Looking for some help with the camera functions on the Phantom2 Vision Plus V3 (PV2+).  Crashed my bird pretty hard a week ago (failed to calibrate the compass) and all seemed ok in terms of flight, and camera still working well taking stills and video, however, I have since discovered some anomalies.  In the vision app, under camera settings-video reoultion, the selector wheel shows: 10801 60, 1080P..., 1080P..., (with 1080's I am given the option to chose wide or standard screen), 720P 60, 720P 30 and 480P 30 (these do have an option for wide or standard).   Video is wide screen but stills are now in standard format.

Has this been experienced by anyone and is there a fix.

Thanks

That's correct, 1080p gives you the option of wide or narrow, 720p does not.
The stills are either Small 16:9 wide 10.8MP , Medium 3:2 12.8MP or Large 4:3 14.4MP as set in the app.

Thanks for the reply, sounds like no fix is needed. I have had this for just 3 weeks now and going through the learning curve. Was not sure whether I am just now aware of the aforementioned or if it was post crash results.  Any Idea why when using "Windows Photo Viewer" the images are now closer to square than rectangular as they were before my crash (have always chosen the large setting)?

The older photos still show up as wide ?
I think the default setting for the app is Small (wide), and I think it reverts to this after each app update.
When you look at the photos in windows the resolution should show 4384x2466 (small) or 4384x3288 (large)

That makes sense.  I have seen you post in on a number of issues, you provide good insight.

Thanks a lot, Nice Car!
