Hey gents,

I went out for a quick fly this morning and noticed i couldn't get my mavic to focus. Clip is below. At around 20 secs I hit the auto focus, the mavic focused for a second then went back out of focus. This continued the entire flight. Auto focus sets it up nicely but then it reverts to blurry unfocused. Any ideas?

On the plus side when it was focused it looked good.
Bright shiny water won't be the best to lock on to, ideally it want a contrasty edge so it would be good to see how it performs with a different scene.
With hindsight you could have engaged manual focus after locking onto something on the shore.

This is a god example of how the firmware update that has it auto focus periodically is potentially bad news.
 
You might try to reset the gimbal then calibrate the gimbal again and if that does not work try to reinstall latest firmware. At last you can try to downgrade two times and the upgrade tot the latest firmware again. Keep us informed.
