Hello,
I bought the Mavic Pro a week ago. Now I have made some pictures and films, but since a day or two my pictures are too light. Can someone help me please what the problem is and what I can do about it/

The easiest way to overcome that problem is by switching the camera to automatic mode. You can find that setting in DJI GO here. If you watch that video from the beginning, you'll find a lot of other useful information about the camera settings.
 
Automatic settings are good for familiarizing yourself with the settings, but you need everything in manual to get truly cinematic shots. (including white balance). The first thing I recommend is a set of ND filters for the Mavic. They're relatively cheap on amazon, and they make a HUGE difference with your footage.

First thing when you take off is a controlled hover near by. While your letting the bird stretch out a little bit, open your picture settings and fix your ISO. (High numbers for low light filming, low numbers for bright daylight) So for the picture above it should be set to 100 (lowest)
Then you can use the spin wheel to change the exposure. Assuming your filming at 30 FPS you're going for an exposure of 60 - 120, that's going to give you the best motion blur. If you find you need a very high exposure number, it's time to put a darker ND filter on the lens.

The ND filters are the key, and if you hang around here for a little while you'll see people say that often.
