@ziv2liv Год назад

That was an awesome comparison. I own both and I was wondering what am I giving away by shooting with the mini. Apparently not much. Although you can see the advantage the Mavic has over the mini when it comes to low light, but as far as sharpness, especially shooting stills at 48MP, I like the mini more. Also its panorama looks better. Edit point: I had to come back and watch the video again. After several months of not using the Mavic 2 Pro, I picked it up again, and realized how big, heavy and cumbersome it is compare to the Mini 3 Pro. I'd say unless you are traveling to a place that is known for high wind, don't even bother. The Mini 3 is the new king.

WOW! Exceptional video. No one should be shocked that the Mavic 2 Pro produces better images. However, I have been pleasantly surprised at the quality coming from the 12MP camera on the Mini 3 Pro. As is the case with most wide apertures, the latter tends to produce images that are soft in the corners. Great job.

@DigitalTechReviewsTips 2 года назад

Thanks Dale! I also was surprised at how well the M3P did, though the camera of the Mavic 2 Pro is still clearly better in most situations.

@IronHideWildfire Год назад

Great video! Thank you very much. What's the name of the recording device for your voice audio while the drone is flying around? And what would you use to record audio of random things (turbo whistle of engine, attached to tree to catch crack as tree goes over after being cut, exhaust of vehicle, whine of hydraulic pump, etc) Thank you so much for your content!!

@DigitalTechReviewsTips Год назад

Thanks, glad you found it helpful! The audio recorder I'm using is the ZOOM F2 - amzn.to/3CbKCKH. It definitely has some limitations, but I love it because it uses 32bit float which means you essentially never have to adjust audio levels or worry about peaking. As for what I'd use to record random things - I usually just use sound effects I find online and add the audio that way in the post, however, if there's a unique sound I don't think I'll be able to find, I will often use my phone (after all they are designed first and foremost to capture audio) or my other audio recorder which is the Tascam DR40. Highly recommend the latter as it's lasted me 10 years.

Nice video fella. Currently got the mavic pro 2 and thinking about selling for the mini 3 (for ease of use, size and less restrictions)

@DigitalTechReviewsTips Год назад

Thanks! If you’re looking for those three things than the M3P definitely checks all those boxes. Certainly does feel a little less premium than the Mavic 2 Pro but feels much more modern.

@markmc2163 Год назад

Thanks for the reviews! One thing I do wish you would have mentioned. The remotes. While the Mavic 2 Pro remote is lightyears better than the Mavic 3 remote, the Mini 3 Pro RC remote is WAY better than both, IMO. It has insanely good range, controls, and visuals without any separate device requirement. That alone has been the biggest reason I sold my Mavic 2 Pro and 90+% of the time I fly my Mini 3 Pro. Oh, and lenses and settings. Which settings were you using in these videos? HDR on the Mini 3, etc? (Perhaps throw these on the description field on your raw videos?) The lack of variable aperture is probably my only complaint with the Mini 3.

yep. a proper comparison. hard to find a proper ones on yt. thanks for that. and btw. to me the conclusion is.. that 4 years old M2p is still insane good quality compared to similarly specs "wise" latest 4years newer drone. this is crazy. how good for its time 2018 actually the good old mavic 2 pro was! (still is) . crazy. Althou m3m pro is so close!, did you try to compare them in 10bit modes?

@sounakbanerjee Год назад

Can you please tell me in detail how you used a mic to record audio onto the Mini 3 pro, and what model. Thanks.

@DigitalTechReviewsTips Год назад

Wasn’t onto the Mini 3 Pro. Used a separate audio recorder lav mic (you can use literally any one or even just record audio with your phone in your shirt pocket) but the key is to clap at the start of your audio and video recording. Then once you’re done filming you try and line up the sound of the clap in the audio with your hands clapping in the drone video and it should be good. Takes a little work but once you get it (provided you just do one long take of video and audio) than you’re all set.

I don't understand why everyone is so obsessed about the Tracking-Feature? Can someone explain? I'm new in the drone space and I'll buy one soon.

@DigitalTechReviewsTips 9 месяцев назад

I can’t tell you personally either man as I’m not the biggest fan of it (and obviously don’t trust it to not crash into stuff as you can tell from the video). That said, I think people like the idea of having a drone being able to film them without them having to do any work and allowing them to let them focus on what they’re doing. I like the POI mode (allows it to orbit an object) but personally don’t use the active track mode much as I’m almost always at the controls and do it manually. Would love to have another person chime in though!

Mavic 2 pro hands down. Aperture adjustment make pics sharp and crisp.

@DigitalTechReviewsTips 5 месяцев назад

Very true that DJI has kept adjustable aperture as a feature only available in its Mavic series of drones but I don’t think I’d ever say it makes them “crisp and sharp”. I guess in the sense that you can stop down the aperture to f/11 but over rarely used anything lower than f/5.6.
