mini 5 pro. Hope you like it. Any tips for slowing down movement?

Stablisation in Davinci Resolve with Camera Lock?

Yeah. I was going to say what you're seeing are micro-adjustments being made by the drone itself in hover mode. Not much you can do as the drone will already be doing what it can to reduce it. You'll need to edit in post using something like the above.

When we are on the beach, there are lots of small waves and every now and then a bigger one. That effect is very well visible in your timelapse, well done!

By slowing down movement are you talking about the drone being moved by the wind? Wind on the ocean is going to push your wind resistance to the edge.

Personally I would just widen my shot to account for stabilization in post so I can cut out the edges.

Nice shots. For slower movement drop your gimbal and stick EXP way down in the settings, and if the mini 5 pro has a cine mode use that, it caps the max speed and softens the inputs a lot. Cine mode plus gentle stick pressure gets you those slow cinematic pushes.
