The reviews I have seen suggest that the Mavic Pro 2 video & stills output is a tad softer than the P4P. Has this been the experience here as well?
See, for example -

It seems, something is rotten in the state of Denmark:
Softness alone could also be a software issue, but higher noise, real lack of detail even after sharpening indicates deeper issues. What I really don't understand are the stills, the two cameras have the same sensor(?), yet the MP2 produces more noise in stills...All the Mavic 2 Pro footage I have seen has the soft, mushy look. To be sure, not everyone will see the difference, but those of us who do serious photography/videography will. Perhaps it is, as has been suggested, a problem with line-skipping etc, or perhaps it requires only a firmware fix. In any case, I have ordered the P4P v2. Better to stick with a known puppy for now.
I also believe this was answered by another thread, where a very knowledgeable individual.Softness alone could also be a software issue, but higher noise, real lack of detail even after sharpening indicates deeper issues.

I got the impression he is professionally involved in cinema.
He explained why he thinks the reveal got postponed.
In short, two ways of processing images.
Clusters of pixels or line by line.
He suspects the processors were overheating by scanning every line.
With a little software tweak, it scans every other line and decreases processor load by half.
Look around, it's still here and very informative.
They might withhold features or skills, true. But I wouldn't be surprised either, that unleashing the full power of the sensor would involve too much power draw or overheating. Sony 1" compacts (rx100vi) are still restricted to 5minutes of 4k recording because of this.His point was, they had to sacrifice quality with a simple software tweak instead of going back to engineering, as they had already announced the release.
I quite sure they're withholding some pretty cool features for later.
Active track, AFAIK all current DJI drones do that, very cool!I want one that locks onto a target and keeps in frame, no matter what I do with the drone.
I know, it's probably already there, I just have to look.
Honestly haven't tried, but the linked video suggests so.I have used active track, but does that lock on while I control the aircraft position.
From all directions controlled by me?
I want my target to stay in frame while I fly over, around, towards, away, up and down.
I want full aircraft control while my gimbal stays focused.
Even if the aircraft must rotate to do so.
Guess I'll go out and practice modes, but I don't think that exists.
