I think you will find similar on 90% of YT videos, its more to do with YT than your M3.
jmb63 Posted at 11-17 07 16 Although you are correct about the YT compression, etc, I was curious so I spent the time to download and view those few SOC images and videos that were posted by one of the influencers early reviewers Billy Kyle I think. I already contacted DJI support and after 1 hour their final answer was that they will send my issue to a specialist who will contact me that was 3 days ago.
Little does she know that this stocking has the power to grant her deepest wishes. Throughout the story, Lindsey starts making wishes and witnessing the magic of the stocking. For instance, she wishes for a white Christmas - and the next morning, she wakes up to a winter wonderland outside her window.

Yeah it’s there in many of the videos I have seen from the Mavic 3. Looks like bad scaling with temporal alias. Maybe it’s got something to do with scaling down from full sensor to 5K or the 70% cropped 4k-120 setting. Basically all finer details appear to flicker slightly with slow movement. Not sure why.
This is a sample of a footage I shot yesterday. You can notice the jitter in the crossroad while the drone fly to the right. Its not smooth. To unexperienced eye, it could seem ok, but I believe this is not good enough for professional use especially its more noticeable in some scenarios . I think its worse while flying slow.

| I agree, The majority of the video I have taken the time to look at has had some shuddering and some rolling moire, and even some weird artifacting. The only ones that look great are the pro-res captures with who knows how much processing. There are only a few video examples that I have seen that were smooth and worth all the hype. But, we have to keep in mind that the Mavic 3 is a work in progress and will improve?? |

Thanks for your reply.
I have the drone for 3 days now and I have checked the raw footage, Unfortunately the jittery exists. Maybe it become worse on yt but the problem does exist. On the other hand, you can find footages from drones on yt and they are smoth.

Although you are correct about the YT compression, etc, I was curious so I spent the time to download and view those few SOC images and videos that were posted by one of the "influencers/early reviewers" ( Billy Kyle I think? ) and they were rough.
But I expect better as they refine the cameras.

You might have a problem. Check SD card Check props, Ive just got mine and weather is pretty bad here to test, but I will soon and report if there is a problem. Most videos I’ve seen on you tube are edited so its not really going to show on YT. Can you post this footage and maybe you’ll get some opinions.

Most dji drones and cameras improve greatly over time, but if the footage is unusable then its a case for returning the drone.

Thanks for your reply.
I have recorded it to the internal storage to eliminate any variable that could cause the issue.
Where do you want me to upload the footage to?
| Yeah, but wanted to avoid uploading to a server that renders the video |

If the footage is jittery we should still see it.
This is probably the most boring and ugly footage, but sometimes that's work.

Should have been 1/100s by 50FPS - unless I didn't notice now the Fly App reset something after restarting (like it does with ISO)

So I believe it might be best to do some further testing at night and day using correct shutter if you have movement in your footage, otherwise if there is no movement then you can use whatever shutter you need or choose.

I have experienced the same issue, after reading a bunch of articles and change settings in my new drone even buying an expensive SD card the video is not smooth, I have played it in different computers since I read that one of the problem could be your pc but the result is the same, an annoying footage.

I see it on the roundabout, it’s definitely not in the trees, the trees are a bit mush but thats down to a lower 720p standard on this foru., I’m just wondering is it the light or you tube artifact, I have watched both cine and standard footage on YT and most are fine in fact I have seen some really great stuff played in 4k and 5k which I can view .
So I believe it might be best to do some further testing at night and day using correct shutter if you have movement in your footage, otherwise if there is no movement then you can use whatever shutter you need or choose.
Thanks for checking the footage. I saw many examples on yt that has strobe in movement, and some luck of it.
I don't think it's a problem with my unit because it's a wide spread issue.
I'm going to try and record with h.264 to see if the problem is the hevc compression.

Reviews for "Add a Touch of Magic to Your Christmas with Hallmark's Stockings"
1. Sarah - 2/5 - I was really disappointed with "Magic Stocking". The movie lacked substance and the storyline was quite predictable. The characters felt flat and I struggled to connect with any of them. The whole magic element seemed forced and unrealistic, making it difficult to get invested in the story. The acting was mediocre at best and the dialogue felt forced. Overall, I wouldn't recommend "Magic Stocking" if you're looking for a captivating and well-executed holiday film.
2. Jason - 1/5 - I found "Magic Stocking" to be extremely cheesy and overdone. The whole magical stocking concept felt cliché and unoriginal. The acting was cringe-worthy and the dialogue was poorly written. The plot was incredibly predictable, leaving no room for any surprises or excitement. The movie also lacked a strong emotional core, making it difficult to feel any connection with the characters or their struggles. I was highly disappointed with "Magic Stocking" and would not recommend it to anyone looking for a quality holiday film.
3. Emily - 2.5/5 - While "Magic Stocking" had its moments, overall, I found it to be quite forgettable. The storyline was filled with clichés and lacked any real depth. The acting was decent, but the characters were poorly developed, leaving me feeling uninvested in their journey. The pacing was also off, with some scenes dragging on unnecessarily while others felt rushed. The magic elements added little to the plot and felt forced. Overall, "Magic Stocking" was a mediocre holiday film that failed to leave a lasting impression.
4. Mike - 2/5 - "Magic Stocking" was a typical, formulaic Christmas movie that offered nothing new or exciting. The plot was predictable from start to finish, leaving no surprises or twists. The acting was average, with no standout performances. The dialogue felt forced and unrealistic, making it difficult to connect with the characters. The whole magical stocking concept was poorly executed and felt like a last-minute addition to an otherwise uninteresting story.
