The
mini 3 versus
mini 2 isn’t all about video / photography and price. As one person said, “it’s like choosing between best and worst lenses when getting your eye Rx”. We are now comparing something that is already so finely tuned it really is hard to choose a winner without some analysis
.
I’m currently vacationing the Canadian Atlantic provinces and I’m capturing shots on my
mini 2 that are so awesome be it stills or video. Orbiting shots, shots from altitude, and the list goes on…fantastic. I must say, I do love the challenge of trying to tell the difference between the
mini 2 and
mini 3, but they both are amazing performers.
When I return home to the West Coast of Canada at the end of this month I will be waiting for my new
mini 3 pro scheduled for delivery mid July. Then I can make my own personal comparisons. Mostly, I love the size of the minis for travel, flying performance…and their reputation for photography precedes itself.
Just in case you wonder why I bought a
mini 3? One, I’m OCD about having the latest design. Two, I sold my
air 2S for the smaller mini3…which is a mini version of the
air 2S with very similar characteristics. I will keep the
mini 2 and use the
mini 3 for those risky areas where OA is really appreciated.
BTW, try sitting a group down to view a slide show of your vacation versus videos taken from all angles, heights, and distances with superb quality and then YOU tell me the difference.
Thanks for letting me share my take on comparisons.
