Let's have a closer look at what the Mavic Mini's camera actually records. This is the raw 2.7K output, recorded onto a Samsung EVO class 10 U3 micro SD card.
I've edited some of the footage too, but I tell you when I have, so you can compare the edited clips with the unedited footage of the same place.
What's in the video
- Raw 2.7K footage straight from the drone.
- Edited versions of some of the same scenes, clearly flagged.
- A feel for how much you can get out of the footage with a little editing.
Tips for better footage
If you're flying a small camera drone like this, a fast, reliable card matters. A U3 (or V30) rated micro SD card keeps up with high-bitrate video without dropped frames. For more on getting smoother, better-looking shots, see drone video tips.
