Shutter priority not selectable (M2P)

I started trialling MPP yesterday after having previously used Pix4D and DroneDeploy. By now, I never let an app decide which camera settings to use as more often than not this leads to blurry or out of focus images.

My preferred setting is Shutter Priority which also in MPP appears to be the setting of choice te reduce the ground smear.

Problem was that in the camera settings of MPP I could not select Shutter Priority. The option was there. But when I selected it, the panel with the shutter speeds remained grayed out, i.e. I could only set ISO and/or aperture. I had to go in and out of the camera settings several times until finally selecting 'S' worked.

The App is running on an iPad Mini 6 with a Mavic 2 Pro.

We try to duplicate the functionality in the DJI app as best we can using the SDK. 

You should give the "Inherit" setting a try. You can set it up exactly has you want it in whatever app you want and then Map Pilot Pro will not attempt to make any settings changes.

Inherited Settings (5.0.7 and later, Base and up only) - If the "Inherit Camera Settings" switch is enabled in the Map Pilot Pro settings the app will not touch any settings on the camera other than those that are absolutely required to take images. "
