Does DJI's Mini 4 Pro offer enough new features to tempt Mini 3 Pro owners to upgrade? For others is this the best sub 250g drone you can buy? My review covers this with a strong focus on the image quality as usual for filmmaking.
If you found this video helpful and want to buy me a coffee I would be very grateful! gopb.co/bmc

The first review of yours I watched was the Sony A7s.... close to a decade ago. I'm always floored that your reviews are not only so well thought through and meticulously compiled, but also how they evoke emotion and inspiration seemingly without trying. You are a master at your craft and a gift to this community. Thank you.

I have complimented you many times before and quite rightly you are so very often complimented by others but I feel the need to say it again, your Drone reviews are simply stunning. Packed with useful information but all just so lovingly bundled up with your fantastic film making style and melodic voice. I just love to watch your videos. So once again, thank you Mr Bloom.

@caveman.syndrome 28 дней назад

I just want to say thank you for explaining how you got rid of the drone's propellor noise and adding in background sounds. Also love the comparison shots between all the different drones right at the start. I'm not even 4 minutes into the video and this is by far the best video I've seen on the Mini 4 Pro

@annekedebruyn7797 10 месяцев назад

I do love how the image quality finally got to the point where it doesn't look like an action cam anymore from a few years back. Even on the more 'budget' friendly drones from DJI.

@denaco 10 месяцев назад

TOTALLY!

@philipbloom 10 месяцев назад

The key is not to over process in camera. Especially the sharpness and noise reduction. The Mavic 2 Pro had so little processing that it’s still one of the best drones they’ve made and looks more organic than the mavic 3. You can even get a GoPro to look pretty great with their flat profile, low sharpness, optics correction and ND to get that shutter speed. away from action camera nastiness! That’s why I am excited to use DJI’s Action 4 as it’s got that control and D-Log M.

@jorgenudvang3507 10 месяцев назад

Excellent review as usual, and more or less the only one that goes in detail when it comes to photography and video details beyond the spec sheet. The distortion with the ultra wide-angle lens is a bit disappointing, but I will probably only use that for indoor vertical shots where the ceiling height isn't enough to get the "full picture" with the standard lens. Apart from that, this seems to be the "bee's knees" of drones for my needs, at least for the time being. Again, thank you for a great video!

Cats are always attributed with a great ability to perceive their surroundings and great sensitivity. Certainly, Philip's beautiful relationship with cats made him further refine these remarkable qualities in his work. As usual, Philip does not provide us with a review of equipment. It's always a lesson in reason and sensitivity in using these tools to tell good stories with beautiful images. It's an honor for us filmmakers to live in the same time as you, Philip.

thank you so much for this. And thanks for the info on sharpening as i was one of those that left it on 0 thinking it looked fine up until this summer, but now see the error of my ways...it's more about adding a bit of fine/mid detail in post, like you say. I did get the mini 4 and sold the 3 but concerned about that 120m height limit next year coming to the UK. throws a spanner in the mix for sure.

Realy great review. I think the Mini 3 Pro is a great drone and I certainly won't trade it for the Mini 4 Pro - because it's not a game changer and limiting it to 120 meters is sick.
