    I was wrong, my Mavic Air sucks.

    DJI Service is really fast if you follow their instructions. I literally had 10 hour turn around from the time they received my drone, the new one the next morning. They are stepping up their game. I put DJI Select, DJI Care in giant letters all over outside of box. New drone was sent overnight...

    BTW I'll update this thread. Despite not showing great examples of the images problems DJI Overnighted next day air by 10:30am a brand new Mavic Air, which was VASTLY improved. No issues with image sensor. It was definitely a defective mavic air. New one is fantastic. Took it too Cancun and shot...

    Did you do the Mavic Air update? I see Cinelike and “DJI” as my profile. It’s very strange. Do you also fly Mavic Pro with same device. I’m gonna do a hard reset of the Mavic Air.

    Anyone with an air do you only see 2 color profiles? Cinelike, and DJI?

    Thanks for the tips. It was to the internal 8GB storage. Strangely in the first video you see a bad video corruption from the internal storage. I did use an SD card later. All brand new San disk extreme 100mb card. But most of that footage was on the internal 8GB. At this point I’m gonna reset...

    Believe me, I immediately thought "oh i must have left some lens film protector on or something" Nada. I'm gonna get it exchange from DJI. All the other Air footage I've looked at on the net looks really great.

    We're inland a bit. The humidity right now is about 40%. I didn't have the same issues with my Mavic Pro flown just a few minutes apart.

    Do you have the mavic Pro? I mean all my videos are much worse than my pro. That’s why I think I might just have a defective unit.

    Here's some 2.7k footage, go into the middle and it almost looks like there is water or something fogging the lens.

    Here's it set to Sunny. It looks like some 1970s no-color footage.

    Here's the bloom in the middle. Be sure to get towards the end of the video:

    Also be sure and check it out at 24seconds for a strange video "glitch" recorded to the internal storage.

    I was initially very sweet on my Mavic Air. I don't know if it's the firmware update, or if I have a defective Mavic Air. All the footage is super dark, or blown out. It will take another 2 hours to upload the clips to dropbox but it's extremely disappointing. I did 4 flights now and it seems to...

    Mavic Air Raw Photos - Reading DNG Files on Mac

    Do you have the Adobe Creative Suite? Maybe they added some new DNG metadata extension that's non-standard. I'm not having issues, if you post one of your DNG files, I'll see if it opens on my mac with Adobe Creative suite and the one without it.
