    Regarding the adjustable aperture, I've heard from other drone experts that the Mavic 2 Pro footage started looking soft and was hard to focus at anything above f/4 anyway. Is that something you'd agree with? If so, it makes the adjustable aperture even less of a comparison factor!

    This is valuable information coming from a professional who uses the drone(s) as part of his everyday client-assigned activity that needs to be impeccable in quality.

    I have to say I'm very confused about the whole Occusync 3.0 thing. According t the specs on the DJi website, the Air 2s drone has Occusysnc 3.0 (with Occusync 2.0 compatibility) but the controller included with the Air 2s is only Occusync 2.0. So surely, when the Air 2s is communicated with the included controller it is using Occusync 2.0? The fact that the controller is Occusync 2.0 is the reason why you can use the same controller with the Air2s, Air 2 and Mini 2 via the latest DJI Fly update. I think the Occusync 3.0 capability really only comes into play if they eventually release a firmware update which makes the Air 2s compatible with the new goggles that came with he FPV. Either that or a possible new Smart Controller that might have Occusync 3.0 that could come out in the future.

  • @PICKLEBALLBZ
    @PICKLEBALLBZ 3 года назад

    For many upgrading from one cellphone to the next, or from one drone to the next in this case is not worth the minor improvements (a little better battery life, a little better camera, etc.). You fly as a professional so you would likely upgrade each time the latest and greatest comes out. I upgraded from to Mavic Pro to the 2. But I find just like from the iPhone 10 to the 12. You get a better camera, but the IOS and general capabilities are almost the same. So why keeping dropping over 1K each time? Just my opinion as an average owner, but I think DJI needs to start making bigger enhancements/leaps to make the upgrades worth it.

    How many cycles do you typically get out of a battery on the Mavic air two?
    My original Mavic air batteries only seemed to get up to about 45 cycles before they failed. I might not have taken the best care of my batteries either, also leaving them in my car from time to time in between appointments.
    I experienced some failures while in flight. Unfortunately the last failure might have damaged my gimbal as it came down very quickly from 50 feet or so.

    I did the same thing; sold my Mavic 2 Pro for an Air 2s, and a HUGE upgrade that Dobo didn't mention is ADS-B Airsense. It's so much more comforting to have your drone identify manned aircraft around you and to be able to maneuver around it. HUGE upgrade I wish he mentioned.

I quite like it, takes some extra time to put in and take out of the bag, but i just feel like its more packaged for transport with it on.

    Can't get over how much better the Mavic 2 Pro footage looks, the extra stops of dynamic range and hassleblad colour science absolutely melt. DJI missed the target with the Air 2s imo. But to be fair it definitely isn't labelled a pro for a reason, and the price reflects that. Can't wait for the new pro!!

    Fully agree with all your reasons. I also got the A2S and it is a really magic quad, camera-wise. To the point that I'm thinking of postponing getting the Mavic 3 when it becomes available in the next coming months until its Platinum or 3Pro equivalents become available, and also until Apple's M2 chip gets introduced.

    Awesome show. He’s definitely to the point. Honest, not a salesman like the rest.
