I take the Mavic Air 2 out at night and go through the video settings to see how far I can push the ISO and to find what I consider to be the best settings for night video on the Mavic Air 2
Obviously with the Mavic Air 2 you are a bit limited in terms of low light capabilities due to the small sensor size on the camera but does that mean you can't get decent low light footage with the drone? In this video I'll find out and show you my findings with real examples so you can see for yourselves
Does the small sensor just mean the Mavic Air 2 is confined to daytime shooting or have DJI pulled it out the bag and managed to pack the camera with enough tech to enable night time shooting? 👍

Great! Glad you found it useful and great having you as part of the community 👍
Hi,i have mavic air 2 unable to take off at night, what settings do i need to take off at night? thank you!
Nice video. Very useful
Glad you found it useful my friend 👍
Like a young Bradley Walsh. Cool vid, I like your futuristic scooter thing.
I'll take Bradley Walsh I think 👍 It's a fun bit of kit, I got it for 'work'm it's a tonne of fun!
Nice video Neil👍
Stay safe buddy 🙏
Thanks my friend, glad you enjoyed it 👍
Very nice at night thank you.👍👍
good video. keep it up :D
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it my friend 👍🏻
I get dark horizontal bands running up the screen - possibly coming from the POI tracking software settings.?
For example going round a town's Xmas tree:
It's not the greatest in low light and these anomalies will happen
Nice video, watched it when before doing my 1st night flight with my Mavic 2 Pro in my hometown (to film the X-mas lighting). I shot with 800 ISO, 30 fps and 1/60. if some (not) of the strret lights are flickering - which adjustments would you make? Thanks, mate
Change to 1/50 if you can? Shutter speeds of 60 are at the same frequency as a lot of street lighting so that should fix that or shoot at a higher shutter speed 100 or something?
@@neilcollinsrecording Tnx, will try and report back :)
@@martinvondendriesch let me know how you get on?
I’m curious about using my Air 2S for astrophotography and some landscape night shots with stars in the background . Is it capable?
I don’t use mine at night very often so probably not the best person to ask in that respect. May be better to ask someone who has more knowledge of astrophotography 👍🏻
Hi
thank you for your video but say although I also have a mavic air 2, my iso goes no further than 1600, whereas on yours we have 3200 and 6400 !!!
so how do we get 3200 and 6400?
Serge from Canada
I could be wrong but I think if you are shooting in Cine D the maximum ISO is 1600, if you shoot in Neutral then you can go right up to 6400, let me know if this is the case?
@@neilcollinsrecording You have absolutely raison
I liked the music you used, where can I find the music used in the video
The music is licensed from Soundstripe www.soundstripe.com/?fpr=neilcollinsrecording 10% off if you use this link 👍
Nice iso 3200. Night me using 4k 24fps 1600.. i dont know which is better for night..
I use 1600, I found this to be best but others may disagree? 👍
Did you use any ND8 or ND 16 filter ?
No ND filters
What settings would you put if you record a video at an open rooftop at night?
Bro this drone is the worst drone I have ever had to record at night
It may not be the drone but the settings. I've seen some amazing night footage from this drone from other photographers. I'm not saying there aren't better drones for low light / night photography & video but I do think you can get good results with the MA2
@@neilcollinsrecording I owned maybe 6 drones before this.. this one is the worst in night video recording.. I tried everything to record in low light!..also cuz I used it too much for more than a year.. the remote now charging fully then be dead in 5 minutes of using!!..I sent it back to dji and they said they will replace remote battery for 75$ so I ignored that and bought new one from ebay for 80$.. so at night it's veryyy bad u can see nothing and u will have bettery issue in far future.. I think mavi pro 2 is the best but i am waiting for the 3 pro it should be crazy good
Looks like my home town of Worthing
You'd be right! 👍
neilcollinsrecording I was flying on the beach yesterday . Only flown it twice so just getting the hang of it
@@mattsephton7306 Weathers not great atm but its a good place to practice away from everyone
what about 6400?
The Image was already falling apart at 3200, I wouldn't go up to 6400 unless you are planning on doing a lot of noise reduction in post. Personally I wouldn't push the ISO past 1600 on the MA2
I'd use ISO 6400, 60fps or 30
Not too much noise?
@@neilcollinsrecording
Well that's up to you.. I like it a little brighter and you can always ad contrast in post... Try it out.
@@neilcollinsrecording
Also just for flying around switch it to camera and auto your screen will light up nice just for flying lol
Video starts at 3:40
The meat of the video does indeed. Its all subjective my friend and I appreciate some people want to get straight to the meat but I do need to build some context and introduce the channel to people who haven't been here before. It's a tricky balance to strike and I'm always learning! Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment though
@@neilcollinsrecording I agree. Nevertheless, as a new Mavic Air 2 owner, the video was extremely helpful. Thanks
@@PM-hw5sp Great! Glad you found the video useful. My Drone Playlist may have some more useful content for you so be sure to check that out
Let me know what settings you use at night with the Mavic Air 2? COMMENT BELOW
@@jcflying8763 for me the image Kind of falls apart 3200 ISO upwards for video. Too much noise etc but appreciate everyone has there own methods that may well solve these issues 👍🏻
@@jcflying8763 man, that sucks! Hate it when things like that happen, I had an SD card break a couple of months back and it’s not a huge feeling!
I fed up from magic air 2 night video? Is where any solution?
@@evenway5264 Solution to?
@@neilcollinsrecording to get high quality vidoe without noise
Skip to 3:35 to see the setting
👍 In the process of adding chapters
Just goes to show, A.I aint that clever...yet!
Give it 20 years and we will getting controlled by drones
@@neilcollinsrecording you might be, but not me. I can think for myself thanks 😉
@@k1ortia It was tongue in cheek, me too
@@neilcollinsrecording I know. No offense intended
@@k1ortia None taken my friend, appreciate you watching my videos
Those are literally the worst settings you chose 🤦🏽
They are literally not but thanks for your input. No problem with you sharing your settings so people can compare and contrast?
@@neilcollinsrecording dont hold your breath for that reply..
it is how it is... you do it all wrong, and your the worst and no I will not tell how I do it better...take these clowns with a pinch of salt.
Many nightshots are postedit elevated.
The Mavic Air2 even here in 2Q 2022 I reckon its the best bang for the buck on the market as an entry full fledge DJI drone... if you can get it at DJIs pricereducted deals, with that 450 of value Flymore combo that seems incl. at like 790 USD
Mini2 is 600 with its flymore and Air2S is 1300.. quite a stretch from 790.
It got allt he bells and whistle.. great in subzero degree.. 34min flightimes.. extremely fast 70kmh, good in windy condition, and its got an ideal size if you ain't pursuing sub250g
There are some things from Air2 I really had hoped would be ported to Air2S, like its HDR feature.. that is some of the best in handling highs & lows without choking either, and would also love to see the 240fps1080p slow-mo.
But it ain't gonna happen.. the SoC is likely not able to compute it, with the bigger sensor, as the HDR was also 30fps locked on the Air2 with its smaller sensor.
Thx for the vid.. informative for users on what does what.
but whoever told you about the 800 ISO, was likely not thinking about Air2 or Air2S for that matter and out the box footage..
you need to go a tad higher.
3200 or even 6400 which could be useful on the Air2.. not least if you willing to run the footage thrue a denoiser..and then you can mix it up with lensfilters in regards to the scene.

@@JAKOB1977 Does the aIR2S not have HDR?
@@neilcollinsrecording No.. it sadly dont... the HDR feature is the Air2 so-called ace in the hole, and it looks weirdly good in balancing the dynamic range between high and lows..
you can see it if you fx record the sun and clouds etc., its ablelity to not blow it out.
example (notice the sun)

and here with fx an Air2S and a Mavic3 (notice the sun)

Im curious to see a test on a direct sunlight with the Mini3 and the Air2 in its HDR mode, as Mini3 should have some backed in HDR.
You could save us 12 minutes and tell us what we know - can not make any night footage with the dji air 2 !😅😂
Not usable. Waste of time.
Well as I have taken some night footage with the DJI AIr 2 whatever. It's not the best at night footage admittedly but I dodn't claim it was
