Pre-Roll: Backblaze

Ireland was awesome. More in the Latitude Podcast.

Topic 1: Jim – Sony RX100 v Review

Topic 2: Jeff – Canon W-E1 WiFi Adapter Review

Only works in 7DM2, 5DS, 5DS R
Should have been built in!
Have to do a firmware update to make it work
Ads a new option to setup menu on the camera
Takes SD card slot
Establishes a small WiFi network from the camera or join the camera to same wireless network as phone
Can’t use the camera while the card is active
No storage
Speed was fine
Thought that I had to write RAW+JPEG my first time using it, filled up the 128GB CF card at basketball game. Allows you to download photo when shooting only RAW just fine

Midroll: Backblaze

Topic 4: 9 Reasons NOW is the time to buy a drone

Still image quality is “there” for the first time on a drone under $3k
- Took as many portfolio shots as my still camera in Ireland
You can capture unique compositions that are otherwise impossible
- Take locations that we’ve seen a million times and actually do something new there
Some locations more amenable to motion than stills, and this really gives a still image the cinematic look
Smaller and more portable
- Great excuse for why they can’t green tag you
Vlogger’s delight
Safer/Lower crash risk
Easier to get pro looking footage now that they are so smooth
FAA rules
Affordability
- Get one!
  - Go buy a DJI Phantom 3 Standard if that’s what you can afford. GET ON THE DRONES WAVE!
  - Buy a Mavic if you have a little more budget
  - Buy a DJI Phantom 4 Pro Plus if you have more budget and don’t have portability issues.
