Cinematic (C) controller mode helps (limits the speed of movement). If you do get the DJI Mini 3 or Mini 3 Pro, I recommend you consider spending a bit more for the remote controller with the built in screen (DJI RC). The combo I got at Costco came with the screen-less controller (RC-N1, you have to mount/attach your smart phone to it), but I wish now that I'd spent a few minutes researching first.
