Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

My goal is to purchase the DJI OSMO Pro hand held steady-cam rig, an Olympus 25mm micro 4/3 lens (compatible with the OSMO's Zenmuse X5 camera), and attendant accessories (rig mounted LED light and Rode microphone, focus hand-wheel, batteries, case, power adapter and necessary cables). I already own DJI's Inspire 1 drone and the Zenmuse X5 camera (which mounts to both the drone and the OSMO), the addition of the OSMO will allow me to have a fully integrated, fluid 4K imaging system in the air and on the ground. The measurable outcome will be expanded creative capabilities on future video and photography projects. For several months after purchasing the OSMO I plan to put it through its paces, testing and refining its many functions until I have mastered it. My final report will include examples and explanations of its varied abilities.

Measurable Outcome(s)

My goal was to purchase the DJI OSMO Pro, an Olympus 25mm micro 4/3 lens and attendant accessories, which I did. The outcome is that I now have a state of the art steady-cam in my video production arsenal.
