"The Secret Canyon"
My second experience with the Dji Spark drone, this time a much more difficult image with extreme dynamic range.

Shot in the incredible Sigoldugljufur Canyon in the Icelandic Highlands.

Hope you like it! :-)

But but but DNG/RAW is needed for good photos!

Excellent shot!

Well, RAW helps, but I see no big problem with dynamic range in the Spark jpegs. Still, I would love to have RAW to fine tune 100% view detail.

Great shot!!
We would all love raw/dng from the spark but its not likely to happen just yet i think. Think of the Spark as a point and shoot camera, you can get great results with what you have. If you are having issues with dynamic range use HDR or manually capture your shots with various EV compensations then combine later.

No doubt it helps, but the sentiment around here sounds like anything good is impossible without RAW. You prove it wrong!

I've been shooting and editing landscape photos for 13 years... the problem with jpeg images from smartphones and drones is not the lesser quality when compared to RAW, but rather the fact that the automatic jpeg compression/sharpening is usually exaggerated and not too precise. Even for dynamic range, only very demanding images will show an advantage with RAW.

The real advantage of RAW exists when it's used by someone who know how to post-process and extract maximum detail and quality from the file.
