DJI Mini 5 Pro vs Mini 4 Pro Photography - 50MP mode
Show More Show Less View Video Transcript
0:00
Both models have a quad bayer sensor
0:02
capable of dividing each pixel by four
0:05
to achieve a higher resolution.
0:08
The photo resolution of the Mini4 Pro is
0:11
432 by 324,
0:14
just above 12 megapixels.
0:16
When splitting the images by four, the
0:18
resolution becomes 48 megapixel, which
0:22
is useful for large prints and deep
0:24
crops. The issue with this mode is that
0:26
the smaller pixels collect less light.
0:30
This 48 megapixel mode was introduced
0:32
with the Air2 and in the first
0:34
iterations it was a work in progress
0:37
with noticeable chromatic noise in the
0:39
shadows.
0:41
This method has consistently been
0:42
improved and with the Mini4 Pro, the
0:44
results are quite good in easy light
0:46
condition,
0:51
but in a dynamic range scenes, the
0:53
photos still have some issues in the
0:55
shadows.
1:00
As mentioned earlier, the photo produced
1:02
by the Mini 5 Pro have a real resolution
1:04
of 12.5 megapixel.
1:07
After splitting them by four, the
1:09
resulting resolution is 50 megapixels.
1:12
Hence, the new name for this mode.
1:16
After spending a good amount of time
1:17
comparing them to the regular photos,
1:20
the 50 megapixel mode often delivers the
1:22
best results.
1:25
However, the difference is hardly
1:27
noticeable.
1:30
The larger file produced by this mode
1:32
require extra computing resources and in
1:35
high dynamic range situation, there is
1:37
occasionally a touch of chromatic noise
1:40
in the shadows.
1:45
However, it is very easy to eliminate
1:48
the noise with Luminar Neo, the program
1:50
I use to edit all my images.
