Mavic Mini / 3 Pro lens and color profile support
When importing DNG files into Capture One the Mavic Mini 3 files look really off. When trying to correct Light Falloff it is almost impossible to get some decent results as it is still showing some circle cleary visible on the image. Colors are really off as well. JPEG files, in fact, look quite wonderful in default processing.
I have heard that the Mavic 3 Pro files will look the same in Capture One.
Does anyone have the solution for that in Capture One or it just seems that Capture One is not supporting Mavic profiles?
The Photoshop displays the images wonderfully by default.

Mait Jüriado Are you on Mac or Windows? I'll move this post to the appropriate topic so that you can get better insight. I've also followed up with the tech team to get their view on this.

I am on Windows.
Some more update on this. Working with Mavic Mini DNG files in Capture One gives unsatisfying results however I try to get rid of some of the problems - the center of the frame has a slight yellow tone in it and when using Generic lens correction it will make the vignetting more than needed and leaves the circle in the middle (it is also clearly visible on the image on top). There also seems some other issues.

So we don't have color or lens profiles for DJI drones and you'll be seeing generic color and lens profiles.

Lens>Lens Correction>Light Falloff does not give any satisfying results. The yellow spot in the center of the frame is still visible on that article on those sample images. When trying to open those files in Lightroom and Photoshop, none of those issues are there.
Does Capture One plan to add DJI drones to counter those issues in the near future? If not, I am afraid Capture One is not suitable working with DJI DNG files at the moment.

I can underline the comments before... It's a time-intensive workaround I found out, especially if there are many photos to correct. I did some screenshots to show the problem and my (non satisfying) way.
First the jpg from the drone (non corrected)
second the raw/dng non corrected:
i start then with the generic lens correction minus vignetting ab 33
then a radial gradient at the edges, white balance minus green and plus red a bit:
then trying to darken the center just a bit with the inverted radial gradient:
and finally my final editing in shadow, highlight and contrast:
Because I am used to work every day with C1 for my Nikon cameras, I am really excited of the perfect workflow and amazing tools. ONLY the workflow with the drone pics from the DJI Mini 3 Pro (in my case) bothers me a lot and would be really happy if that could be better in the future! I would be happy to find out better ways to edit them - except using other programs ;-)
