The Mavic Air 2 has a smooth zoom function by using the Fn + Gimbal Wheel combination when in Zoom mode. Is this function accessible on the Smart Controller when used with the MA2?
Ok I somehow managed to miss that second wheel. Maybe due to that muscle memory from the stock MA2 controller ?Yes, one wheel is for the gimbal, the other for zoom! This means that you can move the gimbal AND zoom at the same time!
Not my video but take a look at this. It convinced me that I needed a Smart Controller after watching it. Mine will be here Sunday and I can't wait!!
You will love it! I just got mine yesterday. But be patient upgrading the software. Like everyone says, it can be a ***** unless you get lucky. You have to use DJI Assistant 2, and make sure you have the latest version. But even then, it took me hours to finally get it done. My problem was that the controller would shut off in the middle of the upgrade. DJI needs to get the bugs out of this...Yes, one wheel is for the gimbal, the other for zoom!

I am very happy with the Smart Controller purchase. I can now get my MA2 up in the air in record time!.You will love it! I just got mine yesterday. But be patient upgrading the software.

I have the same problem. No zoom on my right wheelI just got my MA2 / smart controller combo. I’ve updated the firmware on the SC and MA2 but cannot get the wheels to move the gimbal. Any thoughts?
What video mode are you in? Zoom does not work for 4k video, only 2.7k and 1080.I have the same problem. No zoom on my right wheel
It only works for videoHello All, first post for me.
Try as I might I cannot figure out the zoom function for my MA2 with the SC.
The right Camera Settings Wheel, when set to video / 4K Zoom, adjusts the zoom just fine. But when it’s switched over to camera mode, it doesn’t. The funny thing is it was working on my first flight, but now it doesn’t. Did I develop a software glitch? Or am I missing something. The manual doesn’t say much about it.
I too have a Mavic Air 2 with Smart Controller but have not been able to use ZOOM function. This is the screen I see. Will not progress from here to show other choices.
I can move gimbal with my finger but that's it. Running update v01.01.0040. Talked to DJI support but all they can suggest is to reset controller and reload updates. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the suggestion but didn’t work.
