I noticed when I took night shots, regular still, with the mini 2 they come out little noisy and reddish.
Still looked good.
The I did a 180 panorama shot and the picture quality is much better. It seems the camera is taking longer exposure or more likely does some kind of image stacking.
Does anyone k ow how to use the same camera setting for individual stills?

Thanks

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out.  To reduce noise, set the ISO value to about 100-200. The ISO value should not exceed 400; otherwise, the image quality will be greatly reduced. If the image is too dark, the right amount of exposure can be achieved by enlarging the aperture, reducing shutter speed, or brightening the photo after it’s been taken. If the noise is still obvious when the ISO value is reduced, please try to reset the camera parameters and try again. Should you have other inquiries, please don't hesitate to reach us. Have a nice day.

Thanks for the advice, I will try that.
However I checked the camera settings in the metadata and in. Oth cases the iso is 32000. For the better paano shot the exposure says 1sec and for the other one it is 0.5sec.
