your title the same Joan you want
something new well thank God DG I just
want some advic too so sit back relax
and without further ado I made this
video just for you
all right guys before we get into I want
to thank you for tuning in on this
channel I make videos about drones and
photography and don't forget to watch to
the very end because I'm doing a free
giveaway and of course we're all excited
about the Mavic 2 so we're gonna get
into that right now
so DJI just made their big announcement
for the Mavic 2 and it's gonna be two
drones the Mavic 2 pro and the Mavic two
zoom so in this video I'm gonna first
talk about all the similarities between
the two drones and then I'm gonna talk
about the differences and at the very
end I'm gonna give you my opinion my
feedback what I recommend for you let's
start with the design and batteries
they're basically the same drone they
just have different gimble's
so you can swap the batteries no problem
which is a huge plus another similarity
is a flight time they're both going to
be able to fly up to 31 minutes which is
and improve 4 minutes over the pro and a
minute over the Platinum they're also
going to be slightly faster than Pro so
they're gonna be able to fly up to 44
miles an hour with a distance of up to 8
kilometers or about 5 miles now
obviously this is an ideal situation but
so far those specs look great one thing
to know it's not just that this drone
can go farther but it also has a
different transmission so it has
something called
akka sync 2.0 so basically it's going to
be an improved signal from the Mavic Pro
which used akka sync so this will give
you much better transmission switching
from 2.4 to 5.8 frequency and it will
just give you better transmission
especially if you fly in the city or if
you fly really far and you your signal
kind of drops a lot in this case it's
gonna be much improved so if you're
someone who likes to fly really far this
is gonna be definitely a really really
nice added feature
now like the Mavic air they both have 8
gigs of internal storage I would have
liked to see in a little more cuz 8 gigs
it's kind of just a little backup
if you need
money shot you have eight gigs which
equates to about eight to ten minutes of
4k footage might be a little more but
it's not that much so for any
cinematographer out there you're gonna
need a microSD card and to be honest I
thought this was kind of a bummer
because I would have liked to seen at
least 16 gigs in this drone another
commonality between these two drones was
the fact that they can fly in extreme
temperature so they can fly in really
really hot weather during the summer and
over a hundred degrees and then they can
go all the way down to 14 degrees so
that means all you skiers out there
snowboarders and all the people who like
to do extreme sports and cold weather
that means you can use this drone put on
the active track and it will follow you
in those really really cold temperatures
and speaking of active track it's much
improved so this active track is an
improved version of the Mavic air so on
this drone if we talk about active track
we got to talk about sensors both Mavic
two drones have something called
omnidirectional sensors so what that
means is there's going to be sensors on
the top of the drone on the bottom of
the drone in the front in the back and
also on the sides one thing to know only
in quick shot mode or the intelligent
flight mode will you have the the
obstacle avoiding sensors on the sides
however just in normal mode just flying
you'll still have those obstacle
avoidance on the top the bottom the
front and the back which is really
really nice now one thing I've noticed
from using the Phantom 4 Pro is that
there are some blind spots they call it
omnidirectional and not 360-degree
obstacle avoidance so that's one thing
to note there's gonna be small blind
spots however it's gonna be so small
that I don't see it being a problem
and these obstacle avoiding sensors are
gonna be very very helpful when you used
active tracks so when you're using
active track it has an improve active
track so not only will it follow you
from behind from the side from in front
but it's gonna follow you at higher
speeds and it's going to be able to go
behind things so let's say you're
driving your
are you drive around the corner there's
a tree or a building in the way it's
going to think all right you drew you
drove your car around that corner you're
going to come out on the other side of
the road over there so I'm just going to
go follow you over there or I might go
back to the other side it's going to use
its own prediction ability it's
artificial intelligence to follow you so
if you're a skier or snowboarder you can
be skiing down the hill and you can go
behind a tree or maybe get lost and it's
going to come out and it's going to be
able to follow you so having this
feature is gonna be so desired by so
many cinematographers vloggers and
content creators now what about the
video resolution well the video
resolution shoots 4k up to 30 frames per
second and for me this was kind of a
bummer I wish they had 60 frames per
second now the reason DJI did this and
they're not gonna come out and say it
but I'm gonna say it here the reason
they did it is because if they made it
at 4k at 60 frames per second that means
sales would basically go right down the
drain for the phantom4 Pro because that
can shoot 4k up to 60 frames per second
so they didn't want to make the phantom4
Pro obsolete so they only left it at 4k
up to 30 frames per second however it
still has the same bitrate as the
Maverick air and the Phantom 4 Pro of
100 megabytes per second so what that
means is it can transfer data really
fast your video quality is gonna look
tremendous and also you can shoot 1080p
frames per second so if you like doing
super slow motion and High Definition
both of these drones are gonna be able
to do that there's some other small
similarities that I'm gonna mention
briefly so they both have three axis
gimbal they both can shoot JPEG or raw
for photos for video they both shoot an
MOV and mp4 and a codec of h.264 h.265
if you don't know what any of that means
don't worry just basically leave the way
it is by default and it's going to be
fine but for you cinematographers if you
used to the Mavic Pro this is not going
to be anything different gonna be able
to fly in winds up to about 25 miles per
hour maybe even a little faster I
suppose
now the feature that both of these
drones have that I'm most excited about
is hyperlapse
what hyperlapse is is its time-lapse
while the drone is moving so amazingly
enough the Mavic 2 pro and the Mavic 2
zoom can do hyperlapse 4 different ways
it can do it if you just move the drone
normally it can do hyperlapse while you
circle around an object it can do
hyperlapse while you focus on one point
and it just goes straight ahead and it
can also do hyperlapse with waypoints so
you put in different points on the map
or where you're going and it will go to
those different points automatically
while doing the hyperlapse
a nice feature for cinematographers who
shoot a lot of 4k is that both of these
drones will accept 128 gigabyte cards so
you can shoot for a really really long
time and you have to worry about
changing the card ok so now let's talk
about the differences if we talk about
the differences between these two drones
it's the size of the sensor so the Mavic
to zoom has a 1/2 point 3-inch sensor
just like the Mavic pro but the Mavic
tube pro has a Hasselblad 1 inch CMOS
sensor so the pro is gonna have a much
better sensor than the zoom and for you
photographers and cinematographers who
shoot in low light and want more dynamic
range you're gonna really appreciate the
Mavic 2 pro it's also worth mentioning
that the Mavic 2 pro has 14 stops of
dynamic range and the Mavic 2 zoom has 3
13 stops of dynamic range you may be
asking yourself Bret what are you
talking about dynamic range what the
heck does that mean well in layman's
terms it's basically the ability to
manipulate the shadows and the
highlights so anywhere where it's really
overexposed where it's very bright and
anywhere where it's very dark you're
gonna be able to change that in post
you're gonna be able to great it you're
gonna be able to bring out the detail
and the shadow and add more brightness
or exposure to it and then you're going
to be able to under expose or bring down
the highlights so being able to do that
in post is a huge advantage for a
photographer or cinematographer
shoots an area where there's a lot of
contrast or it's really bright in one
area and it's really darkened in another
area because it will make your images
and video just look much more
professional and just overall look
amazing and stand out from other footage
one thing I forgot to add about the
sensors was for photographers you're
gonna really like the pro because it's a
20 megapixel sensor so not only do you
have more resolution because it's a one
inch sensor it's much bigger almost
twice the size but it also has 20
megapixels whereas the smaller zoom
sensor has 12 megapixels now the focal
length for the Mavic 2 pro is 28
millimeters and it's a fixed focal
length and I think the zoom has an
advantage here because it goes all the
way from 24 millimeters to 48
millimeters so being able to zoom in and
zoom out it's going to give you much
more creativity for cinematographers and
much more versatility for photographers
so I think the zoom has the edge here
now usually prime lenses are better so
what that means is a fixed focal length
or having a focal length like 28
millimeters that does not zoom in or
zoom out usually the glass or quality of
the image is going to be better so the
pro might have better quality however
being able to go wide to 24 millimeters
is helpful 28 to me was the same as the
Mavic Pro and it's not quite wide enough
I would have appreciated 20 for a lot
more because I do like to shoot that
wide and the phantom 4 pro shoots at 24
millimeters which may be another reason
that didn't make it 24 millimeters
because DJ I still wanted to sell the
phantom 4 pro version - so with all that
said the zoom does have that 24 to 48
which is great for cinematographers and
people who want to be creative and
vloggers
the 28 to me is not wide enough however
the 28 millimeters will probably have
less distortion and a little less
vignetting so it's gonna be better image
quality so people who want the absolute
best image quality get the pro it's a
no-brainer
now another thing about the lenses is
that the aperture on the pro
you can go all the way from 2.8 to f11
so you can control that on the pro on
the zoom you can't control it when you
zoom in it goes from 2.8 at 24
millimeters and then when you zoom in
all the way to 48 it goes to F 3.8 now
that's kind of a bummer that you can't
control the aperture and that's the way
it goes all right you can't have
everything but just letting you know
with the pro you do have a better
advantage with the aperture being able
to control it and being able to go all
the way from 2.8 to f11 and being able
to shoot at f11 you can use a slower
shutter and you may not need to use ND
filters as much as the zoom so with the
zoom being able to shoot at 2.8 and 3.8
you're gonna let a lot of light in so
you're gonna probably want to get an ND
filter if you do buy the zoom all right
another big difference is the color
modes they both shoot with the cine like
mode however the pro has the d log mode
and for all you cinematographers out
there who like to do a lot of
post-production change the colors grade
it you can shoot super flat they call it
d log that's basically like s log for
Sony and some of the other logs for
other brands and basically log means
it's gonna shoot the image with
basically no colors no highlights no
shadows it's going to be all pretty much
the same and then in post-production you
can change you can add the colors you
can add the saturation or D saturation
and you can add in all the highlights
and the shadows now personally I found
cine like is a happy medium it's not
like normal it's not like log it's in
between it has really great cinematic
colors right out of the bat especially
with the skin tones so I don't like to
grade a ton in post and I think you're
gonna appreciate the cine like mode
because if you use that with either
drone you won't have to do any editing
and post it's gonna look very cinematic
and beautiful right out of the camera
now one last thing in terms of
cinematography and photography the Mavic
2 Pro has 10 bit color depth what that
means is unlike
the Matic pro that had 8-bit 10-bit
color depth will give you more vibrancy
more variety of colors to use the image
quality is just going to be that much
more accurate that much more pleasing to
the eye and I think you're gonna
appreciate it both for photos and for
video now the zoom is still gonna be
great it's just gonna be that the pro is
going to be better now being better I
just mean that the pro is gonna be
better for image quality for other
features the Zoom is going to be better
so let's talk about one of those
features the dolly mode now the dolly
mode is a new intelligent flight mode
that they added to the zoom and what
this is is it's sort of like a parallax
effect so whenever you hear the word
dolly mode or parallax effect some
people use the word vertigo effect but I
don't think that's accurate
dolly mode or a parallax effect is
you'll be able to zoom in and zoom out
and the background of your image is
gonna come towards you or go away from
you as you move closer to the image or
move away so it's going to create this
weird effect like your background is
almost moving while you're moving so
this effect is really great if you're
shooting scenery of mountains of tall
buildings anywhere where you have a lot
of depth in your image between something
really high and something really low
having this parallax effect or this
dolly mode effect is going to be great
and it used to be that you had to do
this all in post-production but now you
can do it in this intelligent flight
mode with just a click of the button now
because the Mavic tube Pro doesn't zoom
in or zoom out you're not going to be
able to get this dolly mode but you have
the other intelligent flight modes as
such as asteroid mode such as you know
drone II rocket all these modes that you
had before that you liked are also going
to be in this drone I've listed them
right here alright so which one to
choose which one should you go for this
is a tough decision because they're
basically the same size they look like
the same exact drone except when you see
the head or the gimbal if you're a
photographer hands down I would get the
Mavic 2 Pro now if you're a
cinematographer it's really tough
because having that Zhu
gives you a lot of flexibility you also
have four millimeters wider you get the
dolly effect or the parallax effect so
it's gonna be a really really tough call
but I think for a cinematographer I was
still if you've got the money I would go
for the pro however using that parallax
of parallax effect and be able to zoom
in and on an object or being able to get
closer to an object without physically
moving the drone closer is a huge
advantage because it's less obtrusive
both of these drones are very quiet much
quieter than the Maverick Pro however
getting really close you don't always
want to have a wide angle so having that
zoom you can shoot from a distance this
is gonna be great for event
photographers cinematographers who shoot
weddings and other things like that I
would get the zoom but overall if you
want the best image quality and the best
video quality get the Mavic to pro

videos on the Mavic 2 Pro and the
Maverick to zoom in the meantime I'm
