camera app

[jlabate]

At this early stage with my new drone, I am primarily interested in taking still photographs. I'm using a Mavic 2 Pro with the smart controller/Go 4 and would like to be able to see precisely what the camera will record when making a still photograph. I want to clearly see the four edges of the frame. One issue is the map in the lower left corner. I haven't been able to find a way to toggle that off/on and sometimes find things in that corner that I did not see and do not want in the image. Any ideas?

Also reading the smart controller pdf manual, I see this (screen shot below) showing a "camera" app but am unable to find it on the DJI app downloads. Is it third party or maybe discontinued? Maybe it would be of no use to me but I don't know.

Lastly, other than an introductory post, this is my first post. Is this the right forum for this question?

You swipe the screen vertically with one finger (or 2, depending on how you configured it in the app) to go in/out of full screen and hide all the clutter.

Camera app was likely the default android camera app that would have been for the controller's built-in camera if it had one, but it doesn't so there's no point in the app being there.

When I swipe up the corner map seems to stay. If I touch the upper right corner of the little map and convert it to the radar display it then disappears when I swipe up.

Thank you Kilrah for the quick reply to the answer I wanted to hear.

Thank you Camino.

Just now tried it, for me, the swipe up clears everything including the map. Thanks again to you both.

I tried it without a connection to the drone. That might be the difference. BTW, you can call me Ken.
