I am having problems with the Mavic 4 photos looking very over-saturated and producing very unnatural colours. This is even more pronounced in overcast light, when the photos have an oversaturated and over sharpened appearance. Especially bad on the greens, the final output looks very muddy.

For background I have been shooting with Mavic drones for around 5 years and have never had any issues like this. I am shooting RAW files, AEB (3 or 5), and combining in lightroom. This has always worked fine e.g. on my Mavic 2/3. I can't see any specific settings in the photo menu that can change the output.

NB the video colouring is completely fine, perhaps a little oversaturated but generally good (D-Log).

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced any similar issues or would know of a fix?

Is there a particular reason to do this?
How is the colour for just a single photo without following this process?
 
Small observation, I think LR defaults are now set to automate basic settings such as clarity and vibrance, maybe saturation, during HDR and Pano merge, just uncheck Auto or do a Reset all settings (bottom RHS)
