After many years, we are closing the doors at droneblog.com With that being said, I will be selling quite a few of the drones that we purchased for reviews and for our YouTube channel, as they are no longer needed: DJI Mini 3 Pro DJI RC (5.5-inch, 700 nits) 3 Standard-sized batteries...

THIS. Lol. I actually thought about this for some time after the shoot, as I NEVER shoot in 48mb mode. But, for this particular job, trying to get the photos to look almost as good as the ones out of the Air2S and Evo Lite+ I did. Never again. It could be a combination of the SD Card and 48mb...

I'm kind of thinking back to old-school tech days (been in IT and some form of tech since 95, still am) where you delete a file from a disk and there are "fragments" left over. Perhaps with this particular card and its usage, there were fragments or something left over that was causing issues...

I totally agree with you on this. I would regularly delete files from all of our SD cards, as needed, then monthly or so reformat them. I began thinking there could have been an issue due to partial file deletions or something of that nature. Now, even for all of our plethora of Sony cameras, in...

I believe I have found the issue in this case. After reformatting my SD Card in the Mini 3 Pro, I have not since had this issue. Last week I did another lake shoot, using our Air 2S, Autel Evo Lite+, and the Mini 3 Pro (as the shoot was 4 or 5 hours long). Upon examining the Mini 3 Pro...

In our line of work, we currently use the Air2S, Autel Evo Lite+, and sometimes the Mini 3 Pro, as a backup. The Air 2S is our favorite drone for client work. The 1" sensor makes a difference and it is newer than the Mavic 2 Pro. Truthfully, we are looking to upgrade to the Mavic 3 line (not...

Thank you for thinking deeper about this. I'm not running proxies or optimized media, but haven't cleared the cache either. It's just odd only a few Mini 3 files were "off" whereas most of them were just fine. More importantly, for this project, the fact that I was seeing less than acceptable...

Thank you for taking the time to view the files. I didn't use Luts in this case and generally use Cinema Grade with Resolve. I guess my vision must be crazy as I see a huge difference in resolution between the 2 files taken 2 minutes apart, not counting the awful slo-mo, lol. The client was...

*facepalm* I think my weekend is about to be ruined, hahahah!

You just might be right. I had to step away for a bit, lol. It has been nice, though, working on the Air2S footage of the same project. Those images and videos look spot-on to me, lol!

I ended up reformatting my SD Card that was in the Mini and took a few vids and various-sized images (12mb, 48mb, SloMo) and everything appeared to be back to normal, including the acceptable resolution and normal-sized JPGs and DNGs. I'll continue monitoring this, testing it regularly, and...

@Meta4 Here are my screens: Video 1, ok 2minutes later, blurry SloMo - Super Blurry Test I, pre-edit, zoomed, blurry

Meta4 - Thank you for really digging through this. Looking at your shots here things look decent. On my end, most of it looks pretty bad. I've viewed on a 32gb RAM windows machine and my Mac M1 and they appear, to me, to be on the very low-quality end. I'll attach a screen or two as well. It...
