It’s here, the DJI Min 3 Pro is finally here!
This is your 5 minute call – Video dropping in 5 minutes time!
With less than 21 minutes to go, there is no denying that the YouTube chat hype train is real! Many cannot wait to place there order for this new drone, while others want to know a little more before place their hard earned cash on the table.
Whichever one of those two camps you’re in, its very exciting to see big hype around this DJI launch.
So who’s excited, anyone else excited, I am very excited!
Just 34 minutes to go until DJI announce a new drone, will it be a new model to the mini series or something different
If you’ve just heard the news and want the best way to watch is by keeping track of the DJI YouTube channel, which already has people lined up and waiting for the news to hit as and when it happens, but better still we have included the livestream above and you can sit back and follow along with the announcement as soon as we hear about it LIVE on Digital Camera World.
The video drop is set to kick off at 9am ET / 2pm BST / 11pm AEST
The Mini 2 is a reimaging of the Mavic Mini ; it takes a well-engineered ultra-light airframe (the weight is non-negotiable) and addresses the areas which drone geeks complained about. Well, the ones who usually flew much more expensive drones mentioned, anyway. Principally these were: the radio range, the response to cross wind, and an assortment of camera features.
Now the Mini 2 has essentially the same fantastic new OcuSync 2.0 controller from the Mavic Air II, with automatic frequency hopping. Together with more powerful motors and improved software this drone can handle Force 5 (not too bad for such a light craft). Photographers have been rewarded with Raw, Exposure Bracketing (though only 3 stops), and DJI’s spectacular automated panorama features, while video enthusiasts finally have 4K under 250g (and a shiny logo near the lens to prove it), topped off with digital zoom (useful to have, not essential to use).
This drone also sports some improvements to file transferring making it easier to go from drone to phone, and an extra hue-changing light for, er… well, it’s fun to change the color using the remote.
Perhaps the next update will bring a better reason? – will will know soon enough!
It’s no surprise DJI drones top our list of the best drones around. From a bit of high-flying fun, through to the ultimate selfie-drone; from a photographer’s favorite through to industrial and educational quadcopters, DJI have at least one offering in every area. There’s even a drone for crop spraying! The range was extended with three-and-a-half remarkable drones just in 2021, with the arrival of the racing DJI FPV, the foldable DJI Air 2S, the Mini SE (depending where you live) and the Mavic 3.
It’s also important to be mindful of the latest drone rules on registration, which in many places means that there is more paperwork involved with drones weighing more than 250g.
But what would this new drone be replacing? how does the old stack up with the potential news specs? let’s take a look.
To quote a few in the very lively and highly excited Youtube Chat ahead of the official lunch, many are looking forward to a potential DJI Mini 3 Pro, some even saying:
“I’ll be ordering today, I just haven’t made up my mind whether or not I want that smart controller or save the money and go with a normal one” or “I Hope the mini 3 will have good obstacle avoidance because the size is just soo beneficial for that Kind of purposes”
While others are suggesting that smaller drones used to be affordable for everyone but:
“All mini drones were drones that were good Quality and affordable,…
