Mini 2 low-light performance, RAW, and auto-exposure bracketing – Did you wonder what the DJI Mini 2 low-light performance, RAW, and auto-exposure bracketing (AEB) would be like? So, did I. Monday night, I took the Mini 2 out to see how well this latest DJI drone would do. You can download the videos, RAW, and JPEG files right here.

DJI Mavic Air 2 firmware update adds Mini 2 to remote controller – V02.00.1100 – With a small Firmware Update (V02.00.1100) for the DJI Mavic Air 2, the new Mini 2 has been added. So, now you can select which drone you'd like the controller to connect with before you start flying. This allows you to use one controller for multiple DJI drones in a similar fashion as to what's already possible with the DJI Smart Controller.

DJI Fly app updated for the new Mini 2 drone – Version 1.2.0 – The DJI Fly App received an update with the arrival of the DJI Mini 2 drone yesterday. The new update adds QuickTransfer that allows you to download photos and videos from the DJI Mini 2 directly to your phone at 20 MB/s without the use of the remote controller. Furthermore, there is an Enhanced Photo function added, the ability to trim video clips, and more.
