Does Mavic Air support RAW in Panorama Mode?

Can it save DNG files when shooting panorama or just JPG?

Thanks

Each separate picture can be saved as a PNG yes, but the finished stitched panorama is just a JPG - not a PNG.

the dji panos save in raw and jpeg even if u choose only raw for some reason, i have never used the app to stitch them, i stitch myself with lightroom using the dng files only, i prefer litchi for panos as it can save the panos in brackets as well, so u could have 3 images for every one for the pano to make a hdr pano, it takes a lot more time but the out put is worth it.

Yes. Thankfully, because I never got a single pano that the built in algorithm stitched properly. Lightroom takes the DNGs in and stitches them perfectly well.

Actually took a nice 360 today, RAWs processed in LR, then stitched into a massive 175MP sphere - VERY neat.

Licthi works with the mavic air?

i believe it does but doesnt support the waypoint missions as of yet but may happen in a update, litchis is king for paanos in my mind anyways

I didn't think it did as there is no SDK yet even for basic Air control

Once you have stitched in lightroom, do you then convert to jpeg or something?

if its a image i really like and want to share, my work flow is like this,,,,,,,,,,,i will bracket the pano in litchi, so if its a 2 row 5 images per row i will have 10 imagesx3 brackets=30 images, so i process each set of 3 in a hdr image then stitch the 10 hdr images to a pano, the single hdr images stay as a dng but are about 50mb each, the result is a very detailed huge 12000x5000px image, i then send that as a tiff file over to luminar then i edit it and then export as a jpeg of high quality for my use and a jpeg compressed for facbook etc, i only do that to images i really like the rest get half that treatment haha but all go to jpeg at some point

Does litchi work on the mavic air? Love the idea of a bracketed pano!

 

[genesimmons]

ive read that it does but not all the features like waypoint missions etc, the bracketed panos are enough reason to buy litchi, and u can do so much more pano wise, add rows and add the degree u want to shoot, 90 0r 180 or 360 or anywhere inbetween, the only issue i have is the panos are very slow and they dont go in a sepperate folder like dji panos, other than those 2 gripes its awsome

 

[djiboi]

I'd be interested to see where you read it did as I'm holding off buying litchi as the SDK for the air hasn't been released, meaning no 3rd party apps for now.

 

[genesimmons]

oh and u can do panos in portait mode which i like to do, gives a different perpective to the image, most times i will use one row 180 decgree in portrait mode 5 images, if i really want some forground then 2 rows 10 images in landscape mode

 

[genesimmons]

hmm im pretty sure i read it here that it worked but not all features ill try and find the thread that i read

 

[genesimmons]

ahhh after re reading the threads i was mistaken, i assumed that it worked but waypoint missions did not but as it turnes out it does not work at all yet. i hope it does soon though, i am on the fence for a mavic air and i luv the panos in litchi
