I've watched a lot of spark reviews in the last two weeks. Yours was the first I have seen by someone using it as I aspire to do rather than just being a geek about it as a piece of tech. Just a lovely thing to watch as well as being informative. New subscriber here!
I’ve seen this video and decided to see it again. You’ve made me really proud of owning and flying a Spark. The saturation an even exposure levels are magnificent. It truly feels like I’m watching a Hollywood Feature Film. You can’t get it any more cinematic than this for a 1080p 30fps fixed profile. It truly is “The Singer not The Song” Thx, for sharing this beautiful video.
All of the spark reviews I've watched have talked about how quiet it is, but your review is the first to actually show it by recording good audio even with the drone right next to you! Definitely looks like a fun drone! :)
By far the best spark review I've watched and I have watched a lot. Some several times. Your style is honest and real world. You don't bash on the sparks negatives. And your footage is superb. Thank you so much. New sub and will check out your back catalogue. 👍👍
@lilcreature You've just stumbled upon a master. Phillip's a top 3 "celebrity" in the digital video industry IMO. He was one of the DSLR video pioneers back in the 5Dmk2 days....2008 or so. He solo-films an incredible travel show called the Wonder List on CNN (still running). So basically...nice find!
a few years ago we were just filmmakers. today we are drone pilots. it is still amazing which chances these flying cameras offer to tell stories from a different angle.
SIR I've seen countless reviews up until now but THIS REVIEW WAS AWESOME!!! Entire review shot on Spark, awesome cinematic footage, perfect perfect perfect. We actually don't need the "get propeller guards for safety, bla bla bla" A whole video that shows what Spark can actually do! Thank you very much and please keep up the good work!
This video made the decision for me and I bought a Spark. I felt like I was watching a beautifully shot nature program with perfect narration. I watch this video often with headphones.
it's a very nice review and i like video close to the ground, exploring nature with human eyes...... High definition video and perfect exposure doesn't mean "good" video. Nice toy for mature pilot. What i like for Spark? A stronger, more reliable, more stable connection between RC and drone.
Philip you may have discovered this shortly after your video. If you wish to palm land in a mode such as Tripod, just place your hand under it as per Gesture Mode, and then pull down on the left joystick and it will land in your hand and shut down.
This was a very well done review. Almost thought I was watching a David Attenborough documentary. This is also the review that makes me put a tick in the checkbox for the buy.
But an OTG cable mate, it will allow you to use a data connection between your controller & phone rather then if you use the wifi which can disconnect.
I just picked up a Spark with the fly more and googles pack. I couldn't agree with you more on your review; you are spot on! Great video and thanks for such and honest review. I'd also like to mention that I love the idea that you did a review while using the very product you were reviewing.
Loved this video, your impressions sold me. I was going to get a Mavic but this being my first drone and really only for hobby flying and getting videos and photos for me and the family I think this is perfect. Thanks
Phillip, i really liked your video and i liked you doing it! I have been a photographer for 55 years and a flyer for 2 years. What you get in a small camera that fly's is not bad. Thanks for video Cheers!
You have one of the best Spark reviews. I liked the way you just jumped right in and experimented what COULD be achieved with it vs. what it can’t do. I have one and what you said about keeping it close is spot on. It is extremely irresponsible to throw these things in the sky and fly 3-5 miles out of line of sight.
Thank you for another terrific video by Phillip Bloom. Phil, I'm one of your biggest fans, and this was especially interesting, partly because you talked about manual settings and got into some technique about flying. I've always felt like your kind of the "every mans" video guy, because you get so involved in what your talking about. I'm also glad that you reviewed the Spark because it's so much more affordable for the "average guy". Love your shots, and I'm knocked out with the video quality. It may look clearer than my hand held Canon AH1 Hd camera. Not bad for the price you pay for the Spark. I'm impressed, and thank you again for taking your time to do this. Sincerely, Marc Trainor.
I love that your reviews are comprehensive (and long) but still genuinely interesting. A lot of other reviewers using the Spark didn't have the remote, and they declared the drone utter garbage right away, which seemed hasty in my opinion. Video quality looks quite impressive to be honest, despite YT compression. Don't care about gestures, but the palm launch & landing is neat. Lack of profiles is disappointing. Definitely a contender for my next drone purchase. Thanks for the review, Philip!
Bloody good work on this Philip! It paves new ground with this drone to do some really creative stuff! By far the tripod mode shines with this tiny drone. I love it so much!
ok now you're the only one who convince me to buy the Spark! My priority is the driving, size and the price then I'll just use my smart phone for the 4k resolution...thanks
Wow, incredible. I can imagine you doing an almost drone ballet , drone choreography. Doing moves no one has ever seen. I’d love to spend some drone time with you. I have this drone and the Mavic air. But you clearly understand this really well. Thanks for showing this. Ps i can not imagine why this video has any dislikes ?
You did a really nice job with this!!!! It's was far more than the usual review and I appreciated the little "hack" to start filming before a palm-launch. Seeing the results it seems it might be possible to change that in firmware. The idea of walking it along a tight area in tripod mode was a great tip. Thanks so much.
Phil... I really enjoyed your review. I've had my Spark for 5 days now (my first drone) and loving it. Bought 6 batteries! I've been unable to find a manual exposure setting for video. ?? So when I head for a bright sky, everything clamps down. Where is it?
Rick Morton tap on the Icon with those slide-buttons(?) And there you have your settings. On the upper Screen Edge are the Buttons "auto" and "M"(Manual). Sorry for the bad English
You also have to be in video mode before you hit those buttons to show the manual settings of video. If your in photo mode and hit those buttons, i believe it takes you into manual mode for photos.
Excellent video and you showed that the spark can take very good video and go into some very tight spots. Loved the footage of you walking around with it so I'll have to go try that out myself tomorrow. Thanks!
i like the spark ease of flight 1080p if fine its small and costs a lot less...thats why it be seen as the best small drone out there now...and your footage really show how well it does in tight places ie in the woods
Very good review. I just got my Spark 2 days ago. I already own a Phantom 3 but i definitely have to get accustomed to the battery life! On the first day the thing suddenly wanted to rush to the base that i had left some time ago. I tried to cut the sequence and that ended with the drone hitting the trees in 25mtrs/80ft height, shredding leaves and falling down. The drone fell on earth, the battery was ripped off but nothing really happened. It´s still in almost pristine conditions... well done DJI and I REALLY have to look up tutorials like yours ;-) BTW good hint with the recording of the audio!!!
Great vid, covered everything and your opinion regarding the spark just justifies my love for the little fella. Great flying BTW, lovely footage. I have been flying the spark for a long time and it has been a great tool for learning how to fly. Cheers
Looking forward to sharing your experience. Great video btw. Not talking so much about your review as much as the demonstration of your creative skills. Great job all around.
First video of yours that I've chanced upon, and I love your relaxed style (as opposed to some of the frantic or over the top style of some others). I'm on the verge of getting my first done and this will almost certainly be the Spark. Thanks for the valuable info. Subscribed.
Thanks Philip for great review! Footage really looked great on my TV... the small size really is a great argument for this + price...as they say... 'the Drone you have with you is much more useful than the Drone back in the truck!' ... as you've mentioned though...when you look at foldable carry bag size.. It's not that different to the Mavic. To spend more now on a Mavic.. or just be very happy with what was but a dream several years ago... that is the question! Thanks:)
Like many people before, I thought this was an awesome video review. Something different compared to the norm and flies the spark in exactly the way I would be looking to if I got one. Have a mavic at the minute but this has tempted me! 👍👍
Oh my god, thank god I saw your vimeo link, cause i was thinking all the time "man, that quality sucks a little". But on vimeo it really is something else. I think is good quality and price, and really thinking to get it. Thank you Philip for the review, very useful.
Thanks for what I have telling beginners to go for if you're not in the business of filmmaking. Its so much fun to play with, I have the P4P is great but like you said it's so much fun that's makes it a great drone nevertheless.. never been any fanboy of any products until DJI.. Cheers!
A very enjoyable review, thanks. Presumably you know that the phone can be connected by cable and the WiFi turned off. The camera itself has digital stabilisation of yaw, and because this uses some of the sensor, this is why it won't film 4k.
absolutely awesome review. shooting the whole thing on a spark and shooting Sparks with Sparks is awesome. the whole video looks awesome. mine comes in two days and I cannot wait to fly it! really wish it was able to take raw photos. maybe sometime in the future dji will add a little more capability to the settings and we can squeeze the absolute most out of a small package. I believe it's got the power, capability to shoot raw image and do video at 24 fps. but what do I know anyways. plus if they give it to us now it won't be such a big deal next year when they update the hardware a little bit and give us those settings so we have to buy a new one. ha
I don't know what has happened to the compression here. It looks nothing like my upload.You can see it much better on Vimeo at vimeo.com/224837847 where you can also download it.
I only found your videos thru a comment on another I was watching, Glad I did, very well done, Thank you sir, look forward to future observations, now I must binge-watch the rest LOL
Thank you for this Philip!! The video image in the shots with relatively lower detail and slower camera motion really looks pretty ok I think. Such as your beauty shots starting at 16:16, very nice!
So nice to watch your review and at the end to see you were not mugged, robbed or even worse (like would most probably happen here)... you still have the "boy" in you to be excited about a new toy! A very honest review too! Thank you... and do test the Inspire 2 with the X5s - you'll be surprised by the image quality! Regard!
the HDR does not well. what a pity there s no sensor in the back and everywhere (how about the detection of the electricity cables on the roof etc). and how about the camera in the darkness ? the day I have a smaller drone as alarm, motion detection by zones, 100% waterproof and weatherproof with 3g SIM card and WiFi, double ways communication, face recognition etc so I ll use the drone for my holiday, secure my stuff at the beach, for the house etc. wonderful video !!
Wow, this is different! Well done, I enjoyed this unusual take on reviewing the Spark... :-) And I was on the edge of my seat when you squeezed the Spark through that V-notch, almost hitting the branches... ^_^
Great review. I don't get though why you slate the image quality, it looked fine to me. Also only a very small percentage of people actually watch you tube at higher resolutions than 1080p so why is it such a big deal that it's not 4K?
11:28 That loss of signal, solved with the OTG cable. I've taken my Spark well over 1500m with no signal loss just using that OTG cable.
add parabolics as well. You can just send it far
BEEN waiting for this! The only guy on UA-cam who's opinion I trust.
The best review for sure.
Better just check the DJI Spark in the DJI Store, it's so cheap right now: sites.google.com/site/sparkdjiorder/
I've watched a lot of spark reviews in the last two weeks. Yours was the first I have seen by someone using it as I aspire to do rather than just being a geek about it as a piece of tech. Just a lovely thing to watch as well as being informative. New subscriber here!
I’ve seen this video and decided to see it again. You’ve made me really proud of owning and flying a Spark. The saturation an even exposure levels are magnificent. It truly feels like I’m watching a Hollywood Feature Film. You can’t get it any more cinematic than this for a 1080p 30fps fixed profile.
It truly is “The Singer not The Song”
Thx, for sharing this beautiful video.
One of the few people on UA-cam that I actually think is genuine and I trust .
thank you
puds boi yeah. I agree with you.
All of the spark reviews I've watched have talked about how quiet it is, but your review is the first to actually show it by recording good audio even with the drone right next to you! Definitely looks like a fun drone! :)
I agree with you Matt, Philip's use of the Lav mic lets us see just how quiet it is, and how much fun it is.
Jep
Better just check the DJI Spark in the DJI Store, it's so cheap right now: sites.google.com/site/sparkdjiorder/
I suggest you get your DJI Spark here sites.google.com/site/MySparkDrone it's a lot cheaper
Thanks for posting this video
Filming Spark review using Spark... this blew my mind!
Maciej Kobus way better than having someone talk for 10 minutes to then show 30 seconds of video from the actual product.
I now want every drone review to be filmed this way ;)
Jeff O show some respect
Loolololo!
Lol
By far the best spark review I've watched and I have watched a lot. Some several times. Your style is honest and real world. You don't bash on the sparks negatives. And your footage is superb. Thank you so much. New sub and will check out your back catalogue. 👍👍

He solo-films an incredible travel show called the Wonder List on CNN (still running). So basically...nice find!
Best Spark review I've seen thus far. Thank you Philip for the wonderful (almost said awesome) evaluation.
When did we start talking about "only" 1080p?
streams of consciousness in 2013? 😊
jees that's about when I got my first 1080p TV
I just bought it and can’t wait to start film with it for my UA-cam videos
a few years ago we were just filmmakers. today we are drone pilots. it is still amazing which chances these flying cameras offer to tell stories from a different angle.
the shots through the woods were the best drone images I've ever seen..... very nicely done... impressed someone hard to impress.
Fabulous footage. Goes to show it's all about creativity and talent. Not about hardware.
Best Spark review I saw so far! Let's pray for DJI to let us adjust that awful sharpness in photos and videos
the best drone ever, Ive owned it for almost a year and still using it extensively.
10:26 that's some impressive Jedi mind tricks there Julian!
SIR I've seen countless reviews up until now but THIS REVIEW WAS AWESOME!!! Entire review shot on Spark, awesome cinematic footage, perfect perfect perfect. We actually don't need the "get propeller guards for safety, bla bla bla" A whole video that shows what Spark can actually do! Thank you very much and please keep up the good work!
Philip, You can connect the controller with a hard wire to your mobile and it is more secure as well. Great video though!
genius!! if you're search "dji spark video test" this is the one!! best full review!! love it!!
These shots in the forest are just amazing! The paths you flew are beautiful
This video made the decision for me and I bought a Spark. I felt like I was watching a beautifully shot nature program with perfect narration. I watch this video often with headphones.

Great review, thank you! Just bought the Spark and I'm a beginner so I hope I don't lose it. Great tips and a very realistic demonstration. Cool
You can use USB OTG to connect the controller to your phone/tablet if no one has mentioned it. Good review. Makes me long for a British accent.
Absolutely the best product review I've ever seen. You sir are great.
Best Drone review video so far ! Congrats...
I just picked up a Spark with the fly more and googles pack. I couldn't agree with you more on your review; you are spot on! Great video and thanks for such and honest review. I'd also like to mention that I love the idea that you did a review while using the very product you were reviewing.
you can never go wrong with Philip's quality review! thumbs up 👍👍
I really like how you're using the DJI SPARK. so cool. I'm trying to decide what drone to get
Loved this video, your impressions sold me. I was going to get a Mavic but this being my first drone and really only for hobby flying and getting videos and photos for me and the family I think this is perfect. Thanks
Phillip, i really liked your video and i liked you doing it! I have been a photographer for 55 years and a flyer for 2 years. What you get in a small camera that fly's is not bad. Thanks for video Cheers!
Everything looks great in the hands of a master! Spark does the job.
You have one of the best Spark reviews. I liked the way you just jumped right in and experimented what COULD be achieved with it vs. what it can’t do. I have one and what you said about keeping it close is spot on. It is extremely irresponsible to throw these things in the sky and fly 3-5 miles out of line of sight.
Your footage inspires! Dude, just flip the Spark upside down after grabbing it to kill the motors! Subbed!
Thank you for another terrific video by Phillip Bloom.

This is the best video I ever saw with a drone
I got the combo for a great price and getting ready for it's maiden flight this weekend.. Have four batteries too.. Really enjoyed this review..
Bloody good work on this Philip! It paves new ground with this drone to do some really creative stuff! By far the tripod mode shines with this tiny drone. I love it so much!
ok now you're the only one who convince me to buy the Spark! My priority is the driving, size and the price then I'll just use my smart phone for the 4k resolution...thanks

The review i was searching for... Instead of saying bla bla bla you just show how good is it... Great work brother

Rick Morton tap on the Icon with those slide-buttons(?) And there you have your settings. On the upper Screen Edge are the Buttons "auto" and "M"(Manual).
Sorry for the bad English
You also have to be in video mode before you hit those buttons to show the manual settings of video. If your in photo mode and hit those buttons, i believe it takes you into manual mode for photos.
Fantastic piloting made for some fantastic shots. I really hope to get one of these within the coming months
Best authentic review I have ever seen!!! Good job maaan
I've been having so much fun with it. awesome little drone.
Philip, in case you didn't know you can get a cable to go between phone and controller.
So that will not kill battery as bad.
Beautiful light on this footage! Great clip! Thanks!
Oh my! A lot of work has been put into this. Fantastic review Philip, and thank you!
Great review, Philip.
Love your calming style and the audio.
Also, find your scenes quite inspiring to try out myself...
Thanks for the review man! I own Spark myself and it really is such a fun to fly it! :)
2 reviews in 2 days? Christmas has come in July!
Great video, thanks - my Spark combo pack just been delivered, just about to inbox!! Can't wait to get out and play 😀
Excellent video and you showed that the spark can take very good video and go into some very tight spots. Loved the footage of you walking around with it so I'll have to go try that out myself tomorrow. Thanks!
Hey Philip, are you gonna do a video review of the Mavic Air anytime soon? I really like your reviews :) Thanks
Wow.....Wow.....that was an incredible video!! Great job Mr. Bloom
Really stunning shots already and this was just a review. Great and honest review mister, well done!
Wow... How on earth did you fly those tight shots to the trees... Amazing... Will try this with my Spark... Thanks for the inspiration
Still the best reviewer of camera tech out there.
Awesome review. Love the footage that you took in the forest. Thanks for posting such a helpful and informative video!
one of the best reviews i've seen! can't wait to get my hands on a spark!
i like the spark ease of flight 1080p if fine its small and costs a lot less...thats why it be seen as the best small drone out there now...and your footage really show how well it does in tight places ie in the woods
Very good review, , just bought my spark combo, looking forward too fly it, thanks
perfect ive spent 2 month looking for a review like this , thank u very much
Very good review.
I just got my Spark 2 days ago. I already own a Phantom 3 but i definitely have to get accustomed to the battery life! On the first day the thing suddenly wanted to rush to the base that i had left some time ago.
I tried to cut the sequence and that ended with the drone hitting the trees in 25mtrs/80ft height, shredding leaves and falling down.
The drone fell on earth, the battery was ripped off but nothing really happened. It´s still in almost pristine conditions... well done DJI and I REALLY have to look up tutorials like yours ;-)
BTW good hint with the recording of the audio!!!
watched many spark videos but this one stood out. very cool
Great vid, covered everything and your opinion regarding the spark just justifies my love for the little fella. Great flying BTW, lovely footage. I have been flying the spark for a long time and it has been a great tool for learning how to fly. Cheers
I must say ur piloting skill is awesome
Looking forward to sharing your experience. Great video btw. Not talking so much about your review as much as the demonstration of your creative skills. Great job all around.
I subscribe and like coz it's actual experience with no editing honest to goodness informative and clearly undestood.. goodluck sir happy flying..
First video of yours that I've chanced upon, and I love your relaxed style (as opposed to some of the frantic or over the top style of some others).
I'm on the verge of getting my first done and this will almost certainly be the Spark. Thanks for the valuable info. Subscribed.
Thanks Philip for great review! Footage really looked great on my TV... the small size really is a great argument for this + price...as they say... 'the Drone you have with you is much more useful than the Drone back in the truck!' ... as you've mentioned though...when you look at foldable carry bag size.. It's not that different to the Mavic. To spend more now on a Mavic.. or just be very happy with what was but a dream several years ago... that is the question! Thanks:)
wouldn't it be easer to reverse the frames instead of flying the drone backwards?
nope. makes no difference. am not using sensors and am not using the screen. am using my eyes.
Like many people before, I thought this was an awesome video review. Something different compared to the norm and flies the spark in exactly the way I would be looking to if I got one. Have a mavic at the minute but this has tempted me! 👍👍
Oh my god, thank god I saw your vimeo link, cause i was thinking all the time "man, that quality sucks a little". But on vimeo it really is something else. I think is good quality and price, and really thinking to get it. Thank you Philip for the review, very useful.
Nice review. I have one on the way (Over 3 weeks wait for it from DJI is a joke) Just watching reviews is making me impatient lol.
Awesome review! I truly enjoyed this video. Thank you for taking the time and for sharing your thoughts. Very helpful!
Thanks for what I have telling beginners to go for if you're not in the business of filmmaking. Its so much fun to play with, I have the P4P is great but like you said it's so much fun that's makes it a great drone nevertheless.. never been any fanboy of any products until DJI.. Cheers!
Very nice presentation.. i found lots of video but this was helpful for me to decide either mavic or spark in size decisions... thanks sir 👍🏻
Best spark video ever thanks philip and happy new years! Ps should i hang on to my letus on ex3 pmw or move on
This was a really cute and intimate review, quite relaxing. Thanks!
A very enjoyable review, thanks. Presumably you know that the phone can be connected by cable and the WiFi turned off. The camera itself has digital stabilisation of yaw, and because this uses some of the sensor, this is why it won't film 4k.
you mean if somehow one could disable this on-camera 'yaw stabilisation' one might be able to film in 4k?
I don't know if that would be possible in retrospect, but I understand that the sensor is capable of 4K
absolutely awesome review. shooting the whole thing on a spark and shooting Sparks with Sparks is awesome. the whole video looks awesome. mine comes in two days and I cannot wait to fly it! really wish it was able to take raw photos. maybe sometime in the future dji will add a little more capability to the settings and we can squeeze the absolute most out of a small package. I believe it's got the power, capability to shoot raw image and do video at 24 fps. but what do I know anyways. plus if they give it to us now it won't be such a big deal next year when they update the hardware a little bit and give us those settings so we have to buy a new one. ha

Thank you for this Philip!! The video image in the shots with relatively lower detail and slower camera motion really looks pretty ok I think. Such as your beauty shots starting at 16:16, very nice!
Notice a lot of artifacts on all the Spark footage I've seen. I'm guessing that the low bit rate? Seems to do well with less trees/grass in the shots.
yep it is overly compressed.
So nice to watch your review and at the end to see you were not mugged, robbed or even worse (like would most probably happen here)... you still have the "boy" in you to be excited about a new toy! A very honest review too! Thank you... and do test the Inspire 2 with the X5s - you'll be surprised by the image quality! Regard!
thanks. i would love one but way out of my budget!
Best Spark review ever!
the HDR does not well. what a pity there s no sensor in the back and everywhere (how about the detection of the electricity cables on the roof etc). and how about the camera in the darkness ? the day I have a smaller drone as alarm, motion detection by zones, 100% waterproof and weatherproof with 3g SIM card and WiFi, double ways communication, face recognition etc so I ll use the drone for my holiday, secure my stuff at the beach, for the house etc. wonderful video !!
Wow, this is different! Well done, I enjoyed this unusual take on reviewing the Spark... :-)
And I was on the edge of my seat when you squeezed the Spark through that V-notch, almost hitting the branches... ^_^
Great review. I don't get though why you slate the image quality, it looked fine to me. Also only a very small percentage of people actually watch you tube at higher resolutions than 1080p so why is it such a big deal that it's not 4K?
Thanks - love my Mavic but this will be fun for holidays and quick shoots
Awesome review. Plenty of sample footage :) Great flying through those trees too!
