I tried to fly the mavic today for the first time in about 2 weeks and after turning it on I noticed that there's condensation inside the camera that looks similar to this:

Just a spot right in the middle of the camera. When I turn the drone off it goes away quickly, but every time I turn it on it quickly comes back, even indoors. Does anyone know what could be causing this issue? the camera is completely unusable at this point.
 
I ran into that on a trip to Hawaii. It had been raining and the humidity was way up there. After the drone dried out it was back to normal. You can try drying it out for a while and then turning it on inside to see if it comes back. If it persists my guess is that it needs repair/replacement.

I noticed that there's no condensation at all when I use a polar pro ND filter. However condensation will come back if I try to fly without a filter. Could it be that the camera isn't sealed properly or something like that?
