14:00 I actually think you nailed it when you said if dji added the aperture adjustment, you wouldn't have to buy ANY OTHER DRONE. Something you know they thought of and said, "Let's not compete with ourselves TOO much and leave that feature out so we still sell our other drones. We'll just tell people it's about lighting or weight or something like that. " 😎👌

11:20 Gene this was already available on the Mavic Pro en maybe even the Phantom drones. The audio gets recorded on your phone via its microphone.

One solution for audio while flying is to turn on cache to phone and make sure if there is an option for recording the audio from the phone that it is turned on as well. Then you can use the audio from the clip recorded to your phone and attach it to the better video shot onto the memory card in the drone.

Not in the least bit excited for the 2S but way more excited to consider a DJI Pocket 3 with a 1 inch sensor since DJI tends to pair them together and leap frog them. In the order of Mavic Air/OSMO Pocket, Air 2/Pocket2. So lets hope for 2S/Pocket 3 to continue the tradition of sharing the same sensor. And with that Moaz screen competition, lets see if DJI will use that accessory port to include a flippy screen and a 1 inch sensor!!!!
