Compare to any smartphone ! Why does DJI CAM need you to click the screen every second to get correct focus?

We rather spend time of focusing on the steering part.

This must be fixed asap. So tried of having blurry photos and movies due to this.

All you need to do is turn on AFC which is continuous auto focusing.

Today it needed to click the screen each time a photo is being captured. Problem with this and automated flight is it's hard to get the timing correct since it's going to capture 100s of photos. None of them can be blurry.

What update are you after?  Continuous Auto Focus fixes this. None of your shots will be blurred...

An extract from the Q&A at the DJI site.
Camera
1.How do you enable auto focus on the Mavic Pro camera?

Focus is essential to capturing sharp images. To enable auto focus:
1. Tap the screen in the DJI GO app camera interface.
2. Long tap the screen to enable auto focus when using ActiveTrack, TapFly and Gesture modes. (This function needs to be enabled in General Settings)
3. Focus at the centre by pressing a customizable button. C1 is set by default and can be used during normal flight or while using Intelligent Flight Modes.
2.When shooting in manual focus mode, my shots are blurred even when moving the slider all the way to infinite focus. Why?

The focus range of the Mavic is 0.5m to infinite. Slide along the bar until you reach a focus point. Sliding straight to infinite focus does not guarantee sharp focus.
3.Can I zoom during shooting?

The Mavic Pro supports a 2x digital zoom, but does not support optical zoom. You can zoom in or out by dragging on the screen or by pressing the customizable buttons.

Oh , didnt know it was an option to do this. So for example if mapping at 80m height it will then autofocus now on the ground ? Have had earlier problems getting unfocused images and havnt used the drone in 7-8 months cause of Waypoint limit amount , focus problems and DNG support for mapping mode.

Page 46 point 11 in the Manual gives some detail.
