.700 for me is the best i use

The zoom in and zoom out do not work using the 5D-button. I am not sure yet whether this is a firmware v01.03.0800 issue.

I updated on Thursday morning as soon as I saw it was released - with no problem with the result.

The only slight hitch to the process was that after the update downloaded to my iPad Mini 4 via Go 4 - Go 4 just sat there without doing anything except saying that the download was 100%.  I just had to shut everything down and restart and then it loaded and installed in less than 20 minutes.  Friday I updated my other 4 batteries and everything has been fine.  Some settings were reset but that's come to be the norm on these updates.

So far no problems with 800.
After updating the NFZ information, the Mavic flew normally, with no range restrictions, in Aircraft mode. But the app compass was obviously out as it didn't know where I was.

0700 and don't plan to upgrade to 0800. Pretty happy with how it works right now - apart from the NFZ delay when booting up inside the house.

Yes me to I think I have a problem with initialization, start with NFZ and in about 10 seconds go into Ready To Fly mode and it works perfectly but i dont think that is a problem as you say maybe a NFZ delay

The v01.03.0800 does not allow 3D party apps like the superb Autopilot app function (until they found the bottle neck) , why I will not upgrade to 0800 !

Can not update to 01.03.0800 bedcause the latest DJI Go App won't run on my mobile device. I stick with latest stable version 4.0.5 and Mavic firmware 01.03.0700 - because if I update the Mavic only, I will run into several restrictions.

General rule with DJI..
first 3 updates then stay. DJI are not transparent with every update.
Every firmware update after the third/fourth introduces restrictions or inserts trojans for future restrictions.

P2Vision Plus - height restrictions, bricked wifi range extender.
P3 series - transmitter power lowered in GL300A
Mavic/P4s/P3's - NFZ and login required (especially in China).

Zoom button is working for me on .800. I didn't update GO4, still on 4.0.8

No option for .0200? I updated to .0300 and experienced a loss in range, immediately downgraded back to .0200 and has been perfect since. I have always had sharp crisp focus, I have never seen this "watercolor effect" I keep hearing about. And I can actually get the advertised range and speed. I am very happy with my DJI product. If it's not broke, why fix it?
I would seriously have to see in the firmaware download page from DJI a statement that reads...
"Increases battery flight time by 15 minutes before I would ever even consider an update.

It's been 2 days since I bought my first drone, Mavic. Having seen all the firmware upgrade related issues and fly limitations, I've decided to stay at .0400 it came with, for now. Still haven't found a compelling reason to upgrade after 0.0400.

0400. When I received my Mavic in last february, I had troubles to upgrade to 0.0400. As Everything is nice for me with it, I didn't manage to try to upgrade again and again.
If one day there is something new, really interresting for me, I'll see

Finally updated mine to the latest a couple of days ago.  Went out and flew it and also looked at the local NFZ.  The red circle is exactly where it was and the same size/shape, but there is a new yellow line very slightly (couple hundred feet maybe-guessing) outside of that red zone.  The yellow is not a shaded area, just a circle around the red with no color filler between the two.  No other changes noticed and flight was error free and entirely predictable.  This thing is so much smoother than my P3A was.  Much more enjoyable.  I think it is the difference in the ergonomics of the controller.  It just fits my hand better.

Edit: As an aside, I did not have to relog to DJI.  I have not had to log in for quite some time.  I've also flown and updated the cloud since then.

I'm referring to the limitations imposed by NFZ in recent firmware. I understand 0400 doesn't have NFZ; puts me on ownership and decide when and where to fly instead of big brother controlling. Nothing wrong with that but found some recent post where user restricted from take off due to a school 2 miles away - that's too strict enforcement.
Also, found some post discussions on height & distance restrictions if you're not logged into account  - one off check I believe.
And the risk that once you move up from 0400 to the latest there is no easy way to downgrade to your preferred version.
