Taken with the x5s, won’t bother trying to sell them as photos such as these aren’t worth the time it would take me to upload them. Think I haven’t seen the quality of photo that explore camera gives on a 15” screen, scrap.The images I shared online have limited resolution. They are meant to look good only on the smaller screen, for license protection purpose.
Some of these images have passed through the review process by Getty Images editor, and made available for commercial licensing. The fact I could sell them means they are much more useful than "exploration purpose only".

The thing that gets me with people nowadays. First off, no one forced anyone to buy the Mavic 3 with all its faults. is it a perfect drone? no it aint. If you not satisfied with the product then your free to sell it. if you decide you want to keep it then dont complain. This is not just limited to drones. We buy many things in life that companies promise the world to us and they never deliver. so whats new, get over it people. We all have choices to make in life, this is no different.
And way pointsDJI hasn't announced anything yet. But here is a bucket list of things I wish they would fix/add for the next update:
- fix slow satellite acquisition;
- add RAW support for telephoto camera;
- add manual exposure control for telephoto camera;
- add a new lens profile in DNG files captured by the ultra-wide lens.
- add "tripod mode".
I agree, I wouldn’t complain if they add raw to the telephoto camera in the next update.Here are some images I shot with that "crappy sensor". Please take a look, and decide yourself, are these images only good for "exploration" purpose?

I don't judge the quality of the sensor by price, or by some company propaganda. A sensor is a just a means to an end. To me, it is "good enough" to unleash my creative potential. If DJI add RAW support in the next update, that would make it even better.
This forum, in current times, seems to have morphed from information sharing to Drone bashing, and in some cases, member bashing (God forbid someone disagrees with your thought).The thing that gets me with people nowadays.

And add support for Wide Angle Lens hyperlapse please. It works while stationary so why not while in the air..DJI hasn't announced anything yet. But here is a bucket list of things I wish they would fix/add for the next update:

The recent release of the M3 may have increased some of those, but on the whole, I think the positive posts outpace the negative behavior here by at least a 10-1 margin. You should see some of the forums I visit...then hastily depart.This forum, in current times, seems to have morphed from information sharing to Drone bashing, and in some cases, member bashing (God forbid someone disagrees with your thought).
@JoelP I agree with you 100%! I really enjoy flying the M3 and the cameras do everything that I need (and then some) for my business. I flew the Air2S since release day, and the Air2 before that- and loved them both. Despite having to wait a few minutes for satellite lock (and expecting further tweaks to the flying mechanics) I feel like the M3 was a step up for me in every regard... every time I fly it.I, for one, am delighted with my Mavic 3, but do expect another tweak to the firmware. Based upon my experience as an engineering manager who worked extensively with Chinese suppliers, I don’t expect that anyone at DJI in China was compelled to work through Chinese New Year. I will patiently wait, glad that it works as well as it does as I wait.
I would like the quicker satellite lock and a fix for the severe “hula hooping” instability that I experienced with active track. When it comes to waypoints I will wait for the SDK to be released so that Litchi can make that available.
I agree. Maybe I’m biased against the younger millennial-aged people (30yo’s) who seem to lack adequate social skills, most likely due to being raised solely on unsocial media sites. Now just stand back and let’s see what happens!This forum, in current times, seems to have morphed from information sharing to Drone bashing, and in some cases, member bashing (God forbid someone disagrees with your thought).
Totally agreed, even some of the older heads surprise me at times.This forum, in current times, seems to have morphed from information sharing to Drone bashing, and in some cases, member bashing (God forbid someone disagrees with your thought).
It's just sour grapes by those that can't afford to own the Mavic 3 and its admittedly pricey RC-Pro Controller. They enjoy taking potshots at it to make themselves feel better about flying an inferior drone!This forum, in current times, seems to have morphed from information sharing to Drone bashing, and in some cases, member bashing (God forbid someone disagrees with your thought).
I wasn't aware that was the purpose of the telephoto. But I agree with you there is no point having RAW for it as the quality is not that good.Just odd that you would want Raw from a crappy $20 sensor is all. DJI made it clear that sensor is not meant for anything usable other then exploring the surrounding area for neat spots to fly to. I pretty much ignore the fact it’s even there.

I know a lot of people seem to be banging on about the last update fixing everything. But I disagree. There’s always improvements and additional inovative features that can be added. This is a pretty expensive drone, and it should be given more features, and a wow factor. It should have stuff that I can’t even think of or imagine yet. That’s what DJI R & D experts are for.Heya guys, I was wondering if there are an official word when we will see the third firmware update for the M3? Hoping its pretty soon, thanks in advance.
I’ve just done some telecom tower inspections with my M3. I managed to capture a small label that was easy(ish) to read. The M3 flies a lot better than my M2P.The thing that gets me with people nowadays. First off, no one forced anyone to buy the Mavic 3 with all its faults. is it a perfect drone? no it aint.

Ya DJI never meant for it to be used in any type of serious photography, we’re lucky it will even record or take any pictures. The idea is you takeoff go up then use the explore camera to scope out your surroundings, it’s handy for flying in unfamiliar places. I never bother to use it to take pictures or video.I wasn't aware that was the purpose of the telephoto. But I agree with you there is no point having RAW for it as the quality is not that good.
