I had quite good results with Mavic pro drone, but you absolutely need to capture in RAW on the drone (the JPGs are very badly smoothed), and due to some bug somewhere on the RAW management in Windows or RC, you need to convert the raw files to PNG before using them in RC. You can use a command line tool (dcraw) for that.
If you are using directly the raw files in RC, it will be very very bad.

You mean DNG files, right? I did converted them into Tiff without compression. Did some exposure correction and vignetting removal in Lightroom. My problem was the huge amount of weird surface errors everywhere https://www.flickr.com/photos/60898728@ … /lightbox/

I think it was quite enough overlapping , DSLR does perfect surface with even separate asphalt grains there

I wonder what is prefferable exposure settings: higher ISO with super short exposer like 1/25000 for crisper images or otherwise very low ISO with 1/250 shutter speed ? Do you use “tripod” drone mode or any extra tricks? Could it be something with image stabilization?

Have somebody tried smaller drone “Spark” or jpg only makes it absolutely useless?
