    I’ve had a few drones that I rushed out and bought when I first got into dji, I’ve flown gliders and quad copters for years before I moved to dji.
    As I got older I sold all my dji drones and moved onto other hobbies.
    After about 5 years without flying I’ve decided to get back into the hobby,
    This drone seems to tick all the boxes,

    Great video. I had a issue with the first Air3 I received with noise and chromatic aberration. I sent it back and they sent me a new one. After discussions with DJI they acknowledged there was a problem with noise which I am Glade that you were honest about. However, they did say they are working on it. With the latest firmware update there is some help but still not the best. However I downloaded Tooaz denoise and now the images are 100% better. Yes its a great drone. The battery life allows for so much more opportunities. Thank you again for an honest video.😊

      It is crap more so with 48meg images. 12meg not so much an issue but still happens. What pisses me off according to DJI the images are better than the Air2. I shoot bracketed to get as much dynamic range as possible. Been doing this for 15 years.

    Happy to find your video, great cloud shots! Also you mentioned about X-S20. I'm looking for to buy Air 3 and X-S20 but if both tools I'm wondering if it's not better to take Mini 3 Pro and Fujifilm X-S20. Anyway two cameras and batteries are game changers I guess. The only better things about Mini 3 Pro are vertical video and size/weight.
    Do you recommend paying extra 230 USD for RC controller?

    • @tobiasgvenus
      @tobiasgvenus  Рік тому +1

      The controller this comes with is fantastic, I'm not sure you'd need the extra. Mini 3 Pro + XS20 would be a fantastic little kit which would keep it really light but the Air 3 is so much more capable for not much more cost. Guess it depends on your budget/weight needs!

    The images were superb! what a fantastic video man! I'm in doubt between the classic and the air 3. The classic for the hasselblad camera and the air 3 for the 70mm lens... do you think the 3x zoom of the hasselblad camera is acceptable for use on social networks?

    • @BlairAir
      @BlairAir Рік тому +3

      Certainly, but by the same reasoning both caneras on Air 3 are superb for Social Media. The Hasselblad is fantastic, and overkill if your not doing Pro work and even then only when demanded. See Air 3 reviews by Jake Sloan, Original Dobo and Quickass Tutorials- all using it professionally. I have Mavic 3 Pro, Mini 3 Pro, Air 2S abd Air 3. Thinking about selling the 3 Pro, even with the outstanding Hasselblad. Overkill. Plus Air 3 best flight times of any DJI Product to date, and faster Ascend/Descend at 10 m/s than any DJI Drone including Inspire 3. Air 3 is Goldilocks Perfect. Except photos. Great, but not ots best feature.

  • @BlairAir
    @BlairAir Рік тому +1

    Very impressed ĵwith DJI'S "ALL AROUND DRONE"; the Air 3 - if not that tagline. A few bug fixes and this will be THE tool for creators whose output is primarily UA-cam & social media. Air 3 is 80%+ Mavic 3 at 50% of the price. Wide Angle lens for Mavic 3 Pro cost me😢🎉 $179. Air 3? $59. Same story with ND Filters, batteries, etc.
    Bickering! regarding sensor SIZE, while interesting, misses the primary reason DJI used a matched pair of sensors.
    By doing so, both Air 3 cameras provide:
    ALL camera shooting modes (except panorama), all color modes & all Focus Track modes on both cameras. ALL flight modes and autonomous features, Mastershots/Quickshots/ Hyperlapse and a brilliant implementation of portrait/vertical shooting work at 1x/3X. All we need is the 3X programmable in Waypoints!
    Certainly not perfect. But for the UA-cam and Social media creator, show me a more "all around" capable drone. Go ahead. I'll wait 😂

The new better 04 connection makes me feel better and the 3x lens is awsome. You can really zoom in with it. Not to mention it's so much more stable on windy days + the obstacles avoidance is awsome.
