DJI Air 3S Chase the View Event & Top Features Revealed

[@camilo8cheryl]

Finally a big brother for my mini 4 pro, my patience paid off, skipped the Neo, skipped the Air3, skipped the action 5 pro…just in time for my island hopping in the pacific this December👍👍

[@redzeppelinuk]

Air 2S has been an absolute joy for me over the last 3 years and a titanic workhorse. The Air 3 launch was quite a let down for a mainly stills shooter (me!) and despite the spin at the time, the 'upgraded' Air 3 sensor was inferior for stills by quite some way in my eyes so I skipped that half hearted offering. I even took a call from a DJI researcher at the time who asked me if I was going to upgrade, but my downer on the Air3 sensor was greeted with "Yes, I'm hearing that a lot". This looks more promising, and if there's a beacon thrown in with the main 1" sensor I might just buckle, but it's gonna take something mighty impressive to wrench the Air 2S from my hands and my heart . Great video 🤘

Man you deserve WAY more subscribers.. Your bloody mint mate. (From Australia)

[@JBlakePhoto]

Thank you very much

[@lonniesfilmmaking333]

I would like the lidar in a mini Cheers much

[@stefanbernhard2710]

Gonna wait on the month reviews on this one. Not sold on the lidar and 50mp camera.

[@MattMakes]

I have had the Neo for 3 weeks now and eagerly anticipate the Air 3s. I was actually excited when I saw the email from DJI this morning. Can't wait to get my meaty paws on this new drone!

[@victorgorospe6576]

Question about the batteries. Can the Air 3 batteries be used with the Air 3S drone?

[@scottyzepplinphotography1188]

Given the Air 2 and AI2S could interchange batteries I don't see why these should not. The improvments are only ever made to the sensors and camera's not the body which to be looking at past iterations tell me that yes you should be able t use the Air 3 batteries with the Air 3S, I think.

[@denaco]

yes

[@_george.tony_]

No 3s battery is bigger bro😅​@@scottyzepplinphotography1188

I own 7 DJI Drones, & I just ordered my 8th, the Mavic 3 Pro. I have the Mini 3 Pro, Mini 4 Pro, AIR 2S, AIR 3, DJI FPV Drone, Avata 2, Neo, all Fly More Combo's. I love my AIR 3 & was hoping the 3s was going to have decent zoom capabilities, for wildlife videography, but it doesn't look like its going to. I ordered tbe Mavic 3 Pro for filming wildlife. I got a decent deal on a new in box sealed Mavic 3 Pro with RC controller for $1760. I ended up buying 2 spare batteries a waterproof hard case & rc protector with sun shade for the controller. $2100 for everything, Ill be in it for $2500 with the 2 year care refresh plan. I'll end up selling my AIR 2S & Mini 3 Pro to help fund the Mavic 4 once its released.

[@ldb89]

Gotta catch ‘em all

[@3banger955i]

Still not enough for me to pull the trigger. I want an adjustable aperture. The night stuff sounds great though, as I do some night hyperlapses. I’m still waiting on the Mavic 4 pro.

[@MikeCorrigan1520]

Me too.

[@BakerOverland]

Thanks for the review. Subbed.

[@PoloHungary]

if release a beacon i instantly buy it ,look the hoverair beacon so good i mean the design joystick screen on it!

[@JasperEllens]

Great video and explanation, but it would be appreciated if you credit the source who provided you with this info, also since you use the pictures in the video and thumbs. Thanks

[@JBlakePhoto]

Sorry about that, was working fast on this one with two sleepy toddlers while I edited. Previous videos I have tried to make sure to credit you, Igor, and others. I'll do better, appreciate all you do.

[@soracing]

I was really hoping for proper vertical video shooting but it's not looking likely, they must want to keep it a mini only feature

[@johnsoncityaerialphotograp7201]

2.7k at 60fps right now for vertical video…

[@soracing]

@@johnsoncityaerialphotograp7201 yeah, I more meant where the actual camera turns sideways, not just cropping into the vertical video

[@ALTN8NRG]

Man…great news! DJI has been playing around with a tracker since the first Mavic Pro. Yuneec Typhoon series had it. It makes sense. It will certainly give the pilots peace of mind. No more bike wrecks looking back to see if your drone is following you. 😂

[@OGSixsnacks]

Does anyone know if the 3s will still do vertical video?

[@JBlakePhoto]

No, nothing we have seen indicates that as a feature. Maybe a crop-in feature.

[@OGSixsnacks]

@@JBlakePhoto That sucks if it doesn't. I was hoping to retire my Air 2S and Mini 3 and only carry one drone to location :(

[@river1376]

Great Job again Joe.

[@tuna1936]

If there no true vertical video and the quality doesn't outreach the mini 4 pro I dont see why you would jump to this and not just wait for the Mavic 4. Im not that desperate for a zoom to ditch the m4p for most hobbyists.

[@CLIFFLIX]

Rumors say that DJI claims 14 stops of dynamic range from both of these two sensors? Hahaha!,..somebody is lying....dirty style. It's extremely hard to get 14 stops of DR on even a large full sensor! Not even Panasonic's GH7 with it's cutting edge MFT sensor that uses dual gain conversion can reach 14 stops. There is no 1 inch sensor that can give 14 stops. That rumor is hilarious! Expect 11 or 11.5 stops. If it could do "that"...it would be spectacular.

[@1sonjohn44]

Why so many cuts in the video when you talk?

[@JBlakePhoto]

I was wrangling two toddlers while editing and recording this video. Also, between each cut is me looking at the camera in a fugue like state of ADHD disassociation while I try to find the dopamine to generate the next word.

[@kentao4]

So do we have to give up hope of variable aperture? I hear some rumblings and I doubted it but would still love that for the air series

[@OliverGeistbeck]

interesting vid. Shame that it is badly cut.

[@JBlakePhoto]

Yeah, a 2am edit after putting two toddlers to bed late is not going to be my best. But we do what we can. Thanks for watching.

[@OliverGeistbeck]

@@JBlakePhoto Thanx for your reply, appreciate it. Do u think the GPS remote will also be sold separately? Best regards

[@Fly_Hover_Me]

If you really knew the truth, you woud be under an NDA. I do think you're pretty close though.

[@shawnstoik]

yup! you are ;)
