Mavic Air 2 | Photo Modes - Quick Overview- Drone Photography

In this video I share with you a quick overview of the different photo modes offered on the Mavic Air 2 as well as samples of when you might utilize them. 48 megapixels, panoramic, smart photo are all really impressive on this new drone from DJI.
Check out the newly released DJI Mavic Air 2! This drone is incredible and is capable of capturing amazing quality video and photos.
This is the best drone I have used at an incredible price. I am really impressed and excited to get more cinematic style footage with this drone from DJI.

    Cool vid; thanks.... I believe the Air 2 uses a Quad Bayer sensor, much like most top-end cellphones, so it's not stitching 4 pictures, but utilising "effective" pixels to generate the higher resolution. That said, the quality is definitely not 4 times as good as the 12Mp pictures...... So yes, I rarely use it too... Cheers, Ian

Filming with 400ISO u get unusable footage and with active track modes only 30fps HDR. I already made couple of test videos, go and check.

    The 48 megapixels is achieved with the use of a quad bayer filter. It essentially divides each pixel into 4, thus achieving a 48 megapixel photo from a 12 megapixel sensor. The issue with that is, each of those smaller pixels are getting less light. That’s why it performs better in brighter light when using the 48 megapixel mode. But, the 48 megapixels does tend to produce sharper images.

But as soon as i switch back to 16:9 photoes the drone works really well has really good range .

    Good question! The single photo was properly exposed for the ground .. if I would have exposed for the sky it would have been really dark on the ground. The smart photo combined exposures so sky and ground were exposed.. with the sun in the shot being so bright it probably made the rest of image a bit darker than other situations.

Can you please do a more in-depth tutorial regarding the speed boat about how to get the boat sharp but showing motion blur in the waves? I see that a lot with cars driving with the car sharply focused, but trees & bushes behind with motion blur. I'd love to see & hear your techniques behind that.
