So...
Long story short...2nd Air 3 acquired had an issue with main camera lens...blurred details in right part of screen.
DJI received it, checked it and sent a new one as exchange, aknowledging that received one is not OK.

The new one was tested at arival...surprize...the right part of screen is blurred/slightly out of focus as the optics are not arranged OK.
So need to send it again at DJI, losing another 10 days from DJI Care and from time of work....

Wondering HOW the QC is made at this lenses....Is even made by someone? Because is easy to spot the issue...

TIPS: If you want to fast check the main lens, put a WIDE lens on it....As the image is stretching by wide lens, any defects will appear instantly, easy to be spotted. Then you can check the area with normal lens or with no lens.

This was the case with exchanged drone. Now I have no CAS, as DJI received the email with issue and "we have sent it to technical dept.to investigate"....I do not know WHAT they investigate, as the drone is here, probably they review the footage.
Still, the delay is not OK, as weekend is here and another 2 weeks will pass until next drone will arrive....

Not happy at all.

Good tip Geo and thanks for sharing.

No problem, glad to help others to check the quality, as DJI is not having a QC for lenses at manufacture.

Already made a NEW CAS for the drone exchanged.
Will be sent today with UPS.

I have also included in package the WIDE LENS, in order to be checked before sending the new drone back, as I have seen on FB and forums  A LOT of people with main lens with issues related to right part of image blurred.
Seems to be a issue with manufacturer, cannot be so many lenses that don't have the proper optics.

On the other side, the ones that received a good drone have pictures and video acceptable (not sharp in details as Mini 4 Pro, even if is SAME CAMERA, but not with such loss in details on right side).

Better see why so many with issues.

Cheers.

Hello Geo_Drone,
I have also that kind of issues (in my opinin even worse) with the main and tele camera of my Air 3.
I contacted DJI after one month of buying my new drone several times and send them the original files.
As an answer I just received a formally information that they couldn´t find any defect after a deeply check.
I´m really disappointed to hear this unequal treatment concering users with and without having a "DJI care refresh", although i have obviously decentered cameras

Best regards
