DJI Mini 5 Pro - Med Tele vs Optical Zoon
Show More Show Less View Video Transcript
0:02
When I first saw footage taken in metal
0:05
mode, I found it very close to the
0:07
quality of a true optical lens.
0:13
There are many discussions on social
0:15
media about this mode with some users
0:18
stating that it is simply the equivalent
0:21
of a digital zoom.
0:29
In my opinion, it is a crop of the
0:31
central area of the image as the larger
0:33
sensor of the Mini 5 Pro can still
0:36
maintain a 4K resolution even after the
0:39
crop.
0:52
Comparing sidebyside the metallic clip
0:55
against a two times digital zoom or the
0:58
footage taken in normal mode, there is
1:00
in my opinion a big difference.
1:07
The Metella one has much more detail and
1:09
resolution and the result is not much
1:12
different from what we would get with a
1:14
true optical mid telephoto lens.
1:25
Let's do the same comparison with the
1:27
footage of the village we saw earlier as
1:29
it contains several geometric lines and
1:32
fine detail in the vegetation.
1:42
Please let me know if you notice major
1:44
differences.
1:57
On certain occasions, footage taken in
2:00
metal mode may look too sharp to some
2:02
users.
2:04
In this case, we can simply lower the
2:06
sharpness value in the camera tab of the
2:09
settings.
