How to fix/replace Mavic camera issue

[AlecB]

My drone has been showing signs of a slight burned sensor. Is there some way to help it or fix it on my own? If there isn’t what is a good place to fix it cheep? The issue is a ring looking object on the horizon in the photo I have down below. Thanks

Is that pattern visible in video and stills?

Yes. It only seems to appear in the sky. Not when I’m looking down at land

You might only need a new camera barrel. Thats the cheapest part to troubleshoot, but not such an easy install.

How much is that? Also, do I need to send it to someone or can I do it myself? And what if that’s not what is wrong? Returns?

I sell them or you can buy it online. You can do it if you have microelectronics experience and the tools. If not, I would not recommend you try it yourself or you can very easily break something more expensive.

Hi. interested in a camera barrel ! still have them or anyone else ? would you assume i need to replace barrel ? I can manually focus. but cannot get image sharp. autofocus goes in and out but can not get a sharp image. i have gotten sharp images (for a few years now) but no more......
