I got an email from the dji website saying that the mavic air 2 was released and I immediately looked for a review and I am so glad that you made one already
Saying "48MP is amazing, way better than any other drones in the DJI lineup" without any discussion of sensor size or image quality seems pretty deliberately deceitful or ignorant coming from a photography company... Other reviews of the actual image quality have said the 48MP mode is JPG only and the stills are way softer than 12MP DNG.
Even as a hobbyist flyer I don’t see getting rid of my Mavic Pro, but the Air 2 adds a lot of fun and at $799 it’s a game- changer. I can see using Rocket a lot, especially in the mountains. Thanks for pumping me up, brother. An old guy in Colorado.
Hey! Thanks for the review. Just a few questions for you please: - How's the noise? I remember the mavic air 1 was horrible compared to the mavic pro 1... - Do you still have those issues where it asks you to calibrate the drone every time you take it out?
Looks like an epic upgrade from the Mavic Air - which I've been using on the road since it launched! Stoked to get some epic slow mo aerial footage on my adventures 🎉
It has 4k 60 fps and 34 mins flying time, which are even better than the much more expensive and bigger Mavic 2 Pro. From my point of view, this is the best DJI drone for average people like me.
AWESOME VIDEO! Subscribed for sure! As well as sent to my buddies... So, I just purchased the Mavic 2 Zoom + Fly More Kit two weeks ago. I can still return it. I am curious if I should return the Zoom and purchase this Air 2? I am a backpacker / hiker and portability is huge for me... However, it's not like the Zoom is THAT big anyway. I am curious if you believe the air 2 is an UPGRADE to the Zoom even though its CHEAPER?! Would love your take.
Shane Moffo Well what did you end up doing? I had a chance on getting a used zoom with the fly more package, for the same price of the basic kit MA2. Ended up going with the MA2 due to the new hardware. Should be here in 2 days!
Thanks for this video! I was so on the fence with this and the pro. I'm a professional photographer on a budget, but really wanted the ability to adjust the aperture. Knowing that the camera on the Air 2 can accept ND and CPL filters, I'll be buying the Air 2 with the confidence it'll give me what I'm looking for. I love taking landscapes around Kentucky, and am really looking forward to seeing a new dimension in my photo & video work with the use of a drone.
10:38 - 10:59 wow that 4K is jumpy! Look at the mountains behind. Is this frame dropping? Due to slow microSD? or 4K60 only? Or can it be fixed with a slow shutter + ND filter?
I've been flying a holy stone hs700 for a couple years now, modified with a GoPro in the works. But there's one thing I've really missed, a gimbal. Also apparently the mavic air 2 has some kickass obstacle detection and avoidance system. Being in an area that's congested with trees, I have a feeling something like that will worth the money. and the $933 fly more package actually makes it well worth it seeing the price of the individual batteries. The price seems right, I'm strongly thinking about it. This video certainly will help in my purchasing decision!
I just bought the Mavic mini a couple of weeks ago, and today I saw they announced this. So I returned my Mavic mini to Best Buy a couple hours ago and told them it had gimbal issues. Cant wait to get my Mavic Air 2 now. lol
@@minglnie4801 when it first came out it wasn't. It really packed a punch for its price and size. Yeah the tech is outdated now, but isn't all tech? That's like saying the Samsung Galaxy s9 or the IPhone 10 is a kids toy.
@@marcanthonystorm can I ask u another question ? Because I dont know where you are...are you allowed to fly this anywhere in canada or America? I travel to both countries back and forth...
Understand - as of 28 Apr 2020 - the ‘other flying things’ detect and warning feature has not made it into the Air 2 shipping into Europe. Apparently it will be added, later. The virus outbreak has affected production. (I saw this this morning on a BBC UK tech article) I’m interested to buy myself a drone, so found this review very informative. Loved the analysis, and particularly the comparison with upper and lower spec drones in the range from Mavic. ‘ND filter’ term might puzzle new viewers not into photography. It is a Neutral Density filter. Looks grey. Cuts the light entering the camera lens by a fixed amount, and you can buy different ND filters, cutting the light by different amounts. So what? You would use one in very bright conditions - particularly as this review mentions the lens aperture (size of the hole in the lens on the drone’s camera) cannot be changed for this drone model. This will increase the camera’s exposure time, which can improve how a movement in a scene looks. Right ... off to look at the Mavic Mini and Pro reviews ...
Hi! Thank you for this great first test! Actually, I have one important concern about this new Mavic Air 2, which is about Active Track function. I got the Mavic Air 1 and I have tried a few times to use it while skiing and use the Active Track function. The problem is that the active track does not want to follow you down, and the drone is staying at the same altitude, which is as the end completely useless. So my question is, will this new drone and this new Active Track 3.0 be improved to finally make the job while using it with Active Track on an activity where the subject is changing its level up or down ?! I have not seen that in your video, since you were using the active track but moving on a flat ground. This big improvment would actually surely makes me go for this new drone! Thanks for your reply!
While the Active track is not near perfect yet, it is much better that the Air 1. It locks onto your subject much better and it keeps it in shot much better, and with APAS 3.0 it avoids obstacles much better. Still, I would not completely rely on the Active Track and sensors
When it comes to any photo or video gear, I really like watching Moment reviews, it’s not like other channels that do it for the 10 min. mark only. This reviews are really informative. Thanks moment team!
You’re welcome moment team! Just waiting for the quarantine laws to be lifted so that my aunt can bring the gear that I ordered from your shop. I’m from the Philippines 🇵🇭 by the way 😊 kinda expensive but I think it’s worth it. Can’t wait to make videos using the anamorphic lens 🤤
You need to upload in 60 fps, the video looks choppy when you have a fast-moving drone/target. 24 fps is more cinematic but only for slower shots. 5:39 may have been taken in 4K 60fps but you uploaded it in 30 or 24.
This is out DJI keeps getting me, went from Mavic Pro to Mavic 2 Pro because of the 1" sensor, Active Track 3.0 and Ocusync 2.0. Now they added 4k 60FPS to this Mavic Air 2... Honestly, I'll hold out till Mavic 3 Pro because from my experience, I really like the log profiles, adjustable aperture, shutter speed, and the SIDE SENSORS, very important. But yooo that 60fps, 120fps and 240fps so tempting....
as a photographer i have the mini because its awesome and small but this doesnt look much bigger. but the image quality is ideal for me and the tracking features and the fact it wont hit things i am upgrading
Great review. Very thoughtful presentation. You are very thorough in your comments without being tedious. If I can offer some constructive criticism though it would be to refrain from using the phrase "I'm not going to lie" so often. It makes you sound guilty. Cheers man! Loved it. Can't wait for my Mavic Air 2 to arrive!
Pretty cool product. I still think I prefer the Mavic 2 Pro but really good value for sure and the range is insane!! Plus the new controller looks nice. Can't wait to see what they come up with for the Mavic 3 Pro :).
@@JonSmith-fc2mm I still think he used High shutter speed like 1/8000 or so, when he should have 1/48 ( in conjuction with 24 fps video ) to make the video "smoother" (Hight shutter speed = less blur, lower shutter speed = more blur) But i could be wrong :)
I think it's actually from all the different framerates mixed within the video. It's typically referred to as "Fame Interpolation" and this is something that has to be addressed in whatever software you're using for editing the video and is something that seems to be often missed. For example if you take a 24FPS video and turn it into a 30FPS video, without proper frame interpolation it's going to be choppy because now the frames don't match up
in the middle of nowhere with an orange stool... Thank you for your time & review.. making me think about which drone(s) best fit my needs. Not mentioned here but I heard the smart controller from the Mavic 2 pro can also be used on the new Mavic Air 2.. which is awesome... Love the location you're in... Looks like an Ancient ruin....
The problem with DJi is that if a feature isn't in the product when it launches then I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for it they have a bad rep adding user requested stuff because they are focused on selling the next thing won't be making it in a years time anyway mentally. People are still waiting for inverted tilt wheel controls lol
Awesome video...wonder if Starlink Satellites will cause any issues with drones ? Have a week old Mavic Mini and hope to move up once the mini is figured out to the big sisters.✌
Is this all new footage from the Mavic Air 2? Couldn't help but notice the Mavic 2 Pro cameo at 11:07 (side sensors & huge hasselblad silver gimble)..... so hence the question.
woowo excellent reviews, @dji really makes great drones, it’s a dream one day to be able to have a drone, if I hadn’t been unemployed, last year 2 years ago, I managed to stabilize family expenses and debts, and everything was to go on the right path, suddenly in February this year I was out of work, and I had already stabilized my debts, I had nothing, and suddenly, everything went backward, again with divided expenses and without making money, goodbye drone, but a few years of being able to stabilize, maybe in 2 years from now I can get one, the dreams for some people are really difficult to realize .... congratulations on the excellent video I love the channel, from Portugal StaySafe.
can you tell me if the drone during the active track mode follow you even if you're going downhill for example when you're skiing? the last mavic had the problem that the drone was staying all the time at the initial altitude and didn't follow the subject that was decreasing his elevation, the drone followed the subject only in the case he increase the elevation. Does mavic air 2 overcome this problem?? Thank a lot
It uses Fly instead of Go, which means no crystalsky, no litchi, .....just nothing else but itself. you may say it’s a bigger mini, but certainly not a smaller 2 pro.
Looked like a good place to do some range or some battery life testing...not to mention the pano/sphere (they are there I assume unlike on the Mini) modes ? Disappointing...
I'm in love! I've been thinking about buying the Mini as my first drone since it came out but I do think the extra cost for this one is totally worth it. The footage at 5:39 looked a bit choppy, is that because of high shutter rate to keep exposure down or something else?
The Mavic Mini actually is much better than when it first came out. It now has manual aperture controls and white balance with the last two updates and throw an ND filter on there and it looks pretty damn good. I use the hell out of mine. I use it for indoor overhead shots because of it size.
@@BrandonTalbot Yeah I saw that like 30 minutes after writing my comment! Thats an awesome addition to the value of the Mini. Somewhat strange this (Air 2) doesn't have manual shutter but if the Mini got it, maybe this will one day too :)
Thanks so much for the review! Do you think that is possible to have a DNG 12MP test? Because the 48MP shots are really grainier at 100% zoom. Too much for a real use in photography. What do you think?
Great video thank you very much. I have pretty much every one of DJI's drones including the original air and this looks like it is the best of all worlds all the way around. It is definitely an upgrade over the pro 2 in many ways in my opinion. I just purchased it ! I am really hoping it works with my VR goggles. I spoke to DJI in chat and I was not getting a definitive answer. We will find out.
I congratulate you. You go to the point, talk fast but clear and don't try to be a clown to try and personalize your evaluation. Keep it brief, to the point and highlight the features and potential of the drone (and don't just show off your videos). You do that. Keep to it. You are the best!
I was going to go with the Mini 2, but I am a total sucker for the 4K @ 60 fps. Plus the front & back sensors (this is my first drone and I'm not big on ramming it into anything while getting used to flying, haha). Great video and examples used! Can't wait for it to get here
Let me guess, the zoom version will be coming out shortly. Yep, I like the new controller. Fantastic drone. I'll have to sell something to get this. :D
Im still curious on why DJI Keeps making drones that wont work with their best creation the DJI Smart controller? I love the controller and wish the MAVIC MINI and this Mavic air 2 would have went with it.
If you have any questions, leave em in the comments and we will get back to you! 👇✌️
How much will this drone? 🤔
Am I going to be disappointed by the 1/2" sensor?
Will the remote controller fit an iPad mini 5 in the clamp/mount where u put ur phone??
Is there any kind of obstacle avoidance and if so how does it compare to the higher-end models
Are you guys coming out with an anamorphic lens for this drone?

Thank you so much for this excellent analysis and review. I just bought one!
I noticed the Fly more package comes with nd filters! That right there alone made the fly more package more appealing for me!
Wasnt fly more pack always more appealing?
Houston International Media, totally agree!

It's a great upgrade from the original Air
@@moment the downsides I can see are the jump in weight and the size of the controller though. What are you thoughts?
I've got the Air as well and thinking about this upgrade. Especially for the improved tracking and longer battery life.

Makes me excited for what they're going to come up with for the Mavic 3. This tech is evolving stupid fast.
Ugghh but when?!! haha
100% thinking the same thing after reviewing this!
My guess would be 8k sensors, software upgrades and maybe an electronics overhaul for more flight time
@@giantasparagus I feel like the M3 is going to come out late this year, probably like November/December

I think he’s shooting in 24fps so that’s probably why. 60fps is super smooth
Because he was shooting in 24fps, i think quickshots don't support 4k60
I'm havin trouble with choppy footage, it seems like your movements have to be super slow otherwise the footage gets choppy very easily.

Did you just order the mavic air 2 or the mavic air 2 fly more combo?
I just got it as well with the fly more combo
TakeFlight NYC .... me too now I’m waiting for it in the mail...
the waiting is the hardest part.....😃 I got the combo ...😃
@@greysky65 Here they gave me 17days to ship it! HAHAHAH' What about yours? OOOH the waiting is cruel
It went live at 8:30pm Central time... My Order Number timestamp is 8:31pm. LOL! I am so anxious to get my hands on this! The wait is so cruel.
Looked like a good place to do some range or some battery life testing...not to mention the pano/sphere (they are there I assume unlike on the Mini) modes ? Disappointing...
I'm in love! I've been thinking about buying the Mini as my first drone since it came out but I do think the extra cost for this one is totally worth it. The footage at 5:39 looked a bit choppy, is that because of high shutter rate to keep exposure down or something else?
Yep, ND filters will fix that.
@@huntstyle Are those available yet? Pretty important since fixed aperture.
ND filters come with the Fly More package.
The Mavic Mini actually is much better than when it first came out. It now has manual aperture controls and white balance with the last two updates and throw an ND filter on there and it looks pretty damn good. I use the hell out of mine. I use it for indoor overhead shots because of it size.
@@BrandonTalbot Yeah I saw that like 30 minutes after writing my comment! Thats an awesome addition to the value of the Mini. Somewhat strange this (Air 2) doesn't have manual shutter but if the Mini got it, maybe this will one day too :)
Superb 🔥🔥
This is a perfect upgrade from phantom 3 standard. Liked air too but short range and fly time
This is the air 2. Do you mean "air too"?
u can buy like a $60 that does same stuff as mavic mini on amazon...
@@elmalloc lol yes
Thanks so much for the review!
Do you think that is possible to have a DNG 12MP test?
Because the 48MP shots are really grainier at 100% zoom. Too much for a real use in photography. What do you think?
The shots are beautiful, but 24fps hurt my eyes! But still a good video :)
Steptoe Secures ITC Win for Autel in Patent Dispute with DJI
Great hands on. Shots look awesome
Thanks Lex!
@@moment Whats the video location ?
Great video thank you very much. I have pretty much every one of DJI's drones including the original air and this looks like it is the best of all worlds all the way around. It is definitely an upgrade over the pro 2 in many ways in my opinion. I just purchased it !
I am really hoping it works with my VR goggles. I spoke to DJI in chat and I was not getting a definitive answer. We will find out.
When i can buy it?!
right from our website :) momnt.io/2VFgAJw
Did you order one already?
Is there a height limit to the drone? Where it physically wont let you go beyond a certain altitude because of regulations? Or is it up to the user
If anyone here has a million dollars and wants to do something good, please get me this.
lol it's not that expensive.
@@moment ik. I'll just have to wait a bit so I can get it though. I'm totally going to get it though!
If it’s not that expensive, can you send me one? I’ll make sure to send you amazing pictures I take with it.
Matthew Butler u tried
@@matthewbutler9750 lol
I congratulate you. You go to the point, talk fast but clear and don't try to be a clown to try and personalize your evaluation. Keep it brief, to the point and highlight the features and potential of the drone (and don't just show off your videos). You do that. Keep to it. You are the best!
Please do a range test
Thanks for the review. I just pre-ordered one!
How about mentioning that the Mavic Air 2 does NOT support any DJI Goggles yet despite featuring Ocusync?
Don’t know if it’s you tube but the compression of the drone footage at 4K seems pretty average.
I was going to go with the Mini 2, but I am a total sucker for the 4K @ 60 fps. Plus the front & back sensors (this is my first drone and I'm not big on ramming it into anything while getting used to flying, haha). Great video and examples used! Can't wait for it to get here
The Mini 2 can recard everything in the rear while RTH, wich is a good feature don’t know why it’s not mentioned.Crow
I'm curious. Mavic Air 2 or Mavic Pro?
Looks great except for its video not being smooth during the panning. I can't use that for my customer's videos. Nice for a fun drone.
Is it Possible to use my mini iPod with this controller ? I’m SUPER EXCITED about getting one .
Let me guess, the zoom version will be coming out shortly. Yep, I like the new controller. Fantastic drone. I'll have to sell something to get this. :D
This is a good video to do shots every time pro is said
Hey moment team, i hope you will have you iPhone SE 2020 in depth review with your lenses!
Very good
The Mavic 2 zoom is also able to shoot at 48 Megapixels🙃 Very nice video!
Im still curious on why DJI Keeps making drones that wont work with their best creation the DJI Smart controller? I love the controller and wish the MAVIC MINI and this Mavic air 2 would have went with it.
Any else notice the jumpy skipy jerky background during the orbit at 10:35
Im guessing he filmed and exported the edited film in different fps.
Did You edit the footage, or is It what You got right out of the drone?
