    The Air 2S, Air 2 & DJI Mini 2 are all capable of producing outstanding cinematic video, as long as you make use of some key settings for the Gimbal and Camera
    I explain how adjusting Pitch Speed, Pitch Smoothness, Yaw Rotational Speed and Yaw Smoothness can smooth out your flying letting you take truly cinematic footage.

    Yaw Smoothness: High: Android 20 - 25 iOS: 70 - 90

    Your tutorials and drone advice films are the clearest and most helpful I've come across on YT. Thanks.
    A small addendum though. Maybe the Mini 2 menus have been updated, but mine doesn't have "advanced Gimbal Settings", but the same controls can be found under "Gain & Expo Tuning". And Pitch is now called Gimbal. There's an additional control setting for "Expo" in Normal & Sport modes

    I do use low pitch/yaw values, but not quite so high on smoothness as you, particularly on yaw smoothness. I detest the overrun that causes you to miss your target, even after many attempts to predict tge amount and timing of that overrun. 15 tops, and only on Cine. Additionally, Sport mode is not meant for filming anything. It is for sporty flying, not filming. That said, I have slowed speed & smoothness by about 20% from default, mostly because I suck at sporty flying! Thanks for a sorely needed discussion on this!
