New Firmware

don't you feel it's a bit weird about this FW "update" ?
On the previous one, the vertical cropped mode was already there.
The "Allow change cameras while recording" is a dark Joke, when you switch, it stops, change, starts, the recording, so...well... mmeeeh yeah OK, you scripted 3 actions but I don't call this a possibility to swap lenses.
Really cool for the RC2 Dynamic Point upgrade ( I bought the RC Pro 2 for this function , but it's a good thing the RC2 has this )

DHP on the RC2 is a game changer for active track when my RC Pro 2 is too big to cart around; need to try it soon.
About changing lens during recording video was always a pain; from what @Zours is saying, it appears not much has actually changed other than just automate the change procedure, there is no instant change over of lens during a recording.

I updated from 01.00.0200 to 01.00.0030 this morning and found no issues or problems during a 30-minute flight. Mavic 4 Pro and RC 2 controller.
The revision notes for 01.00.0030 say that DHP was added for the RC 2 controller, but it was already there in 01.00.0200. I made several flights during the last few days using it, prior to the upgrade.
I appreciate that automated change of cameras (not lenses) while recording video. It's quicker and simpler than manually stopping one camera, switching to another camera, and starting that camera. I do miss the explore function on the Mavic 3 Pro.
So far, the Mavic 4 Pro roll-out seems to be very smooth and without drama.

We love drama! Gives us something to moan and complain about.
Anyone having problem with the Gimbal stabilization after the update.
Haven't tried it flying yet, but holding the drone and moving around the gimbal jumps slightly(noticeable in video) while making a click sound. Can even feel the jump while holding it.
It's not a mechanical problem/somethign stuck in the gimbal. When sitting on the table all axis and rotation work normally and smooth.

I noticed that myself. But only when carrying the drone in my hand around while on, no gimbal issues when flying though. whatever this is, it was not doing it with previous firmware. Anyone else noticed this?
Glad to hear it's not happening when flying. I have to try it tomorrow.
Strange that the image stabilization behaves different now between on the ground and in the air.
It's only happening when moving the drone around.
If it's just moved in place along the pitch jaw roll axis it's not happening.

Mavic 4 Pro already has the same Explore Mode as the Mavic 3 Pro, which is now a hybrid digital zoom from 1x to 24x across all three cameras while shooting continuous video.
The aircraft that never received the Explore Mode is the Air 3S, where it would be very useful to Explore from 1x to 9x across both cameras in video. Oh, well.

I noticed and applied a Mavic 4 Pro update today v01.00.0300.
The update — aircraft firmware v01.00.0300, along with new versions for both RC controllers and the DJI Fly app — introduces several features aimed squarely at pilots who value flexibility and cinematic control.
Among the biggest changes is the ability to switch between focal lengths during video recording, both in Normal and Slow Motion modes. This means creators can seamlessly shift perspectives mid-flight without stopping to adjust settings, a clear win for dynamic storytelling. The update also brings dynamic Home Point support when paired with the DJI RC 2 remote controller, which allows the drone to update its “return-to-home” location as the pilot moves — especially useful during long tracking shots or mobile filming setups.
Another major upgrade arrives for vertical shooters. The firmware adds lossless and cropped vertical video recording options in Portrait mode. That means TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts creators can now capture cleaner, platform-ready content without the compromises of reframing footage later. DJI has also thrown in the usual “fixed some known issues,” though details remain vague.
One note for pilots: after installing the update, camera settings reset to default, so you’ll want to revisit your exposure, color, and resolution preferences before taking off again.

Thanks for the detailed write-up! On another note, have you, by any chance, noticed those gimbal "jumps" and clicking when drone is on and you carry it around?
