I had the opportunity to fly my FPV Drone in the National holiday Fireworks parade in Budapest on August 20th 2024. August 20th in Hungary is known as St. Stephen's Day. It is a national holiday celebrating the founding of the Hungarian state and honoring King Stephen I, Hungary's first king and the founder of the Hungarian Christian state. I flew a 7,5 inch Chimera drone with an Ace Pro Camera by Insta360, I found that the best in low light comparing other brands. I was not sponsored, so rent one for the occasion. I shot in 120FPS 4K 240 Shutter speed and ISO 3200. I was aware of the flickering, but I appreciated the extra speed than the dull city. The video is in 30 FPS because I like this fluid motion better than 24 or 25. I tried hard to sync the explosions with the beats in the music, so marked every pop in about 30min footage. I converted the 8bit footage to HDR by masking the highlights and treating it with extra details. The video does not include paid promotion, but I mention and show the camera and the brand I used. I paid for the rental and appreciate the product.
