This is a close one! Which would you choose? Get the very best DJI CHEAT SHEETS, Luts and Presets here - dmprovisuals.com
I'm leaning towards the Mavic 3 Classic. I have a DJI Mini 2, DJI FPV (with a GoPro 11 Mini) and honestly wind performance is the most important thing to me. The features are very close between the Air 3 and Mavic but wind is most important to me. I love to travel to mountains and by the ocean/sea. So many times, I've not been able to fly due to wind. I think the Mavic 3 will open up so many more opportunities to fly in windy conditions that the Air 3 won't.
I would buy air 2s because of the price and 1inch sensor)
As a creator, not a fleet manager, public safety or construction buyer the Air 3 is an easy choice. Its a consideration of getting a Mid-Sized, efficient "All around" full featured drone or a "Flagship Jr." For someone such as yourself, if forced to only use ONE drone for all your needs, which one are YOU going to choose. That's easy. But not everyone is YOU or has YOUR needs. That's okay. DJI not only has a hierarchy and a drone for every tier (and Sub-tier in Mini drones) - they created the tiers.
@@rhdrones1599 your likely correct, but consider: per DJI Specs Air 3 is rated the exact same wind resistance as Mavic 3 series at 12 m/s - and while traditional thinking states that a heavier, more powerful aircraft is best in wind (in drones that's less than a decade of data) this may prove the exception. Too early to say but the 10 m/s ascend & Descend speeds being faster than Inspire and Mavic 3 series may have an influence
@@PavelSACR for what purpose do you want the 1 inch, non-Hasseblad compared to a stacked, dual native ISO front lit sensor that is better in low light and has better image quality? Not to mention a Telephoto lens on a second equally matched sensor? Noise management, sharpness, lack of chromatic aberration and a lens that's an order of magnitude better. Size IS significant, all factors being equal, but they are not equal in this scenario. The newer sensor is superior in just about every (video) side by side with the only exception being SOME photo IQ. (Original Dobo, Quickass Tutorials have some eye opening side by side comparisons..
Agree that Air 2S is a great value. Grabbed one myself as they have been 20% off for months. But those flight times are painful, lol!
Great review. I got the 3 Classic few months ago and I absolutely love it, don't use my Mini 3 Pro anymore, even for hiking/travel. Saw the Air 3 and that zoom and 70mm lense would be very comfortable, BUT, being able to adjust the f-stop, and having the better quality of the image is very important to me, so I'm happy that I got the 3 Classic.
Agreed, I'm tempted by the 70mm as well but unfortunately, the better image quality suits me better along with the adjustable aperture.
Sir can u guide me i have air 2s and now i am going for upgrade should i go for mavic 3 classic
Air2s is still a great drone I know a lot of people use. It all comes down to for will you use it for and do you have the need for it? If you have the budget, I'd personally go for the Mavic 3 Pro, because of that wide angle and the 70mm cameras. But if you'd upgrade to Mavic 3 Classic, you denfitely won't be disappointed
@@nishatchotu
@@MichalOlender
Thanks for your advice
Hey Michal! Do you have any experience in printing drone stills? Deciding between the Air 3 and Mavic 3 classic for specifically printing shots, any advice would be great!
Finally!! Wow the price difference is really huge.. I really suspect the Air 3 will be best for most people. Especially when their content will be viewed on small devices so it is perfect for CZcamsrs. I picked up a used Mavic 3 Classic just before you dropped this video. The main reason was that I think its much more convenient to be able to adjust my aperture mid flight instead of changing the frame rate or landing to swap out ND filters.. I guess you should add the price of an ND Filter kit to the purchase of an Air 3.. Still will be worth it though
But changing aperture is never like adding ND filtres 😉
I go for Mavic 3 classic period
So glad that you made this comparison video. It's a must! 🎉 👏
Darren excellent video. Question: I have the mini pro 3, is it worth upgrading to the Air 3. Your opinion. Thx
What are the likely upgrade paths now that DJI have released OcuSync 4.0? I was ready to tip in and buy the Mavic 3 Pro with RC Pro controller but feel like I might be buying old tech. How far off will a Mavic Pro and RC Pro controller be with OcuSync 4.0? Surely it's got to be on the cards for sooner rather than later.
Hi thanks for entertaining and informative videos! Which filter pack ND/cpl do you recommend for Air 3? I want the best.. Thanks!
Thanks for the great comparison. It is difficult to tip the scales on this one, but for me, the portability, the O4, and the RC 2 won me over in all the pre-release hype. I flew the Air 3 for the first time today and it is a marvel after flying and learning with the Mini 2 and the Mini 3 Pro. Both the Air 3 and Mavic Classic are great drones as you have so well illustrated. Cheers from Wisconsin, U.S.A. Darren.
Yasss been waiting for this comparison! Excited to watch
thank you !
Could you use the air 3
Hi mountain the same as DJI classic ? I’d like to take professional photos. Which one better
This is got to be the best review I have ever seen. Easy to understand, useful points and just all around great. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, very very helpful!!!!
Thanks for the video. I have a mini 3 pro for travel and I’m searching for a better drone for the few occasions I’ll need one. I don’t want the mavic 3 pro as I find it way to bulky. I hesitate between air 3 and mavic 3 classic. Would it be possible to have a link to download raw footage of both drones from the same location ? This will give me a better educated knowledge.
What a great comparison! Thank you for taking the time to do this side by side. It's where I am, perhaps the Mavic 3 in my near future.
It’s a pleasure
Darren, what's your studio lighting setup? This video looks just perfect and mind-blowing.
Kudos to you for the good work. 👍🏼
A fan.😀
Thank you for the comparaison, I’m looking forward to get the M3 Classic, do you think we will se a M3 S or M4 in the near future?
Great video very informative! I have the air 3 arriving tomorrow. Pretty pumped about it!
Nice one !
great review, but can you tell me about night video recording, which one is better, low noise ?
Is the avoidance system really the same? I am missing the "on top" sensors on Air3 - the Mavic 3 has 2 of them on the top - really usefull when you are climibing in cluttered surrounding.
My Air 3 Fly More is on its way, should be here on 14th August. While the delivery approaches I’m getting more and more confused. I mainly shot aerials and less videos, but I’m interested in 70mm for the parallax effect, moreover the Air 3 comes with a better RC, I was pretty disappointed with the feeling of the first RC with the Mini 3 Pro. What would you do? Will you return the A3 in order to swap it with M3C? I’m afraid about dropping the second focal length, but on the other hand I’ll improve by a lot video and photo quality… please help me picking one, leaving money aside. I feel that buying M3C will be like buying “old tech” for OS3+ and Old RC.
Thank you from Madrid and Dominican Republic. Visit here. Cheers.Thanks for quality
Great video! I am in the process of upgrading my Air2s and needed some information on which one I should purchase. You made my decision easier to pull the trigger on getting the Air 3. Thank you!
you say the air 3 has obstacle avoidance on all sides but on every image I don't see a sensor on the top where the Mavic 3 has 2 upwards facing cameras. So does the air 3 have obstacle avoidance upwards or not?
Excellent presentation, mine arrives today via Amazon, but "big but", need to a get a minimum 100w power supply which should charge a battery* in about 1 hour, so I purchased an Anker 737 from Amazon rated at 120w as neither the DJI recommended 65w & 100w power supplies are available from the DJI shop or anywhere else apart from fleabay?
* Not found any information on how long it will take to charge all three batteries when installed in the hub and of interest when charged in the drone DJI says the power is limited to 65w and therefore expect an 80 minute charge time.
Solid Review. Hasselblad & Ability To Control Your F-Stop.The Only Choice For Serious Photographers/Film makers/Visual Artists.
These are both great drones, you couldn't go wrong with either one. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
Does the classic 3 have the feature to auto create a video? Im sure i saw another review that said the air 3 can do this
Çok güzel bir inceleme olmuş, teşekkürler. 👏🏻
Great video, certainly answered a question I was pondering on to accompany my mini 3 pro. But can I just buy the classic drone and use with my current RC control I use for my M3P
This is exactly what I did and they work together well! 1 controller needed
What is the range difference and signal strength of the Mini 3 Pro with RC controller vs. Mavic 3 Classic with RC controller vs. Air3 with the new RC 2 controller?
Türkiye’den selamlar 🙋🏻♂️sizce hangisi djı air3 mü yoksa djı mavic 3 Classic veya diğer modeller
When you crop in from 5k for vertical what is your ending resolution?
Air3 ya mavic 3 classic dono me se konsa acha hai sir
Hello mate. Firstly, brilliant to see a quality British vid! Thank you. I'm looking to upgrade from my MA2 so will revisit this vid which will hopefully help with the algorithms. I've recently switched away from a smartphone so that may be a factor in which option I go for.
Great review Darren like someone else who has asked could do with a review air 3 and Mavic pro 3 most interested in the tele lens
Great review as always but I have erred on the side of the Classic and this review has not changed my mind. The main plus for me is the variable aperture and the sensor size. The ability to withstand the wind resistance is also worthy of note, so its the Classic that I will be going with
Variable aperture sure is a brilliant feature
Thank you for comparison review. What about comparison between Air 3 and Mavic 2 Pro? Video and image quality. Could be interesting for sertain auditory.
My last drone was air 2s, i am photographer and i need choice next drone. For aerial photography do you like air3 or mavic 3 classic. thanks
Good review👍 I have the Classic and the Air3 sounds so tempting bc of the zoom and size…but the camera quality/colors of the Classic are just too good to give up.
This is good video of comparison in between Air 3 and Mavic Classic !
Thanks.
what with noise? is AIR3 more silent or more less audible (different frequency)?
i sold my air 2s and mini2 and got the air 3 with rc 2 but i kept my rc pro since it have same antenna system as rc 2 and i believe in future updates it will be compatible with air 3
Great video ! So basically the better video quality is the classic ?
The wind resistance on with the same ?
Good comparison video Darren
Can the dji Mavic 3 Propellers work on the dji air 3?
Excellent unbiased review! Very informative and thanks for your opinions based on your experience with both drones.
Dunque vale la pena acquistare Air3 o orientarsi sul Classic?
Thank you for this excellent informative video. I'm going to stick with my Air 2 S for the foreseeable future, but would like to upgrade my controller. Is this new controller compatible with the Air 2 S? It would seem that it has a better range than the previous one, which I heard isn't the best because of only two internal antennas.
The new rc 2 is great, signal is brilliant but not compatible with any older drone
@@DMProductions That's too bad. Hopefully that will change. That's how they get you to. buy new stuff 🤪
Thx for this good comparison.
Just charging up my new air3. Coming from a mini 2 it’s a massive upgrade👍👍
Nice one ! That’s one huge upgrade !
I had the Air2 and was very pleased. I ended up buying the Air3 RC2 Flymore bundle. Saved a little cash over the M3 Classic and will do what I want it too.
how you finding it mate? I've been on the MA2 since its release and looking for an upgrade now
@@NicholasPaulFranks I def think it’s the right upgrade from the Air2. Battery life alone is amazing and firm me the waypoints are what I was always wanting.
cheers @@matthewlee8917
when is the estimated release of the mavic 4 series?
I would definitely get the air 3, ya dig
Thanks for the video. Would you be willing to compare the AIR 3 and the Mavic 3 PRO? Photos and videos comparisions of both main and 3x would be much appreciated. Cheers.
aside from money and signal the pro is better 😌
The Classic is more than good enough for this review @DMProductions has done. The only difference between the Classic and Mavic 3 Pro is the 3 cameras giving you a closeup of 7x's zoom. That is about it. This is a good review. This is my huge point in difference. The biggest thing I want from the new Air 3 release is that new DJI RC 2 for my new Mavic 3 Classic! That range is a huge upsell.
Mavic 3 Classic all the way! I love the DJI Air Series, but they all have a fixed aperture and the smaller sensor going from the Air 2s to the Air 3 isn't a plus. The DJI Mavic 3 also has an aperture from 2.8 to 11 which in direct sunlight using 11 will make a huge difference and in other sorts of video and picture affects your looking for.
Well done! Great comparison. I think the Air 3 is big update BUT it has the much smaller sensor of the Mini Pro. Air 2 has the 1/2" and Air 2s 1" inch sensor. I changed from Air 2 to Air 2s based on the much better quality of video and especially on the photo quality. The Air 2 48 Mbit photo feature was really not good enough. But now I'm really impressed by the Mavic Classic quality. This is a game changer and thus it was the right decision for me to buy it and sell the Air2s. At the top the flight time and wind performance is great, it's always needed for my usage. Cheers DrDuu
Thanks. That’s was great review.
Great video. Thanks for doing the work to made this video.
Appreciate it ! Comparisons do take a lot longer to film !
Is it possible to reduce the sharpness on Air 3? It's very iphone style..
This was literally the video I wanted to see. The Air 3 sounds amazing but based off what you are saying about the wind 11:24 I think I'm going to have to go with the Mavic 3 Classic. There are so many times (high mountains 10,000+ ft, and by the ocean/sea) where I can't fly due to wind (I have a Mini drone) and I want something much stronger in the wind.
Well both of these drones are going to be infinitely times better at winds compare to minis ( personal experience )
@@allgaming4045 Mavic 3 Classic all the way! I love the DJI Air Series, but they all have a fixed aperture and the smaller sensor going from the Air 2s to the Air 3 isn't a plus.

I was hoping you would have touched more on the new technology of the Air 3 sensor. It's not just another Mini 3 Pro camera. But great comparison and love your channel.
I have a DJI Mini 3 Pro, and once the new smart DJI RC 2 becomes backwards compatible with OcuSync 3.0, I'll purchase it first because it will be a great step towards OcuSync 4.0 and the DJI AIR 3, which is on my wishlist. Thank for the comparision video.
Can’t believe I’ve spent over £1300 and I can’t charge the Air 3 up. Come with a type c cable only. Plugged into my DJI charger from mini 2 and after 4 hours it’s still only on 2 bars. Not happy
I hope they can make the air 3 backwards compatible with the occusync 3 devices.
Thanks for that interesting comparison! I wonder what that comparison would be like bewteen the Air 3 and the (original) Mavic 3 (with tele-lens)?
So the mavic 3 has a f4.4 lens and majority of it is digital only. The air has a optical f2.8 so should be better
That is a great video sir, very useful!
Best regards!
I don't understand why the Mavic 3 pro didn't come with Ocusync 4 and be backwards compatible with Ocusync 3+ as well.
For me Mavic 3 Classic is definitely a winner :)
Great review. Thank you!
Thank you ☺️
You’re absolutely awesome bro! Thanks so much for your great reviews and breakdown’s! Your the Man!!!

You rock!
Thanks
The air 3 sounds good. Thank you!
GREAT VIDEO !!!
still unsure which one to get, but i need better images quality so i think i'll get the mavic 3 classic. Thx for the videos btw!
Great video. very tough decision! I love all the features on the Air3 but the bigger sensor and the Aperture on the Mavic3 is a huge!
@DMProductions Thanks for the comparison, Darren. Great review as usual 👍🏾
No problem 👍
When you compare the wind resistance on both, what would be TOO MUCH wind for the AIR 3? Also, will you compare the video coming out of these two without too much edititng?
I had the air 3 in 35/40mph winds at the top of a cliff and it was a beast
@@DMProductions Thanks for the reply! That helps a great deal!!! Thank you for your awesome vids!!!
Good Afternoon Darren, I have the Air 2S and considering upgrading to the Air 3 mainly because I can take advantage of Waypoints. I was just looking around at where to but the Air 3. I searched Argos and was surprised to find the original Mavic 3 Flymore Combo on clearance for £1398. Standard Controller. I already own the Smart Controller that works with my Air 2S or works with the Mavic 3. My question is with all your experience Air 3 at £1379 only £19 difference. Which is the one to buy in your honest opinion. I have seen other CZcams Creators who say the Mavic 3 is now discontinued ? Kind Regards Nigel G
The original mavic 3 has been discontinued, still a great drone but the air 3 is a good deal and has a lot of benefits. Tough one but I’d pick the air over the original mavic 3
Mavic 3 Classic all the way! You just cannot beat a hasselblad camera. Plus... it has dedicated upward facing sensors 👍
I have just one question about zoom. So, if i understand you correctly, AIR 3 have fixed only 1x or 3x zoom and there is no possibility to have for example 1.4x zoom and Mavic 3 Classic have this possibility, but only digitally? Am I correct? Thanks for answer.
Both can do digital zoom. Digital zoom looks better on mavic 3 because of higher resolution.
ειμαι αναμεσα στην αγορα mavic 3 classic και air3 ποιο να επιλεξω
Cool vid again. Must admit still a fan of mini 3 pro for where I can fly - at present 😳
Gonna hold out for the Air3 classic they’ll release in about 6months.
ciao quale consiglieresti dei due?
I just got the Air 3 I love it
Hello D we need to know if the CE range of the new Baller 2 Rc is much better than the range of the original baller controller
thank you I appreciate that , I'll do a update soon on how I film my videos! I use two godox tube lights , a godox UL60 as its silent and then some £10 ring light lol
Which one is better for real estate photography and landscape photography as well?
Mavic 3
I have a question. For mapping, like photogrammetry, which would be better?
neither, the Mavic 3 Enterprise(includes mechanical shutter and SDK for 3rd party apps like drone deploy, Pix4D, etc.)
I was excited for the M3 Classic but mine has the horizontal tilt issue like the Phantom 4's had. I've heard of other pilots having the same issue and sending theirs in. DJI ended up sending them another unit and that one does the same thing which is what I'm afraid of. I've got the DJI RC and decided to keep it. I can't see DJI not allowing the DJI RC to become compatible with the Air3.
That’s a gamble. I don’t see dji adding support for the air 3 on the RC controller, because it’s a whole different protocol that requires presumable different hardware (O4 vs O3)
It's essentially a mini 3 pro with a telephoto lens. That's the comparison you should be making. Are the incremental benefits over the mini 3 pro worth it?
It’s far from that buddy as you’ll see on my mini 3 pro comparison
I’m a photographer and that what I would use the drone for , if I could choose I would take the bigger one but it’s little to epcnwisve and I want to get the size down so I will go for air 3.
Anybody knows a link for DJI N2- remote controller with a iPad mini 5th generation, looking for 11.8 to 1 foot. I have the Air 3.
The Air3 camera looks great pictures have great colour depth & drone has fantastic specs I just need to find the money & it's tight at the moment.
thank you for your comparision. i love my M3C even its not so handy like a mini2 or mini3. even my air2 was better to handle. but the quality is insane. Since the DJI RC is not compatible with the Air3, buying it is out of the question anyway. I am more than satisfied with the photo and video quality PLUS your LUTs which I use for my M3C and Mini2. FOR ME no need to buy a new drone for the next years. 👍
Mavic 3 Classic all the way! I love the DJI Air Series, but they all have a fixed aperture and the smaller sensor going from the Air 2s to the Air 3 isn't a plus. The DJI Mavic 3 also has an aperture from 2.8 to 11 which in direct sunlight using 11 will make a huge difference and in other sorts of video and picture affects your looking for.
I had commented in your last video, the introduction of the Air 3, that it didn't appeal to me due to the smaller sensor. Your more in depth comparison in this presentation hasn't changed my mind.
I thought more about it after I walked away and was comparing it, in my mind, to what I understand about the Mavic 3 Classic, the model I prefer. I realized something, and you nailed it in this comparison of the two models ... it's difficult to find any significant difference between them.
So my takeaway is that DJI has brought themselves to a crossroads. There is now a convergence between these two models and I can't imagine anything being added or changed significantly, to set them apart from each other.
My guess is there will be a completely newly named model introduced next year that incorporates the divergence of the technology that we just saw introduced in the Air 3, namely the OcuSync 4, the new smart battery tech of transferring remaining power to a single battery (love that), new controller, and hopefully a full frame sensor, with 24mm and 70mm Hasselblad optics. I'd buy something like that in a heartbeat.
I'm holding out for the new kid on the block, or the Mavic 3 Classic, if the new one hasn't yet been born when I'm ready to expand my capabilities.
Full frame 24 + 70mm would indeed be awesome ! We can all wish for that day
Mavic 3 Classic is a far better drone! DJI Air series have a fixed aperture of 1.7 I believe while the Mavic 3 Classic has 2.8 to 11. The big thing I want from this new DJI Air 3 release isn't the drone, it is the new DJI RC 2 controller! Due to the difference in OcuSync 3 to 4 I don't expect it to get 11miles like it can with the Air 3, but maybe a good 9 plus miles like the DJI RC Pro without paying the $1,200 bucks for the Pro price has me upsold to use it with my Mavic 3 Classic. I will probably take my DJI RC and use it for my Air 2s.
You helped me make a big decision. I had ordered the mini 4 pro then the Mavic classic. Now I am getting the Air 3 thank you for your video
Thank you you’ll love it
Question about the F2.8 . You mentioned it's good in low light. How's that different from the f2.8 on the mini 2.? Is that because of the different sensor size?
yes sensor size will play a huge roll
@@DMProductions ok cool thanks for the response I appreciate it
I chose the standard controller so I can use the FCC mode in the UK
Same here
The mavericks are here 😉
@@DMProductions next you’ll be telling me Darren I need some sort of license or insurance to fly it 😂😂
I got the mavic 3 classic couple weeks ago, would you recommend to return it and get the Air 3 instead?
Based on what you want to do with your drone, if you want to record videos in very high quality and you are a professional I would keep the drone. Otherwise I would go with the air 3 since it’s cheaper and equipped with good technology too.
I was asking myself the same, ended up saving some bucks and getting A3, I work as freelance photographer, and still I don't feel the need to 4/3 Cmos. Moreover for what I do, M3C was overkill. We have to think that we are not playing to "the bigger the better" game, bragging with friends or on socials...
Love your videos and reviews! I currently have a Mavic Pro that I bought back in 2018. I want to capture my rides on my motorcycle, so the need for 360 degree obstacle avoidance is what put me back in the market for a drone and the Air 3 is perfectly targeted for me. I was seriously considering the Mavic 3 Classic, but by the time I add in the Fly More Bundle, I'm now at $2,400 plus tax. That's more than I would want to spend on a hobby. The Air 3 checks off nearly all of the same boxes with the exception of the camera. But judging by the videos I've seen from reviewers who have tested it and used it; the camera upgrade isn't worth the massive difference in price.
