DJI have various LUTs scattered around their support site. Some are under software, but this search was useful, re-finding the D-Log M to Rec709 LUT I had found previously for the Air 2S. What models support D-Log mode? What models have the official LUT files? When I first got my Air 2S, it...

It was changed a while back in a Fly update. I guess they removed D-Log to avoid confusion, but it did I believe have greater editing scope. D-Log M looks better on screen while flying, probably the main reason for the switch.

I hand launch and to land, switch to sport mode and bring it down just beyond arms length to the right just above head height, then I move under it and pinch it in the centre, and kill with the left stick. That way it is in a solid hover, and no twitching from the drone sensors. I wouldn't do it...

For single shots, I always edit from Raws, but for 360 and wide angle panos, I find the DJI stitched JPGs remarkably good. I usually shoot -0.3EV to preserve the highlights, and just do light editing in LrC. On 360s, I occasionally have to retouch minor horizon glitches, but often perfect. The...

With my Air 2S, I switch to sport mode when low down to disable the sensors, and manoeuvre it so it is next to me to my right, just above shoulder height. I then just reach out and grab it from the side, no revving involved, and kill the props on the left stick. Obviously you need to be careful...

I'm fairly sure my ADS-B detection stopped working with the previous firmware (UK). It's working again with this latest release.

Useful thanks, I didn't know Flickr supported spherical panos. My Air 2S creates great 360s that only need light editing on the stitched JPG. I posted some on Facebook which are OK, but no zoom. A couple on my Flickr stream here. They are fairly fuzzy-looking, and no zoom Bruce Clarke on Flickr...

I'd say you've got a good one from those photos! The lenses on this thing will be fairly crude compared to DSLR lenses. The design will have a lot of reliance on software correction of distortion, vignetting, contrast and chromatic aberration to keep the camera the size it is. The corners and...

If you think yours looks unsharp, you should see mine! I'm not sure how you've cropped yours, but it looks acceptable to me. I've looked at a few Air 2S samples, and the corners can be a bit soft with the 22mm equivalent focal length. I think that's more of a factor than f2.8, as on a 1" sensor...

Thanks, very useful. The chromatic aberration section - the Mavic 3 shot shows moiré on the railings rather than chromatic aberration. Other tests have shown the same. Maybe when Adobe create a profile, they will be able to improve this. I was all set to get a Mavic 3, but as it's my first...

It will pick up the basic corrections, yes, but Adobe added profiles for the M2P and A2S specifically in the current CC version. I will be interested to see how one for the M3 will improve on the standard DNG changes.

That would be consistent with M4/3 cameras. Most lenses are sharpest around f4.0, and f5.6 a good all round setting in good light (f11 equivalent full-frame depth of field). f8 is getting toward diffraction-limited on M4/3. f11 will definitely be softer overall.

Same for me, but the M2P and A2S have specific profiles listed by Adobe for Camera Raw. I think Adobe add their tweaks, which could well improve moiré and many other factors in subtle ways.

Does anyone remember how much the Raw editing results improved on an earlier model like the M2P or A2S before and after Adobe adding support in Camera Raw? I'm used to proprietary Raws (Olympus ORF), where you can't edit new model Raws until they are supported unless you spoof an older model...

Like I've said in another thread, it's not worth bothering editing Raw yet. If you are using Photoshop or Lightroom, it's not on Adobe's list of supported cameras yet, but because it is DNG format, they will open the files and do a lousy job with them as there is no profile for the M3 yet...
