Howdy folks,
New to the Mavic line of drones... Owned Phantoms up to this point... One big challenge for me right now is the focus.. The Phantoms had fixed focus and all I had to worry about with them is flying them... This M2P that I just bought, I am trying to figure out the best focus practices... A few missions I have gone on, was super excited about the footage I got, only to come back home and realize it was all out of focus...
I have tried setting to auto, and mapping one of the C buttons to center focus, and hit that once I take off... I have also enabled focus highlighting on the screen..... I have read threads from 4+ years ago, that the trick was to use manual focus, and set the focus to the second line after infinity.... Then I saw some postings after that saying that a firmware update had made that recommendation invalid now... Though I did try that manual method, and it does seem that around that focus point, I do get the most red highlights on the screen, but I am not sure if its placebo effect or not, but when I get home and look, I can swear that some of the footage is out of focus..
What is the general consensus nowadays on the best focus settings?
TIA
