Mini Mini 3 Pro Night City Footage

New drone release and had to pick it up, real sucker for new drones…

Thought I’d share the results of my first night shoot with the Mini 3 Pro for anyone interested. Really pleased with the results. It’s not my Mavic 3 but would be very hard to get such shots in the town whilst staying within the rules thus why I always like to have a mini to hand.

Wow, that did a great job in low light.

I would be interested in your camera settings, especially ISO. My night flight did not come out as nice as yours.

Yes, looked great. You could even see the lighted windows on each car of an incoming train. Settings please and did you do anything in post? Also, where was this shot?

Thanks for the comments. This was my first shoot with the drone so really didn’t get much chance to play around with settings but went with 800 ISO, the 4k 30fps HQ mode and D-Cinilike colour profile. Then did a little post adjustment in Final Cut Pro.

Think it’s important to go with manual setting otherwise it’s likely to ramp up ISO and get too much noise.

As for location is my local town centre in Reading, England.

But yes I was indeed very impressed with the results for such a drone. There is a little more noise than you would like for more professional grade footage if viewed on a big screen but at the end of the day this is more a consumer drone and seems to be great for what it is.
