To upgrade from the Mini 2

[cmj0929]

I have the mini 2 and was considering upgrading to the air 2, would it really be worth it or should i just keep what i have ? I do professional photography/Videography which is why i'm considering the upgrade.

Oh yes, its a huge step up because is so close to the Mavic 2 Zoom
It quickly became our favorite Drone of the last 4 years.

The Super Size Pictures and the quality of the Video is also a step up.
Not to mention now your in Smart Controller territory which is gaining value with every new drone that is added.

With the right Gear you can turn it into a Super Drone.

I added an Air 2 to my mini 2 and am very pleased I did so.

Having both, the MA2 is my go to drone for many reason most of which have been covered on this site.

I have both and feel that they compliment each other very well. There are times and situations where one will work better than the other. I would not, however, suggest jumping up to the M2 series right now as the performance difference between it and the MA2 is negligible in relation to the costs for most( upwards of 50% more for a better sensor but overall performance about the same) and the likelihood of seeing something about a M3 series in the, hopefully near, future. Now if the M3 is announced and has a huge performance boost but the M2 series price drops significantly then it becomes a matter of wants vs needs vs costs for each of us. The FPV has occusync 3.0 so even if nothing else happens that might be a deciding factor for some in regards to latency for control and a/v capture.

Yeah now that I’m actually doing some deeper research I’m actually thinking of getting a Mavic 2 pro though I may wait for a while to see if they release anything new which would hopefully make the price drop a bit

Get it now... mature platform that does a great job.

Air 2S is coming soon, I'd wait a little either if you want a discount on the Air 2 combo or prefer the Air 2S.
