of course, I use the flight plan with the bebop 2 power and sent the drone on 25 minutes courses around islands, rocks, over the sea without constant wifi connections and made great videos - unpossible without the flight plan app. Today I understood, that dji removed the waypoint function again from their dji go app for the new mavic 2. This function was available in the beta app but the waypoints were only able to plan with connection to the drone. Till the plan was created the akku was under 70%. Parrot flight plan works offline - you can plan your flight whereever, whenever on your mobile - also without your drone.

Great review. I own the DJI P4P and M2Z. I have had the Anafi for just over two weeks now and I am impressed. I have been flying it 90% of the time since. The app’s user interface is great. Contrary to your personal preferences, I like the Anafi’s up/down camera switches layout. They’re intuitive, even after years of using DJI products. I also prefer the Anafi’s controller design over the M2Z. The ergonomics can do with some improvements, but it is my number 1 controller design at the at the moment.

The comparsion between the Anafi and the Mavic Air in the beginning - take your pick: - a really quiet drone which propellers take about 5 minutes to change (which you do once a year) vs a drone that is very noise all the time but you can change the propllers quick - a "lower quality built" at first sight that holds up just as it should vs a "good quality built" that is so heavy it flies almost 10 minutes shorter. Wondering which is better...

That's a great and informative video, thanks a lot! secondly, how do they compare on ranges and wind stability, especially Anafi VS the Mavic Pro and VS the Phantom 4?
@9thavestudio116 жыл бұрын
We didn't notice any significant difference in range. Its hard to measure in the real world because of varying weather conditions and interference. For all intensive purposes, Id say they were basically the same. As far as wind and stability, the original Mavic Pro as well as the Phantom 4 Pro are much less susceptible to drifting. The Anafi tends to drift a bit more, but not as bad as the GoPro Karma. Stability-wise, the gimbal on the Anafi is very good. In normal wind conditions, it compares similarly to the original Mavic Pro. You wouldn't notice any major difference. The Phantom 4 has a bit more weight to it giving it a little more stability than the other two if the winds get a little stronger.

Why are you even comparing software post processing(sharpening etc) for drones as if comparing hardware cameras,, This is not a smartphone where people only shoot in auto mode..
@9thavestudio116 жыл бұрын
If you are talking about the Mavic Pro, the over-sharpened footage is strait out of camera and is therefor not post processing. Only in log or custom modes are you given an image without sharpening right out of camera. The point of the image quality comparison was to compare default image quality of each drone.
@deadlykitten65466 жыл бұрын
yeah but the iso, shutter speed, exposure, resolution or even filters you choose are all tweakable and different,, meaning comparison of things like details, shadows are quite pointless. Even the sharpening can be added further or softened in post, while what you did is comparing them like smartphone cameras pictures
@9thavestudio116 жыл бұрын
I disagree. Core image quality factors such as detail, dynamic range and compression put a limit on the potential final image. For instance, you cannot add detail or dynamic range in post. Additionally, I conducted tests for each drone at their best possible setting, including log modes. These tests are meant to give an idea of how well each drones footage responds to color grading and file compression. Experienced videographers will and have found these test very useful. To say the tests are pointless is a bit aggressive.
@deadlykitten65466 жыл бұрын
sorry for my careless wording, well did you do it all under the same ISO, shutter speed, etc? and yes like you said, the bitrate, sensor size, etc etc all will factor into the final result, but theyre things already listed on the spec sheet, To me tho honestly youre still merely comparing software processing than camera hardware/quality, just my opinions tho, for ppl rarely change their camera settings this indeed could be helpful or at least informative (then again, i dont think these ppl will care about the differences only visible after several times digital zoomed in)
@9thavestudio116 жыл бұрын
No problem. Yes. All of the side by side comparisons were done at the exact same settings the only difference being that the Mavic has a wider fixed aperture, so it was shot at 1/3 stop faster shutter speed to compensate, which shouldn’t make any difference as they were all above 1/1000. I see your point that those not changing setting may not care about camera quality as much. However, for others, the spec sheet only tell you basic information but does not show you how this translates to the real world because any image that is captures by a camera sensor must go through software processing done by the manufacturer which is out of the consumers control. This includes any camera that doesn’t shoot uncompressed raw, which doesn’t go through software encoding or compression. Any camera that produces a viewable video file must be compressed and encoded. The methods of compressions and encoding are designed by the manufacturer and are out of the control of the consumer. This includes techniques like oversampling and pixel binning. This is the reason cameras with the exact same sensor can produce a different image (Sony A7R II and Sony A7R III).
