Whats up with this bright spot?

Aside from the fact that you tube destroys the resolution what is the reason for the bright spot in the center of the frame? It even slides to the left as I make the turn. I have seen this on my Mavic as well. The sun was to the cameras back.

Not much you can do about it. The sun is right behind the camera and at a certain angle.

So it's an effect from flying with sun directly behind me? Never mind. Just saw the wiki link.

Yes. Your equipment is fine. It will always be in the same spot that a shadow would be in.

Not DJI specific or even drone specific. This kind of "halo" always appears in any footage where the sun is directly behind the camera. I've seen this kind of anomaly in helicopter footage taken with an ARRI. It's an artifact of physics. The only thing you can do is PREVENT this anomaly by not having the sun directly behind your bird.
