The first drone I got was the Phantom 4, which I did like and it opened the world of aerial photography to me.
I sold it and got the Mavic Pro purely for size/transportation considerations knowing the image quality was a bit of a step down (unfortunately).
I am a photographer by trade, and it was often difficult to travel/head out somewhere with my gear - do I bring both sets of tools (how?) or WHICH would I bring. The mavic helped change that.
The Air seems to take it even further where it takes up even less space and is (noticeably?) lighter, while also improving on both image and video quality (I think?).
I'd basically be guaranteed to lose money in this upgrade... but is it "worth it"? I do wonder about the Mavic Pro 2, but I haven't really heard a thing about that and it seems like the Phantom 5 is out next anyway...
As a photographer I'd absolutely love the best IQ possible and the Phantom 5 with the rumored interchangeable lenses/bigger sensor is what I'd love - but NOT at the compromise of that weight+size
