@@manuelmonge527 I deleted the DJI Fly app on my IOS and reinstalled it. Then I put a new fullt charge battery in the drone. I was then prompted to update my battery. After the battery update was complete I clicked video, and it showed me a 4k zoom and a 4k wide option. After I selected 4k zoom I went back to just the regular screen showing what you were going to be filming. Right to the left of the record button was the 1x option and when I clicked on it it showed 2x and viola. It zoomed in the 2x . Hope this help
This is huge stuff! great how to again!!!! I'm using my MA2 for videoing soccer practices, scrimmages, and games. I just tried it out this morning and now I can stay away from the players and use the zoom capabilities and the touch screen gimbal control to one follow the play and also to keep the noise from the drone at a distance. The 4:1 is incredible!!!! I was just starting to think about buying a Mavic Zoom but now no need!
Wow fantastic news thanks for the heads up, the Mavic Air 2 is the gift that keeps on giving props to DJI and congrats on the 200k Aldryn, the only way is up for your channel, by far the best on TH-cam thank you 👏👏👏
Now that there is a digital zoom feature on the Air 2, it would be cool if they would also build into the Fly App Quickshots, a digital Dolly Zoom version of their "Dolly Zoom" feature that is on the Mavic 2 Zoom! No reason why this couldn't be enabled using Digital Zoom. It's possible to do it using post editing, but I don't have those skills...
@@pawekrotowski8970 No it's not impossible, I've seen it done. You keep the subject of the shot the same size in frame using digital zoom while moving the perspective by changing the position of the camera, ie moving the drone away. The result is almost the same as with physical zoom, but there's some loss of resolution.
@@samgab Hi Sam, yes you can do the digital version you're referring to but it is way different and no where near as effective as the real dolly zoom!!
Yes, Hyperlapse 4K WITH 2 second intervals instead of 6 secs with 8K. I did verify the prevent lateral flying feature (right stick left/right) you can still turn by using yaw (left stick left/right).
Love that DJI is adding so many features and improving existing ones to the Mavic Air 2 with these firmware updates! Thanks for going over these, watching this as I download the new update!
Just found your channel and the information has been invaluable in my decision to buy the Mavic Air 2. Thank you. I hope the DJI Smart Controller gets some love for the Mavic Air 2.
Very cool. This officially makes the Air 2 the best drone you can buy right now! Just gotta wait to get my refresh replacement on Tuesday Cannot wait look forward to ask these new features! Love your videos btw keep up great work 👍
My firmware update says it is V01.00.0340 178.28MB. Slightly different from your V01.00.0310. At least that's what is says while it's currently installing.
@@digiworld8681 So you're bent out of shape because I gave Aldryn a compliment for getting MA2 firmware info out to the drone community first? Wow, you need to get a life, bro!
Awesome update breakdown. All I had noticed was the battery icon changed but had no idea I all these other features had also been upgraded! Great content, keep it coming!
Thought I had a problem with my magic air 2, because I had no ability to fly sideways, after watching you video I check out my drone and didn't realize I had side flying turned off. What a relief to find out, thank you. Great video...
That was fast ! Thanks for this review, before I check it by myself (my drone is stored in my RV since I can't fly it in my city). Awesome work by Dji and great review ! Thank you !
Totally awesome and impressive review. Made me want to go and buy this drone today and test the upgrades. Keep up the fantastic work before you know it you’ll be at the million subs.
Thanks for this update. I'm glad I saw this as I had updated my firmware a week or more ago and didn't think there'd be another update. Very helpful guidance in this. Thank you
Thanks....first to show us the firmware update with real examples. Looking forward to see more depth testing about Waypoint function and active track at low altitude.
Thanks for the heads up on the firmware update! FYI, DJI App likes to use phone signal over Wi-Fi, can cause slow firmware updates. Put iPhone in Airplane mode and then turn Wi-Fi on. 100% faster and more reliable download. Thanks again for all you do for us!
Wow, this drone just keeps getting better! I bought mine just a week ago and it feels like my timing was perfect! Loving your channel. I just subscribed, great work!
Left right movement is disable because the drone doesn't have side sensors. It's limiting the movement of the drone lessening the chances of crashing. If you move forward or backward sensors are functional. If you yaw left or right you are pivoting on a point, not likely to crash. But when you move sideways there is that possibility of crashing, no sensors no camera. I believe this feature is more for beginners.
Wow This is another Great Video, all around, examples and all, Thank you for this, very very informative on this new firmware Can’t wait to update my Air 2.
Great video as always Aldryn 🤘 When I first saw the notification, I figured it was an update to the Mavic 2 Zoom, so skipped it, but as I saw the buzz building on forums etc, I came back here because I knew it was the best place for some solid information 👍 Congrats on the 200K - should be way more, but I'm sure it will be soon enough.
YAHOO, Aldryn, Thank you for this excellent video update for the Mavic Air 2. These updates are fantastic, especially the ZOOM function, WOW! Nicely Done, Adryn, this quick tutorial overview is very helpful and much appricated. Take Care and Safe.
FlytPath Yes it is, Aldryn! The only thing missing for me is the ability to livestream directly from the controller/App like you can from the Go4 App. RTMP Custom App.
Have they reinstated the ability to turn off landing detection for safer hand catching yet? Its great they've added yaw controls back in (such a handy feature!) but downward sensor controls would be great too!
glad to see this update coming out! Awesome new features! Just couple weeks ago I decided to get the Mavic Air 2 after having my Mavic Pro for over 3 years now. I love all the new features it comes with! I actually just released a comparison Mavic Air 2 vs Mavic Pro 1 if anyone is interested!
Thanks man! Not sure when I saw this initially I thought was for Mavic 2 Zoom not Air 2....stoked! Really want the smart controller already though!!! Congrats on 200K....I’m excited about almost getting to 1K! 😄
im just amazed with all the feature it have at the current price point. i wish Dji would let us fully customize our sticks mode layout other than im really enjoy flying the mavic air 2
@Chris Grove if you hold the function button and use the gimbal rotation dial you can get smooth zoom in/out from 1x to 4x in 1080p or up to 2x in the other resolutions.
Thanks Aldryn! I was just going to play with the new gimble settings today! Now I have a lot more to play with! I wonder if you can zoom in prior to using "follow me" mode. That would be awesome for the mountain bike footage! I'll give it a go! Cheers!
Just add to your video, I figured out you can control the amount of zoom by touching and holding the zoom icon, this will bring up a dial that will enable you to smoothly zoom in and out.
excellent presentation video of this essential firmware update! Many thanks! Maybe one day we will also have a digital zoom on the Osmo Pocket and the Osmo Action... Wait'n see...
Keep your finger on the 2x on the screen and a slider comes up for smooth zoom

Another cool little tip - you can press and hold the “fn” button while turning the gimbal wheel for a smooth zoom
Saw that.. AWESOMENESS
Excellent!
Brian Puninske but that didn’t work for me today - I hope it will. Great machine anyway
Revised - it works and is way better than screen control. thx

dolly zoom is impossible with digital zoom - dolly zoom is based on changing focal length and distance to the target

@@samgab Hi Sam, yes you can do the digital version you're referring to but it is way different and no where near as effective as the real dolly zoom!!
I did it in Imovie and came out great. It's really easy. Look up a tutorial on you tube.
Theoretically if I record at 1080p and "zoom" at 2X I shouldn't have any image quality loss considering a half inch 4K sensor.
Thanks for the update! That Zoom function is HUGE! No reason to get the 2 Zoom anymore.
Crazy what you get for this price range
@@FlytPath Looking forward to what DJI does with the Mavic 3.
Jeven Dovey gonna be scary
With an actual zoom lense you don’t lose image quality when you zoom so it all depends on what you’re trying to do.
The task library is such a cool way to do day to night hyper lapses or season hyper lapse
Excellent update- I cant believe how great this drone is - mine is coming on Tuesday 👍👍
Lol mine to will be here today
@@supremeautomotive6749 I just got mine I haven't taken it out yet as I just got in from work

akflex me too ! .0340
Lol, true - and not having a MA2 will make it even harder - great job :-)
its not a damn contest relax dude people always wanna divide instead of working together to build smh!!!

I was on the fence with the ma2 and mav zoom went with the ma2 ... I'm so happy with this update
My original Mavic Pro also has digital zoom and it came out in 2016. I’m glad they are still adding functionality to the Air 2.
I love this drone! Definitely getting my money’s worth, with all these new features. Love the new Zoom feature. Wow.
This drone just keeps getting better and better. ZOOM!!!!! Really
Wow just Wow My first real Drone and it just keeps getting better and better

Great to hear!
Thanks for the information Aldryn. As ever the information is informative and useful. Can't wait to get out and try the new updates!
Absolutely Fantastic! Found if you tap and scroll up when you are changing zoom it gives you a scale where you can sent zoom manually.
I'm so glad I ran across this channel!

Glad it was helpful!
Another very useful update, thanks for the inputs. Keep it up,you're doing great!
