Filming in 4k or even 5k then cropping is really makes it possible to zoom in later. I prefer 2k60 but you can't really crop zoom too much after though better than 1080p.

Makes you consider that shooting with the Mavic 2 Zoom at 48mm optical at 4k30 should be better for analysis though it's only a smaller sensor.

It would be nice to have a ready to go case where everything is ready to go just have to turn it on. It would definitely be bad for storage but when you are in situations where every second counts, it matters having such a case. This could make sense for the Mini 3 as it's small.

In a rush you can risk snapping off a drone arm.

Maybe DJI should make a drone like the DJI FPV in the Mini 3 size where the arms don't fold and is high-performance so it can get to places at 60mph instead of 46mph or less due to wind.

In the futures of war and reconnaissance, if HEMP doesn't take out GPS satellites and such, drones would be as important as NVGs and Thermals in all combat including indoors. It has proven so many times to be effective in Ukraine. Lives are being wiped out by the assistance of drones with ease.

Also should consider making a new Mavic 2 Zoom with 8k24 for the sake of being able to crop the after footage.

i think drones will play an important role and become part of standard equipment for spotters going forward.

I second that.
