Recently I have been photographing sunsets with my Mavic 3 Pro and my Mini 3 Pro. I can easily create sunbursts with the wide-angle lens on my Mavic 3 Pro because I can stop down the aperture. See the pano below. I use my Mavic 3 Pro when I can but often I can't fly it during sunsets at the location I want because lots of other people are there using their cell phones to take sunset shots. I can fly the Mini 3 Pro because it is not as restricted but the fixed aperture does not work well for creating sunbursts.
Aside from using post processing software tricks, is there a way to do it in camera on the Mini 3 Pro? I have been Googling a bit and have found that there are some star filters but most of them are only make 4 rays, some make 8. What is the best way to capture a sunburst on a fixed aperture lens? If anyone has experience doing this on a fixed aperture lens, I'd be interested to know your technique - are you using filters or some other method.
Thanks,
Chris
