[@IPGAuto]

Yup. When I heard the rumors of the Air 3, the Mav 3 “Pro” went right back to DJI. That 7X is useless and what I really wanted was a good 24mm and 70mm

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

Definitely a perfect combination of Lens.

[@dronescoVKE]

I got a Mini 3 Pro which I will keep for the always with me factor but am interested in the Air3. Two questions: how does the D Log M compare to the D Cinelike? And of you could get the classic combo with RC for 1,8K or the Air 3 combo with RC2 for 1,5K which one would you prefer?

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

I believe the log D-Cinelike like is better because it records more information. D-Cinelike has 1.07 Billion colors compared to Normal's 16 Million colors. Both are honestly good. Dynamic range for both are good I would just test both out and see which one you honestly like better it’s a personal preference thing. DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo (DJI RC 2) is what I would recommend. I don’t like using my phone as a screen. Always overheats and not as bright as (RC 2) USD $1,549

[@andrewjohnston9115]

I've got a mini 3 pro, I don't see me upgrading to either an Air 3 or Mavic 3 in the next year, the benefits of the sub 250g drone in the UK are considerable with many restrictions on filming not being applicable. However the one instance where I would consider a larger drone would be filming in the mountains where windy conditions is helped by a larger stronger drone in that case I'd consider the Air 3 if the reviews confirm it offers better stability.

Nice comparison, Matt. I'm a drone aficionado dating back to 2013 when DJI first introduced the Phantom 1....... which I still have and fly. Since that time I've accumulated quite a squadron of DJI and a couple of Autel drones. It's my "vice and addiction". Still photographer from my college days, and I need to transition to more film and video production and editing so I'm looking forward to viewing what KZbin video production tutorials you have or will post on this subject matter. I just subscribed to your channel. As far as FPV, yes it is a blast! Just like flying helicopters which I've flown 5 different aircraft in my 30 years of Active and Reserve duty. One aspect of flying a non GPS FPV drone in a hover, you are CONSTANTLY moving ever so slightly, your controller right stick. Same thing in a helo in a hover using the cyclic, which is never held in a stationary position: constant slight movement of the cyclic and holding the helo in that "sweet spot": putting in a cyclic correction and taking it back out, with cyclic, fore aft and lateral movements. In the FPV drone world, your right controller stick is moving in slight control input in all directions holding the drone in that "sweet spot". Depending on what level of a FPV pilot you are, my suggestion in terms of building your skill level is to practice a lot of hovering and slow flight in all directions, fore, aft and laterally.

Which one to Buy Sir We are from Mavic 2 Pro Please reply sir

[@hedleythorne]

I have a Mavic 3 which is mainly used for raw photography rather than videography, and so in that respect I just don't feel Air 3 could compete. Also, the heavier the drone the better for me as I fly up on windy hills! If I was starting out or flying for leisure rather than business, an Air 3 would be top of my list though as it looks amazing, but for now I need that four thirds camera to produce un-manipulated raw files which edit well to a large A1 poster images.

[@w.e.s.]

Well u need a phantom 4 pro or inspire lmfao. Those 3rd cameras r fake af if u dig into it

[@hedleythorne]

@@w.e.s. I have a Phantom 4 and it doesn't come close to the Mavic 3 in terms of sheer photo quality. The only remaining advantage is when taking video of fast moving objects as it has a physical shutter but in both video and photo my Mavic 3 beats my Phantom 4 in every other respect. The Inspire 2 and 3 is better I agree (depending on the camera you use), but they are large and expensive.

Nah, Mavic 3 pro far better camera spec, Air 3 basically mini 3 or 4 main sensor plus other. Have a Mavic 3 (original) and upgrading to the Mavic 3 Pro soon as I want the better quality and not considering this at all. Can see how many would be tempted though, who don't mind a compromose and a step up from the mini 3/4 pro. I like the DJI charging hub can discharge used batteries.

[@CaminoAir]

There are environments in which a Mavic 3 is required though. I live in Ireland in a region which has few hills or forests. Imagine the wind build-up in that kind of area. I've flown my Mavic 3 in near gale force winds without any concerns. Also, sunshine is at a premium here, so the 4/3 sensor does make a big difference, especially given the muddy colours that Ireland's landscapes usually have. I had an Air 2S and it wasn't up to dealing with the 'dour' appearance of Ireland's overcast weather. I traded it in (in part) for a standard Mavic 3, which produced markedly better imagery (beyond even the assumed proportional improvements of the sensor and colour processing).

I think the Air 3 is three points higher on the wind resistance scale.

You can't compare the 3 Pro to the air 3. Sensor size and 3 cameras are awesome. Try flying the air 3 at night and then compare the footage to the mavic 3. For me the air 3 is a heavy mini 3 with one more camera. I waited to see the air 3 come out and then bought the 3 Pro. Air 2s for me is still better than air 3. You really don't need ocusync 4. Everything you film you're usually close to anyway. 15kmh is far enough for anyone. The battery charging thing is a great idea though. I'd rather carry the mini 3 Pro and mavic 3 Pro. Sensor size 100% matters. It's a mini 3 Pro cam on a heavier drone.... You can't beat the mavic 3 Pro unless you spend an insane amount more on the inspire 3

As an Air 2S owner and a professional Cinematographer for Real Estate and the Automobile Industry,, I disagree with a lot that is said here. I would say If you are a professional, then don't consider the Air 3. Why? Because if you are running and gunning while shooting the last thing you want to do is change a lens filter during hectic times of shooting. Honestly I would say changing a filter Period during a shoot is a very annoying aspect to a drone. The apeture settings you get with the Mavic are worth every penny. Another major point is quality of image. The larger sensor is 100% worth the money as when you put the video and photos side by side there is a huge difference. So if you are a professional looking to stay above the bar and above or in line with your competitors then your only choice is the Mavic or Inspire. If you are a hobbiest looking to have fun while taking really good looking images, then the Air 3 is your choice.

[@parodyverse]

Fingers crossed for the Mavic 4 to have two micro 4/3 cameras at the 20mm and 70mm. The aperture control is so useful when you want 1/50 shutter at 24p.

Have you seen the size of the camera module with ONE M4T sensor with adjustable aperture and 2 small sensors? It added over 60 grams, and knocked 3 mins off flight times. 2 M4T sensors would be the size of an apple, or the M4T "true zoom" lens everyone was fantasizing about. Physics is a bitch.

I'd like to have a Litchi like option for the Air 3. If no SDK, possibly some talented programmers can cook something up.

[@hendravideographer]

no apperture control? thats sucks

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

You can use nd filters. But it is unfortunate.

[@hendravideographer]

@@Matthew_Sherwood yes i know. But i dont like my mini 3 pro which is no apperture control too. I still love some control over apperture.

[@mucy2807]

lol 😊

I think I'll buy the RC PRO for my Mavic 3 instead, 4x more TX power. DJI RC is weak sauce.

[@therealjimmy5411]

Drone imagery is about the image and the Air 3 is a downgrade from a 1 inch sensor. Sure it has some Mavic features, none of which affect the quality of the image. And the camera's they are 1.25 stops apart and are fixed apertures. So every time you want to switch lens you will have to fly back adjust your Vari ND filter and fly back out again to get your shot. Super annoying.

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

I can see that. Thanks for the comment.

[@nonchuan]

It's not. The sensor is "just" 0,8" instead of 1" inch, but the lens is so much better and brighter and so is the sensor quality.

[@floatingrabbit3556]

No.

[@monacocross4241]

never air drone kill mavic

[@TotalRecoilUK]

Absolute? Joke.

[@thkotsak1950]

I have the air2s, is it worth selling it and buying the air 3, is it better?

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

Yea I would say it’s a great upgrade if you need the 70mm.

[@erbu360]

Hm…I have a Mavic Air2 and now I am struggling between the Mavic 3 Classic and the Air3🫣

[@Matthew_Sherwood]

I would go with the air 3.
