I have my photos set to JPG + RAW but when I shoot a 48 MP photo, it only saves the JPG. Is there a way to get a 48 MP RAW file as well?

Look again to see what files are on the SD card.
You are looking for .dng files
If you get dng files at 12MP resolution but not at 48MP, then it's not available in 48PM.I can assure you, it's set to JPG + RAW because when I take photos using the "normal" method, I get JPG and DNG files. I'll try again tomorrow to see if I have missed something.

As the 48MP stills are just an interpolation of the 12MP original, the 12MP dng is the only raw
Basically you are not getting 48mp of usable resolution, only 12mp of usable resolution. But it's better than nothing
It’s not possible mathematically, however DJI’s software is what is giving you the detail. I’m sure they are adding sharpening filters and other algorithms. Basically what I mean is if it was printed or cropped to 400% the only difference will be w.e software can provide because the RAW data doesn’t exist. Data wise there is only 12mp there. Either way the images look great.

When you are in 48mp mode you are not increasing the size of the sensor you are catching the same amount of photons. If it was true 48mp with 48mp worth of raw data then why would you shoot in 12 ever and therefore 12mp mode wouldn’t even exist it’s illogical. Idk man agree to disagree at this point.
It’s not anymore resolution, the demosaicing algorithm just has more presise information about each visible color location in relation to the sensor thus can process the image and apply certain sharpening information/filter at greater detail. Like I said the detail is not coming from actual recorded photons it is coming from software and software cannot create light.
Lol if it was true 48mp the 12mp would be irrelevant and the picture evidence you posted wouldn’t look practically identical
Perhaps "able" should be "unable"."LOL", A.K.A "I am completely able to defend my argument so I'll just pretend that yours is obviously wrong".
Since I already explained why 12 MP is not irrelevant and you apparently either didn't read it or didn't understand it, I'm not going to waste any more time responding to you unless you can find something intelligent to post on the subject.

I guess he took his marbles and went home.
Thanks for taking the time to explain this so others can understand it. It gets really tiring seeing all of these posts saying "it's not really 48 megapixels".
Cheers!
