    Mavic 4 Pro?

    Mavic 3 Pro was released on 5/25/23. Mavic 4 Pro is at least one year away, based on DJI's typical release schedule. With two cameras (1X & 3X), Mavic 3 weights at 895g. With three cameras, Mavic 3 Pro weights at 958g. Mavic 4 is most likely going to be even heavier, because DJI is approaching...

    (For the Mavic 3 Pro) Photo quality of the x3 and x7 camera in real life

    If you are upgrading from Air2S to Mavic 3 Pro, the biggest upgrade is NOT about image quality. Creative freedom is where you should put focus on. The freedom that you can shoot with 24mm, 70mm, and 166mm lens at the same time, in a single flight. Regarding the image quality of the 3X & 7X...

    Be careful when buying Polar Pro filters.

    I am currently using the one from PolarPro. Before that, I tried the one from PGYTech, and STARTRC. To be honest, none of them is perfect. Each has its own issues. But all things considered, PolarPro is the best of them all. The polarizing filters from PYGTech and STARTRC share the same...

    I think that I shall pass on the Mavic 3 Pro for an Air 3 now that the lens specs have been revealed.

    Both lens (24mm, 70mm) are paired with 1/1.3" sensor, OV48C, made by OmniVision. https://www.ovt.com/products/ov48c/

    Any Help with a USA Trip Please

    You can get some pretty decent aerial shots along the Pacific Coast Highway. If you come visit the States again, try drive the entire PCH, starting from Seattle and end at San Diego. You will be amazed by how scenery changes from Washington to Oregon, and to California. Pacific Coast...

    Flying M3P in Europe?

    Can you explain in more detail about why having to maintain over 300m horizontal distance from towns? I read your earlier post about 30m horizontal separation from people, but nowhere did it mention having to maintain 300m separation from towns.

    Mavic 3 Pro

    I flied Air 2S & Mavic 3 with RC-N1 controller in Croatia, Montenegro and Italy sometimes back. I could fly ~4km one way in open field. I remember still having three bars signal at that distance. The signal quality was never the problem, the battery life is. I have seen pilots in UK...

    Mavic 3 pro lag. Anyone else?

    DJI smart controller lasted 2 years and 10 months, until it was replaced by RC Pro. Now that RC Pro is out for one year and 7 months, it won't be too long for DJI to release its successor.

    Can Mavic 3 be upgraded with gimbal camera from Mavic 3 Pro?

    It must be. Not sure why some people think Mavic 3 and Mavic 3 Pro are identical, except the gimbal cameras. In reality, there are many subtle changes, both inside and outside.

    Can Mavic 3 be upgraded with gimbal camera from Mavic 3 Pro?

    A pilot in China documented his attempt to "upgrade" a Mavic 3 to Mavic 3 Pro, by swapping the gimbal cameras. The end result: smoke came out of the circuit board, the moment he turned on the drone. Link to original video

    Freewell polarized ND filters and vinetting

    It looks like you are using one of the 3rd party software to decode the DNG file. If you want no surprise, use Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop to open Mavic 3's DNG files. You will see a "perfect" image without vignetting at four corners. What happened here is that DJI embedded the lens profile...
