Hello everyone,
I recently bought my dji mavic pro and went for a spin at the countryside.
After I got home I saw the footage and I was in awe. I shoot at 1920x1080 @ 50FPS and as a test at 96 fps
The results were daunting my camera settings were AWB and 0 0 0

Shooting at 25 FPS at indoors (againt AWB and -2 -1 -1 ) at home made it a whole better
But at 50 fps and 96 fps still it was bad.
2.7k resolution at 25 fps was so anso
Most of my clients require 50 or even 60 fps
What can I do? Was it a faulty camera? also the Gimbal sometimes tilts to the right but after I quickly make it look down and up again it seems ok.
Thank you for your time.

The camera records at a lower quality at frame rates above 30FPS, look through the forum, there are many threads about this. Apparently the higher frame rates are really meant for use with DJI's upcoming Goggles product. If you want high quality video with the Mavic, you should stick with 2.7/4K with their respective frame rate ranges.

Also, watch those negative sharpness settings -- in lower light they'll work against you, making compression and noise reduction artifacts more noticeable.

Ex Machina thank you very much for your very fast responses and your tips. I very much appreciate it. My main problem is that when I ordered it I was advertised 1080p@50fps not 1080p@50fps (only for fpv)
You think it is possible to fix it over a patch?

Apparently it is a hardware limitation. ;(

I wote "Apparently the higher frame rates are really meant for use with DJI's upcoming Goggles product" but to be fair that's forum conjecture/rumor, DJI hasn't afaik made an official statement about the intended use of those frame rates for anything other than general usage.

It is the AF. You have to keep an eye on it.
