The only thing that’s Pro about Mavic Pro is it’s name and serious aerial photographer will tell you the same.
And if you think Pro has a better camera than Air your delusional and you don’t know much about the camera on the air.
Yes longer battery better signal, but MavAir has plenty to make up for this. Mavic Pro was born to be portable it comes in a poor second to the air in this, it has a dated camera which is impossible to use unless you have really good light, it’s tap to focus is totally rubbish and it’s price New was almost twice the price of MavAir and now that it’s almost the same price that’s about right.
So first you go after me for supposedly rubbishing forum members, and yet here you are, out of the blue, calling someone delusional because you think the MA is superior to the MP/MPP???
Talk about being a hypocrite!
In case you didn't know, the MP/MPP camera still has some advantages over the MA, such as:
- Auto-focus instead of fixed focus
- Larger aperture for more light input and shallower DOF (f/2.2 vs MA's f/2.8)
- Slightly larger overall sensor MP (12.35MP vs 12MP); renders slightly better end-result in bright light, but a bit lower in dim light due to higher pixel density
And the MP/MPP itself has other advantages in terms of flight, speed (P-mode speed higher than MA, lower S-mode than MA), better battery life, and others.
The MA might have taken the lead in many areas from the MP/MPP, but not in all, and the MP/MPP is still a very solid drone.
In terms of the Mbit rating of the 4K data, yes there is a slight drop in the amount of resolved detail due to the added compression, as those extra 40Mbit/s do help to retain the finer details that otherwise can be destroyed by compression, but even compared the P4Pro with it's larger 1" CMOS 20MP sensor, in bright daylight conditions, the loss is neglegeble, and only becomes a factor in cloudy weather or flying at night, which in many countries is illegal, even with some classes of pilot permits/licenses.
And in reality, the advantage of the 1" CMOS on the P4Pro is not actually the amount of detail it can resolve, as much as the dynamic range it can capture. So if you're flying out over the ocean in golden hour without a polarizer, the P4Pro will just murder the MPP/MA's. But if you put a CPL onto the MPP or MA, even they can still give the P4Pro a run for it's money for dynamic range capture; the amount of blown out highlights wouldn't be much to write home about.
