DJI Drones Point of Interest - Settings

The way we access point of interest is

different from previous models like the

Mini3 Pro. We must now tap this icon on

the left of the screen for the three

intelligent flight modes grouped under

the name focus track. Spotlight, point

of interest, and attic track.

The three modes are only available when

the aircraft is flying.

The name of the modes appear in a small

window at the bottom of the screen. We

select the one to the right, point of

interest.

If the scene contains people or

vehicles, they will be identified with a

plus sign. Simply tap the icon to choose

one of them as a target. Objects,

landmarks, or buildings can also be

selected by drawing a box around them. A

yellow arrow will appear to specify the

direction and the speed. In the mini

repro, the orbiting speed was too slow

even when set a maximum value. Luckily,

it has now been increased. It is

possible to modify the speed during the

move by dragging the arrow which is

handy. We can then hit the green icon go

with point of interest. Most of the

settings for video are available. The

exposure and white balance can be set

either to auto or manual. There is a

choice of resolution for 1080p or 4K

with frame rates up to 60 frames per

second.

With the Mavic 4 Pro, when using the

wide lens, a higher 6K resolution is

also available.

The Mini4 Pro and the 3S have three

video color profiles, normal, DLOG, and

HLG. The Mavic 4 Pro has a fourth

option, DLOG, while the Flip only offers

normal and DLOG M.

For safety reasons, it is suggested to

set the obstacle avoidance systems to

break or bypass before starting the

moves.

The only model analyze here without

omnidirectional obstacle sensors is the

flip.

When using this model, ensure you fly

above all surrounding obstacles.

While using point of interest, the two

sticks of the remote controller can be

used to apply extra moves to the

rotation like getting closer or further

away from the target, ascending or

descending.

It is also possible to apply digital

zoom during the rotation using the left

wheel of the remote controller.

There will be a loss of resolution while

encoding at 4K unless you're using the

Mavic 4 Pro with a wide angle lens.

When aircraft is close to the maximum

allowed altitude, point of interest will

not work and an error message will

appear on the screen. In this case,

simply lower the altitude and try again.
