Your photos is definitely overexposed. Check out the "best camera settings" videos here for some advice on choosing good camera settings.

Have had the same issues. No matter what we did, the camera was not metering correctly in Auto. Setting to Aperture Priority Mode solved the issue.

It's overexposed by a couple of stops.
Can you post a screenshot from your phone/tablet to show your camera settings?

I believe the Mavic Pro has a fixed Aperture. It can not be adjusted. You can add ND filters, change the shutter rate, lower the ISO in the manual mode. Try to get an EV of 0 or as close to it as you can.

Look at these YouTube videos:

Yeah my apologies was trying to be helpful and didn't realize the question was about a Mavic Pro. My answer was in relation to Mavic 2 Pro.
