Let me start a list, others can add. I love this drone - but there are some glaringly obvious options they need to add. (Photographer here so video guys, I am sorry).

1. RAW only option. I honestly do not ever shoot in jpg, so can we stop cluttering my HDD with them, also, it might reduce lag slightly when imaging. Easy to implement in the menu like in any other camera.
2. This is a biggy. Can you do what most software companies do, and stop resetting every setting every time you release a firmware update. You release FW constantly (nice) but it means I have been caught shooting in JPG on the next outing until I realised! Come on man, talk about grinding my gears...
3. Video guys seem to get all the fun sometimes, but where are the RAW histograms. No, what we see isn't a raw histogram, it is based off a JPG, which mean's it does not truly show when data is clipping. For a small sensor camera, this would be really helpful for ETTR alongside bracketing.
4. File names! As far as I aware we cannot put our own file name prefix. Any other camera allows you to customize the first three digits. Ie rather than 'DJI' we can change it to anything. It means when we reach 9999 we can stop file name conflicts. Also, the system just now seems to mean that every time you format the card it starts at 1 again, rather than continuing. This is eternally stupid. Please fix this.


5. The FW fixes so far have been solid but keep at it. Fix the four above at least. Please hurry and add tripod mode. Cine is still too fast. (Thank you Mr Bloom).

Lastly, my drone was away getting fixed 3 weeks ago as has lens fogging. It came back fixed (of that issue at least) but then it returned to me with a new issue - a really loud buzzing on startup, that does not go with calibration. So it is away again! Missing the drone but hoping they will fix it this time. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7kUEWBtp-dM

Lastly, release the big battery to the UK and European market already! Yes it puts it over the weight class, but we just use it with different rules. Come on DJI, be cool...

I second that, especially the naming convention. Imagine you have multiple DJI devices and all are named DJI_. It always causes issues when copying from multiple devices used to record on the same event to the same target folder.

Cruise Control, Tripod Mode, Waypoints, Not resetting file numbers back to zero after formatting card.
An option for Virtual Home Point being displayed on the screen like the Avata.

Of course but still can be problematic. Best to have the option to change prefix.

i can agree with that.  you should be able to name them dj1_ or dj2_ or dj3_ etc.

Also stop them resetting to 0 every time you format. Option should be there to "continue file number sequence". This is an option on most cameras, and also most can change the prefix to anything you wish.
