I already made a comparison between HQ and Full FOV mode and the result is shocking in my eyes since my 2 year old
Phantom 4 Pro with the same/very similar sensor performs so much better.
HQ mode is taken from a 4K crop of the 5.7K sensor and read pixel by pixel. Due to debayering the quality is „less“ than real 4K but that‘s usual here.
The FullFOV mode takes the full sensor area (ok, only 16:9 instead of 3:2), but in contrast to the manual on page 38 it is not read from real 5.7K and is downsampled later, it is read pixel binned or interleaved! In the end we only get a resolution of about 2.7K :-(!
That is not what I have been offered and have bought, especially not where my 2 year old
Phantom 4 Pro was able to read the complete sensor and made a very high quality downsampling from the „oversampled“ data where negative debayering effects were made „smaller“ due to the downscale!
DJI should really sort this out, FullFOV quality is really bad and could be much better as shown in the
P4P two years ago!
Feel free to contact DJI support to sort out this issue.
Please be aware that I accidentally used the wrong scale for taking the shots in regards of ISO. One single chart „should“ be 5,625% of the picturewidth or usual 2,81% for 4K, I only took 2,5% so it‘s not comparable to other measurements.
But, in my test all tests were done at 2,5% so they are compareable among each other.
Since 2,5% is shown in the charts nothing is „wrong“ here.
