    Just got a Mavic 3 Pro, upgraded from Mini 3 Pro. Battery charger recommendation? Any other accessories?

    You need a good 65W PD charger, maybe one for the car (12V DC powered) and one for home (AC powered). There are a few that will charge multiple batteries as once and are convertible to 12V (lighter socket) or AC but I find them too big to travel with As for a single charger, I bought this one...

    Mavic air 2s not in forcus

    Sorry, but the image you posted is actually a normal image from the Air2s, especially a stitched jpeg pano. Pixel peeping on a "big" monitor will reveal the limitations. You can try editing/tweaking but the adjustments are limited using a jpeg file. ANY ND filter is going to affect the quality...

    DJI Fly 1.6.9 released

    Your assumption about the function of the EV setting "changing" when in manual is mostly correct. When in manual mode the M.M. is now just functioning as a meter of the actual exposure to help the user use the available settings to get the correct exposure. It is not compared to anything in auto...

    Red and green bars in photos

    Unless you have some sort of "defect" or film on the lens or a bad filter, I am sorry to say that is a bad camera sensor. You will probably have to get it warrantied/repaired.

    DJI Smart Controller - DJI Fly keeps stopping

    IF you are indeed ( and not a mistype) flying with the DJI GO4app, no wonder it is crashing, it is not used for the Air2S!! You would need the DJI FLY app which you would need to download from the DJI download site.

    Largest Android Device to Fit the Stock Controller Clamp?

    Just to address the second part of your question. GPS is only needed in the tablet/phone for updating the map (which you would need internet/cell for anyway) and updating the current position of the controller. The "regular" controller itself does not have GPS so the app relies on the device for...

    Panning the gimble left and right?

    As noted above, you CAN move it left and right. You have to press and hold on the screen ( I have found that it works best pressing on the lower 1/3 of the screen to help prevent the autofocus or exposure from activating)) and the white circle will appear under your finger. That can be moved to...

    Air 2s is blurry on take off and how do you turn off ....

    As mentioned, that "blurry then clear" is the autofocus (AF) doing its job as you get farther away from the ground/take-off point and the distance from the lens changes. It will also do that when it stops moving (going from moving to a hover for instance) if there is a great difference between...

    fuzzy video

    Is the video captured on the SD fuzzy or it just what you see through the camera view

    Good Advice Wanted

    As above, review any of the pertinent videos, etc on the DJI site, YouTube, etc. Explore the "basics" of video and still image capture (not necessarily just drone but any photography) and that will give you an idea of what each "setting/option" will do to your images. Get familiar with the...

    Could Someone explain the auto focus slider for me?

    If you look closely at the "slider" that comes up, it has the usual infinity/(mountain) and close/(flower/macro) icons, and if you slide that between those it invokes the manual focus (MF), and if slid all the way it will revert back to AF... It will "automatically focus" when stopping when it...

    Hyperlapse waypoints does not show a “save” menu icon!

    Welcome, There also appears to be another bug with this version... HLG Filming mode is not working! I haven't checked it but it what I have seen it seems to be on both IOS and Android... Yeah, DJI needs to spend a little more time testing the apps instead of relying on the users for testing!

    Hyperlapse waypoints does not show a “save” menu icon!

    It appears to be a bug in the latest version (1.5.0) of the Fly app. I have seen it mentioned if using the IOS/Apple version but haven't seen it mentioned running the Android version. I haven't updated to that version of the app yet so I can't verify.

    Software ???'s for Air 2S

    The Mini 4 is right on the edge for performance with the Fly app and the Air2S. Most have had messages that the CPU is maxed out and I am sure that the app is not as fluid as it is designed to be using the Mini 4. Being "striped-down" with just flight apps and all resources at max efficiency...
