Mini 3 VS Mini 3 Pro

[EliteBleader]

So it seems we’re getting 2 versions of the mini 3. The mini 3 and the mini 3 pro. What do you think will be different between these models? And looking at the leaked prices, if you were going to get one then which version would you get?

Going strictly from what I've seen in Rumorland, I'll be going for the Standard version when it comes out.

If Rumorland is correct, the only upgrades in the Pro version are photography related, and photography isn't my main interest. At least, not in any refined sense.

I have no immediate need or interest in photography capabilities greater than those of the Mini-2s that I already have.

But we'll see!

Seems like a waste of energy to speculate until we either see more leaks or the actual unveil in a couple weeks.

I’m just interested to see what peoples opinions are.

Yeah, but it's fun, which is justification enough!

That, of course, is entirely subjective

In a similar spirit, I will state that Coffee is the best ice cream flavor. Debate.

I’ll do what I always do - wait between six months and a year until the bugs are ironed out and everyone that’s not an ‘influencer' has given them a proper field test.

After the mavic 3, we do indeed have to be careful.

I may be an alien, but I'm looking forward to being a Beta Tester!

It wouldn’t surprise me if Mini 3 Pro flight time was less than Mini 3, the Mini 3 Pro 1-inch CMOS sensor surely is heavier over the Mini 3 camera.

Even several grams, Coupled with drag can decrease flight time on a small drone.

From experience, it did my Mini 1 and my Parrot Anafi. Adding on a tiny tracker greatly reduced flight time. Just thinking out loud, hopefully I’m wrong.

Comparing weight between air2 and Air2S camera units.

Has anybody here ever done that?

I don't know the camera weight but the Air 2S is 25g heavier then the MA2. It is worth noting the Air 2S has two censors more than the MA2. In the Mini world 20-25g represents around 8-10% of its total weight.

1000 times so...

I really hope it has a 1" sensor,but I have a feeling it will end up being something like 1/1.3.
Really hope I am wrong here.

I'm waiting for the Mini 4 Extra Pro.
