    Hey Ted. From Canada and of similar age. Currently own a Mini 3Pro and decided not to add the Mini 4 Pro to my kit. As a Storm Chaser, I am satisfied with the features of my Mini 3 Pro. That being said, if DJI does add a 1" sensor and 5K, that would be a no-brainer for me. The added performance the 5 Pro would deliver in low light conditions, would be the cherry on top of the sundae. Thank you for doing these videos. They have helped me tremendously over the past year as I deal with burnout, a few health issues and just too much on my plate. Still figuring out where I belong so to speak. Cheers!

    A 1" sensor will never be in a drone weighing up to 250 grams) Even AIR 3 was not made with such a sensor. It's simple - the sensor and optics will be very heavy for such a drone, and you will also have to increase the power of the motors and battery - this will add even more weight. So no... The number of pixels can be increased. Taking everything into account, it is unlikely that we will get a mini 5 this year)

    After I crashed my Mini 2 last year, I decided to by the Mini 3 pro to replace it.
    A week after I purchased the Mini 3 pro, I first heard of the Mini 4 pro coming out.
    I was so bummed out when I heard that & almost sold the Mini 3 pro for a loss, just to get the 4.
    I am glad I decided to keep the 3. If the Mini 5 comes out with some of the specs you have mentioned, I may consider purchasing one.
    An Air 3 or the next one in the Air series may also have my interest peaked.
    So many choices, so little time!
    Thank you for all the great drone content, and I am always looking forward to the next video!

    Hey Ted. Friendly neighbor from Jersey here. I like your videos. For some reason when I watch them makes me feel I'm just on the open road stopping at a local dinner getting pancakes before I go to my next sight seen. lol They are very relaxing and informative without fluff. Keep the good work. They inspire me take some trips in Jersey areas for pictures. Sadly, a while ago I sold my Mini 3 because at the time I thought that it was not easy to find a quite spot to fly without someone giving you grief. For some reason drone haters think we actually are into people's business or spying, when (at least me) all I want is to have fun to see and explore like birds do for however long the battery last. So, with that said I will be looking to the Mini 5 pro.😉

    Hello Ted. Today I got an email from dji pushing a mini 4k for around $299. This enlightens me that they can do a 4k under 249 grams. I watched a couple of you tubes with the unboxing etc. Many years back, my first dji drone was a Phantom 3 Pro. I replaced it with a dji mine 3 pro, and really like what it is able to do. I kept my fingers crossed with hope thinking dji would firmware upgrade with video way points. It saddened me that they pulled the rug out from under me and put that feature in the mini 4 pro. Money is tight at the age of 71, but instead of buying the present mini 4 pro...I'm gonna wait it out to see what they roll out. One feature I would like to see in their controller is a built in mic. It's a pain to hook up my Rode wireless Go mic system, but it works.

I actually want a wider angle lens for what I do most these days with the drone, so a higher resolution would be welcomed for cropping! Totally agree about the tracking micro adjustment's makes it unusable for pro work. I find the point of interest way point method works much better, although more set-up time... All the best, Jay

    It's gonna be just a spec boost. They've pretty much plateaud here. Best they could do is maybe give it the 1" sensor they're putting on the Air 3s. But there's a problem with that. What are you gonna wanna sacrifice to get that camera? Probably gonna use more battery power, and now you have to shave more weight off to stay under 250. Battery reduction? Or lose other features and keep the battery?

    I have loved the versatility of the mini 3 but decided not to get the 4 as there was not enough improvement in the camera to warrant spending over a grand on it plus my RC pro would not work with it.Another disappointment was my mini 3 filters do not fit the 4 either which was an unnecessary change.

    Hi Ted! Sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing with the mini 3Pro. Hope you get it sorted soon. If DJI can’t pack a 1 inch sensor into its next mini, you might consider grabbing an Air 2S refurbed unit. It has a relatively small form factor and I personally think that the photos from the Air2S in raw form are better than those from the Air 3! Flight times might not be as good as more recent offerings but the camera is what makes the drone.
    Keep the faith! Better days ahead Ted.

    I waited to buy a Drone since the release of the Phantom and ended up buying the Mini 3 Pro and I reckon the wait was worth it 👍
    obviously I was not in a hurry 😂
    I don’t have the money to buy a Mini 5 Pro but sure would love to have one 😅
    Ps: Downsizing is definitely a good thing- the more stuff you have the more problems you usually have - especially when it comes to travelling or moving around a lot.
    Less is more they say and just have exactly what you need is key 😊

    I've watched the second of your videos in a row...you're great! Superb attitude, not too weirdly hyped, but you have such a childlike enthusiasm...and I mean that in the BEST way! You're a very intelligent dude who is so into it. You're not trying to be cool and consequently, you are. I went from the Magic 2 Pro to the Mini 4 Pro. The little guy kicks the crap outta the bigger guy hands down!!! For me the best part of owning this tiny miracle is how quickly I unpack it and get it up in the air while still following all safety protocols first. I used to sometimes pass up opportunities to fly because I found the longer, more tedious setup of the M2P with the 8"+ monitor, the clumsy folding controller and less-than-stellar video signal transfer (even with the 4Hawks booster antenna) a bit annoying. Still, I was able to get some excellent videos produced with that wonderful setup. However...when I now see a shot while I'm driving I stop, get out my trusty little M4P and I'm off! I just wish the screen was at least 1000 nits, but I've managed quite well here in the desert with the included 700 nits. I've flown well beyond 2 miles away and have NEVER had any image transmissions issues. Also, the M4P's ability to fly in very high winds without the BRING 'ER DOWN! message appearing on my screen is surprising. The images from this little drone are truly amazing to me, at least. If theM5P is that much of an improvement, I'll get it and keep this as a backup, which as a professional videographer is a must. I've been playing with fire by not having a backup the last 9 months. Thanks, Ted!

    • @TedNemeth
      @TedNemeth  Před 18 dny

      hey Mike. You say the camera is a lot better in the mini 4 versus the Mini 3. I did an ACTUAL side-by-side comparison of the footage in different light settings. My testing showed they were exactly the same in day light and in low light. The Mini 4 was a little better at night. But in low light they are exactly the same. I stopped reading marketing specs and only believe what my actual testing shows.
      You say you plug a large screen into the controller of your Mini 4. I LOVE THAT. I used to fly my Mini 2 with a 12” Ipad. Wow I miss that. A firmware update in the RC1 controller deleted that ability.

    Good morning Ted, I really like watching your videos on creativity but, I have learned this little tidbit even using my DSLR cameras, I have yet to have a client ask me if the camera produces 24, 48, or 100-pixel photos. My point is this if I am not making serious money and my client can really tell the difference between 48 or 100-pixel photos, I will not allow myself to desire the next big thing. Technology is forever changing, but I do agree with you that if the upgrades are not that significant then I won't be purchasing it. I do still use my Mini 3 Pro and my Air 3 as well as my Nikon D7200 and my D850. I am still not bored with what I can do with that equipment. That's my take. Keep on producing good content for creatives.

    One correction to your guess on specs, Mini5Pro will have 4K 120fps (and 240fps at lower resolution).
    As far as a darker World, I totally agree. I was a pre-teen in the Sixties, and every decade seems to lose something, except maybe the 80’s - love it and the music!
    Finally, great video, as always. I like how you turned the darkness into light👍

    Ted, this is another great, thought provoking video, even though it's more on the tech side vs the artistic side. Thanks for everything you do! I started out with an Air 2 and after a crash that left one of its legs broken, bought a Mini 3 Pro as a replacement. Now don't get upset at my next statement, because I love my Mini 3 Pro, but after flying it for about a year, I've decided that I will never get a Mini drone again*. The main reason is that it is still, ultimately, effected by the wind way more than even the Air series, but it really isn't all that much more compact than my Air 2. I think my next drone purchase will be the Air 4, assuming it is close to the schedule you suggest, and (fingers and toes crossed) has the 1" sensor. *Caveat: I like to have my drones be mission-centric. The Mini drone is great if I'm travelling or hiking or generally to keep with me at all times, but if I'm planning out a shoot where I know the location and time, I would prefer the beefier drone that would not let windy weather sidetrack my plan. So someday when it breaks, I will replace the Mini 3 Pro with whatever Mini drone is available at the time.

    I think the best upgrade for a *Mini 5* - would be to build a case to increase the excluded weight class to 299 grams.
    Whether it's deemed as a 'hobby class' drone or market sector, the fact is that many people (serious hobbyists) still want and would use more features and better optics.
    Industry has created some reasonably strong , yet lightweight polymers for frames - along with battery design (albeit not at a nanotechnology stage yet) and chemistry, which has enabled them to build some awesome drones to fit the sub-250 gram class.
    What is not negotiable, is the metal in motors, or the glass in quality optics. Pretty hard to shave any more off them. That makes a second, main camera a difficult ask in a sub-250 gram drone.
    At 299 grams... well, let's have another look at those requests!

    I think for AI, which would be great, the drone would need to be connected to the internet. I'm not sure if that, 5k, and a bigger sensor would be possible without taking a hit on flight time. But, as you mentioned, you never know what DJI will come up with!

    the Air 3s gets the 1 inch sensor from what i read and i cant imagine that there will be a mini version with a one inch sensor for the european market. It has something to do with the Law and guidlines here in europe. All new drones have to have a certification to be flown anywhere. The Air models are the only ones you can fly in aeas where people are living like cities and villages etc.. without having to bother you might have to pay a penalty (A Phantom or an Mavic 2 or An Avata 1 your just allowed to fly far away from people since this year). The new certified mavics are very difficult to get up in the air without limitations, even if you have a license and a permission from the government. So, I think just marketing-wise, there will always be this sensor-difference between the Air and the Mini. At least for the european market.

  • @Mrthezanax

    I personally don't care at all about 5k resolution, but I would love the 1 inch sensor. I think it would be the best upgrade. For now i'm keeping my mini 2 and i'll be waiting for the mini 5. If it doesn't have 1 inch sensor, then I'll go for air3 or air3s. Money can buy happiness. 😀😀🤣🤣Thanks a lot for your informative videos!!!

    Nice video! About jitter, see clearly if camera plastic arm is not broken, if it is, glue it with one drop of super glue - I had that problem, maybe yours is different. I own Mini 3 Pro and I think that they will slow iterations because is a niche market and it will be difficult to find new technologies each year. You have great suggestions about future updates, however I want combination of Avata fpv and Mini Pro in one drone.

    Great insights and projection of the mini 5. We may want to expect more than 5k, say at least 6k like Autel has already done and an upcoming competitor in the selfi/mini market is ZeroZero Robotics which I have just ordered their Hover X1 Pro Max that shoots at 8K! far under 249g with 16min flight time and fully encases rotors that the whole unit will fit in your pocket, oh and full obstacle avoidance.
