Better a pro Standard with less flights, than a Platinum

A few weeks ago I bought a second-hand Platinum, with approximately 250 flights (4 batteries with a bit more than 60 recharge each).
There is no problem in videos, but some perplexity with photos, especially on the left side, appears not so well defined.

So I changed it with an older Mavic 1 pro standard, with only incredibly few recharge on batteries (3 batteries less than 20 each),
even cosmetically it looks like new (for what it's mean).

I made some check, with and without ND 8 filter:

It appears good, but I have to set better the horizon.
The day became really dark during the flight because the sun went back to a cloud... so maybe the filter was too much.

I hope this time is the right one.
 
There is a very small tilt in the horizon, but it's not too bad. I generally have my gimbal tilted down -18 degrees, so only a tiny sliver of horizon shows, where any tilt in the horizon would be less noticeable. Nice springtime scenery there by the way, with beautiful colors.
