Ive been a professional landscape photographer for close to 40 years, so at the risk of overwhelming you with details, I'll give it a shot.
The camera on the Mavic is quite capable of providing depth that you refer to, but depth in a still is different from depth in a video, or I should say it can be achieved in different manners.
First, in a photo you can do the same thing with the Mavic camera as you can do with a DSLR, depending on the effect you seek. One method is focusing on a close foreground object and having the background out of focus and is fairly easy with the Mavic as it has a wide open fixed aperture, which lends itself to narrower DOF.
The other method requires getting very close to foreground objects, having them AND the background objects in sharp focus and letting their relative size indicate depth. The Mavic camera is not so good using this method, for the reason that due to its fixed wide open aperture, greater DOF is harder to achieve, AND with drones, we don't normally shoot that way, as our foregrounds and backgrounds tend to be relatively farther away, out of necessity.
So that second method is somewhat of a problem for stills using the Mavic but not out of the question if done correctly.
On the other hand, for video we have the advantage of smoothly introducing moving foreground objects to achieve a great sense of depth.
I am actually quite impressed with the capabilities built into the Mavic camera, even though some beginners find them to be overly complicating.
I think many of the other posters touched on several of these principals, so I hope I didn't just repeat or confuse the issue, by adding my 2 cents.
