    Night photos/footage minimums......

    It's extremely well lit. That's why I was so stunned at how the picture turned out. There has been some good information on this thread as to how to maximize night shots for this particular drone, but like I said earlier, I've also watched a ton of video reviews of this drone as it pertains to...

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    Sorry I'm so late getting back to you. I will try to get that data sometime today and get back on here, but I'm starting to understand what you're saying. Thanks for the feedback! Sean D

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    All I was trying to do was get a nice still shot of the football stadium when it was all lit up at night, but you can see above what it turned out looking like. Obviously nothing close to what you posted in post #14. I wasn't trying to do any video, just some still shots, so I don't have...

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    Yes, that's essentially what I'm asking. If I can't get decent night shots with the Mavic Mini, what level of drone do I need to get to in order to get shots that are the quality of what vindibona1 posted? I feel like if I had those capabilities, my shot of the football stadium would've ended up...

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    The above shots were 1-day apart, with the one on the left being the night shot I had issues with, obvioiusly. Man, you guys are talking WAAAAAAAY above my head with all these terms/numbers you're throwing down. I have a lot of homework to do to even begin to understand what I need to be...

    That's MUCH better than the shot I took of the football stadium when it was all lit up....... Sean D

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    I have watched a handful of videos where the operators maxed out the ISO and shutter speed and got very little improvement, but I will double-check that. You mention the Mavic 2 Pro; is that the next step to take where the sensors are better for night images, or is there something in between? I...

    Night photos/footage minimums......

    Went down to catch what I thought would be some great night images at the high school football stadium last weekend with my Mini, but was completely disappointed. After some research, it appears it's not an issue with the settings, but rather just how it is, What's the next MINIMUM jump that I...

    Hello from Northern Indiana!

    Hi Tommy, Yeah, it looks like I'm a little less than an hour down the road from you up here in Logansport. No longer than I've been on this forum, I really like it. Lots of great information and pretty sharp/experienced folks. Sean D

    Another 107 question, so bear with the rookie.....

    So I've combed through quite a few of the threads pertaining to getting the 107 certification, and while there is plenty of good information on the best way to get the license and what it entails, my main question is whether or not it's actually worth the hassle to get and ultimately keep. With...

    Hello from Northern Indiana!

    Thank you! Soooo much information on here and I've only been trolling around for about a half hour! Lol! My main reason for coming here was information/input on the 107 certification. Finding tons of great information on that already. But now that I'm here, I can see that I'm going to be coming...

    Hello from Northern Indiana!

    Just picked up a Mavic Mini! I've been wanting to get into this drone stuff for quite some time, and after some input from a friend of mine, he suggested that this would be the perfect drone for a green horn like me. I look forward to having a look at this site and all the discussions, as well...
