Night traffic photos

[go fast]

As the poster said, not in tripod mode. Seen plenty of 8 sec shots with tripod mode. really clear and stable .... unless it's REALLY windy.

The last shot wasn't clear it was blurry...

gimbal lock on
manual setting: iso100, 3 sec
focus: fly up to 50m, adjust iso to 1600, aim camera straight down to a lit area and use auto focus, switch to manual focus and don’t touch the focus for the rest of your flight (it’s not easy to manual focus at night unless you’re using an ipad or similar in size), adjust iso to 100 and shutter speed to 1-3sec depending on your lighting condition.

My mind is blown everyone I see those photos.

Great job.

My pictures were not taken in Tripod mode nor were was gimbal lock on, mostly with 8 second exposure time...

correct I believe it had more to do with focus and wind than with the 8 second exposure...here is another one shot with an 8 second exposure in which the focus is much better and there was minimal wind. I have to say I'm really surprised how well the mavic does with 8 second exposures, I cant get results this steady with my I1pro or P3P.

Yes, took me abit of fiddlling with settings, focus etc, and abit of luck. The night I took my pics I actually took about 20 shots where some were crappy, naturally you selectbthe best to showcase

Here's my small contribution, still learning - that's what make the Mavic great!
