Earlier this week, I spent a morning with a friend, his wife, and kids. I was able to capture some amazing footage of wildlife and boats at sea. I dedicate this video to all father's around the world,

Very well done. I notice your video has very close up scenes of ducks and other wildlife. I don’t believe I could get close enough to get those video with my Air2 without spooking them.

Is your success due to the zoom ability of the Mavic Pro and/or quiet propellers?

Thanks for the feedback, I never used the zoom ability on the Mavic Pro. I'm using the stock propellers on this drone; they didn't seem to spook the wildlife. The Mavic Pro 1st Gen and Mavic 2 Zoom are two vastly different drones where the Mavic 2 Zoom and Mavic 2 Pro are a lot newer with better cameras onboard. If I was to zoom on the Mavic Pro 1st gen, the video quality would likely degrade quickly accompanied with a lot of noise.

I've had close encounters with seagulls, but they don't seem to feel violated if I'm near them. I thought the Mavic Air 2 was a lot quieter. I just recently purchased and received an Air 2s.
