DJI Launches Mavic 2 Aerial Drone

DJI, the giant in the commercial drone manufacturing released the latest iteration of the successful DJI Mavic line. DJI Released 2 drones the DJI Mavic 2 Pro and the DJI Mavic 2 Zoom.

Since acquiring a majority stake in Hasselblad, DJI already leverages the legendary camera manufacturers technology and integrates them in the latest line of drones. While tech companies often cut deals to put the names of camera brands on their products, it doesn’t always mean there’s an appreciable bump in image quality. DJI’s engagement with the camera brand is more likely to be a collaboration rather than just a badge for marketing. We will have to see if the this translates to a real-world improvement of videos and photos.
Quality versus Flexibility
Choosing the Mavic 2 Pro over the Zoom is about making a choice on based on the use of the content creator. It has a 1-inch, 20-megapixel CMOS sensor — the same size found in the company’s more expensive Phantom 4 Pro drone — and a bright, variable f2.8-f11 aperture. There are pro color profiles for video, like 10-bit Dlog-M, which will make it easier for editors to manipulate the footage to their liking after shooting. It also supports 4K 10-bit HDR.

While the Mavic 2 Zoom is more about versatility. the drone is equipped with a smaller 1/2.3-inch sensor, but it has the flexibility to zoom from a wide 24mm view to a slightly more telephoto 48mm perspective on the fly. Although the Mavic 2 Zoom delivers a smaller 12-megapixel photo, though there’s a “Super Resolution” mode where the drone will take nine photos and stitch them into a larger 48-megapixel image. The “dolly zoom” mode that can mimic the popular technique used by cinematographers and offers more epic shots and expanding the things creators can do with the drones.
