Can the DJI Mini 4K shot sideways videos?
Starting to try out videoing and wanted to pan by a castle
I’ve done it by facing the castle and then left sticking, but the Mini tilts, so the video looks naff
Is there someway to shoot a video to the side, while I move the drone forwards?
Or is this only available in the high end Mini’s ?
It should shoot video sideways, yes.
Check your settings and make sure you’ve not got FPV style selected, the gimble should then compensate for the sideways movement, as long as it’s not too windy
Just fly sideways?
I wanted to say this, but wondered if I was missing something 
You could always try quick shots for smoothness then add in with your video/clips if when editing etc, thought id mention it just incase you wasn’t sure,
Your drone has this option as mentioned in the video below by @ianinlondon
I think it’s a case of being very gentle & smooth on the sticks, try sticking it into tripod/cinematic mode and practise, practice, practice. I keep trying and thought I,m getting better still some noticeable jerkiness. I’m using a mini 2se which is even more basic.
When i tired that, it tilts and the video sways 
Your in FPV mode. That’s all it is. Take it off and it won’t tilt. I recently played with FPV mode on my 3 and hate it.
