About me (the guy behind the cryptic three T's):
my name is Tom David Frey. I'm half Swiss and half German and have lived in many fantastic places, from the United States to Israel. Somehow cool.
My age? Well, it rapidly changes. But you can surely do the math: I was born in 1992, somewhere in a small town in mid-Rhineland-Palatinate.
Now the relevant things you came here for: I have a strong passion for cameras and drones. I got my first Sony at the age of six and started my own business when I turned 18 (don't ever let people tell you that you will not succeed; Live your dreams!).
Nowadays, I'm shooting videos in many countries. I have private clients as well as major companies I'm working with, f.e. Netflix. And everyone knows that one, right?
But, more importantly, I love to fly and shoot (video) with my drones. I've flown in so many countries already (China, Switzerland, the USA, Spain, Iceland, Israel, Germany, and plenty more) and love to explore the world from above in all its beauty.
That's why my main business is all about drones. I capture the world from above. And I share my experiences, knowledge, and the best new inventions with you.
Drones and cameras excite me so much that I put a lot of time and hard work into creating my videos. And I love that you guys appreciate them!
Now, join me on my adventures and subscribe to my channel.
Stay tuned and fly safe!

I like nothing less than fake reviews and videos that spread half-truths just for the financial gain of someone. I believe that being honest to you is much worthier in the long run than making quick money by spreading fake information. Truth rules! Don't believe me? I already had to give up on two promising cooperations because the companies found my videos to be too honest. I call that my occupational risk. 🦾

Hi Tom. Is the batteries from the Pro compatible with the Pro 2?
Nice review!!! I know the batteries are diff bet ver1 and ver2 lot thicker but what about the connections? Can I use my old charger to charge the new batteries. I want to keep my multi rapid charger. love that I can charge 3 batteries at the same time rapidly
does it work with dji goggles?
I'm pretty sure DJI purchased Hassleblad.
Hey Tom. Great video. I would like to download the files you used in your video but I can't seem to find the links. Any chance you can re-post them? THANKS!
Tom, your reviews are rock solid and very much appreciated. Seems many can slam together a "review," but it's nice to be able to rely on a consistent, trusted source like you. So thank you.
Fantastic review!!
Hii
Wow. Of all the videos Ive seen...casey..Iphondo...Kai...Aldrin...this is the cleanest most comprehensive, complete and professional review out there. Hands down period
It sucks they make you chose between a better sensor and cool features like Optical Zoom and the Dolly Zoom effect. Why can't they combine the two?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ - its a business
Cant agree more
For output 1080 just use zoom version
Its enough
Even for pro users
im glad the zoom is cheaper cause i dont need all the fancy stuff of the hasselblad, but i want the cool dolly effect mode and the zoom option, win win situation for me ^^
to make u spend more money, they didn't even add 4k 60 , so u will have to buy a phantom 4 pro or the new 5 coming up ,
Great review from a European without the loooong bla bla that most north American youtubers tend to spice up their videos with. Straight through the review and through the individual points without hassling. Thanks Tom.
but I want the zoom and the 1inch in the one drone
@@thewindrises is that a serious question?
@@thewindrises just because you in theory can fly "anywhere" you want, that doesn't mean you're allowed to. Also, if you're doing something like animal videography, this might not even be technically possible.
@@AugmentedGravity good point. I think where live audio is involved, Mavic 2 zoom will be good option.
@@thewindrises Take a closer video whereas the drone is in a best safety distance from the object, for example to film animals, or kids.
Me too.... I know the answer. Mavic 3)))
Overall, I would say the camera on the 2 Zoom is amazing already now combined with zoom capability, it takes the cake!
Excelente review...
Having 2 drones for backup is a plus and even better if they are functionality similar.
The Pro for Mapping, Surveying and the Zoom for inspection.
I would have liked to seen a demo of some of the new anti-collision system.
Check out iPhonedo review for that, quite impressive how it flying around and beneath the tree branches.
Thanks.
Roger Huston BTW, Iphonedo has a fantastic collision avoidance demo in his review. (Sorry, didn't se X99Zero's earlier reply)
LOL at the lady power walking in reverse at the start of the video!! :)
Thanks Tom. I bought the Mavic Air in Feb. after watching your review of that. I might be buying the Mavic Pro 2 now! Can I borrow £1300 ;)
Lol
the footage from the M2P was soooooooo much cleaner. for me the choice is clear and i'm getting the Pro. i feel like really the only feature of the Zoom that can't be replicated by the Pro is the dolly zoom. aside from that you can crop (since you have a bigger sensor) or just move closer with the drone.
the zoom also gives you the ability to compress the scene for more cinematic look...... it´s not just to "get closer", it helps also to separate the subject from the background (DoF), cheers !
Tom, outstanding review and testing of the new Mavic 2 drone. You have covered a lot of information in a very short period of time. Just a shame that the 1" sensor doesn't have zoom capability as the regular MP Zoom. I'll be looking forward to your further reviews and testing on both drones, Thank You!
As well he forgot to demo and review dollyzoom which is only on the zoom model
Not the mention the Pro image quality seems to be far worse - look at the sharpness, contrast, and saturation. And boosting Sharpness in post is Not the same as a sharp lens. Not impressed with this Hasselblad lens. What’s going on?
The Mavic 2 Pro is a dream come true. Unbelievable what they've done there. Footage looks insane.
It is to bad DJI did not offer interchangeability between the two camera types. Allowing the consumer to buy one or the other camera. Therefor having two options in the photographers arsenal for image capture.
They actually mentioned in the release event that this will be possible, so you dont have to buy a whole new drone to upgrade. Sample images from our Mavic 2 Pro are available on our blog fyi :)
Neil Yakuza you can. You just have to send it into costumer support to have it changed. Which still isn’t ideal
DJI even will offer a new remoter with screen for this,like the p4 plus.
Now that the honeymoon phase is over with the Mavic 2 pro, more and more pilots have found that the zoom obtains cleaner shots without needing to fix them in post. Over and over Mavic 2 Pro owners are saying that they are disappointed with the clarity for most video purposes. The Hasselblad camera was a definite hook at first. Now I can SEE clearly! Your video comparison confirmed that I will purchase the ZOOM! Thanks, Tom! Now what to do with my Mavic Pro and a suitcase full of accessories?!
Best review on the internet. I didn't waste my time compare to other reviews that were really a waste. Txxxxxxxx
PROJECT xK iphnedo has better review. check man....
Agree with Piter. Iphonedo review is super awesome.
Tx for the advice.
Hi Tom, Thanks for a great review ... I couldn't find the link for the Mavic 2 Pro 4 hub battery charger in the description section. Can you point me in the right direction?
Drone footage to download is not available... There are only Mavic Air on the MavicPro2 Link... can you correct this please?
There are only 3 files available for photo or video: Links # 1, 2 & 3. The first link is clickbait to get traffic to DJI's website. Not cool
That's an excellent review. I wish if we had more built-in memory (64 GB) and instead of 2 different drones, they could have combined both into one.
Excellent video Tom.
Could you comment on the lag on the FPV display? And perhaps compare low light footage from the two cameras?
you said at the end that the camera are not exchangeable and the camera cannot look up! but i watched a video and it stated you can send the drone in for the camera upgrade and also the camera has been shown to point up!
I believe Zak from jerry rig showed the camera pointing up and another video said about the upgrade camera option
Great review as usual. Very solid stuff.
Just one question: how did you get the Mavic 2 so soon?
Did you get a pre release unit from DJI?
Certain people could pre order
Press/ UA-camrs receive drones early to review. There is a press embargo on the drones which is why you see tens of videos on the drone being released at the same time
Tom is a trusted DJI reviewer. Like several other drone reviewers (Casey Neistat, iPhonedo, and iJustine), he most likely received his drones in advance from DJI with the strict stipulation not to release their reviews until the embargo was lifted by DJI after the Brooklyn announcement.
@@zews1 Doesn't this also means that if you make too negative review of DJI product you will not get next new models for the review?
Good evening! I am Brazilian and I live in the state of Pernambuco! I loved your video explaining all the two MAVIC 2 AND THE ZOOM! Give it here in Brazil because here everything is much more expensive, and taxes levied on products like this cost 60% more expensive! I really wish I had one of those than MAVIC 2 ZOOM because I identified with that!
The zoom version has 2x optical and 2x digital zoom. Does the 1 inch sensor version have the 2x digital zoom?
No zoom capability. 28 mm whereas the Zoom is 24 mm to 48 mm zoom and with that has the DollyZoom feature.
Yes it does.
Dude you killed this review. I already know which on I’m going to buy. God one bro!!
Great review! Can you hook up the DJI Crystal Sky monitor to the new controller and does the DJI mount for the 5” monitor work?
I just bought the zoom and haven’t opened it because I wasn’t sure if this was the right drone for me. It sucks that we have to choose between two features. Very well done video btw.
Question: Is it tap screen to focus like original mavic pro or auto focus like mavic air?
Would like an answer too. On dji website the zoom model says an auto focus when zooming but doesn't explain further.
Mavic pro has manual AND auto focus, mavic air has fixed focus. Mavic 2 pro and zoom also has auto focus with possibility of manual override.
Hey Tom! I just ordered the Mavic Pro 2 with DJI care and the fly more kit. After lots of research and hours of youtube videos, I finally chose the pro. I made the effort to come back to this video to thank you and also to use your affiliate link to place my order! I hope it worked correctly! Thank you for your detailed and complete review and all the time and effort you put in. Subbed!
Great just in time! #thumbsup
I saw the nd filters are not available right now... Did you get them to test them too?
I'm looking forward for nice footage ;) Thanks for good review
Hi Tom. Fabulous review! So good that I've just ordered the Mavic 2 Zoom. I listened to you about the level of photography and although I'm keen to produce videos and photos of high quality, I do recognise that for UA-cam, quality is limited. Yours is the best review of a drone I've seen. Stunning location too. Thank you.
Well, I’m really impressed how Dji upgraded mavic pro. This drone has everything except parachute... really I think dji should think about this feature, I had collision with bird and probably i lost 1 props, in consequence i was watching how my drone is falling down and crashing to pieces on tarmac road. Could you imagine how cool be if you have emergency parachute, in this situation drone will land safely and probably pair of props need to be replaced instead of full drone.
That would be big and heavy
Fly safe. If you fligh in sight, this would normaly not happen. I know if you wanna get good shots, you have to be confident and a bit risky. But you have to take the responsibility!!
Aaron DukerBro How would flying within eyesight prevent you from hitting a bird?
Someone probably already mentioned it below, but if not. Gyroscopes/accelerometers are not confused by hovering above the moving water.
Dji own Hasselblad .. Hasselblad didn’t join in 😂
Yea, and frankly, if DJI didn't own Hasselblad, there is no way the older Company would have put it's name on this camera system that has so many problems. The concept is good, but deployment of the idea has some major flaws. In some supposedly full sensor 4K modes, the full sensor is not being used, or there is some other problem, because the resolution simply isn't there. I thought I would get the PRO, but because of the flaws of the PRO I will get the zoom, which is not even much of a compromise with the exception of losing the wonderful 10 bit. The zoom has more consistently sharp 4K footage thruout the range of modes, AND it has the Zoom. Unfortunately it has a fixed aperature which means you will have to have a set of ND filters, which is a pita and cannot be changed in the air. Databyter
I'm a first time buyer of a quad. I have been looking for about a month and was set on mavic air for my first. But watching your presentation of the new mavic 2 I think I may have found a different possibility. Would the pro be too much for a beginner? I hate to buy a lesser drone and shortly want to upgrade to a better machine. Tom you are the best tech guy I have seen on you tube, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Paul Quirk I just ordered the Mavic 2 Pro. What did you end up deciding?
Can you use an ND Filter on the Mavic Pro 2??
YES, DJI HAS THEM ON THEIR SITE
You don't need it because it have mechanical iris.
@@MrPashee yes you do if you want to keep your shutter at the 180 rule. Try shooting at f/3.5 at 24fps and 1/48. The picture would most likely be completely overexposed by the sun.
There is no need for that.
MrPashee: Not necessarily so. You would still need them for photos of waterfalls or other desired movement in the photo.
Great drones no doubt. Anyone else a bit disappointed neither drone offers 4k60p? Was really hanging for that for slow motion work and from what I can see the Autel Evo is the only compact drone to support this to date. The Mavic 2 Pro is a no brainer, however I think the Autel Evo and Parrot Anafi will be viable competitors to the Zoom depending on your needs.
Great review. Loved the balloon scenes. Can we swap out the gimbal / camera? It sure sounded like that during the subtle comment of upgrading the gimbal later on during today's presentation.
DJI''s See the Bigger Picture video on their DJI youtube channel -- At 1:36:32 the most profound statement was made. This looks like more gimbal / lens options for the Mavic 2 - OUTSTANDING! I hope they add a Hasselblad with 50mm eqv lens and gimbal in the months to come.
Brilliant review and I have now gone back to my original choice, the zoom. So well explained and your slight campness is endearing. Excellent
For some reason footage from zoom looks better than from pro
I noticed that also , maybe different time of the day ?
maybe worse post processing or he used hdr which cant be displayed on non-hdr monitors
I think he was zoomed slightly and that was the amazing look of the compression. Especially on that island!
I would have been happier with a side by side comparison of the 4x digital on the Pro vs the 2x optical and then 2x more digital on the Zoom. Scouring the internet trying to find something showing how good the zoom capability is. Do you have another video featuring the optical zoom lens?
HI TERE AWSMMMMM REVIEW,,,JUST WANNA KN OW IF THE IMAGES AND VIDEOS CAN BE DIRECTLY TRANSFERRED TO THE PHONE WITHOUT NEEDING THE COMPUTER...THANKS
Now who is still waiting for
"Phantom 5"!!
Thank you Tom for this fantastic review, As a 70 years old Drone Pilot living in Orlando, Fl with all kind of restrictions I will buy this amazing new Drone. By the way if you happen to drive thru Bad Hersfeld area please take some air view of that Beautiful City that old Soldier like me consider our second home we used to be station in the Kaserne close by. We will really appreciated. Thank you for the fantastic review..
Why put the Hassleblad name on it and jack up the price accordingly? Everyone know that the camera was made in the same Chinese factory as the drone. Hassleblad is not the dominate name in photography it once was.
yea but hassleblad's technology is still in the top. If it weren't then NASA would not use it.
DJI owns stakes in Hasselblad, so it makes perfect sense to have this joint development (and branding). But I bet the sensors are actually from Sony..
It's NOT just putting on a tag.Unlike certain smartphone, this is a true Hassleblad camera. DJI owns majority shares of Hassleblad.
I guess maybe some Swedish guys refiend some color parts
thegalaxy Fanboy logic..., Hasselblad was used ONLY for the moon landings, that’s all. They wanted a medium format FILM, maybe 8 choices back then, much less today. nasa uses many other brands too. In digital was the original Dalsa that’s still a benchmark for 4K today.
Great job you really hit all the points
Fantastic video Tom. Two questions:
1. How is the active track up and down a gradient. E.g. I'm looking go active track down an alpine slide in Switzerland
2. How is the video quality in low light? I'd love you to do a comparative video of both Mavic 2's in low light.
Thanks
Pro way too much better in low light than Zoom based on some reviews
Thanks for the comprehensive guide. Today is a game changer moment for the use of drones in general photography. Incredible amount of tech for the money and its now going to be far less about drone flying but more about just being a pure picture creative platform.
One thing I will disagree with you, I think a lot of professional photographers (I have been one for nine years) will go with the zoom, the ability to have full control over composition overrides the improved colour/range/size of the pro 2 imho. You can make a lot of that up in post processing, you cant change perspective (easily) on your raw file. Of course I'd like to have both, I'm sure that day will come in the next 18 months.
Such a beautiful drone, I had a hubsan h501s and something happened in interference, it flew off and I never seen it again. Sad day for me. I wish I could afford the mavic 2 Zoom, such an awesome beautiful machine! Unfortunately I cannot so watch these videos in hopes one day I will, very good job on this, I love your videos! Thank you again, these mavics are my dream
Very thorough. Helped me decide to get the mavic 2 pro and take it around the world!
Awesome review. Really impressed with the capabilities of the Pro, and the original video footage you made available on your website, looks amazing on the big screen. I used to own a Mavic Air, but thought it was time to upgrade it later on. As an European, I'm glad that we get 5 km range on the Mavic 2 Pro, compared to the laughable 2 km range on the Mavic Air.
The Mavic 2 Pro could easily be my successor to my previous Mavic Air. Thanks a lot man!
Your footage of the 2 Pro looked way better than in DJI's video. Seriously. Such a dope video man.
It uses ultrasonics above water for accurate distance measurement. I used this method in 2003 on my robots.
Hi! Tom, I’m your big fan! In your disadvantages, it’s says “Cameras are not exchangeable” but In DJI Japan’s FQA, says “Cameras are exchangeable” but you have to have DJI to do it and need to pay for it. Please check with your DJI. I love your videos. It’s always wonderful :-)
That was one of the very best reviews I have ever seen. You explain the difference and likeness of both drones in great detail but in a way that the average person can understand. My wife who is so not tech savvy that turning on our DVR is a struggle, understood your explanations. Thanks so much for the great review. You did,such a great job that she wants us to get the Mavic 2 Zoom model. Great job in this great review. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😉😁
Hello where is this lake that you are doing this, very beautiful crystalline waters
Tom, nice job on this review. You really captured a lot of detail in this video (which I know isn't easy). Nicely done...I'm on the fence myself between the 'Mavic 2 Pro' (with 1" sensor) and "Mavic 2 Zoom" (with Dolly Zoom)...hmmm, will have to give it more thought. Again, great job...
Most detailed video.good job.well done.
Simply one of the BEST REVIEWERS on the internet. 7 such a great review of these new Mavics. Thank you sir
The upgrade obstacle avoidance system seems a lot like Skydio R1 which is amazing. If it's 60% as good as the AI powered Skydio R1, i would say Mavic 2 is an amazing deal at $1400 because Skydio costs $2500!
Brilliant Tom! Great seeing you demo all the new stuff - specially the comparison to help getting the right tool for the user.! Best regards!
Thank you for making the uncompressed files available! I was able to play around with the grade, and compared to my mavic air, it holds up SO much better. Jaw dropping really
This is an amazing review..most comprehensive one i have found not just about this model..but any drone for that matter..
I dont own a drone right now and my knowledge in this is quite limited..still i could understand everything.. keep up the great work..
Another great review. One thing that I’m very interested in with the Mavic2 Pro is the adjustable aperture. Primarily for being able to maintain a 1/50 sec shutter speed for smoother video without the use of neutral density filters. Can you touch on that for a moment? How is it adjusted? Can you set it to shutter priority like a DSLR? Also are any of the accessories (props, charger, foam fitted cases, etc...) from the original Mavic compatible? Thanks and keep up the stellar work!!
Great review Tom! I was hoping to see you in NYC. Cheers.
Tom, a feature I was hoping to be mentioned was taking stills while filming. I found out after a bit of searching that the DJI FAQ on the Mavic 2 says they CANNOT do this, so there is still something the Phantom 4 can do the Mavics can't.
Ummm I do this all the time with my pro.
Great review - although there is no way the wind test was 210 Km/h. The max speed of the drone is supposedly 72 Km/h. A hurricane has a wind speed of at least 119 km/h.
I think you need to do a review on that blower :P
Oh - and those having issues with the supplied sample footage from the PRO version using the HVEC codec importing into editing software - rename the file from .mov to .mp4 and try.
DJI's Mavic 2 faq explains the 27 min number for the battery. You get that while hovering, as this new drone is more efficient while moving and is less efficient being stationary. Makes sense, as you spend most of your time flying, not hovering your drone. Max time hovering from DJI is 29 min, max flight is the advertised 31 min.
Thanks Tom. This is a really thorough, useful review - by far the best such review - true evaluation of the product.
Good to see that DJI is carrying forward product improvements to new models from other model lines. Some companies keep some features exclusive to higher priced model lines , so kudos to DJI.
Looks like both the Pro 2 and Zoom still have the same problem with muddy dark areas as the Pro 1, and need Detail Sharpness cranked up in the DJI GO 4 app to stop the noise reduction from smudging dark details.
How would the Mavic perform at tracking a person flying a paramotor/paraglider? Thank you!
I think for anyone who currently owns the Mavic only purchase option would be the pro. Zoom model camera sensor is the same old we’ve already been there I can’t see buying that one even though it has the zoom function.
Thanks for your thorough review of these two outstanding drones. The only feature I failed to see was Dolly Zoom.
In other reviews the zoom camera can look up. Also there's the dolly zoom flight mode.
This is my first time watching this channel, and it is by far the most thorough early take on these two drones. Absolutely wonderful job by your entire team.
Now to go shopping! 😀
You deserve more "views" and "likes" because your review was more informative about the new drones. Very thorough review : )
Awesome review! Am I right that pro has the wider field of view than the zoom?
Hey, the footage links on the site have been updated, now they take you to the mavic pro 2 sales tunnel !!! But wait, there should be some footage behind these links... Unless this is just an affiliate commercial review...
Great review..
Good job Tom..
Maybe next video,, you can compare side by side footage between pro & zoom,, at 1080p & 4k
Nice review! Did toy test the panorama making (360) function? Is it available with Super Res 48mp in pano mode?
Yes, I would like more info on the focusing on the M2P. Nothing has been said about it or tested.
Great review by the way. Excellent job and beautiful area to do it in. I did hear one note about when taking a photo, the shutter button is a two step function like on a DSLR Camera. Halfway down to focus the full press takes the photo. But I don’t know if this is really the case.
Wow thank you for making this! I'm so hyped to get the Pro in a few months! Been waiting for Mavic's next iteration and the wait is paying off!
Hey man, for yet another great video!
I have ordered and refunded back and forth 4 times between the Pro and Zoom. Could you shed some light as to how much better is the Pro’s camera/sensor/colors and how much better is its low light performance?
I’m a hobbyist who’s never going to make a dollar out of them and mostly shoot travel videos, vlogs, misc. short clips, but also shoot pictures.
I like the creativity that the Zoom might offer me (not crazy about over doing the Dolly Zoom thing a million times per video) and all the 48mm FOV looks so cinematic, but then I think that most of the zoom benefits can be achieved through post-processing. Is the 48mm lens compression noticeable enough?
Please help me!
I like the noise. When I lose visual I am reassured when I hear that buzzing over my head.
Hello Tom, You're doing a great job educating the world about drones. I'm a new drone owner, DJI Mavic Pro Platinum. Being new, I looked into the new FT Aviator joy stick control device. I look forward to hearing your impressions of this new control device. Thank you,
Excellent review, already ordered the 2 Pro. You listed a disadvantage being the cameras can't look up, I thought the bigger camera could?
OK that's impressive. I know you had a clipped on mic, but still you recorded that with the drone hovering right next to you and it wasn't that noisy! Nice!
Hi Tom!
The Mavic Pro (v1) has a Portrait Mode, very useful for vertical video (IGTV, Stories, etc) - Do you know if the Mavic 2 comes with Portrait Mode too? Thanks so much!!!
The best review on line. Thanks Tom. Hey, a total unrelated question. What camera did you use to shoot your review. Beautiful images and I love the way it handles the whites.
I'll buy the Zoom when they make in BLACK. Nice video!
I really want to see more of an action sports follow type test(s) in the Active Track 2.0 to see if it really is functional compared to the 1.0 version that is totally insufficient for faster pace sports following.
Best review in all techs i have ever seen your are now my number 1 for tech
Excellent review. Best I've watched so far. Intelligent fight mode examples were helpful, and I'm glad you told me that side collision avoidance isn't available when flying manually. Saved me from crashing this thing the first day.
You have done an amazing job with this video. It was very complete.
The best review so far by a large margin. Thank you.
Very nice review :I) I'm getting the zoom model mhyself.
The range of the Mavic is not so important , always remember that you cant fly the full 8 km in the US or 5 km in Europe and still have "work time". As the transit time to target + safety will eat up the battery . a 2-3 km range is more than enough if you want to do anything but fly out and back again
