Just do any cropping you want in post off the FOV version, if you're shooting at 4k then just set up a 1080 sequence in Premiere and you have tons of latitude for cropping and stretching
Here is a couple of suggestions I would like DJI to incorporate. 1. In the "P" mode have ALL collision sensors turn on or make it in the menu what collision sensors you can activate. This would keep you from flying sideways in a tree. 2. I would like to swap the settings in "LEFT" gimbal dial so I would rotate it to the "right" to point the camera down and rotate it "LEFT" to bring the camera back up.
Thx, helped alot better than rotating the drone, however, you mention that the 'C1' button on the bottom will return the gimble to straight forward but I thought 'C1' was a customized button that has to be programmed thru settings. Clarify please.
Regarding the Pro’s version... DJI did release this information. They Full FOV setting is the downsampled 5.x video crushed into a UHD resolution. The HQ setting is utilizing full pixel readout. (No binning). It’s also not a Hasselblad camera. It’s a Sony sensor DJI glass leveraging Hasselblad’s 10bit color science. Aloha
DJI can call it Hasselblad... even though it is the same sensor as the Sony RX100 Mark 5 as all Hasselblad sensors are from Sony... AND... Sony bought Hasselblad outright about 2 years back. The lenses for my Inspire 2 are made by Fuji actually...
@@drewarmstrong4325 : Check the details, DJI Directly own a large stake in Hasselblad. Ventizz (Private Equity Co.) used to own 100% of it. (Hasselblad: Colab with Sony since 2012) (Not sure who made my I2 Kit Lens, I thought it was a Panasonic?? - my Zoom Lens is a Panasonic Pancake Lens.)
Hi, I just got my mavic 2 zoom delivered today and after all updates I cant workout how to activate that camera pan feature from your video. Helllpppp!!!!!
Great tips Brett! Just got a Mavic 2 Pro myself and am glad I did after months of debating which one to get. Thanks for posting this. Looking forward to more. Subscribed!
you missed the biggest advantage of the 4K HQ - it's 10 bit instead of 8 bit. That's giving a lot more color information for advanced color grading. And also, it's the FOV that is downsampled to 4K. The HQ is 1:1 pixel mapping with no downsample, which is why it's cropped.
That ability to zoom with the Mavic 2 Pro is an important feature. I bought the Zoom the other day, because of that. Had I known about being able to do that with the Pro, it would have been worth the little extra $ for the Pro version. Great selling point that they should capitalize on.
Hey man thanks as always. But at min 4:10 you mention fov is higher quality. Everywhere else I’m seeing online says HQ is higher quality. Just mentioning. But like you said, they’re both amazing.
I know you've realised already, but just to be precise... HQ is not a digital zoom, but real 4K taken from the center of the sensor, about 39mm (not 56). Full FOV is about 5.4K downsized to 4K, hopefully without line skipping. If image processing is properly done, both formats are pretty good, although only HQ takes advantage of 10bit h265 if I'm not wrong.
Hi Brett, this is increadle information. Congratulations and thanks for sharing. Do you know how much weight can 2 Pro lift? I want a drone for fishing. Regards, Paul
Brett Garamella since I’m living in the Netherlands it’s better for me to use AliExpress. It’s the cheapest way for me. But thanks for all. In case I have questions I will ask you
thank's for heads up, still decided what drone buy. 4 of my top five, actualy my top 4 are dji, 5 is bebop2 but only cause of skycontroller black, dji should have put hdmi on mavic's and spark. but as old school film photographer i should tell you FOV is not FULL OV, It is Fiel Of View or you viewing angle, hence 28mm and 40mm 28mm being wide angle, and 35-50 being human eye frontal view depending on person.
The 4K HQ isn't downsampled. It's a 1:1 pixel readout. The 4K Full FOV is downsampled from 5.2k to 4k. The pro is the way to go! If you additionally crop the 4K HQ footage 115% you get an equal focal length to the Zoom and equal or better quality.
Awesome! I'm guessing the HQ will be SLIGHTLY sharper, but will have a little worse low light performance. Still even after cropping the sensor it's still a bigger size than the one of the zoom.
The panning worked as described but when hitting the C1 button to return to horizontal, the camera goes to 90 degrees down. Then I have to press the C1 again for the camera to go horizontal. Did I miss something?
Wow, didn't konw that we can move the camera with the finger. Thanks for the video man ! Just received the Mavic zoom. Looking forward for your other videos about this amazing drone ^^
@@brettgaramella You failed to mention that the Zoom will go from 28 to 96 mm. It will zoom 2x optically and 2 more digitally for a total of 4x. And this is while you're flying!
Brett Garamella you don’t like to digitally zoom but you don’t mind digitally cropping. That makes sense. That’s the whole purpose of zooming... being able to get the shot without flying closer.
OK Brett, 2 questions, 1) I never thought about the zoom because it could zoom I guess. I'm thinking of the over all quality of the video because I'm going to take it to my editor to zoom and pan as needed. Am I missing something. You always loose something on a digital zoom so unless it is an optical zoom where you are filling the sensor without loosing pixels. 2) I asked you a question in another video that I had not received a response yet but I was thinking about waiting for the Mavic 3 or not. I'm also deciding my best controller. Phone, pad, glasses, goggles or their high end controller. I've had issues with my phone plug staying connected so that makes me nervous. Any suggestions? I also have a laptop with wifi.
Sweet😀😀👏 have you ever experience the black screen issue??? And do you know how to factory reset these mavic 2. Unlike the mavic pro. It doesn't offer you the factory reset option. Please if you can. Hope you would help. 👏👏👍👍👍
The zoom also records a "sharper" image because of the focal length. In most shooting scenarios, the zoom will give you a better image overall. The Pro is only beneficial for lower light scenes. The HDR ability is also a bit gimmicky. A lot of reviewers have been disappointed with the Pro's performance in relation to the pricing above the zoom.
the camera panning actually works but the back left remote button does not recenter the gymbal on mine...Do you have a special setting on your remote?....There are the C buttons but there is no setting that recenter ONLY the camera without aiming totally down first before recentering...YOU cannot use this while filming obviously unless you want to shoot your feet...how did you get this setting to directly recenter?
With the 4k HQ vs full FOV. The HQ stands for High Quality, it is 1:1 pixel true 4k it is higher quality than full FOV because you don’t get the Moiré issues anywhere as much, along with the other issues to get with downsampling the full 5k to 4k that the drone has to do when in full FOV. 4k HQ is a ‘native’ resolution 4k full FOV is a processed 5k image. Note: I’m not 100% sure if it’s a processed image on if they are doing the cheap old trick of skipping pixels out when recording the image. Which is an even worse way to get 4k off a 5k sensor but takes little to no CPU power.
The difference will probably show up first in areas with nearly horizontal lines, as either moire or flickering. Agree that it is in many cases subtle.
so you have 48 mm max focal length on the zoom and 39,2mm on the pro? what about the quality? could you show a 100% crop or 1000% crop on both drones with max "zoom"?
I think the reason why DJI did not mention that zoom feature on the mavic 2 pro is because they would not sale as many mavics 2 zoom as that is the strong key salling feature of the drone. Like you sayd, now that you know of then the pro version is in your thoughts... by the way!! I love your spanish accent 😀😀
From what I understand, the Pro in HQ mode only crops the captured image giving you a different framing. It is not a mechanical zoom and does not change the depth of field. On the other hand, the zoom ratio on the Zoom, in my opinion, does not justify it’s lower megapixel resolution. You can do creative zooming and “Ken Burns” effects in post processing of a high resolution Pro image.
Brett Garamella Good points. BTW ... in good light, where the subject is not too close to the lens, I couldn’t differentiate my Mavic Air footage from my P4P on small computer 27” screens. Here’s my video that is mostly done with an Air. vimeo.com/280662563
Brilliant video..!!! I have subscribed and allowed all notifications.. :-) I have the Pro and last year did very little with it but this year, having bought the Smart Controller and some extra batteries, I intend to do a lot more... like learning to fly it properly and do my ACof2 and another course that I can`t remember... I know there is a lot negative comments about the SC but I, for one, wouldn`t be without, the freedom of not being chained to a mobile phone is brilliant..!!!
Good to know - Thanks Brett. I have the original Mavic Pro and the Mavic Air but I think I may have to invest in the Mavic 2 Pro. Butt-in? Haha. Thanks!
Good one for finding these features out. I don’t have a Mavic yet, but I would of thought that the ability to move the camera would be fundamentally a feature of the remote - or maybe I’m thinking of an Inspire with dual controllers?
Someone may have said this: Narrow FOV 4K should still be as high quality (pixels) as the Full FOV 4k Full Sensor = 5472x3648 = 19.9MP "4k" = 3840x2160 = 8.2k So in this mode the camera is either averaging or binning data. (Downsampling) at a 1/1.4 crop frame size = 3908 x 2605 = 10.2MP (still more data than is needed for a 4k video feed) (~68 pixels to crop in width and 445 in height to get the 4k frame size.) So downsampling or croping the Crop-frame data to 4k means that there doesn't need to be any "pixel" degradation, what it does mean is that at the full FOV the video can have a higher "bit" depth, meaning richer colours are (theoretically) possible. The image processor can use the data from all the pixels (>2x needed) for colour and image detail information. (Image degradation would only be visually apparent in cases if the video were upsampled, from say a 2k sensor to 4k output - that is hard to do well as the "missing" data can't actually be created (without an "AI" engine)) Narrowing the FOV on a short lens doesn't give the exact same perspective one would get from using a longer lens but with adequate information available the image (crop) still looks very good - not at all like the noise you get from "digital zoom" on a lot of low-end cameras/phones)...
1st secret was part of the Go4 „get to know“ tutorial on my smart controller, but you helped it click into my mind about the second secret that it’s actually like a 2nd prime lense. Funny that on an other Video the HQ was considered the better quality cinematic choice. Personally I prefer the full wide tho
thanks ! Any chance we can enjoy a test run by darkest light? Pushing both to their limits, so we can decide whether the 1" is really worth it by darkest conditions? Keep on!
You're a chief! thanks for your considerating of that. Here (France), regulation is incredibly "strict" (or ...mad?), i.e: no way you are allowed to fly whatever model at night -there is a precise delay after official sunset time, when you should be grounded. Amongst many other restrictions... So I'll be soo grateful for such a video (as all others). Enjoy you flights!
can you recommend a drone for those of us who dont own a smart phone or a "pad/tablet"?...I want to get into drones, but I dont want or need a smart phone or a pad/tablet....
Or you can get the DJI crystal sky monitor.. (It is a tablet with additional real buttons and 2 card slots - it uses batteries from the Cendence controller.) NB. Not cheap, but still less than a new iphone.
Yes, he has it backwards in the video. The pro has some zoom ability without resorting to digital zoom, which is an under-appreciated feature of that model.
An interesting test would be to crop the Pro 4K HQ to match the FOV of the zoom model at full zoom. I'll bet there isn't much quality difference even though the Pro image would be lower resolution.
Wow! Thanks for the tip! As you mentioned, it is similar to what you can achieve with the Inspire. Will have to fly using a co-pilot, though, until I can master this.
Hey Brother, not looking to hack on your list of "secrets" but the features you are discussing weren't pointed out because they aren't new. And for anybody whom have used any of the DJI Osmo products know about the finger pan and tilt feature. Also, the C1 and C2 bu'ens are programmable, as is the five point joy stick. Resetting the gimbal to centre is a programmable option to whichever bu'en you choose. Both of these features as well as the resolution cropping were all available from the first Mavic on through.
I bought the Zoom, but I am returning it and have already ordered the Pro. The Zoom takes really good video, but without having the ability to manually adjust camera settings (ISO, f/stop/shutter speed), the photo quality can be compromised, especially in low light areas because the camera will automatically go to a higher IS to maintain a good exposure. This results in fairly grainy photos. For what I use the drone for (video, but primarily still photos), the Pro will be a better drone for me (I hope).
@@brettgaramella Thanks for the quick reply! I took it out for another test flight and found that you are right on. When I changed the mode to manual I had much better control of exposure settings and got much better results by changing the ISO to 100 (vs 800). In Lightroom, you can use the detail control to reduce noise. You lose a little sharpness, but you can add it back and get pretty nice results if you do it right. I do like the ability to zoom, but I am really looking forward to the Pro version and compare the differences. Who knows? I may end up sending back the Pro and keeping the Zoom. I'll also be comparing the results to my Phantom 4 Pro, which also has a 1" sensor. At this point I still think I'm more inclined to the Pro rather than the Zoom. The Pro arrives tomorrow, so I will be making some more evaluations as soon as I get it. Thanks!
Brett Garamella Yes Brett everything else works normal! When I press the iPad mini screen it focuses the camera no blue dot. Any thoughts? Thanks again bro 👍🏼
I´m a little bit sad about my last fligth with the zoom. Im not quick enough to get home before the rain comes. 40 sec rain flight. Can i be sure about the safety of my drone? I have dried the drone outside. After that it run 40 minutes without flying just to keep the ventilator running. It all works well. Are there any experiences? Do i have to check it by DJI? Don´t know. Thank you.

This finger-panning trick is awesome makes spanning more smoother - especially with the Smart Controller.
Thanks for the finger panning tipp!
Thx, helped alot better than rotating the drone, however, you mention that the 'C1' button on the bottom will return the gimble to straight forward but I thought 'C1' was a customized button that has to be programmed thru settings. Clarify please.
Hi, question
when moving the camera to the sides, when pressing the button C1 it does not return to its place of origin, as I configure it?
Juan M. The button is customizable so you can’t put it on that setting
I think you have to stop recording to switch Modes on the pro, with the zoom you can zoom while recording
I suggest u make some photos or video to explain the difference of HQ mode and VOP mode. btw thanks at all.

Thank u. Never knew. I luv my pro even more now.
Hi, I just got my mavic 2 zoom delivered today and after all updates I cant workout how to activate that camera pan feature from your video.
Helllpppp!!!!!
Cropped means uses middle section of the sensor and then upscale it. Hence the zoom.
It would be nice if Litchi could allow you to pre-program gimbal movements like they do on the Osmo.
I don't have a lot of drones or the expensive controllers. I'm Working on it. TY very informative, Thumbs up well done

Croping an image and focal length are two complete different stories. So this guy speaks a lot of non sense for a couple of clicks.
I got my pro a few days ago and didn't even know the gimbal could do the panning thing! Thanks for the info.
Brett Garamella Can you assign that gimbal movement to the right wheel?
Hey man thanks as always. But at min 4:10 you mention fov is higher quality. Everywhere else I’m seeing online says HQ is higher quality. Just mentioning. But like you said, they’re both amazing.

Brett Garamella since I’m living in the Netherlands it’s better for me to use AliExpress. It’s the cheapest way for me. But thanks for all. In case I have questions I will ask you

Brilliant !!! Thanks Brett , new subscriber now !! Love it when normal people blow the big guys out the water X got a zoom

Yeh, I think the Mavic 2 Pro is impressively close to the Inspire 2 considering the size and price difference.
Even with the zoom at full zoom? No chance
The panning worked as described but when hitting the C1 button to return to horizontal, the camera goes to 90 degrees down.
Then I have to press the C1 again for the camera to go horizontal. Did I miss something?
In your menu you can program your c1 and C2 buttons to do what you want them to do.

Brett Garamella and most people watch videos on monitors that can’t tell the difference in 8 bit or 10 bit.
The 4K HQ is the higher quality option. This likely has to do with the downsampling from the full width of the sensor using pixel binning.
The difference will probably show up first in areas with nearly horizontal lines, as either moire or flickering. Agree that it is in many cases subtle.
Wouldn’t it be safer to remove the propellers when you’ve got the aircraft powered on inside?
Hola gracias viví en Cali Colombia.... thanks
Thanks for the video. Excellent input, keep 'em coming.
so you have 48 mm max focal length on the zoom and 39,2mm on the pro? what about the quality? could you show a 100% crop or 1000% crop on both drones with max "zoom"?
Bro really good Video. Telling your Viewers a feature no one else talks about!! Awesome
Thanks for video. On the original mavic you can zoom by squeezing the screen out and back in. Can you do that with the 2 pro?

Someone may have said this: Narrow FOV 4K should still be as high quality (pixels) as the Full FOV 4k
Full Sensor = 5472x3648 = 19.9MP
"4k" = 3840x2160 = 8.2k So in this mode the camera is either averaging or binning data. (Downsampling)
at a 1/1.4 crop frame size = 3908 x 2605 = 10.2MP (still more data than is needed for a 4k video feed)
(~68 pixels to crop in width and 445 in height to get the 4k frame size.)
So downsampling or croping the Crop-frame data to 4k means that there doesn't need to be any "pixel" degradation, what it does mean is that at the full FOV the video can have a higher "bit" depth, meaning richer colours are (theoretically) possible. The image processor can use the data from all the pixels (>2x needed) for colour and image detail information. (Image degradation would only be visually apparent in cases if the video were upsampled, from say a 2k sensor to 4k output - that is hard to do well as the "missing" data can't actually be created (without an "AI" engine))
Narrowing the FOV on a short lens doesn't give the exact same perspective one would get from using a longer lens but with adequate information available the image (crop) still looks very good - not at all like the noise you get from "digital zoom" on a lot of low-end cameras/phones)...
1st secret was part of the Go4 „get to know“ tutorial on my smart controller, but you helped it click into my mind about the second secret that it’s actually like a 2nd prime lense. Funny that on an other Video the HQ was considered the better quality cinematic choice. Personally I prefer the full wide tho
Yeah the HQ and Full FOV are nearly the same in image quality.
thanks !
Any chance we can enjoy a test run by darkest light?
Pushing both to their limits, so we can decide whether the 1" is really worth it by darkest conditions?
Keep on!
You're a chief!
thanks for your considerating of that.
Here (France), regulation is incredibly "strict" (or ...mad?), i.e: no way you are allowed to fly whatever model at night -there is a precise delay after official sunset time, when you should be grounded.
Amongst many other restrictions...
So I'll be soo grateful for such a video (as all others).
Enjoy you flights!
Would love to buy the maverick pro and smart controller,but shipping to Canada,with the exchange hurts the pocket,so I have to give up that dream
Good info..thanks
can you recommend a drone for those of us who dont own a smart phone or a "pad/tablet"?...I want to get into drones, but I dont want or need a smart phone or a pad/tablet....
Or you can get the DJI crystal sky monitor.. (It is a tablet with additional real buttons and 2 card slots - it uses batteries from the Cendence controller.) NB. Not cheap, but still less than a new iphone.
Just got my pro 2 today
I believe the Full FOV downsamples it's 5.5k to 4k. The HD is straight up 4k
Yes, he has it backwards in the video. The pro has some zoom ability without resorting to digital zoom, which is an under-appreciated feature of that model.
An interesting test would be to crop the Pro 4K HQ to match the FOV of the zoom model at full zoom. I'll bet there isn't much quality difference even though the Pro image would be lower resolution.
And the hq is the only mode that has 10bit full fov is only 8bit
@ Brett I will have a Pro wed. I'm psyched.
@@tagemathiassen u only get 10bit when filming d-log or hlg
Wow! Thanks for the tip! As you mentioned, it is similar to what you can achieve with the Inspire. Will have to fly using a co-pilot, though, until I can master this.
Hey Brother, not looking to hack on your list of "secrets" but the features you are discussing weren't pointed out because they aren't new. And for anybody whom have used any of the DJI Osmo products know about the finger pan and tilt feature. Also, the C1 and C2 bu'ens are programmable, as is the five point joy stick. Resetting the gimbal to centre is a programmable option to whichever bu'en you choose. Both of these features as well as the resolution cropping were all available from the first Mavic on through.
Nice video cannot wait for my drone to come in
Nice Video! I saw it on RUclips! Am I right that you can costumize the button on the backsite ?
i think this is the equivalent of course lock in previous phantom series----> the touch screen gimbal control
I bought the Zoom, but I am returning it and have already ordered the Pro. The Zoom takes really good video, but without having the ability to manually adjust camera settings (ISO, f/stop/shutter speed), the photo quality can be compromised, especially in low light areas because the camera will automatically go to a higher IS to maintain a good exposure. This results in fairly grainy photos. For what I use the drone for (video, but primarily still photos), the Pro will be a better drone for me (I hope).
@@brettgaramella Thanks for the quick reply! I took it out for another test flight and found that you are right on. When I changed the mode to manual I had much better control of exposure settings and got much better results by changing the ISO to 100 (vs 800). In Lightroom, you can use the detail control to reduce noise. You lose a little sharpness, but you can add it back and get pretty nice results if you do it right. I do like the ability to zoom, but I am really looking forward to the Pro version and compare the differences. Who knows? I may end up sending back the Pro and keeping the Zoom. I'll also be comparing the results to my Phantom 4 Pro, which also has a 1" sensor. At this point I still think I'm more inclined to the Pro rather than the Zoom. The Pro arrives tomorrow, so I will be making some more evaluations as soon as I get it. Thanks!
I've shot manually with my Zoom.... I think. Now I'm gonna go check! Lol
Great video! Seems like I can only pan the camera with the blue button when the drone is not flying! Have you tried panning in the air?
Brett Garamella Yes Brett everything else works normal! When I press the iPad mini screen it focuses the camera no blue dot. Any thoughts? Thanks again bro 👍🏼
I tried that but no luck! Hmmmm :-(
Brett, Good news bro :-) Reinstalled DJI GO4 and I am good to go! Woo-Hoo Thanks again dude!
can you use remote control or at least assign customize button to pan camera left or right?
I´m a little bit sad about my last fligth with the zoom. Im not quick enough to get home before the rain comes. 40 sec rain flight. Can i be sure about the safety of my drone? I have dried the drone outside. After that it run 40 minutes without flying just to keep the ventilator running. It all works well. Are there any experiences? Do i have to check it by DJI? Don´t know. Thank you.
Yes i have the Care
Yes no Problem
Cool mate thanks!
4:10 but DJI say that 4k HQ has a better quality, than fov. So who is right?)
He is good on camera. I hope he accepts the feedback, and corrects his few pronunciation glitches. It is what a professional would do.
Well. This tips have been known for a while now !!
Specially 4K hq.
Well done. Liked and subbed
