Since I already have the MP, I went with the M2P over the zoom.
Adding a zoom to basically the same drone I have now wasn't enough of an incentive.
While the dolly zoom shot is neat, I wouldn't use it much. Figured with the higher quality image in the M2P I can do any zooms I needed in post. (I know it doesn't get that fly back / zoom in effect, but that's okay). I mainly use the still photos anyway.

Website (post launch) says available to order now and ships one day after payment confirmation. Watch this space though...
No I won’t buy.
At the end of the day I love my MP, but the system itself has too many inherent limitations in trading off between portability and performance, and the bigger sensor - while very nice - can’t overcome inherent limitations.
My next will be an i2 (or whatever’s out when I can actually afford one), and I’ll keep my MP as my travel drone.
Keen to hear the feedback from the first few months, post-honeymoon period though...

Actually, the opposite. Square Lens is Pro (Hasselblad) round lens is Zoom version

Fixed at 2.8 but it has a 1 inch sensor so low light performance on the 2 pro will be much better. Effective iso of the 2 is 128000

Looked in the specs and it did not say. Can you share where you read that they would come with the sine wave esc's? Thanks.

My assumption is that 1" sensor with variable 4 stop aperture settings is a real game changer for semi pros looking for a compact package. I'm pretty new in drone fun but a *2 zoom feature doesn't mean too much for me especially when the pro has almost twice as much mpixels. So it can easily reach almost the same quality details (if not better taking the quality of such small zoom lenses vs 1" Hasselblad optics into account) in post when needed.
For me zoom edition features looks like better for hobbyists who want the best possible results right out of the drone without too much post effort. Anyway for recreational usage even the "old" MP is more than enough from quality perspective.
At least that's my opinion and I'm really interested in any opinions regarding the planned purpose - or how they were selected when ordered.
Since my MP is brand new - and it has costed only about half of the MP2 Pro - I'm really at the very beginning of the learning curve so I don't plan to buy a new one. But let's see what future brings in the next year.

Virtual photographer found it exactly as you saw.
Its also hidden near the bottom Mavic 2 - See the Bigger Picture – DJI Powerful, Yet Safe > Quieter - or ctrl-F to search.
I had it at the bottom under Extra.
I am pretty sure MP/Z 2 has brushless motors. DJI has been using brushless motors since the original Phantom!
