This may be a stupid question but Is there a way to view the settings used to shot a particular video. I am shoting in 4k, mov and wanted to check the settings I had set for colour mode, contrast etc.. as i obviously cannot remember.

Sady, there isn't. But there is a way should DJI see fit to add it to EXIF data -- please submit your feature request via Go 4's Me/DJI Support/Product Suggestion interface -- the more of us who request, the more likely they'll consider adding.

This is what a movie's EXIF data currently provides:

If you had enabled video captions at that time, Home, GPS, BAROMETER, ISO, Shutter, EV and Fnum will be recorded. If there is a need for displaying other settings, maybe I will try to forward this requirement to the engineers. Thanks for bringing us the attention.

This is a great suggestion.
I sometimes wonder the same.
Not sure if there are EXIF fields that are available for video files.
We have had this in our pictures for some time now.

Will they be added in the EXIF fields of the video file?

Hi djiuser_GZzJ7vv,

Thanks for your suggestion. Now the GPS info and gimbal info would be in the mov file which have been fetched at the start of the movie recording. For the other information, we will talk about it inner and may try to add it to the the MOV later.

I've got that video caption, but where could I check the meta-data, could you, please, show the screenshort?

Hi,

If the camera settings (iso - shutter speed - f/stop - etc) were saved in the Video file, then Adobe LightBridge (and other apps) would easily be able to read it.

Most cameras (all that I use other than the one on my Phantom 3 Pro) store that data in the video file, why didn't DJI opt to add this important data?

DJI has been around a while and these aren't 1st gen cameras I don't think...

What can we do to help them see the value in this simple request?

Thanks...  Anthony
