The DJI Neo is a great flying camera, but it has its flaws. But as a selfie camera platform, it is worth the money and a triumph of engineering.

What is the name of the music starting at 27:39 please. Very nice video! Thank you!
It’s not based On a jazz engine lol That’s total mythology
I have one… pictures are crap… worst pictures ever, I shoot with a D4 and I don’t have any issues… use it as a back up.
Are you sure it's the camera?
@ hahaha good point! However the pictures are in focus but noisy at all ISO’s and they have like a dull appearance, very hard to fix in Lightroom, I use it as back up. Did a wedding and could only use 3 pictures out of 300 I shot with it. So I use it a lot less.
I'm in doubt between a D800E and a Canon RP and it seems that the D800E satisfies.
Contrary to popular belief, the D700 has poor lowlight capabilities .... It's just about a stop worse than the D750. Understandably it was Nikon's infantile stage
I have been using this for 2 months on an Alaskan road trip. Everything from eagles to waterfalls, whales, bears, and tons of magnificent mountains..an easy camera to learn all about photography. I actually submerged it under 2 feet of water when my canoe flipped over...I dried it out as much as I could with tissues,. It would turn on but all the controls were defective. I then put it in a plastic bag with a kg of rice for 48 hours...that was a month ago and it's been going strong since!!! Only wish I would have...more precision and full digital zoom lengths. Up to 600 mm focal it's fine, but then there is a loss of quality with the digital zoom extensions
Braking through the turn with the front brake and intentionally not leaning into the turn. Very strange ways indeed.
Probably the bike I should have bought (FZ-07). Sadly it is no longer on the 2024 Honda website here in Canada.
Why is it flipped left to right?
I do, and a D810. Superb still photography cameras.
I still keep my D800 as a reserve after going mirrorless with a Z7 a couple a years ago
with this lesson, i will like bring out how to set your photoshop background
It was my favourite. I bought and sold the model 3 times. Unfortunately, it’s too heavy for an old guy like me 😅
Nice review. Enjoyed. Rode it and will upload my test ride video soon. The only thing that I wouldn't agree with you is about being a ADV style bike. The front is the 17 inch wheel and it is not really high from the ground, but that is all.
For the weight of the bike and the fact that the sort of long distance rider might carry a lot of gear, Honda should really give it dual front discs. Also the centre stand should be standard on this type of machine. Otherwise an excellent bike for what it was designed for. Your aftermarket exhaust looks bit like the pipes from a 2-stroke😀
D610+D700 user. I am super happy with my couple. Maybe D810 one day if I need more mpixels. I was wondering 1) did you use a drone for the footage in the town 2) what lens was it?
I wanted to buy one instead I bought a honda VFR VTEC instead.
Cracker of a review.....
I'd consider buying this bike if it had 20 more hp, ESA, a bit longer travel suspension, and adjustable ergonomics (footpegs, bars etc.)
I went for a film Pentax SLR with 6 lens to a Canon G9, what a mistake, just no control in low light. I had it for years and moaned about it every time I used it but didn’t want a DSLR with lenses owing to the type of holidays we do in remote areas. Massive market of bridge cameras and this LUMIX had it all as a travel camera in remote places. Rain and dust proof, decent zoom with a fixed 2.8f across the range, light, easy to use, compact, and VERY VERY cheap for what it offers. Probably for photo enlargement, A4 size is probably about it, but I have gone to 400mm square B&W! Excellent in low light, outstanding in good strong light. This has it all for the money. Look up Graham Houghton, he got a fantastic insight to using this camera and a very good book through Amazon.
Best camera I have ever had
Found an FZ 1000 for $250. Could not pass it up, and it runs like a champ. The pawn shop salesman said other potential buyers thought Lumix was a cheap brand, never having heard of it, or didn't know it was made by Panasonic. They were clueless. I did some homework, and two weeks later bought it. Love it. If I find the 330 for less than $400 I'll get that one too!
Been riding my ST1100 for 34 years now.
Im an ST1100 rider as well. Daily commuter, and was looking at the NC as a possible replacement.
@@sportsmancraft1 I had an st1100 and did 105 thousand miles on it before getting a Blackbird , now have an NC750 dct . Not a single problem :-)
I own one myself, for 22,000 km now. The only few things I miss are cruise control and a thermometer (riding all year round).
Great little video.. I'll be following your adventure 😊
I have 2021 and have ride many marks ,Yamaha,Harley different Triumphs, The NC750X DCT is superb for ordinary road and city use. But Honda have better models for terrain or longer road travel type Gold Wing which is to big and heavy in city. The low fuel consumption is outstanding. I do really recommend this bike!
What year NC is this?
I like it.
Wow, I learned a lot from this, thank you.
The only complain I have is that I have seen a few with lots of rust?
Not mine, 9 years old - used it throughout the year, including temperatures just above freezing. No rust whatsoever.
Vstrom 650 better in every way having owned both
Not better in storage
thanks for your review . pls provide link to rear fender manufacture
Yes, for me the rear fender manufacture as well, please
I bought a manual 2014 in Sept. of 2023 and have put about 5000 km on in my year of ownership. I love the nature of it's engine. The undersquare long stroke design generates a very pleasing sound and feel at low RPM. One of the issues I had was that the seat slopes forward and would push me into the frunk. I bought a simple riser on eBay from someone in the UK that lifts the front and resolves the issue. An added benefit is that the seat to peg distance is slightly more comfortable. The NC has been in production long enough and has been popular enough that it's well served by aftermarket accessory providers. I added a Givi custom rack that allows for saddlebags and a top case. It's impossible to love an NC. It's not red and Italian. It doesn't have the spectacular paint jobs of the high end Harleys. It doesn't have the high revving engine notes that let you fantasize about being a GP racer. It's suspension is lower end and a bit noodley. It is however possible to love the kind of riding that the NC excels at. It's super chill and practical. It encourages a slow deliberate riding style where you can just enjoy the day and cruise along. The center of mass is low and it doesn't feel like a heavy bike but it has enough mass that it's pretty good in gusty crosswinds. It's great around the city and it's good enough for highway rides of less that three hours. I wouldn't choose it for a ten hour highway slog. Doing things like valve checks are on the easy side compared to other machines due to the screw type valve adjusters and the forward cant of the cylinder block. I've dropped mine off the side stand a couple of times and it seems to be designed to avoid damage when things like that happen and it's easy to pick back up. I see used ones for sale that have racked up some pretty serious mileage and that lines up with my impression that they're easy to maintain and owners like riding them.
What is "Green laning"? is it off road riding?
UK term* for the recreational driving of suitable vehicles, be it a 4x4 or something with nobbly tyres and decent ground clearance or, in this case, an ‘adventure’ motorcycle, on unpaved routes, eg a dirt or gravel track. Critically, the route has to be classified for use by such vehicles and not be a footpath or bridleway, and also have public access. Such routes, particularly in England, are relatively few in number. *could be used elsewhere, not sure.
For goodness sake it is not based on a jazz engine, that was a joke at the press release. It was because Honda car engineers were consulted on the development and it uses some Honda parts bin parts (the con rods for instance) some of which were also used in the jazz engine as it shared the bore and stroke.
Right, even a jazz engine would be physically huge on a bike
It's sort of amazing that Honda broke the mold on street motorcycles with the CB 750 four cylinder but now they are giving their premium motorcycles twins. I don't care so long as they work and are smooth enough.
I have this one too, and it's awesome
No, it's not. Owned one, but sold it because of buffeting behind the screen. No more windshields for me. Plus I did not like the rear swingarms that look like they are made from construction material. And forward sloping seats are among the silliest design ideas, as they become uncomfortable pretty much when you get on the bike. Got myself a Guzzi V7 850 Special instead.
You have to love people who love their bikes but can only laugh at the arrogance of telling others that they know what everybody else needs ... let alone wants. Nice bike but not the best for my needs, thank you. 😅 Well said, thomas
Stunning pictures, Thanks Phil!
I’ve had mine for 10 years never let me down . Toured Eastern Europe including Russia ( before the war) performed faultlessly.
Well made bike. It is a Honda. Can check my content when you can. Cheers.
Thank you for posting this review. Much appreciated from a long-term owner based on experience. I'm seriously looking into the NC750X as a tourer and commuter. Could you please add links in the description to the add-ons (if they're not the Honda accessories)? Also for how long have you had it, how many miles have you put on since you purchased etc. would help with the context of this superb vlog.👌
I added the hand protectors. All others were Honda's.
Took a chance on a D700 with a 140K shutter count in fairly beat up condition. Stuck a new thumb grip on, cleaned it up a bit and good to go. Just love the experience of using this camera. So much so that I've bought another one with a very low shutter count in excellent condition. Plan to keep both, use the beater for general use and keep the less used one as a spare in case the beater ever fails. Another good thing about the D700 is the price and variety of good quality used lenses. I was looking for a f2.8 70-200 zoom for equine shots indoors, got an F mount Tamron for £300, cheapest equivalent one for my mirrorless Fuji would've been around £800. The D700 is a great camera, don't buy one, buy two! 😁
Nikon has really let everyone down in the mythical megapixel department. The D700 bests the other bodies because its sensor has the 'largest photo sites'. Purchase a Compact Flash to SD card adapter and you're in business with your favorite SD cards!
Thanks Phil! It's given me a boost of confidence that i made the right choice since i'm a complete newbie to dslr and photography and impulse bought this camera on facebook marketplace for CAD$100, came with another lens also, a minolta skylight!
That was the best explanation I've listened to yet.
D700 - one camera to rule them all.
Thanks for such a clear explanation of a much underappreciated camera system. Holds its own and a very affordable option to technological overkill.
Love my D700! Love the colors
I love mine...
Agree with you 100%m a great value 'serious' camera especially for a first DSLR. I've had my A300 for 15 years and it's been a great camera, great pics and never let me down. It's one of 5 cameras I own but I still use it regularly.
