I hope you enjoy these tips and tricks from this video to get the best quality video out of the Mavic Air 2! Thanks for watching, drop a comment below!

[@mard6956]

Hi, do you teach any video editing classes?

[@donnafortner7651]

Awesome Vid !! I have the inspire 2 and Mavic Pro 2, and honestly for the money the Air 2 is a steal!! thanks for the downloads also!! Would love to take a workshop from you in the future if that's available or online one on one tutorials!! I m new to video, been a photographer for 30 years

[@TRiLLNEiL]

Probably the most informative and to the point video on the Mavic Air 2 that i have seen yet. Even explaining things in depth from a beginner to professional prospective. You have a new subscriber my friend!

[@devinjtatro]

Thank you! That’s what I was hoping for. Glad it’s helpful ✌️

[@sobecmackofil]

Big thanks. I checked at least 5 videos on video settings but this one the easiest to understand.

[@devinjtatro]

I’m so happy to hear you found this video helpful! Thanks for the comment!

[@jeffpv.]

I just got a Air 2 a few days ago, $789 for the fly more combo is tough to beat for what you are getting. I took notes, and will be trying out these settings. Thanks, subscribed!

Learning the dark art of motion blur.... using a variable ND filter. Setting to manual... iso 100... 2,7k at 50 frames... setting the ND filter looking at a bright area of the scenery till it starts to darken off...gives me options of slo mo. Giving good results.

Thank you for not only sharing but making it easy to digest. I am a new user

[@alexalamo5910]

Thanks man. Just got it mavic air 2 today and everything you said made sense. You just gotta put the puzzle together and make it look good.

[@xaviak8960]

That was really helpful for someone who is a beginner, can't wait to get out and learn more once these Covid restrictions ease here in Melbourne.

[@devinjtatro]

Glad it was helpful! Hopefully you can get out soon!

[@dankujcreations]

Great video! While flying the drone has been natural for me, I'm still learning the basic of photography/videography so your explanations on why settings should be changed is very much appreciated. Thanks!

[@shanecohen9810]

Going to try these settings out today, excited for warmer days

[@4Sausage4]

How did you go? I would be posting them to my social platforms and it comes up as if a potato filmed.

Awesome let me know how it is ✌️

[@monstermac77]

Really great stuff, Devin. Just subscribed. You covered all aspects of making the results look dope, whether you want to do post processing or not. I've watched maybe a dozen videos trying to cover the same things, but your video did it the most comprehensively AND succinctly, an impressive combo. Will be referring to it often as I begin to explore dropping auto and switching to manual.

[@devinjtatro]

That’s awesome, I’m so glad to hear my video was helpful. I put a lot of work in and hope my points make sense and that I provide decent examples! Thanks for the stoke ✌️

Recently brought the Mavic air 2 and loving it so far. Thanks for the tips. Great video, easy instructions and most of all you talk at a speed I can understand rather than 500 miles an hour like some lol.. subscribed 😊

[@scottgmaclean]

Hi Devin - do you think DJI will bring a firmware update to reduce sharpness. The oversharpened image is the only negative with the Air 2.

[@devinjtatro]

They could.. it would be nice if they gave the option to customize the image profiles a bit more.

[@baronperez8200]

Devin ty so much for this run down. Recently purchased the air 2 and loving it. Been looking for something like this. Instant sub. Ty for helping educate a novice drone user and look forward to more. Btw, I also bought the flymore combo w/ ND filters so I look forward to that video as well.

[@devinjtatro]

Awesome ! Thanks for the kind comment 👍

[@thomasroseman575]

Great video. Explaining nice and at great pace. So I was glued to what you wer said. Learned a lot . I have the mini2 so I don't have all the settings the air 2 does. But I will go out and try to get better footage. Any brand nd filters you recommend or ones to stay away from? Thanks

[@devinjtatro]

Hopefully the tips I shared help for any drone! And yeah I can link some filters below …I prefer freewell or polar pro

[@madassmac]

Amazing work! I got my Mavic Air 2 a few weeks ago and I just got some ND filters ( PGYTECH ) 8 16 32 and 64. Your footage is super clean and I hope you can make a video on how to use ND filters. Again, great job on your videos. Got yourself a subscriber.

Thanks for Luts👍💪 Also you mentioned that in HDR mode that it is Auto exposure only and that exposure may change when moving around, however you can lock the exposure with the little padlock 🔐 next to the EV. Then will not change. Not sure if you knew this but hey ho thought would mention..

[@devinjtatro]

Hey I appreciate the comment! I looked into that and it actually won’t let you lock AE.. it says not available in this mode. Maybe I’ll have to make a follow up video on HDR.

[@m.jorquera]

Dope video. Appreciate the info. Any particular reason you don't shoot in 4k 24fps for cinematic results?

[@devinjtatro]

Good question! Mainly to slow down any micro jitters I may have caused while flying .. slowing it down from 30 to 24 and esp 60 to 24 it smooths everything out.. sometimes I shoot 24. It just depends on what it is 👍

[@epi9042]

Insane Job. I'm kinda new to videography - but what's the reason behind to shoot in 60fps/30fps and extract it in 23.769, almost 24 fps? Losing of information? Do you ever shoot in 24 fps? I don't know it and would be really amazed if you can answer that! =)

[@devinjtatro]

Thanks for the comment ✌️ when you conform your footage to 24 you get a nice slow effect from higher frame rates.. I’ll shoot 24 if I don’t want to slow down my footage at all like interviews or things that need to be in real time. I hope that makes sense and is helpful! Thanks again 👊

Now I have to upgrade everything. Who knew? Can you recommend a STARTING point for CPU & Video card? After all, I am a subscriber now!! Thx.

[@MattKendallPhotoVideo]

Do you know of any reasons the mavic air 2 might be giving me grainy images? settings I've used listed: Bright sunny day ISO 100 4k 24 fps shutter 1/50 ND 64 filter H.265 codec D-cinelike auto white balance histogram shows everything leveled out in the middle, but I still get grain. Very noticeable in the shadows, but noticable on perfectly lit objects too.

[@devinjtatro]

Great question, looks like all of your settings are correct but I’d consider maybe a lower ND filter. Last night I did a shoot where I was shooting 4K 30 ND 16, shutter 60 iso 100 and I ended up needing to bump my iso up to like 400 which I didn’t want to so then I took the nd off and switched to 4k 60 no ND and shutter 120-160 and iso 100. Even though I had to over crank a little on my shutter I would rather do that than introduce more noise because the sensor is small and already has some noise I definitely don’t want to introduce more if I can help it. This thing needs a good amount of solid light I’m finding to get a clean image .. I hope this helps! Let me know and good luck!

[@williamcoine3710]

Great video. I have an issue you may be able to address. I've got the Mavic Air2 and an iPhone. When I click on the "filmstrip" icon right above the red shutter button on the app, I only see two rows of options. There should be four. The first two are the basic, but the last two that allow for more options will not show up. DJI is clueless and unable to explain why. (I was on the phone for over an hour with them, and they gave up.) Any suggestions?

[@billmeador215]

Excellent video and tips.............one question............can you edit 60fps in DaVinci Resolve? I have tried using you recommended 60fps but when I take it in to DaVinci it will not import correctly or play back if I accept the software recommendation for changing the timeline.....everything is jumpy and will not export correctly. Don't think I can afford Premier Pro, retired on fixed income, so any advice would be appreciated!

[@devinjtatro]

Great question! I edit to a 23.976 timeline in premiere. So I have to conform my footage to match and it slows my 60fps down to about 40% speed.

[@billmeador215]

Thanks for the info...............did more research and editing experiments in Resolve and found the solution, got things going now. Keep the vids coming!

[@janabiphotos]

Nice video & tips ... can you tell if the gimble of the mavic air 2 has smooth cinematic move when mobility from normal view to down view for example ? This feature was available on mavic mini but not sure if it is Available on mavic air 2
