Ultimate Video Comparison - Mavic 2 pro vs Mavic 1 Pro vs Mavic Air

[PaulArcher]

Hello guys,
I found myself with 3 drones in hand and I had no idea which one really has the better camera and why. On paper things are easier, but in real life the difference might not be so obvious.
I've been asked quite a lot if it's worth upgrading from to the Mavic 2 Pro if the camera is the only reason, and I really didn't know what to answer.

So I had to test it myself: Mavic 2 pro image quality comparison vs pro and Air

I have zoomed in quite a few times to check the minute details and got pretty tricked by the difference the sharpness setting can have on the final video.

I was quite surprised of the results and I wonder what you opinion on this is.

Which one do you like best?

Did you focus on the face,
f/stop will all make a difference
