The DJI Mavic 3<\/a> is a powerful imaging platform offering cutting edge technologies that are revolutionary for a compact, prosumer drone. It comes equipped with a class-leading 4\/3 Hasselblad CMOS sensor capable of capturing 20MP RAW photos with 12.8 stops of dynamic range. It has a 24mm equivalent primary lens with a variable aperture of f\/2.8 to f\/11.<\/p>\n

The DJI Mavic 3 also includes a tele-camera featuring a 1\/2 inch CMOS sensor and a 162mm telephoto zoom lens. The tele-camera enables 28x of hybrid zoom is perfect for creating beautifully compressed panoramic landscape photos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In this guide, we\u2019ll discuss two exciting creative opportunities offered by the dual-camera system on the DJI Mavic 3. We\u2019ll look at how to set up the primary Hasselblad camera for manually capturing panoramic HDR photos. We will also cover how to set up the tele-camera to create uniquely compressed panoramic landscape images.<\/p>\n

What Are Panoramic Photos & Why Should You Learn To Shoot Them?<\/h2>\n

Executing panoramic photos can enable drone photographers to create images that simply aren\u2019t possible with another method.\u00a0Panoramic photos are created by capturing a series of overlapping images, which are subsequently stitched together in post. This creates a final photo with a significantly wider field-of-view than the original image.<\/p>\n

Typical wide-angle drone photos are captured with 24mm lenses. These lenses are usually have a deep depth-of-field and little to no foreground compression. In contrast, by shooting panoramic landscape images with long telephoto zoom lenses, the unique combination of foreground compression and a wide-angle field of view can be achieved.<\/p>\n

How to Set Up the Hasselblad Camera for HDR Panoramas<\/h2>\n

The DJI Mavic 3 cameras can be controlled by using the DJI Fly app<\/a>, which is available for iOS and Android mobile devices. It is also available on the new DJI RC Pro remote controller<\/a>. Although the Mavic 3 will eventually support the automated panoramic photo modes within the DJI Fly app, those modes are not activated in the DJI Fly app as of now. Fortunately, it’s relatively simple to set up the DJI Mavic 3 for capturing HDR panoramic photos manually.<\/p>\n

There are a few simple settings that you\u2019ll want to adjust before capturing the images, which include:<\/p>\n
