Does DJI have a problem with RAW photos? I say this because the Mavic Mini does not take photos in RAW (but here I understand, due to the equipment's commercial position), but now in the MA2? Why do I have to take JPEG + RAW photos? If I want RAW photos, I will convert them to JPEG later ... and I don't need to take up space on the card with photos that I won't use.

In JPEG + RAW it doesn't take two photos - it takes just the one and you can convert the JPEG to RAW in post.

I'm talking without being 100% sure, but I have 2 photos taken at the same time and in the same GPS coordinate and time.

Ps: Sorry in Portugese.

On my Mac I have just the one photo and can switch between JPEG and RAW - with a Sandisk Extreme Pro 128gb micro SD and 8gb of internal storage I can take literally capture thousands of stills in both without formatting.

Convert the jpg to raw ???  I don't think so.
You probably meant to say that the camera takes just one image and outputs it as two image files.

That’s a better way of putting it mate

Every Digital Camera Senor ever, when it takes an image, makes a RAW file. Everything the senor picks up gets dumped into the  RAW file, (which is massive). The information in this file is propriety to the manufacturer, so a Sony Raw file is completely different from a Canon RAW file.  Manufacturers, however, have agreed to certain standards to make pictures universal. They convert their RAW's to JPG's in the camera .  JPG's are global and easily displayed but in the process discards a huge amount of information.
However, if you have a program like Lightroom, you can take propriety RAW files and play with colour/hues/contrast/saturation to make your own JPGs, instead of what the camera thinks is best.
Hope that helps

Just delete the files you don't need.

You're welcome.

Hi alex_alb, thanks for reaching out! We currently only have a JPEG and/or JPEG+RAW format option for taking photos, but I will forward this feedback to our developers. After the evaluation of the engineers, significant suggestions or requests will be implemented via the firmware update, app update, etc. For any updates, please stay tuned to the latest news in our DJI official website at www.dji.com or by checking the Release Notes specific for your product. Thank you for your support.

Hey alex_alb, iI have one question and it might be a little off topic, but you said you will convert them back in jpeg. May I know how you convert files like that. I have a jpg file that needs to in jpeg. I found a lot of converters online but I am interested are you using some kind of premium converter or I am fine with free online converter. This is the one I intended to use, it is from Converter365 website: https://www.converter365.com/image-converter/jpg/jpg-to-jpeg. Thanks in advance.
