If you have an Air3 are you going to upgrade to Air3S?

[VenomXts]

So who ordered?

lol, I'm waiting for Amazon and some reviews with research before I pull the trigger if anything the Mavic 3 original release has made me really want a update post release as well (or two/three).

It turns out that the Air 3s does not have a variable aperture, (very disappointing) so I'll not be getting it. I'm sorry to have said it was supposed to as I had been misinformed. I'll wait to see what the Mavic 4 has to offer and the price. I may pick up a Mavic 3 Pro as the prices come down.

He was referring to the page he linked above. More specifically, this section of that page:

View attachment 178303

So "both cameras will have the same aperture f1.8" means adjustable aperture?

And there is nothing wrong with that. If you're happy with the drone you have, good. But as you said, those of us who are professional drone pilots and photographers have to stay updated to remain competitive. Our clients expect the best; sometimes upgrading equipment is necessary to deliver the best. My Air 3 does a great job but the 1" censor and variable aperture with the Air 3s is a game changer.

Totally agree, and I believe I said that in my post. I’m just saying that maybe recreational flyers would like better connectivity, or battery life or other features besides a golly gee, oh wow, super awesome camera. It’s the comparison I make with Apple iPhones. I’m not looking to make a Hollywood movie on my phone, but that’s what Apple “thinks” everybody wants.

Obvious question is do you have it turned on? I leave it off because it hasn't worked right in years for me.

Go to the bottom, left-hand corner of your screen tap on the map go over to the right where the airplane symbol is tap on it and you can fix it. You will see how.

Unless you fly near a private airport I wouldn't worry about it. I've had mine on when aircraft have flown over and no warring's have come up.

You’re probably right I just like knowing what’s around me ,and if it is something that they have, I want it to work

Jeg tror, det er den bedst designede drone, der overgår Mavic 3, så for mig er dette perfekt.

Mavic er ikke længere en del af navnet

 

[Colin_Peachey]

yes, hopefully will get bare model without any controller, got 3 spare as it is, and the batteries will fit from the Air 3

Any word on adjustable aperture?

No adjustable aperture.
