    I would have liked to exchanged my Mavic 3 for the 3 Pro
    But I live in Germany, so EU.
    I have the 3 drone certificates that you need for over 900 grams.
    But the distance you have to keep to uninvolved people is simply bad to hold.
    30 m at least distance or 5m with slow mode.
    Then comes the 1: 1 rule.
    50m high meaning 50m distance.
    100m high meaning100m distance.
    So I stayed with my Mavic 3.
    under 900 grams. I can do almost everything.
    EU is so. Terrible

    My issue with DJI is their lack of clarity on even short term product line changes. 8 months to complete the original M3 firmware (Nov 21 to June 22). Then the C1 classification firmware changes 6 months ago (in Europe). Only to discontinue the M3 with no prior notice, after only 23 days notice that the M3 Pro was to be launched. That is not creating confidence in when to purchase what is an expensive drone.

    Firmware refinement and fixes are in order, but happily, we START with the 10 rounds of fixes since November 2021 Mavic 3 release. So. That pain is in the past, at least. SkyHighFilms kept saying "this is the one they should have released first" - I disagree, since all (most) of the growing pain is in the past at least.
    We are all having fun with the 3x, brilliant tight focus, backgrounds whizzing past. But your critiques are spot on, Jake. Let's see if DJI is listening. If they can offer sharpening control on Mini 3, they certainly can here.

    Good report and as you said I experienced it too. Hopefully DJI will soon come up with the option for three equivalent color profiles, so DLOG-M for the 7x camera. I think it's a pity that the drone is C2 because you have to keep more distance here in the EU, but the use of the 3x camera causes virtually no problems and the drone is easy to use despite C2. But the original Mavic remains because of the C1 if it is really necessary.

      In the US I believe anything over .55 lbs or 250g is considered class 2, which carries considerably more restrictions, so my air 3 and air 2 are both class 2. One thing I don’t like about the 3pro, is the active track doesn’t pick up the subject after losing it behind an obstruction, air 3 is MUCH better with that and air 3 has occusynch 4.0 and ADPAS 5.0. And air 3 is longer flight time.

    I agree with your points on sharpness and noise reduction which are too aggressive for my taste. And while you can soften sharpness a bit using gaussian blur, you won't get fine details washed out by DJI's noise reduction. I am flabbergasted by the fact that this is something I had on my 5 years old Phantom 4 Pro V2, and even entry level Mavic Mini has this feature as well, but it's not on Mavic 3 Pro series - despite so many people, including Philip Bloom, requesting it for Mavic 3, for years.

    Jake, the fact that the Pro has just 8 GB of SSD and the Pro Cine has 1 TByte of SSD. How does that impact the whole video recording and video saving. Is the video down loading from the drone to the RC. And is there a limited SSD in the RC as well? Is that one of the reasons why there is also an upgradable path to the RC Pro?
    So, now I'm wondering how would the SSD size difference impact the whole workflow when shooting for hours, as while kayaking down a river. That's kind of a busy recording session not conducive to wanting to have to worry about video storage and safe keeping.

    Here's a question...
    Do you think this is the last and greatest version of the Mavic 3 before the Mavic 4 series. If so, it makes sense to buy this one to use with your RC Pro. As I assume a Mavic 4 would use 04 transmission and render my RC Pro useless. Thoughts?

    • @JakeSloan
      @JakeSloan  ปีที่แล้ว

      I think this is it till the mavic 4 (or whatever the next generation of this drone will be). I do think there will be some great firmware updates coming for this one down the line though

    Thanks for the video! 🤙 I'm glad but also not about the traits which you've mentioned that's been transferred to the Mav3 Pro from the Mav3. I've been wanting to find a genuine excuse to purchase the Pro, so far it's only that 70mm lures me in!
    On a separate topic which I can't find answers for online. On the Mav3, how do you overcome the 7x glow effect on the whites?

    If you don't have it, can you get the 15.5mm equivalent Wide Angle Lens, and provide your thoughts? I have it (because 4 is one better than 3? Lol) and IT works in Hyperlapse and Active Track. I am experimenting with it, but a struggling to get the most from it. A pro perspective would be good (see what I did there?) Of course you have to land it to use it, but 3 out of 4 aint bad.

    @paulmorris4759 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review! First I've heard of that gimbal problem. I'm curious about your thoughts about the non-removable 1TB SSD. I understand why a large drive with a fast write speed is required for the ProRes codec, but why didn't they just go with a removable CFExpress card? How badly is your workflow impeded on set when you have to download footage? Is it problematic enough to make you want to use lower bitrate codecs and the micro SD card?

    • @JakeSloan
      @JakeSloan  ปีที่แล้ว

      for me I now shoot pretty much only in prores HQ or LT and have been for the past year so I dont find it a big deal. I wish they were able to make it removable but I also understand that the hardware to do that would have added significant enough weight to affect flight time.

    Newbie update: I have decided to purchase the Air 3 Fly More combo instead of the Mavic 3 Pro.
    A few reasons:
    1 - It's my first drone. So, a cheaper version to learn the trade. Also, with the 3x optical 70 mm camera and additional digital zoom, as well as 4K video capture, it will be good enough for kayaking and other fun stuff.
    2 - Rumors of a future Mavic 4 drone in develoment. So, if that drone comes out before any US ban, and if it has the right worthwhile feature, like 8K video, then I may upgrade to that.
