Never ending story this is.
After the gimbal going dead out of the blue (had to downgrade - upgrade etc to get it back),
after photos never being recordered, just vanished,
after first photo shots always being overexposed and all this in Auto camera settings ....
Now all photos are overexposed in Auto mode BUT the video in all cases is always ok.
Dont know what to expect next but i do know that i cant trust this drone anymore!
Waiting for a firmware update, they said very soon weeks ago, that might of fixed all these but dont see it coming.

When you have everything connected, look for an EV value in the camera data line on the screen.
What is it?

I have two Phantoms 4 PRO with exact the same problem. One of them was sent to repair and right now I am looking forward to hear from the repair technicians.

Sorry to hear this!
To be honest sending for repair, although never been asked to send back through the forum or online chat, its not something i am looking forward to do.

There is one solution but is far from ideal of course. Put your camera in AEB, 3 shot burst, and choose D-Log profile mode. I noticed that one of the pictures in the sequence is always properly exposed. At least you can fly your drone. Best of luck, mate.

Bracketing could be a "solution" although a waste of time and space when the craft should be doing what is supposed to do.
Thanks mate and i will give it a try.
PS: I miss my P3P!
