Well maybe I'm imagining it.... after you see the picture quality you can't help but think the vids are like that too.

Yeah, I think the video is good. Here are my settings in case you're interested (I just copied them from someone on youtube)..Well maybe I'm imagining it.... after you see the picture quality you can't help but think the vids are like that too.

Hi guys,
I've just ended with long tests of my watercolor issue on Mavic. Also spoken to DJI support.
I've prepared indoor test scene with continous studio lighting, so I can achieve ISO100 and shutter between 100 and 200.
Multiple combinations of settings done, also upon recommendation of the support.
Conclusions:
for watercolor effect responsible is the Custom setting of the picture - as stated previously by AyeYo:
set to -2/-1/-1 reproduces watercolor in video/JPEG
set to -1/-1/-1 doesn't reproduce visible watercolor video/JPG
of course RAW stills are perfect.
It seems to be compression issue related to sharpness setting, not depending of light conditions
Question: is this issue recoverable by any repair/exchange by DJI or not worth to bother?
IMHO pro device (even for prosumer market) shouldn't have such issues at all.
Yeah, I think the video is good. Here are my settings in case you're interested (I just copied them from someone on youtube)..
4K 24fps
White Balance: Cloudy (I adjust according to conditions)
Style:-1,-3,-3
Color: D-Cinelike
I wondered if it was sharpness setting that was the issue - I have noticed it when background out of focus, as in the pic below which is a still grabbed off a video where focus was on rocks in foreground. My photos are fine, and I've had video since this day which is mostly fine also. Will test.

Mine affects the video only, stills are fine. I just did a test changing sharpness settings but couldn't recreate the problem, therefore sharpness -1 was fine, and sharpness 0 introduced crunchy and moire. Will keep trying. Because the photos are fine I'm assuming it's a software issue rather than a sensor problem, and has been otherwise suggested probably some kind of noise reduction/interpolation. Hopefully it will be fixed in a future firmware update. DJI suggested a firmware downgrade but I'm too lazy so will keep trying to recreate it in the meantime in the hopes of narrowing it down. My test this morning was static so will have a go whilst flying as well.
Here's pics of the issue, one is a photo and one is a still from the video, pretty obvious which is which! Taken in the same flight. Ignore the whacky colours, I didn't bother to match them. The issue is more on the foreground in this instance, must have focussed on the hills.View attachment 5239 View attachment 5237
Wish I had a photo like yours! How can I have it on both? Did you just hover and take a photo and then filmed it?

You can take photos while in video mode. Just press the camera button on the right side (back) of your RC. Doesn't affect the video at all. Just adds a photo.

Wtf is going on?!?! Yes it's clear as day! I wish I had photos like that! My video and photos are the top picture! What am I doing wrong? Is it a faulty MP?

Can you post a photo? What settings are you using?
OK that pretty much confirms it's a compression/software issue then - glad you've got your stills sorted.
