|
No.
|
How can I improve signal
reception?
|
The smartphone clamp of the remote
controller houses the antennas. Make sure that the antennas are pointed

transmitting wearables, and that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are turned off on your
phone.
|
What

|
Normal
photos can be taken in 12 MP or 48 MP, and RAW format is also available for
more advanced editing.

4K/30fps. Slow-motion videos are available in 1080p with up to 240 fps (8x
slow-motion).
|
Can
I shoot in Dlog or a different flat color profile?
|
Mavic
Air 2 offers D-Cinelike as a flat color profile.
|
What
are the advantages of a Quad Bayer filter?
|
When
shooting videos, a Quad Bayer filter allows the camera to control the use of
short, medium, and long exposure times in the same pixel array, which results
in higher dynamic range. For photos, the filter allows for taking
high-resolution photos of up to 48 MP.
|
What
are the advantages of the H.265 video codec?
|
The
HEVC (H.265) is a more modern video codec than H.264; it retains more
information and uses less storage space.

Can
I control the camera manually?
|
Yes.
|
What is SmartPhoto?
|
SmartPhoto integrates scene recognition, Hyperlight, and
HDR into one mode for optimal results. Scene recognition optimizes different
camera parameters for different scenes and supports intelligent recognition
of five categories: sunset, blue sky, grass, snow, and green trees.
Hyperlight optimizes photos taken at night or in low-light situations. HDR
selects the best image from multiple layers thanks to an adaptive dynamic
expansion algorithm that determines optimal parameters.
|
In what Hyperlapse modes can I
record in 8K?
|
8K resolution can only be used in
Free and CourseLock modes, and will be available soon via a firmware update.
|
What
is FocusTrack mode?

consists of three different intelligent tracking modes, ActiveTrack 3.0,
Point of Interest 3.0 (POI), and Spotlight 2.0. All three modes offer
different tracking features for any situation.
|
What
intelligent flight modes does Mavic Air 2 support?
|
Mavic
Air 2 supports QuickShot, Hyperlapse, and FocusTrack.
|
Are
there any video recording settings where APAS 3.0 or FocusTrack are
unavailable?
