Is my camera OK?

I think that my pics do not look alright. Is my camera OK or not?

Looks like a longer shutter speed that caught some movement making it look blurred.

Can you post your EXIF data? (Camera settings?

Iso 100, 1/470, f/2,2, EV -0,3

Look at the grass down left, has some kind of water color look. Took several similar pics and all are the same. Other pics does not look good either I think.

The one in the snow looks as good as it gets.

Lots of great videos on how to use the Mavic camera -

Yes, I know it needs post work but it does not solve the grass looking like watercolor. Should it really be like that?

I can see what you are saying and it's the blur because the focus is centered across the water. You should try lowering the focal center if you want the focus towards the bottom more. It's the camera and how it's designed. Try setting the focus 1/3 from the bottom instead of dead center or high, this will still give yo the blur at the bottom corners but the center bottom should look much better. I'm not a pro by any means but I am learning as well. There's a big difference between the phantom and Mavic cameras

Underexposed areas tend to have their details mushed by noise reduction, especially if using the flatter image profiles. The RAW files should have the detail.
It has nothing to do with focus.

I do not think it looks as out of focus and the distance is so far so I would think it should be infinity focus no matter where I focus?

The RAW file do look the same, link to it here: Dropbox - 170101-1342-FC220-0055.dng

Hopefully this is the issue with my pics too (sharpness set to -1). Will test this weekend.

Still seeing issues even at higher resolutions. Oil painting effect.

Recently started seeing this in my photos also (watercolor, oil painting effect). Downgraded (1.02.0900) to get "Art' back, reset camera settings and upgraded (1.03.0200). With settings at +1,0,0 things may be better, but haven't been able to really test (another cold snap rolling through).

Finally got to if sharpness +1 helped. This one is with sharpness +1 and other color profile. Unfortunately the oil painting effect is the same .

damaltor: have you tested your Mavic now?
