      I've been considering this since the last time it's been on sale. I'm just concerned about crashing into something. The 360/up/down sensors have already saved my butt flying the Air 3. ALSO: Costco is backordered as of now, but still taking orders, FYI.

    I’m tempted By this mini 3, since it’s under 250g and france legislation is harsh about that, but also cuz it is cheaper than maveric or air 2s.
    My question is, is this mini 3 relevant for this use ? Or would you recommand another drone ?
    Tx !!

    So confused by the (claimed) photo resolution. If I understand it correctly the 48MP photo is done in the software and the output in that case is only JPG?
    I checked the RAW files you made available, and they're just 9MP in a 16:9 aspect ratio. What is the max DNG resolution and aspect ratio? It's bad that Dji doesn't clearly put this on their site... Thanks!

    The mini 2 se is still worth it so of course the mini 3 is. My next and second ever drone will be the mini 3 in 4 years from now when my fiance and then wife lets me purchase a new one with my allowance. Also with the range test and being able to go uo to 500m no way you only got to 1500m away. I did a range test sitting in my backyard with houses trees and got 3.2kms out and signal was still okay turned around cause battery was sketching me out and that was with the mini 2 se the mini 3 should easily be able to get 4kms in normal mode before signal lose.

    • @MattyDCCollins
      @MattyDCCollins  2 месяца назад

      unfortunately only 1500m in that one test, there is crazy interference at times unfortunately but I'm glad to see that you got 3.2k - now I know it's possible in certain areas

      Yeh, sitting in a old airfield control tower i got 3.8km then i lost my 1st bar just after i crossed high voltage power lines.
      In town from the ground at 110m (alt) i get around the same 1500-2000m, interference plays a big role.

    Hey I am a beginner photographer wanting to buy my first camera. I’m not a content creator and video is not a priority of mine. I simply want to take really good pictures maybe of vehicles, nature etc. Like I said I’m a beginner. Sony or canon if video isn’t a huge factor for me? Also if Sony what would you say between these two for me A7iii vs a67000? Thanks so much Iv been stressed to make the right choice due to budget but still want to take great photos

    • @MattyDCCollins

    I recently purchased a refurbished mini 3 pro from the DJI store for $480. Two big disappointments for me, is it won't fly waypoints like my mavic 3 pro does, and it doesn't have cruse control. It would cost DJI nothing to add these features.

    • @MattyDCCollins

      @@michaeldanforth3059 yes, even though they could easily add these features to the older drone, mini 3 pro, they would rather have you buy a new drone. I had an opportunity to buy a refurbished mini 3 pro for $480. I did not do good due diligence to find it's exact features. Otherwise I probably wouldn't of bought it. The mini 4 pro would of been too expensive for me as a second drone. I already had a mavic 3 pro.

      Same with me. Ordered the mini 3 because the battery died when I wanted the last shot over the sea at my boat (stupid of me). It was sunny and I lost the sight of the drone and return to home was beeping. I could see the battery die more and more. I couldnt see it anyware so it landed in the sea and was gone. Got really angry at myself. Instead of buying a new mini 2 se I ordered the mini 3 but I going to use my old controller.
