1. 5/5Making my first video

   I recently bought a new mini pro 4 drone and took it on a few flights. To my amazement the drone is incredibly easy to use. So after I flew it I saw this program as it was part of the drone package. Well I couldn’t believe the things I could do to make my videos and pictures from my flights into these awesome movie/videos!! It is awesome how you can personalize them and add your own flair. Not to mention they give you so many templates to use to make your video/pictures better!! I did my first video and it turned out ok, but as I use the program more and more I’m sure I can produce some amazing stuff. Thank you DJI for creating such and amazing product!!!!!! I’m so glad I went with you guys instead of some other drone company.

4. 5/5So Easy To Use!

   For someone who has enough film experience to know just how difficult it is to create quality work I was skeptical about the positive reviews of this product. However having used it just once I was stunned by the results. I used a template to get started then built my film from there. Lightcut worked beautifully. Considering this is included with my purchase of the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 this is real value for money. I’m still just learning but Lightcut reduces the learning curve considerably. Well done! Update: I continue to use and learn more and more about the platform, and sure it lacks in certain areas - it takes a lot of time to figure out how to achieve your goals and there is no easy way to learn it, you just have to do it. But with every video I make I get better and better at using Lightcut. And let’s keep in mind that this is editing your videos IN YOUR HAND! I prefer to do it while lying down in bed (although that can mean some very late nights!).

5. 2/5It’s cool but…

   I find it rather concerning that it will not let me continue any project unless I give it complete access to all of the videos and photos in my pictures. Other editors doing require this. They don’t even keep the files in the app they’re linked to the video that they have gotten permission to to remove. And the info of the edit is kept in the apps memory. I’d assume it works similarly however the app wants full access likely because the terms of service says they don’t upload pics unless they get your consent and id wager that consent is all they need. Nothing is free and the fact the app is free means a certain user data is harvested and sold to data brokers. It’s unfortunate that the app won’t allow me to access my projects unless I give it all my photos and videos and it’s a good app but it’s not worth the violation personal privacy.
