Hi,

I want to film video at night while flying.
The camera will be attached to the airplane's wing.
The idea is to film the scenery (which would mostly be illuminated areas) at an altitude of up to 2500 ft.
Can anyone here help with recommended settings?
I know that this camera has a small sensor which is not really suited for this.
In daytime the videos in full  auto 4K come out really great.

Thanks

24 fps and 50 shutterspeed, you want to keep theese low to get more lights. I think you can even use slower shutterspeed than 50, but will/can be little blur (but probably not easy to see from high up).

Auto ISO up to 800 maybe, more than that and you get a lot of noise. But it's better to get noise than no footage at all.

There is no list of settings from DJI about night shots that  you can offer?
