Sunset Photo

[NotMyDrone]

I love how the Mavic (or any quadcopter really) offers us a different perspective when it comes to shots like these.

I'm going to have to try and find time to learn to tweak the settings faster so that I can keep a more consistent setting with video. But this was a still photo shot.

Thanks for viewing.

Did you edit that image? If so what did you use?

Image was shot in RAW and I imported it into Lightroom and did some editing (mostly just recovering the shadows and through in a light graduated filter for the skies to reduce the exposure a hair, reducing highlights and added some clarity).

How do you shoot in RAW? I thought the Mavic was unable too.

You can go into the settings and have the Mavic shoot *.DNG. I have it shooting both jpg and dng at the same time. If/when the in-camera jpg looks good, then I just toss the dng. Otherwise, I just open the dng file in Lightroom and process it.

Did you shoot on manual for this? Or just raw with auto settings?

I kept the settings on auto but it was captured in raw so I could adjust later in lightroom.
