I'm sorry, I stole this from the new Mavic ll forum. Only 24 hours to go not much left to know.

Well their teaser says "It's about time" and the video shows time lapse & hyper-lapse so I am guessing that their new drone (MP 2?) will have new or enhanced time lapse of hyper-lapse features.

Anyone think these will be available tomorrow at places like Best Buy and B&H or more likely just available for online orders from DJI?

Mavic Pro took 4-5 months before the high street shops had a reliable supply.
They may have improved them somewhat but for sure the mavic 2s are going to sell out. There's going to be a supply/demand problem for quite a while.

Seems like half the guys on here are unloading MP's is hopes of scoring a mp2. So expect a decent wait time!

For the sake of my wallet, I hope not.

My guess is that it while take a while for stock to hit external retail channels, but we shall see.

Pretty interesting that the Pro camera supports HLG.

gnirtS · Aug 22, 2018

HLG and 10 bit. And variable aperture. That's a lot higher spec than i thought.

It wouldn't surprise me if it's in Best Buy's Sunday flyer. They had an extra 30 days from the cancelled announcement. Plus rumor has it they've been in production since February. DJI'S releases have been going better but I don't think the demand was as high as it will be for the magic 2.

Wow I have never seen an event that has had it's details leaked so badly.
I like the look of the camera specs but the big issue is going to be price! If it's sub $1000 it will be enticing, if its like $1500 they can keep it because that will be $1500 plus another boat load of accessory $$. By time I am finished it would be a $2000 investment. Anyway fingers crossed that they don't botch up the delivery times.

I'm expecting $2k for the mavic pro 2 with fly more. And i'll be trying to get it as soon as possible.

sonder · Aug 22, 2018

it's been the 23rd for over an hour here, and I still don't have a mavic 2, what's the hold up?

lmel2005 · Aug 22, 2018

Grrrrrrr! Now we have to wait for Magic 3.
