We're collecting photos with our DJI Mini 2 for the purpose of creating ortho-photos and/or 3D-models. We're flying at 100m and overlap typically 80/75% to get a final resolution of approximately 2-3cm/pixel. Multiple GCP;s are spread around the project area.
When importing photos in blocks to C-C, photos are shown as if they where taken horizontal, not vertically as they actually are. It's when looking at the project photo block in the 3D-view we realise all cameras are pointing forward and not downwards. Seems like there is something missing in the photo metadata but they are imported straight from the drone SD-card including position data from the drone GPS, flight control and camera.
Anyone experienced this and know whether it affects the final aerotriangulation or if there is a way to fix this?
I've noticed it's impossible to point out our GCP;s on the photos before running a first A-T without the GCP;S. Then, after that's been run, I may add the survey data and get a suggestion from C-C on what pictures to point the GCP;s out. There are between 2000 and 3000 photos in the project, so not possible to search manually for potential matches between GCP;s and photos showing them.
Sorry for my bad grammar and spelling!

Does it have latest firmware?Try to import in some other software to compare.
Thank you for your swift response! Drone is more or less brand new and updated as far as I can tell.
I'll try to import some similar photos from my private drones and see if they are presented same way.
