I have had the Mini 3 Pro for 3 days. I've spent all my spare time trying to take one image or video that was not out of focus in the lower right corner. I've been unsuccessful. My camera is simply manufactured and shipped out of DJI's door, with a bad focus problem in one corner. It appears that the sensor is not perfectly flat, or is not perfectly parallel to the lens. It affects about 20% of the total image area. It isn't a little blurry either, it is very blurry (much worse than the original post). And it will be returned because of this. Nobody ought to have to suffer a camera wherein every image and video are noticeably out of focus in much of the total area. This is a big quality control issue, and if you get one like mine, you will return it too- nobody would accept this! It is a shame too, because this little aircraft flies like a dream... but that alone is not enough, it has to be able to focus the entire image. [view_image], [view_image]
Update: I returned the defective unit, and got a different Mini 3 Pro, which works perfectly, and the camera is in focus from corner to corner, really nice! I'm very impressed by what this camera and this drone can do. The low light capabilities are amazing, ability to rotate the camera vertical, 48MP still images, 10bit 4k video, and 360° panos that capture the entire sphere, from nadir to zenith. These are great capabilities and this drone (the second one I received) now lives up to and exceeds expectations. The only thing I will complain about is the still very exaggerated flight times. The longest flight I have achieved thus far (with the + battery) was 32 minutes, 15% remaining, so 35 or 36 minutes if I had flown it down to zero. It claims 47 minutes, which is just so... not possible. Still, overlooking that, I'm very happy with the mini 3 pro now. |
