    Mavic pro platinum vs mavic 2 pro video quality. Apparently the 1 inch sensor isn't fully used. ??

    No, DJI said they won't be able to fix this with a software / firmware update. Likewise with the fish eye. Where in Dlog & Hlog have a curvature on eg. The horizon and even noticeable with windows and houses etc. But some people have made lutes to fix this issue.

    That's true Paul. Either through overheating which is most likely. Or to keep the phantom series superior to the mavic series. But keeping 4k at 30 f/p/s is most likely to keep the phantom series superior as their 1 inch sensor is using 60 f/p/s at 4k. The phantom 1 inch sensor isn't overheating...

    I've had both mavic 2's. The mavic 2 pro and now the mavic 2 zoom. I much prefer the zoom. The 2 pro may have better low light footage. But that's about it. The rest is better with the 2 zoom

    Highest iso without loss of quality?

    I have a mavic 2 zoom. There isn't a way of changing the aperture. True?

    Highest iso without loss of quality?

    I do want the very best quality video. But in low light, sometimes you need to sacrifice some video quality. Am I best to change the shutter speed or ISO? Cheers

    I have. 200 iso is sweet. Maybe 400. Best to change the iso instead of the shutter speed? I know the 180 deg rule. I fly at 4k 30fps

    What's the highest iso without loosing video quality on the mavic 2 zoom? Eg. In low light? Your thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks

    My mavic pro platinum is getting further range than my new mavic 2 pro

    I put transmission in manual mode yesterday. Firstly manual mode in 10 ghz. Then in 20 ghz. I am in the inner suburbs and found the 10 ghz channel was best. I'm now going to try auto mode then 10 ghz and then 20 ghz.

    So airplane mode gets you better transmission and further range? Does the GPS still work? What version is the dji Go 4 app? Cheers

    Mavic pro platinum vs mavic 2 pro video quality. Apparently the 1 inch sensor isn't fully used. ??

    I have both the mavic pro platinum and the mavic 2 pro. In some of the latest YouTube videos, its been said that the 1 inch sensor isn't fully used. The likely reason why the initial Launch in July New York was canceled was due to the over heating from the 1 inch sensor. The engineers have most...

    My mavic pro platinum is getting further range than my new mavic 2 pro

    Yes, in in built areas where bluetooth, wifi etc are using 2.4ghz, 5.8 will generally get you a longer distance. My mavic air in auto mode only got 400m. In manual mode 5.8 in in built areas got 1200m. I've sent my mavic 2 pro back because my mavic pro platinum got a further range 8 out of 10...

    My mavic pro platinum is getting further range than my new mavic 2 pro

    Yes, I'm on FCC. I've just kept both the mavic pro platinum and the mavic 2 pro in auto. Not manual. Should I go to manual mode and choose the best Ghz?
