Really nice! Too bad I didn't make a picture, so I have to do it with a screengrab from the video....:

Thanks Dji Diana, do you have any thoughts as to why the Panorama won't upload ?

I still can't upload Panorama's, but I've just downloaded the DJI Media Maker Software. It makes the Pano stitching vey easy.

Thanks for uploading.
I must say the motion blur is quite prominent on the dark ones.
Maybe the 2axis gimbal is lacking here, as digital stabilization won't help you with long exposures

I was shooting 2 second exposures, so I would get the light trails.

Yeah, that is nice for sure.
But the gimbal is clearly not stable enough for that.
I remember seeing some Mavic shots with longer (up to 8 sec) exposures that did quite well.
Was it windy?

No it was fairly calm, I think given the 2 second exposures and the 100 ISO is was shooting, its not done a bad job.

I really like the pictures, but the gimbal seems not good enough for long exposures.
Look at similar exposures in this thread. (taken with Mavic)

Not sure what exposure he is using, but seems long enough to cause the nice light trails.

But thats not a good comparison, the Mavic camera is far superior to the Spark, so of course the images will be better. Plus these shots were 21 shot panorama's. In this light there will clearly be an issue with the image lining up correctly, hence the possible blur. . I wll try an AEB shot next time to see what the difference in IQ is.

Indeed, the mavic has a better camera system (in this case the gimbal will be the reason for less blur)
I never saw proof of that until now.
Some Mavic owners claim up to 8sec exposures.
Looking forward to see more
