It's quite refreshing to get an opinion about new DJI Mini 3 Pro from an actual landscape photographer. I was struggling to get a good perspective on this one, because a lot of reviewers are not into photography at all, but you really brought me a big step closer to actually buying this drone

Must admit, my first drone [Mini 2] I deemed it necessary to fly high and at a distance - now, as you mentioned, I often just shoot at a reasonable height (100 feet perhaps) to get in the view I want. Exposure bracketing is good and with the portrait ability now I will try out as you say to produce a pano. Thank you

I'm in LOVE with this drone. It's incredible what DJI was able to fit into such a portable and stealthy package. Thanks for the tips on panoramas. The jpg ones it produces leave much to be desired and lightroom messes up the horizon when merging the unstitched raw images that are taken during the autopano process. Looks like I just need to carefully shoot them manually. No biggie!

It was long I was hoping you'd make a drone video, and here finally it is! And I'm glad you did it with the Mini 3 Pro. So small yet so powerful. I have the DJI Air 2S and I'm truly happy with it. But I must admit the possibility of rotating the camera for portrait is an amazing feature; it's more practical than stitching together two horizontal images. And I also agree with you that DJI should allow raw panos instead of jpeg. Hopefully DJI will hear you! Great review and great video Nigel. And I'm very much looking forward to getting one of your Seascapes in my hands!

I think this review is the one that brings me closest to purchasing one. I flew my brothers mini 2 around my rural area about a month ago, over crops, creeks, forest, down country roads, over the river, flight distance/air time easily 15 km ( not transmission distance), even inspected my roof and chimney. The quality of the images was impressive, the ease and robust flight ability, even in a 20 kph wind, was mind blowing. I knew this one was launching so I started looking into the imaging quality of both. I know the 2 is 1/3 the cost with the bundle you need to actually utilize either, but the ability to really work on aerial photography with the 3 makes it the winner by a mile. Back when I worked in forestry for a living I spent years looking at aerial imaging and was always amazed, now with these drones the potential is limitless!

Nigel, great video! I am a licensed drone pilot and have been at it since the DJI Phantom ll, yet I am reminded by your video how awesome it is to get the perspective from a drone camera that can't be had with the best terrestrial kit. I shoot a Sony A! with Sony 600mm F4 and not a single image from that kit has sold well as stock. My Drone photos continue to be my best sellers. I have joked with my wife that we should sell our high end Sony gear and shoot with our iPhones and Drones. We can call out business Ron & Chris' Phone and Drone view of the world. Keep up the great work and we will keep watching. 😎🤙

I never thought I can sort out at least two of those issues, just by doing some manual bracketing and pano stitching. Great video, you just made me fly my drone more creatively :D

I love the images and how you made them. I often an amazed at what the sky and clouds do so well. Living in West Central Florida which is luckily a weatheer convergence zone the nature of these elements are simply amazing. What I have seen and heard from you forced me to subscribe and follow you always now. Your work ethics are very good and I will learn a lot using my lovely mini 3 pro for sure. They are great at videos but I really love the camera for its image abilities as a flying camera not on the ground. I have beautiful cameras and lenses but the drone is special. I still love my Mavic pro2 with Hasselblad as well as others I own but the Mini 3 is a special one for its abilities and flight times. I have not had the well spoken of issues and now it even has a longer distance as I like to go out about a miles towards the gulf of mexico I live so close to (2 miles). A flying camera is magic to my eyes. Thanks so much for posting this valuable information and ideas. Ray C Florida

Though for the price it is it's no longer really considered an introductory drone like the previous two minis.

Great video, I'm doing full 360 panoramas using portrait mode. It's tricky but I switch the map in the bottom left hand corner into compass mode so I can get 8 directions by judging north, north east, east, south east, etc. I'm using the bracketed shots to get HDR but being able to do the 48 megapixel mode as well would be amazing. I use PTGui to stitch my pictures together, how do you deal with vignettes when using lightroom to stitch the panoramas?

I've got my mini 3 pro a few days ago. now registered, it alowed me to go pretty much city center (munich) because of its weight and reduced restrictions. As a beginner, I made a nice night timelapse video flying over the river isar which divides both halfes of the city including car traffic patterns and single sources of people going for a walk with headlamps. I am just in disbelief of how good this thing is in every regard, be it flying, the new remote, the pictures, the videos. I feel so lucky to have this thing.

I have a Mini 2 and portrait mode is the one thing I miss from my old Mavic Pro. The automated 9 shot pano has all the shots at strange angles that I have never been able to correct in LR/PS. It also doesn't bracket very far on the +/-. As a result, for 'that' shot I use manually bracketed and aimed shots. A 27 shot AEB pano takes a few minutes to shoot! End result is excellent but I must admit I do think about a Mini 3 from time to time so I could just go back to portrait mode!

Hi Nigel, great video, nice to see you on the mend from your surgeries. I'm thinking of getting a drone but have no experience with using them, are they easy to fly? how do you go about leaning and getting started?

Hope you are feeling better. Good vlog especially as you concentrated on the camera shooting stills which I mainly use a drone for. I have a Mavic Pro 2 and I guess the quality of the pictures especially if you bracket aren't that different. The main reason I am thinking of getting is size/weight I live in the Lakes and am on the fells a lot and find myself not bringing my drone due to how much I am carrying. Still trying to convince myself that is a good enough reason!

Thanks. Great tips. Just got this drone. Do you shoot exposure bracket with every shot no matter the subject?

Excellent work and thank you for providing a slightly different perspective than most other reviews of the mini 3. I realize that it is not a fair comparison and that they probably are aimed at slightly different tasks but how do you think the mini 3 compares to the mavic 3 in terms of photo quality and where do you see the biggest difference?

Interesting that you took it out for a fly even though it is raining a bit 😊 I do not dear to use my Air 2S when there is rain in the air. The hdr is always a bit of a mystery to me, do not know if I should use auto or pro setting for that, how much it brackets and what baseline it uses on auto. So probably best off doing it manually as in this video.

Thank you for a great video, Nigel. You have probably also noticed that, for some reason, the lens profile is not embedded into the DNG. Being so, could you kindly share what lens profile you use in Lr? Thanks!

Great video Nigel did you manually focus or just leave it on infinity when taking photos?

Nigel, do you have any advice or recommendations on panorama overlap in terms of degrees or percentages or otherwise?

Thanks for this great video. I have a motorcycle channel that I thought would benefit with a drone footage, but, as a former nature/landscape photographer I am so very interested in developing a just drone perspective. You got a new subscriber tonight. Thanks for sharing....Bob

Nigel, can you explain your sequence of shooting the raw files, with a bracket & pano. Do you just repeat the process two or three times with manual exposures? How is it possible they would line up?

Hello. Can you tell if in the mini 3 PRO the spherical panorama mode takes advantage of the gimbal's full potential to go up 60º and delivers the individual raw photos, with this increase in height? It would help a lot in post production, to complete the missing sky (zenith). Thanks

Hi Nigel, eally great video Nigel. Excellent tip about Panos. A query- when I format my card the numbering of files starts from 1 again and there seems no way to reslove this apart from not formatting the card- but just deleting images and leaving the last one on it. I like to reformat my card regulalrly so that doesn't work have you found a work around. Many thanks Julie

Great tips!, i'm also impressed by how you are able to manually stitch together photo's without the drone doing it for you. How do you know you aren't missing parts of the landscape you are trying to shoot?
