Drones actually gain battery life when they're flying at a slight speed forward. Hovering with a GPS lock requires lots of little micro-adjustments that require opposing motors to ramp up and down quickly, plus the body of the drone generates a very small amount of lift while in motion.
2199$ seems legit for the basic version of the drone. Especially for the dual camera system and the amazing sensors. Production costs have raised a lot in China.
@@digwillhachi The ProRes license/option on my Inspire 2 with X7 was 500. I'm sure DJI steps on that but ProRes isn't free. I do however think the Cine version is about 1k too expensive. But then again the fly more kit is 3k the Cine adds the controller 1200, SSD, ProRes and ND's. Maybe 5k is where it should be priced.
4/3” in math is being called as “four-thirds inches", and it is the exact same sensor size as “Micro Four Thirds” in the world of photography/videography. They are not two different sizes, so you actually spoke the right thing throughout the video! (4/3” sensor has a 2x crop factor from full frame, while 1” sensor is 2.7x cropped from full frame, so the hardware upgrade should be noticable) Great footages and great review as always Landon! i’m a FTF student for 3+ years and continually supporting everything you guys create!
Same size! Just didn’t realize (at least from my understanding) that MFT is a term from Olympus/Panasonic for a specific mount paired with the 4/3” sensor.
@@landonbtw I didn't know that either, I was wondering why you kept correcting the term by adding the text, but probably many people also don't know this and thinks that MFT AND 4/3" are the same thing
Personally I’d love going ProRes 422 in a drone - But yeah, that price point doesn’t make sense for my business. If I really need aerial shots, I am either grabbing it w an air2s… or hiring a drone guy for a pro shoot, flying an actual cinema camera. Great video btw👏👏✌️🖤
I’ve watched at least 10 different videos on the Mavic 3, and this is by far the best and most honest review, all other reviews from CZcamsrs (Who are the only people that have had access to this drone) only repeat what DJI is advertising. This was a REAL review, and I really like your opinion/analysis on it being worth the upgrade. It’s not, at least not for most people. Thank you Landon!!
Thank you Landon, for being honest about it, and not just trying to sale something that is new and slightly improve. I don't think that the price justify the cost of this drone yes it's micro 4/3 sensor but it's not enough to sale this drone for that price.
You guys have been crushing it with all of these recent CZcams uploads! This was such a great unbiased review, plus it was so great to see Landon back up in the mix like he never left. I don't know how you guys do it, but FTF continues to get better and better by the year. Also for anyone wondering, their online course is 100% worth it. Thanks FTF!
Props to keeping it real. Pricing is pretty insane on this one, and even though I could afford the Cine, there’s no way in hell I’d pay that price for prores.
Love the honesty here! Beautiful footage there too. I just wish some big youtuber would talk about the lack of a CE-rating. That is a HUGE deal if you want to fly within the EU
DJI starting to reach the bell curve of how much people will actually pay for a mavic. I don’t see many people buying a 5k drone but the mavic3 base could still sell
How does this channel not have 1 Billion views? That is crazy to me! I need this drone. I just hired a kid and invested in his Mavic 2 Pro and then this week happened and this drone happened. 😡
New subscriber here. I love how you maximize the use of the new Mavic 3. You are also honest and has really good way of showcasing us your skills. More power and hope to see more ☺️
That price is a bit extreme but besides that I have to say the Prores and m43 sensor makes it extremely attractive. That being said did you compare the prores low light to the 2s's low light? Prores is known for its lower noise. Based on some of the other reviews I have watched the low light prores footage looked amazingly and far better than any consumer drone footage I have seen to date. Prores HQ in a drone is definitely a huge deal. Thanks for the review and honesty about the battery life.
As a certified FAA drone operator, I’m amazed at so many violations of drone usage on CZcams. The fines are massive. I actually dislike the FAA rules which hinder creative use. Ever since I got my license, I rarely use my drone. It’s very unfortunate. Wish more drone videos would talk about the usage issues.
Thanks Landon for your honest review! I wanted to buy the cine version till i saw your video. Because of you i picked up the regular version of the M3 and i really like it. I am enhancing the footage in post and i probably cant see the difference. I am watching the fulltime filmmaker course atm and i LOVE the content. You guys are awsome.
Love dji and the only drones for me . Its great to see that even though dji sent you one of their products to review you've actually said how it is / what you personally think of the Mavic 3 cine. Thanks for that 👏 👏 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Your conclusion was pretty much in line with my thoughts on it. Seems like a marginal step up at an insane price hike, essentially just for pro res. Yes, the less compressed files would be great, but really that's all it's worth. I have no problem grading footage from the Mavic 2 Pro or the Air 2S because as long as you expose within a stop or so, the codecs are just fine. Drone shots just aren't shots that typically need a lot of dynamic latitude in post.
Thanks! Right on spot. Mavic ProRes @5k$ - Why??? Telephoto that is for Exploring - Why? Sticking with my Mavic 2 Pro that covers all the commercial needs in my segment…
Nice work guys and beautiful shots but your really need to address those mismatched frame rates. No point having lovely epic b-roll if it's got that frame jump every half second. Sorry to sound critical but it appears in so many of your videos that I think it's worth mentioning.
With more and more restrictive drone laws in the EU, especially in cities having prores in such a small drone is sometimes an only option if you are shooting for streamers, cinema, TV shows etc. The quality is workable and you can still use it in an open category without having to lockdown half a city...
I have owned the Mavic 3 Cine version for 3 months now and I love it. I am completely ok with the price due to tracking features and that it continues to get updated almost every month now. I think the quality is sensational and I almost want to use the Mavic more than my A7Siii. 1 TB SSD is clutch for people like me who are forgetful about SD cards. The pro controller is another beast on its own. I can post directly onto social media from the controller and I can live stream. I love to be able to my haters know I am on vacation in 5.1K Cine. LMAO The price is expensive but I think it's worth considering the resolution and flight times you are getting out of the device. I think it's a great travel professional monetized creator drone. Like if you make money on social media you can just consider this a business expense. If you just fly for fun get an Air2s for sure! but if you need 360 obstacle avoidance and great quality Mavic 3.
I’m looking to buy this drone. The most important thing is image quality. In this 15 minute video there is 30 seconds of drone footage to help me decide if ProRes image quality is worth it.
Does it come in a nice box? Trying to decide if it's worth selling my house for and will need a place to live after
hahahaha this comment is so underrated lol
Box will cost you extra 😏
It comes with a very nice bag. However, I bought a case for mine as well. I believe the video quality alone justified the purchase for me.
@@timmarkoja4310 it costed me extra 😏😏😏😏
Thanks for an honest review and not just hyping up the product this was refreshing!
+1
Love the honesty in your videos. It’s rare to hear someone even say that certain gear isn’t for them.
This is my first place to go to whenever Dji launches something 👍🏼👍🏼😎😎looks amazing

true, only pro knows this
Not for me but I also have a puny mavic air (1)
Wow. They’ve got to be joking with those prices 🙄 I’ll stick to my Air2s.
You can't be serious if you thought it would be even close to Air 2S prices. This isn't in the same category, not even close.
the base model is ok but double just to shoot prores. They must be having a laugh lol.
@@digwillhachi yup seriously not worth it

So nice to come home to a feed full of videos about the Mavic 3, and FTF+Landon is the first I'll be watching!
That 00:40. Wow. Literally wow. Blown my mind. Awesome shot

The best thing about the whole video: The truth from FTF even if it’s paid AD.
Pretty sure (and by pretty sure I mean I know) paid ads need to be disclosed during a video.
love from Nepal❤️
just watched this after Peter McKinnon's review....his told me barely anything, this on the other hand is a good review.
Exactly what I was looking for after that keynote
Best review so far. You are one of the few honest youtubers.
Every video you make is wow. It is a real pleasure to watch. Keep it up.
wait... these review units can automatically blur faces? thats insane!!
That's what I was thinking: wait, it has face recognition now,
Might be a US Government requirement for chinese drone makers, just my guess
That got to be post production editing by FTF team. Im sure
My thinking was it may have been an initial thought to keep pilots from spying on people with that telephoto zoom 🤷♂️
@@mano40 no.the blur effect is out of drone.wait until the full firmware update in the January 2022
Nice, great video! Been waiting for this for ages!
dude, that introo - what a BANGER! 🔥🔥
INNNN for thisssss
Wait. maxx what are u doing here. Talk about worlds collide #buysourstrips.
Forget the footage from the drone. Let’s talk about the footage from the cameras used to film everything. Looked amazing! Great work Landon BTW.
May I ask what is the camera you use for recording it's damn clear 🙈
This place looks froggin unreal like a big time Hollywood movie - Great Video !!
Thank you. - It’s one of the rather rare unbiased reviews.
This was brilliant
I really appreciate the honest opinion and conclusion! Good Job guys!
The colors look amazing, Truly love it! I wish to get one of these one day, Thank you for the video Parker! and Landon
I love your camera, equipment, drones and co. reviews
Parker is getting better and bestest day goes by love to see such a things that you really drive us to buy.
Props to keeping it real. Pricing is pretty insane on this one, and even though I could afford the Cine, there’s no way in hell I’d pay that price for prores.
I agree.
Appreciate the unbiased unhyped reviews. Keep it up guys!
Wow that opening sequence 🤯
Whoever the editor is, he has FANTASTIC taste in music. I know AlterEgo when I hear it! Love that y'all are using Soundstripe!
that close up of the hasselblad camera was clearly inspired by sam kolder’s oneplus video
Was waiting for someone to say this. He gives no shout out for it...
That intro though 🤯🤤
The show must go on!
Damnnnnnnn you guys killed the intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥
the quality this video is waooooooooooooooooooooooo dan waoo omg danmm waoooo
Great video, as always! And that drone catch shot at the end of the intro was ENTIRELY too sick!
No way! This is insane 😍😍 don't just imagine
I'm a real estate photographer and videographer, so I am HYPED for this. And supposedly it has the wide angle attachment too, which seems awesome!
Having the wide angle attachment will be a game changer for real estate video! And that telephoto lense is going to be unreal!
@@ChristopherHelkey AYYY what's up Chistopher! :D
Love the honesty here! Beautiful footage there too. I just wish some big youtuber would talk about the lack of a CE-rating. That is a HUGE deal if you want to fly within the EU
Indeed, quiet an honest review. I have mavic mini 2 and it's good enough for me.
Intro 🤯🤯🤯
DJI starting to reach the bell curve of how much people will actually pay for a mavic. I don’t see many people buying a 5k drone but the mavic3 base could still sell
That's inspire 2 money right there, totally agree with you mate.
with that 25 mins of flying time for 2,200 is not so worth it.
@@kaziahmed5509 I understand the ProRes license adds a lot to the final price but this is outrageous
@@makatron no it's not. when you try to make a comparable kit, you are quickly over 7-8k..
@@izoyt and that's a true cinema drone, this is a toy compared to that
Great ranger jeep! Also liked video about drone flying from dji company!
Appreciate the honesty. The air2s is a better deal for most
How does this channel not have 1 Billion views? That is crazy to me! I need this drone. I just hired a kid and invested in his Mavic 2 Pro and then this week happened and this drone happened. 😡

Disappointed they didn’t omit that small sensor zoom & just do a larger sensor than 4/3 with changeable lenses…
Dude, this is a well-editted video. Enjoyed watching it till the end.
The camera spec are insane. The best drone this year no doubt.
Thanks for being honest about most people not needing to spend $5k on this thing.
that intro was fire..worth the 300 takes ha...good review thanks
Great review, and update to the camera, and most importantly Big respect for staying honest with your opinion in the end!
Just a huge thank you for the honest review!
This is a review and not reading manufacturers claims of a sheet.🙏🏻
Intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Which lavavier mic are you using. Your sound quality is top notch.
In regards to the camera quality, which one is better Mavic 3 Cine or the Evolve 2?
Thanks! Right on spot. Mavic ProRes @5k$ - Why??? Telephoto that is for Exploring - Why? Sticking with my Mavic 2 Pro that covers all the commercial needs in my segment…

Smart controller is a must, ProRes is a must (if you shoot professionally), and the 1TB onboard SSD is phenomenal. Worth the $5k.

Thanks! Great review
Landon has seemed so familiar somehow, I figured it out today, Howard Wolowitz from Big Bang Theory!
thanks for the review! the way you presented the recordings and the flight time was useful 🤙

$5k drone that only allows jpeg image? What a joke
Huge help man thank you 🙏
