DJI released the new firmware a couple of days ago, with new features and some problems.
The new features that I found out are:
1. Better D-LOG color profile with more dynamic range
2. The ISO now is locked permanately at 500 when you use D-LOG color profile, so you have to use ND filters to expose correctly during daylight.
3. There is a new button in the app next to the Auto Focus that changes the color of the screen to none, even when you use D-LOG, in order to have brighter views in light conditions while the file in SD Card is written with the color profile you have choosen (D-LOG, etc)
4. Continues auto focus! So you dont need to tap to focus everytime!
5. The ART color profile is BACK again, like in the Phantom 4.
6. They changed the names of the other color profiles.
7. They updated the No Fly Zone Database
8. A new feature: Lock Gimbal during capture???
I dont know what is its use... any ideas? Maybe it stops the small moves of the gimbal when you capture pictures, especially during timelapses, but what happens when you capture video? You have to disable it?
Well, here are the problems that have to do with third party apps like Litchi and AutoPilot.
I received emails from both:
LITCHI
Dear Litchi Pilots,
There is currently an issue with the recently released firmwares for Mavic Pro (v01.03.0500), Inspire 2 (v01.0.0240) and Phantom 4 Pro (v01.03.0418) where the drone will fly erratically in some of Litchi’s flight modes. If you already installed one of these firmwares, we highly recommend not using these flight modes until the issue is fixed with a DJI firmware update. The following flight modes are affected: VR with Immersive/Joystick Head Tracking active, Follow, Focus and Track. All other flight modes (including FPV, Waypoint, Orbit and VR with Immersive/Joystick Head Tracking OFF) are unaffected.

AUTOPILOT
Current Issues
There is currently an issue with the latest DJI firmware for the Mavic Pro, Phantom 4 Pro and Inspire 2 which causes erratic flight behavior in Autopilot. We do not recommend* using Autopilot with these aircraft types until a resolution has been found for this issue. If you are using firmware 01.03.0200 or below, you should not see these issues.
* It is still possible to safely use Human Flight Control Modes and Waypoint Mode as long as Lost Connection is set to Continue Mission (LCMC).
We will send out another correspondence when this issue has been resolved.
Thanks for your understanding!
