When shooting in manual mode (photo) turning the aperture dial changes the aperture but also the EV values.
This is strange i think. I was expected that only the aperture would change. And f.i. using the 5D button could change the EV values.
Aim i missing something? Is this a preset i can set?
Thx, Lieven

Your not missing anything that is the way manual works.

Oke thx... Still feels strange to me. Sometimes the aperture = 2.8, but the EV fi. = -1,3, and you can't set the EV to 0.... Strange, but we'll live with it.

Yeah I agree, it’s never been explained why, but same in all dji craft.

Hello there, Liecat. Actually, it's normal behavior. In Manual mode, EV will be adjusted once you adjust the ISO and Shutter speed.

Hi there
I got my M2P since a couple of weeks and I m also trying to figure out the EV compensation in manual mode. It seems to me it’s completely random and it doesn’t follow the arithmetics of exposure. Other mysterious thing is that the DJI GO 4 display all the time a EV compensation but the remote indicates always 0
I ll keep looking for more detailed documentation if anyone could chime in it would be really appreciated
Fly safe
