I think DJI nailed it with that 70mm lens, such a great focal length for being able to really add additional shots that are dramatically different than the standard drone shot. Instead of an interchangeable lens phantom DJI gave us everything in one drone without needing to land to change lenses

"Thanks a lot for including the link to the original drone footage! It’s super helpful to see the real quality without YouTube compression. Much appreciated!"

[ericstaudenmaier]

Any improvements to the pano features? Is the main camera any sharper in the corners than the Mavic 3? How does Pano work on the 70?

[jsdronephotography]

What about the panorama modes? Are they available with the 3X lens?

[VincentMartinFree]

Very nice 👌 I'm thinking about getting one. That will complete my Mavic series for now till the next episode😊

[gala_x_ci]

Great Review! Do you think the DJI RC Pro need to have a shade under daylight to see the screen?

[seachris]

It’s the rocky museum awesome billy !!!

[BardhokNdoji]

Nice video as usual Billy, Do you use RT Timelapse for your timelapse videos? If not, I would highly recommend to have a look at it.

[BillTheDroneReviewer]

Well done Billy. Thank you for taking a deep dive into the details about the cameras ! The options available with the new camera are fantastic. Anxious to get mine and to try hyperlapse with it

[Bryan-qjot]

Hi Billy what do you use on your video setting? H264 or h265, I hear h265 will give you better quality? And Do you use DaVinci resolve for your editing?

[ms.]

Hi Billy. Thanks for one more fine video about drones. Does this not have C1 class marking?

[mavs]

Does the Mavic 3 PRO has the WAYPOINT mode like the one that was not too long ago implemented in the FLY app for the DJI Mavic, Billy. There you're able to make and edit waypoints which then is flown automatically by the drone...

[AlloffroadAu]

I often find myself hoping that the Mavic 3 Classic would have better object tracking capabilities. It tends to struggle with tracking cars on different types of terrain, from open sand deserts and beaches to trickier terrain like following tracks in the woods. Since I mainly take drone shots of nature and cars, I frequently encounter issues where I need to fly very close to a car for DJI to recognize it and track it reliably. Is it possible for me to use the tele camera and stay further away while still having the car recognized?

[HuFilms]

Billy, those shots of Philly with the tele lenses were insanely good. Such tight symmetry and alignment. Great work man, I think I'll upgrade to the M3 Pro!

[JaredJames]

So is the 7x telecamera much sharper than Mavic 3 and I’m assuming it supports RAW? I would love to see a Straight out of the camera comparison DNG Images from the two drones (Pro and the original Mavic 3) if you get time. Great video and thank you very much.

[digitalkiteaerial]

Great explanation of the lenses and their differences. Thanks

[MikeKinney]

Awesome, that 70mm addition is a game changer .Give that engineer a. raise who thought of that. Great review Billy

[johnpftd]

Excellent! Great review. I know you’re a perfectionist for hyperlapse, but that tight-in of Philly with the traffic was pretty darn good.

[IFLYHIGHDRONETOGRAPHY]

Thank you Billy! I love that 70mm hyperlapse option!

Hi there from South Jersey (Moorestown). Maybe you know, but is it legal to use your drone to get footage of the bridges going over to Jersey? Like the Ben Franklin or the Commodore or whatever.
