      @@macklenk8888 Not dark, it's because the Mavic Pro shoots in Log, so you get more dynamic range and need to compensate bringing up the ev, or else it looks underexposed.

    @35mm_g_master70 Před 4 lety +1266

    my conclusion after watching several reviews i bought mavic mini.... heres what i found now but i cant say about spark coz i havent test it...
    1. the 2.7k 30fps is very nice to have and useful in post for cropping
    2 the mini is lacking dynamic range sometimes i dont get the highlight i expected.
    3. the 5km range really doesnt matter coz even if u fly more than 1 km u wont able to see... hope u would not want to lose the drone risking to go 5km....also dont go too high altitude strong wind is the worst enemy of the mini. but within 1km range and 200 m
    altitude hope u will find best angle
    4. some are explaining absence of obs sensor at the front.. but dont be... use the camera view as your obstacle sensor 😁 because more sensor on the drone definitely reduces flight time .. you dont need much sensor if u know how to fly and carefully examine sorrounding before takeoff
    4. battery life is great ...in real time i can fly 20-25 mins depending on how hard the wind is
    5. the quick shot mode is good but only circle mode has the best tracking mode of the locked object. i hope this will be improved in further updates.
    6. in video mode the iso and shutter speed cannot be manually adjust...but the ev is quite good for me and always lock your exposure setting so that u can easily edit in post.
    7. lastly i cant believe the smoothness of the footage came from this small light drone.... i always wonder the strong wind will be causing trouble but this mini stays strong and fights that wind and still able to take a smooth buttery videos but too much strong wind drains battery and also always scares me that sometimes it almost look like itd gonna lose against wind.... but i am still amazed that it stays strong and how hard it fights against the wind.... still i recommend to be careful against strong wind warning
    THANKS HOPE THIS WILL BE HELPFUL FOR SOME PEOPLE

    Love the footage shown here would advise buying the mini as a starter drone or as a cheaper option if you are worried about wreaking your drone on some trip. Overall if you are not sure just buy it because unless 400 is what you are using to pay your rent and feed yourself this is a great price for a much better drone.

The video on it isn't just 'good enough,' it's... I think it's very good."
    And that, friends, is the whole 'hobbyist drone vs. professional drone' quality argument in a nutshell. If you're not making your living with it, the DJI Mini will serve your needs well, with enough money left over to buy a Super 73 (though not the model Casey is riding in the video).

    I've owned several sub-249 gram drones and I'm happy DJI seems to have put a lot of effort into the Camera. I might buy it, as I video about 3 % and take Photos the other 97. However, I doubt they've beat the physics of small drones just being more suceptable to wind - specially at altitude. Videoing in anything but a straight line will probably be as inadvisable as with the Spark. That said, I think professionals might also give this a thought. You don't need an Inspire 2 on a calm, sunny day & a distance of 50 x 50 ft and this is so much less intrusive.

Spend the extra $100 and get the Fly More Combo. Be careful if you have an Android phone that's not on the list. Just upgraded my older Samsung to an iPhone X. For DJI I hear iOs is the only way to go and now I can see why. Too bad the phone might cost you more than the Mini itself.
