![]() ![]() ![]() The Air 2S has obstacle avoidance capabilities on the top, bottom, front, and back of the aircraft.ĭJI has equipped the Mavic 3 with six fish-eye vision sensors and two wide-angle sensors that give the drone 360º omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, even when flying in Normal mode. The Mavic 2 series featured obstacle detection sensors on the sides of the drone but oftentimes they weren't reliable and only worked when the drone was operating in Tripod mode. Overall, the design is more aerodynamic.ĭJI has created a more robust obstacle avoidance system for the Mavic 3. The 5000mAh batteries, that are inserted into the back of the aircraft, as opposed to the top, are longer and slimmer. The propellers are longer and have orange tips. It's either 8 or 12 grams lighter, for the standard and Cine, respectively, due to the fact that its legs are thinner and the body is slimmer.

Hybrid: 1-4X digital zoom on main camera, up to 28X digital on telephotoĢX optical, 4X digital (Mavic 2 Zoom, sold separately) We've priced these as Fly More Combos since only the standard version is offered as a basic model (without two additional batteries and accessories) and the Cine is only offered as a Combo. When it comes to camera sensor size, video resolution, zooming capabilities, and flight time, the Mavic 3 and Cine excel compared to previous Mavic models. Does the overall offering justify the steep price hike? Furthermore, which model – standard or Cine – gives most people the best value? Most importantly, is it an all-in-one solution fit for most professional use cases? Let's take a look. The top-of-the-line Mavic 3 Cine, which costs $4999 for the 'Premium Combo' (the standard model comes in at $2999 for the Fly More combo), offers up 1TB of internal storage and Apple's ProRes 422 HQ (High Quality): a codec that applies the least amount of compression to video files for the highest-quality imagery possible.Īs impressive as these new features are, they come at a significantly higher cost compared to their predecessors. It even beats out the Autel EVO II, that boasts up to 40 minutes flight time. This surpasses the Mavic 2 series, and the Air 2S, by 15 minutes. The Mavic 3 and Cine can fly up to 46 minutes.

At the bottom is a camera, co-produced with Hasselblad, with a 20MP Four Thirds sensor, with a 12MP 1/2" CMOS telephoto camera placed above. Weighing 7 grams less than the preceding models, they're the first prosumer and compact, foldable drones to feature a dual-camera setup. Three years after the Mavic 2 series was introduced, DJI returns with the highly-anticipated Mavic 3 and Mavic 3 Cine. Furthermore, if you wanted to hone in on subjects, you needed a whole different drone like the Mavic 2 Zoom. Perhaps this was to prevent overheating, given its small housing, but what resulted was line skipping and pixel binning that compromised the overall quality of the footage. The Mavic 2 Pro's camera didn't use the full sensor when shooting 4K video clips. It was an impressive feat, but there were some shortcomings. Notably, at the time of its release, the Mavic 2 Pro was the smallest drone to feature a camera with a 20MP 1"-type CMOS sensor and the first to include Hasselblad's Natural Color Solution (HNCS) technology. Two years later, they followed up with the Mavic 2 series. In September, 2016, DJI introduced the Mavic Pro – a compact, foldable drone with a professional-grade camera that also detected obstacles. ![]()
