If it an item is sold by a third party seller but it's fulfilled by Amazon that means it's Amazon's responsibility to correctly deliver the item because they stock the item in their warehouses and they ship the item. This means if a seller review is referencing the delivery of the item, Amazon...

Unfortunately so: https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/drones/one-of-the-best-non-dji-drones-has-just-got-the-axe-this-drone-brand-has-discontinued-nearly-all-of-its-consumer-drones I remember considering a GoPro Karma or the original Mavic...boy would that have been a mistake if I'd gone with...

Your full name is in the letter in case that concerns you. I'm quite a risk averse person and given your minor planned use of the drone if it was me I'd leave it at home. You say you're nervous about it and I know I would be too so it's one less issue to worry about.

Because Autel are a much smaller company with a far smaller range that likely doesn't justify them using resellers and taking a cut, as of last month Autel are exiting the consumer drone market so there's even less reason for them to be using resellers.

I'm lost, nothing in your post refers to anything in my post - did you quote the wrong one? I never bought a drone reseller nor made any comments about genuine resellers. I was talking about DJI scam sites which they are numerous ones where people have put orders in and never received a drone...

There's loads of DJI scam sites as well and I've seen a number of people scammed here and elsewhere unfortunately. The scammers also seem to be taking advantage of the problems in the US since buyers are struggling to get the drones from official sources so are looking elsewhere. It may stand...

It looks like a scam site to me. It's not always 100% certain and I'm not familiar with Autel drones but there's a few red flags that immediately stand out, the first is massive discounts across a wide range of products which is extremely unlikely. Another is the high pressure sales making out...

Which country are you in? Looking at the UK packages the creator combo comes with the 240w charger. DJI list the charging times here: https://support.dji.com/help/content?customId=en-us03400006769&spaceId=34&re=US&lang=en I'm not 100% on this but I think you'd need the charging hub to...

That's certainly not the reason, firstly Samsung are able to offer stabilisation on their telephoto lenses and secondly DJI have superior stabilisation through the mechanical gimbal which already has no problems with telephoto focal lengths on their other models. Going back to the original...

I think DJI could easily implement such a zoom if they wanted do but likely don't due to the many compromises such a design forces, the periscope design they're using is nothing new and was on the go long before Samsung were even making phones. DJI's general trend is to move to bigger sensors...

Yes, you keep posting misinformation - the reason I have to keep replying to you is because you keep posting the wrong information in this thread, you posted that the Mavic 4 pro does not use a 'true' micro 4/3 sensor which is blatantly wrong as I've now had to explain multiple times. You...

You can disagree all you want but pretty much everything you think about micro 4/3 is categorically wrong. As I linked to above, your assertion that a micro 4/3 sensor must be a 4:3 ratio is wrong - the micro 4/3 standard allows for 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 and 1:1 aspect ratios. The early Panasonic GH...

Micro 4/3 sensors do not have to be 4:3 or any specific aspect ratio, the 4/3 measurement is a diagonal measurement across the frame and there have been other micro 4/3 sensors that are not 4:3 that have been used in micro 4/3 certified cameras...

Looking purely at sensor size that would be correct, the Mavic 4 tele lenses use a 1/1.3in (same as the Mini 3/Mini 4) and a 1/1.5in sensor both of which are smaller than a 1in sensor. However I don't really see the point in comparing the tele lenses on the Mavic 4 to the wide angle sensor on...

Slightly off topic I guess but curious to hear what you liked about the Mavic 3 over the Mavic 2 Pro?
