DJI Avata 2 Low Light Testing - AMAZING Results!

I took the DJI Avata 2 to do some low light testing at t sunrise at the rice terraces in Bali. The results were stunning. This camera performs very well in low light and even better than the GoPro 12 I use on other drones.

The flying clips are great, but I just came here to say I appreciate all the effort you put into editing and sound design. That effort pays off - Good job!!

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Hey! Thank you so much! I feel like if i'm taking the time to get nice shots. Then I should take the time to put together an edit that does them justice. Sound design is vital in my opinion. Have you had chance to fly the Avata 2 yet? 😃

[@olabergvall3154]

@@JustinBainbridgeYT No, no fpv yet, just cinematic. Keep up the good work!

Your smile is contagious. Your joy in flying the Avata is almost as good as the footage.

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Haha, thank you. I'm just trying to get back to enjoying what I'm doing after a bit of rough time creatively. I can feel the nojo coming back so the videos will be getting better and better 😃

The Avata 2 is SO much fun. Long time DJI pilot from 1st Mavic, P4P, Mavic Air 2... Just getting into FPV with the A2 and it's been a BLAST. First drone I've owned that is fun to fly for literally just the sake of flying it. Subject to film or no subject to film. Very happy with my purchase.

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Welome to FPV! It's awesome, the Avata 2 is also such a great little drone. The perfect first FPV drone in my opinion, do be careful. FPV drones have a habit of multiplying when you get them 😂

Hi there, this is the 3rd video watching and let me tell you that you make me want to buy my first FPV drone soon. I've been on a mini2 DJI for a bit over 2 years but FPV is a total different level. Thanks for sharing your videos and will keep watching your channel. Keep safe 👍

Thank you! I edit using Adobe Premiere pro and get all of my music/sfx from Artlist.io 😃

[@jasonzdora]

Looks awesome!! Can I ask what you did for camera settings? Im assuming manual 100iso, 120 shutter with a low ND? Any major tweaks in post?

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Thank you! Sure my settings were as follows - Manual, ISO 100. 120 shutter, 5500k WB, 4K60, Ultrawide, Rocksteady, Dlog-m. No ND in this case, I''m waiting on my freewell filters to arrive. In post I had to play with each clip, but mostly just increasing the contrast a touch, lowering the shadows or lifting them if the contrast pulled them too far, add saturation, add a little warmth, and that's pretty much it. some higlight adjustment on some clips but nothing major to be honest. I really like the dynamic range on this one. I chose not to do uch of a colour grade on this as I liked the natural tones.

[@alexandrefriesen]

Hey bro! Nice shots! Just got the Avata 2 here, and wanna ask you… are you using rocksteady or gyro in these shots? I was using the DJI fpv with the gopro 11 on it, and the gopro is really more ultrawide after the gyroflow… and I tested all the ways here with the Avata 2 and is hard to say wich settings is the best… What do you think?

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

I've was using ultrawide with rocksteady for all of these shots, 2 of them were shot in 4:3 so I could also crop them for instagram, but for me, those are my go to settings. I did used to stabilise O3 footage in gyroflow and still stabilise all my gopro footage in gryoflow but the new version of rock steady is much better in my opinion. I fly pretty smoothly anyway so the stabilisation that rocksteady does is fine for ma and saves me a lot of time in post. 😃

[@alexandrefriesen]

@@JustinBainbridgeYT great! Thank you do much for your answer… helps me a lot 🙏🏻 keep creating great contents bro!

[@geelucky13]

Do a night flight justin if yaa wanna do a low light test..

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Hey! I never fly at night. Sunrise and sunset are the low-light settings I normally fly in so that's what I'm most interested in seeing. 😃

[@THEEYEINTHESKIES]

@@JustinBainbridgeYTcould you imagine in the jungle without any sensors trying to fly an FPV drone 😅

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

@THEEYEINTHESKIES 😂 Yeah, it would be a mission, especially since these rice terraces have ziplines, wires, and swings everywhere. The wires are hard enough to see in the daytime 😅 I was really impressed with the footage either way, the O3 looked terrible when I flew it here, I still have the footage and the difference is insane. This new camera is actually beautiful. Better low light than a GoPro too.

[@geelucky13]

Yeaa i get man , btw amazing footage bruv.

[@ericcote8146]

Hi everyone, I've been flying the Mini 4 Pro for over 8 months now. 3 of my batteries are now sending the message to the RC2 : Battery Count is reaching limits. I checked one of them and it's at 179. Is there a way to reset this ? I don't see deterioration of the battery life while flying. I will post a video showing this on my FB page

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Hey! This is because the batteries have a 200 cycle lifespan as said by DJI. As far as I am aware, there's no way to reset the cycle count. So I doubt there's any way to prevent this message from coming up on high cycle count batteries. I'm glad to hear you've got in lots of flying and are still getting good life from the batteries though 😃

[@Drone_and_I]

How do you setup is this gyro flow or rock steady? Good job

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

I use Rock steady on the Avata 2 99% of the time. You can use Gyroflow by using these settings in the camera menu. FOV wide, EIS OFF. Then you can import the footage to gyroflow and stabilise it there. I use between 0.1 and 0.3 for the smoothness and 8 seconds for the zooming speed.

[@abrambah]

Hello, I'm wondering how you got DJI Care Refresh from Bali? DJI Support says I cannot buy DJI Care Refresh if I bought my DJI Avata 2 in Indonesia. Appreciate if you could enlighten me. Thanks.

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Hey! You are right there is no Care Refresh here in Bali. I don't have care refresh for my Avata 2. I will just have to pay for repairs or buy a new one if mine gets damaged. It's not available in Indonesia 🙃

[@abrambah]

@@JustinBainbridgeYT Thank you 🙏

[@did3d523]

AVATA2 IS make to be fixed by DJI its fragile the busness of fixing is more important for there than selling drone !

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

It is more fragile, yes, but for how a cinewhoop should be flown, I think it's fine. Being lightweight sometimes comes at the cost of durability. But it comes with many benefits when you're flying. 😃

[@maxsteal1982]

Hay how about make a video to target. Why do we need so many controllers? DJI IS NOT being environmentally friendly. You KZbinrs must reach out to DJI to also have the controller 3 compatible with others drones like the Mini 4 and Air 3 Or the RC 2 compatible with the Avata 2. This seems so logical why hasn't DJI done this? It's all O4 so it should just be a software update.

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

Hopefully more cross compatability will come in future updates. A agree that it's annoying to have so many different peices, but some things are better suited to certain products. It would make sense for the RC2 to become compatible with goggles 3 for the Mini 4 Pro. Only time will tell I guess. 😃

[@kaimultivideo4956]

You should stop calling 60 fps video “cinematic”.

[@JustinBainbridgeYT]

That's about as good as we're going to get on an FPV drone where we're doing the goggles feed and recording through the same camera. Flying at 30fps through the goggles is almost unflyably bad. Thanks for your input 😃

[@kaimultivideo4956]

@@JustinBainbridgeYT Slow it to 40% or 80% on a 24fps timeline, then it might be cinematic. Straight up 60fps looks cheesy for cinewhoop cruising.
