Camera in DJI Mavic 2 drone

What are the main advantages of the cameras in both the Mavic 2 Pro and Mavic 2 Zoom?

Mavic 2 Pro is equipped with an all-new Hasselblad L1D-20c camera. All-new 1-inch CMOS sensor has an active detection area four times more effective than the original Mavic Pro. The large sensor also means better low-light performance with an expanded ISO range, and a maximum ISO from 3200 to 12800.
Mavic 2 Zoom is a dynamic perspective. It is powered by a 12-megapixel 1/2.3-inch sensor with 4x zoom, including 2x optical zoom (24mm-48mm)

Why L1D-20c on Mavic 2 Pro designed by Hasselblad?
DJI and Hasselblad have spent the last two years working together to develop the L1D-20c camera, co-developing attributes such as lens definition, image processing engine and image effect optimization to make a Hasselblad-quality camera small enough to fit on the new Mavic 2 Pro. The L1D-20c also features Hasselblad's unique Natural Color Solution (HNCS) technology, helping users capture stunning 20-megapixel aerial shots in stunning color detail.

What advantages the Mavic 2 Pro has when recording video?
Mavic 2 Pro is capable of capturing 3840×2160 10-bit 4K Dlog-M and 4K HDR 10-bit videos at 100 Mbps.

What is the focal length of the Mavic 2 Zoom?
24-48mm optical zoom camera Mavic 2 Zoom supports shooting with 4x lossless 1080p video zoom.

Can I use the remote control to move the ball joint of the Mavic 2 gimbal 75 ° from left to right?
Not. However, you can do it in Head Tracking mode with the DJI Goggles series.

Why the Mavic 2 gimbal can't capture footage the way the Mavic Pro does?
The Mavic 2's gimbal structure has been optimized for increased rigidity, meaning the camera is not able to rotate 90°, which is necessary for shooting vertically. However, you can select the vertical mode in panorama to take vertical photos that are parts of the recorded area.

Why the Dlog-M function only works on the Mavic 2 Pro and not on the Mavic 2 Zoom?
Dlog-M is only available on the Mavic 2 Pro, as the Pro version is designed to meet the needs of professional photographers, meeting the requirements for greater color correction. On the other hand, the Mavic 2 Zoom has D-Cinelike to realize quick and easy color correction. Together with Dlog-M, D-Cinelike retains more information about key attributes and colors than any other color correction mode, leaving more options for post-processing.

Can the Mavic 2 take pictures while recording video?
Not.

What is the difference between Full FOV mode and HQ mode in 4K resolution Mavic 2 Pro?
Full FOV mode lowers the resolution from 5.5K to 4K resolution, while HQ truncates footage for better quality. The full view FOV is 75 ° and the view HQ- 55 °. You can choose between them according to your actual recording needs.

Can I set the focal length for Dolly Zoom on the Mavic 2 zoom?
Not.

How can I save the original images generated while recording Hyperlapse videos?
Go to Camera Settings and press the "Save Original" button. You can save the original images from the Hyperlapse movie in JPEG or RAW format. You have the choice of saving to a Micro SD card or internal memory.

Mavica 2 power supply

What is the maximum flight distance of the Mavic 2?
18 km in extreme test conditions, measured in windless conditions up to 50.4 km / h until the battery is fully discharged. Remember, however, to maintain adequate battery levels during the flight to ensure a safe return.

What is the maximum level of wind resistance in the Mavic 2?
Mavic 2 can withstand up to 5 on the Beaufort scale.

Can silent Mavic 2 propellers be used in Mavic Pro Platinum?
No, the sizes are different and that's why you can't use them on the Mavic Pro Platinum.

Why maximum flight time and hover time differ on Mavic 2?
Mavic 2 rotary system is optimized primarily for forward flight. Thanks to the aircraft's more aerodynamic frame, the Mavic 2 consumes less energy at certain forward speeds than when hovering. Accordingly, the maximum hover time is 29 minutes in no-wind conditions, while the maximum flight time can be up to 31 minutes at constant speed in no-wind conditions.

Mavica 2's omni-directional obstacle detection

What is omnidirectional obstacle detection?
Omni-directional obstacle detection includes left/right, up/down and forward/backward obstacle detection. Left/right direction detection is only available in ActiveTrack mode or Tripod mode.
Note: Omni-directional obstacle detection does not fully cover the 360-degree arc. Left and right obstacle detection system works only in certain modes and environments. DJI's warranty does not cover any loss due to left or right flight failure, even when ActiveTrack or Tripod mode is active. Pay attention to your surroundings and app notifications when operating the Mavic 2 to ensure safety.

Can I manually turn on/off the lower auxiliary light located on the bottom of the drone?
Yes. The default settings of the Mavic 2 have an automatic LED on, which turns the lower auxiliary lamp on/off depending on the brightness of the environment. You can disable this feature in the app, as well as manually turn the lower auxiliary lamp on/off.

Control and video transmission in Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom

How the FHD video transmission of the OcuSync 2.0 system has been improved over the first OcuSync system?
OcuSync 2.0 supports 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz frequency bands for greater immunity to interference and automatic switching to deliver 1080p video streams over 8 km (unobstructed, interference-free and FCC compliant).

What is the latency of OcuSync 2.0?
120-130 ms, which is 40-50 ms shorter than the first generation.

Does the remote control support HDMI output?
Not.

Can I use the Mavic Pro remote control to operate the Mavic 2?

Can I connect my smartphone to the remote control with a regular USB cable?
You can use a regular USB cable to connect your smartphone to the remote control via the USB port on the bottom of the controller (be sure to pull up the cable to the Micro USB port). However, this may prove to be a bit uncomfortable when flying the drone. The device comes with cables with different connectors, so you can choose the most suitable one for you.

Does the Mavic 2 support control via Wi-Fi?
Not. You can only control with the remote control.

What mobile devices does the remote control support?
Cell phones with a thickness of 6.5- 8.5 mm and a length of no more than 160 mm will fit comfortably in the remote control terminals. We strongly recommend removing the cover before connecting the cell phone. For tablets, beyond this measurement range, buy a DJI Mavic 2 tablet holder.

Battery- Mavic 2

Can I use the battery charging Hub splitter to charge four batteries simultaneously?
Not. The Battery Charging Hub splitter charges batteries sequentially according to their power level from high to low, avoiding the hassle of changing batteries during charging. Charging in sequence provides a fully charged battery in the fastest possible way.

How long does it take to fully charge the battery?
