the files it unzips on my Mac. Load just the body update as the instructions say to a reformatted SD card. Turn on the camera, go to firmware and nothing. Tried doing the update for the lens also and nothing.

I just bought the camera, it was a store demo unit. Body firmware v 1.3 new is 1.5 Lens firmware is v 1.2 new is 1.4

Thanks for any help.
