in today's video I'll be providing my review of the Mavic 2 Zoom quick
spoiler alert I don't really have much negative things to say about the matter
- zoom this is an amazing drawing I really enjoyed flying this thing and
this will be my go-to drone moving forward I've always wanted zoom lens for
my drone for a very long time that's why I went with maverick - if you want to
find out more reasons why I chose to zoom over the pro I'll link the video
down below to check it out I've been flying them ever to zoom for over a
month now I also bought a couple of accessories such as the Viper to fly
more kit as well as a four pack ND filters if you're interested to find out
a little bit more about the fly more kit and the ND filters I'll link those
videos down below okay the Maverick tube comes in two types
there's the member - zoom and the maverick - pro now both of these drones
are essentially the same the looming difference is the camera and there are
some significant software and hardware upgrades compared to the original
maverick Pro I'll talk about what has changed in comparison to the original
maverick pro before I dig deeper into the camera specs the flight time is up
from 27 to 31 minutes with mavet to the 31 minutes is actually what DJI has
published in their website realistically probably getting about 27 to 28 minutes
of flight time again this is subject to weather conditions and how far so how
hard to push them every turn I actually test out the map to zoom just hovering
inside my house
pretty dangerous do not try this at home and I actually got 30 minutes before it
decided to land by itself the magnitude has been upgraded with omnidirectional
senses basically a lot more senses compared to the original maverick probe
in the front at the back of the side down below beware that the right and
left senses are only active when you're in beginner and tripod all the magnitude
also supports the a pas or advanced pilot assistance systems similar to the
maverick air with this feature in the aircraft can automatically avoid
obstacles in its flight path when flying forward or backward a fan is very very
responsive as you can see in this video the transmission system has been
upgraded to give it context when I blew my Mavic Pro or dynamic air in a
hardware or shipyard I'm getting a lot of interference in my transmission I
never had this issue with the map too soon so here so far it is working for me
and the videos I'm seeing are very clear so there's an LED light at the bottom of
the nabek to zoom this LED line kicks in when the Manitou tube is landing in
low-light situation basically it gives a better landing views on YouTube downward
visual positioning system in the magnetism comes with old and new
intelligent flight modes borrows some of the quick shots from the previous
maverick drones such as droney helix rapid boomerang circle asteroid with the
maverick to zoom DJI has added an exclusive quick shot called dolly zoom
and it kind of looks like this
active track is back and it's called active track 2.0 which I find it's a
significant upgrade compared to the previous one and combining it with the
zoom lens it allows you to track even further at the distance as you can see
here mind-blown type of flies cinematic mode and points of interest are there
although I'm a little bit disappointed that they left out waypoints however
they will be looking to add this in the new future update so watch this space
the new intelligent life DJI has added which is becoming my
favorite is the hyperlapse or moving time-lapse and I've used this
extensively in combination with the zoom lens it's a lot of fun and so much
easier to create a time lapse or hyperlapse now before I actually have to
do it manually you know taking 100 to 200 photos and have to stitch them up
manually in a anything software like DJ I took it to another level by making the
software handle everything for you essentially it allows you to create
hyperlapse videos on the fly and very fast and easy to do the gimbal has been
redesigned as you can see here it's lot sturdier and more responsive now DJI
also gave the method to pearl and the map to zoom a new feature called panning
gimbal this means with the drone hovering you can point the camera in
almost any four directions you want to pan the gimbal simply hold down the
screen and drag left and right and you'll notice the gimbal can move in any
direction your finger moves even up and down ever sensor of the mapping to zoom
has the same size as the original maverick Pro it also has the same 12
megapixels the unique feature is that a map to zoom can do up to 4 times zoom
including a 2 times optical zoom of 24 to 40 millimeter now compared to a 24
millimeter wide angle lens the telephoto lens has a long range allowing you to
take photographs or videos of the subject far far away also comes with
lossless zoom you know when shooting Full HD videos is so good it gives you a
closer look of your faraway subjects makes unique scenes more accessible to
capture the distance you know this option helps you maintain a safer
distance buildings vehicles animals and people
here's a couple of examples and overall I do find the zoom so amazing you know
you see some clarity on the detail especially if you zoom in to see the
details of what you're looking at then the map to zoom comes with the stock
standard panorama modes found in previous map drones DJI has added
another exclusive feature called the super resolution photos this new super
resolution feature is a major plus when capturing vivid details in landscape
photography taking a photo the camera will capture and patch nine photos
within its telephoto lens resulting in a forty eight megapixel super resolution
photo here's some examples I'm so amazed with images coming out specially with
the super high-resolution feature as for recording videos Mavic to zoom can shoot
up to 4k 30 frames per second and I was a little bit disappointed that DJI did
add 4k 60 frames per second you know it also comes with other video recording
settings also the other main thing to note for is that the mapping to zoom
also records 4k videos at a higher bitrate with advanced h.265 compression
videos in h.265 maintains 50% more information that videos in h.264
creating high quality videos with better preserve details Wallis I don't
generally shoot at night well I'm not really allowed to I did
went out outside to a nearby park and hovered magmatic to zoom then took a
couple of images and videos just to see how it performs in low-light conditions
so that's a lot of things to cover but overall this is an amazing drone I
really enjoyed flying this drone and as I mentioned before this is my go through
drone moving forward I did had some issues with the DJI Go app whenever I
use screen recording when I hit the home button when I go out actually
disconnects the app to the drone which is kind of annoying not sure what
its apps pull or is it because I'm using an older iOS version anyway it's just
something that I can live with it yes it can be annoying for those who own the
original Maverick Pro suppose the question is whether it's worth upgrade
to the map to zoom I feel that if you're really satisfied with the image quality
and the features of the original magnet pearl then you don't necessarily need to
upgrade to the map to zoom however the backup to zoom does bring a lot of
unique features you know with the zoom lens dollar zoom and the other upgrades
all in all of you can afford it and you know you're gonna be using the drone a
lot then the upgrades will be totally worth question of the day which map to
drill did you buy is it a map to zoom or the mana to Pearl feel free to comment
down below would love to hear so yeah that's really about it
