The mini is my first drone. I've had it about a month, but haven't had much of a chance to use it due to work, weather, and now stay-at-home orders. But this morning I took the drone out to a nearby park and put together a little video! Hope you like it, I'm still trying to get a lighter touch with the controls so movement isn't so jerky.

Nice to see.
I personally would lower the EV compensation a bit.
That (usually) gives a more pleasing look if you ask me.
Yes, you're right about lowering EV a bit. I need to rely more on my histogram because the live feed always looks too dark on my phone, and I get scared that the shadows are going to turn to mush. But I'm quickly discovering that overblown highlights are unforgiving and no amount of post production is going to bring back those details. Thanks for your feedback!

Nice video! I'm also trying to get a hang of working with EV comp, trying to reconcile what I see on my phone screen with what makes it to the video as well. Very cool park and nice steady shots.
