Just got my Air 3S and, as a photographer, my main interest is in the still photo quality.  Othere have mentioned that the in-camera sharpening seems to be very aggressive and I agree with that statement.  So far it appears the best results I have gotten involve turning sharpening totally OFF in Adobe Camera Raw and using very little noise reduction.  Noise reduction values that are too high turn leaves and details into something that looks like it was done in pastels (chalk...).

Color noise reduction has a bit more latitude and this type of noise tends to pop up in shadows.  I also use automatic chromatic abberation correction and defringing with a fairly wide range in the purple fringe control.  This might only apply to some images so look them over.  I shoot architecture so there are a lot of high contrast sharp lines that can lead to fringing.

One would assume that Raw files are not sharpened since they are, in theory, the data that comes right off the sensor - but DJI might have something else going on.  I am not sure.  

Wondering what others are discovering?  I am thinking about trying Topaz Photo AI to see how that might work.  I know that their face recovery is simply amazing but wonder how the rest of an image might turn out with some careful noise reduction with AI detail enhancement.

If I give this a try I will report the results.

Which camera are you talking about ? I think 70mm might be slightly sharper than main camera. But if you shoot ISO 100 in good light with correct SS you won’t see too much noise so adobe PS AI noise reduction should work but some prefer the new Topaz which is exceptional. It’s not that difficult to reduce photo sharpening with software a lot different with video which is best before recording. Adobe does not as of now have Air3s lens profile installed , that’s usually down to adobe so auto corrections may not be correct as it seems to use Air3 corrections.

Just for jollies... slapped on the wide angle adapter and while it is raining outside, took an interior photo of my house.  Wanted to see if the barrel distortion was correctable in Photoshop.  It appears it IS!  I have a few lenses in my bag that have 'mustache' distortion that is pretty much impossible to correct because it is barrel distortion in the middle but then a bit of pin cushioning at the edges.  

Using Camera Raw to do it is not sufficient and I do not like the way it handles this distortion when it is extreme.  Instead, I used the Photoshop Filter for lens correction.  Apply the barrel correction at 100%... then apply it again around 15-20%.

The photo actually straightens up fairly well.  And keep in mind, I have photographed nothing but architecture for more than 40 years.   The wide angle adapter, as expected, is not as sharp as the base lens, but it IS quite usable if you are careful.  

Oh... to answer your question.  The sharpening appears to be about the same between the '24' and '70'.   It is not an issue of the lens.  Come to think of it, my old Phantom 4 Pro made Raw files that were definitely manipulated to remove barrel distortion so I would bet half the farm that there is a lot of software involved with what Camera Raw sees.  Once I recall using some other app to open the P4 Pro raw images and they were very barrel distorted and vignetted.  

Bottom line.  As a pragmatist and someone who has flown close to 2000 hours in a helicopter taking photos - this little sucker is fantastic.

I tried editing some of Billy Kyle's sample DNGs in Lightroom Classic and was quite impressed with the default corrections. It will be interesting to check again when Adobe add profiles for the Air 3S cameras to Camera Raw. I'm never quite sure what they include, but it's more than just distortion correction, as you get access to the full set of colour profiles. I saw a little fringing in the 70mm highlights, but pretty good already. I don't think the 24mm sensor has an AA filter. You can see some moire in his sample shots and videos looking down on tiled roofs. Hopefully Adobe will improve this in their profiles too.
