I've been getting this allot lately. My setup is phantom a phantom 2 with gopro 4 black shooting on 4k without contrast & sharpen etc... My question to you guy's cause I can't find this anywhere on the internets (please post if you know something related to this): What is this? Why is this? How do you prevent it? How to remove it in postproduction? See video for example shot on the 3rd of juli 2015: It's quite annoying cause from the ground I can't see it on the screen either!
This is sun flicker from the propellers. There are at least two ways to help fix it. The easiest is probably a Lens Hood or Lens Pedal. http://www.shapeways.com/product/2KMX572KW/petal-lens-hood-for-phantom-2-vision Also, an ND filter for the lens may help. You should try the lens hood first. You can probably even make your own with some plastic and tape.
Thanks for the reply! Any idea how to remove it in post? Edit: Now I know what it is I found a solution: Thanks!
