Kind of what I’m thinking @GadgetGuy. And the flight time has never been an issue in practice!

I blame Brexit for most things: a great display of national self-immolation. And there is a non-zero chance that the chief architect of this clusterf**k could be Prime Minister. God help us.

I remember when the M4P came out, I looked at the Specs and decided to stay with the M3P. So I’ll probably still do that. If the M5P is now regarded as over 250g, I might even consider getting a “proper” Mavic! I have a Mavic 2 Pro and I had decided that I wouldn’t replace that as the M5P had...

I’ve seen comments that the newest batches of M5P are definitely sub 250g and/or changes in the UK regs next year might help? Is there any truth in this? To be honest I’m struggling to understand/keep up!!

…….or do we have a problem? Apologies if this is repetition, but most comments I have seen are US based. I was all set to order one, and then I heard about the 249g + tolerance issue so I have put the brakes on my purchase. Which is really sad: I have the Mini 3 Pro and I have been waiting...

Thanks, from one Chris to another!

Any thoughts as to which is best for still photography?

Lightroom Classic: I use it all the time for panoramas

Thanks for this @mike93220: I will do, and much appreciated. I am tied up tomorrow but I’ll email you towards the end of the week. Does it make a difference that my drone is less than 250g, and the MP is over 250g? How fortuitous that you joined the forum on the same day I needed advice! How...

Thank you so much @GFields: the difficulty is - I think, could be wrong…. - that National Parks and certain Municipal Areas require separate permits/notifications for drone flying (at least according to the ENARES - I think that is how it is spelt - map of drone flying restrictions)

Good Morning all, I am going on a walking holiday in Tenerife with my son in March next year (2025); and he is insisting that I have all the right permits if I am to take my drone with me (quite right too, I say through gritted teeth....)! The drone is a sub-250g DJI Mini 3 Pro. I am licensed...

Good morning from the UK! This is really helpful @SethB. Much appreciated

I can only agree about the Mini 3 Pro. I also have a Mavic 2 Pro; and when a Mini 5 Pro comes along (the Mini 4 Pro didn’t seem worth upgrading to) I’ll probably sell the Mavic 2 Pro. I’m not sure its that much better than the Mini 3 Pro/[5 Pro] and certainly the sub-250g minis are more...

I’m interested in this, as I do a lot of Panoramas. Do you know of any problems with the MacOS version? Thanks 🙏
