Does the DJI Fly App have a record of what camera mode was used for photos?

Took my first panoramic photos on my new DJI Mini 2 :) I could have sworn I set it to manual mode with fixed shutter speeds. But after stitching the photo in Fly App 1.6.6 and downloading the photos to my phone and computer I found the 3 different panoramic modes have different shutter speeds?
  • For 180 degree = 1/80 speed
  • For widescreen = 1/50 or 1/60 speed
  • For sphere = 1/80 or 1/100 speed
So maybe I didn't set manual mode?

Does the DJI Fly App have any additional log/record of what mode was used for taking a photo?

There's a lot of information in the metadata for each image captured.
Post one of the original full-size jpg files and I'll show you what's there.

so looks like I might have adjusted the shutter manually - don't recall doing it LOL
 
A little testing should help to work out what is or isn't happening.

Yeah I was a bit of hurry to get in some flight time before winds picked up. Will have to do some more testing.
