Sometimes the sky appears to be HUGE.



Taken with the Mini 3 Pro and an AEB3.

Nice shot DAFlys, you can really see the benefit of AEB there. Have experience the highlight blowout on low light AEB's some are mentioning in the main forum? I'm curious if it's just an AEB mode thing or happens if you do manual AEB as well?

Funny you say that,   I went out the other day and took a lot of AEB in low light and everything was under exposed. .  I think I had the screen on the controller set too bright.  

Is that the upward gimble rotation working for you again there?

Go figure??? Clearly swimming against the tide :-)

Yes,   the upward reach is fantastic on this drone.

They do warn you on DSLRs not to push the brightness on the displays too far as this can happen.

I use the over exposure warning display and set my manual exposure until I just can't see any flashing of over exposure then go one click more so I'm guaranteed to capture the highlights, then unintuitively I open up about 1.4 stops then push the AEB button. That means my fastest exposures will just capture the highlights when the camera does the 2x 0.7 under exposure brackets and the over exposure shots will open up the maximum amount of shadows. If that fastest exposure isn't just capturing the brightest tones you potentially aren't capturing the largest range of tones. Using the over exposure warning that way wouldn't  be affected by screen brightness.

Wow, what a spectacular shot DA.    You've got to really like how far the up reach is on the Mini 3 Pro.

You're very welcome.    Despite the on again, off again weather your feet flown goes up daily it seems.

Yesterday was horrendous, today sunny spells but still windy. No droning for me.

Beautiful capture DAFlys.

Too windy here sadly,   and after a lot of running about SHMBO'd had a covid booster to get to,  Although shes not 65 the DR's surgery was giving it to anyone that wanted one.

Ours are programmed for Tuesday week.
Weather is dull but still. Not inspiring for flying the drones.
If I do go out it will only be for mileage.

Well last night we were forecast to wake up to a morning of rain which pleased SHMBO'd as that would excuse her walking today,  but no rain and no forecast of rain but very overcast and like you uninspiring.

Not a problem.
It has been quite quiet lately here.
My average is going down.
