Mavic 4 Pro Drone 512GB Creator Combo (DJI RC Pro 2) with 100MP Hasselblad Camera, Triple-Camera System, 6K/60fps HDR Video, 51-Min Flight Time, O4+ 30km Video Transmission, 0.1-Lux Night Vision

During the lead up to release day I had every intention of buying this creator combo as soon as it was released. Then there were questions about availability and whether it would be available in the US at all. The only places that had it had it marked way up so I passed and bought the Air 3S. I had convinced myself it was all I needed since the step up in video quality was tremendous and the additional feature were great but I never lost the desire to see if the Mavic 4 Pro was as good as I'd heard. I suspect there are a lot of people in that boat so I'll just say this: if you think you'll use the additional features this drone has and the weight isn't a barrier to film what you need to, where you need to, get it. The main camera sensor is fantastic and I have always been impressed with the Air 3S main camera. The step up in video quality even leaving out ALL-I and 6k is astounding especially when the light dims. I shot some stuff right before sundown on a cloudy day that I expected wouldn't look very good but it was the first clear day since I bought it. I looked better, cleaner than I would have ever imagined. Really blew me away. I rented a M4P before and was impressed with it however that was a clear sunny day, basically perfect conditions. I had never used it in the kinds of conditions where you don't expect to get awesome footage but got it anyway. I took aerial photo and some video of an area near my home, nothing special, but it was near sunset and the clouds were starting to get pinkish so I thought it might look nice. When I looked at the pictures later even in the corners zooming in on a chain link fence I could see the details clearly. The individual wires of the fence were clearly defined and I couldn't find noise in any of the shots. These were in 4k DLog M and the DNG photos. The RC Pro 2 is worth the cost as it is not only a larger brighter screen but also has more control functions that allow you quick control over the camera and save a lot of hassle. You can also sideload apps onto it unlike the RC 2. I found the control to be excellent compared with the RC2 which I never had any complaints with. The RC Pro 2 also has several more simulation options VS the RC2 three which are also included and the time I've spent practicing different camera moves has improved my flying more than I would have believed. The map with the hot air balloons for example gives you a ton of ways to practice things like keeping a subject in frame while approaching, circling and moving away that aren't easy to find in the real world. There is also no comparable map in the RC 2 simulator the sunny island is closest but those blasted planes keep interfering in what I'm trying to practice. Also you can connect to the USB-C output on the RC Pro 2 and get the same feed you see on the screen. I have done this with my Air 4 Pro glasses and it works flawlessly. There are some downsides compared to other camera drones like a more limited tilt range because of the large camera pod. The telephoto cameras aren't as sharp as the main canera, not bad by any means, but the difference is noticeable and you need to plan for that if you are going to combine shots. The weather in general, temperature and air quality will affect how much this is noticeable as some of the difference is due to the distance you are filming over rather than the camera itself. This can be partially compensated for in post which adds time. The drone is a beefy piece of tech that feels well made and well designed. Flying it is a pleasure and everything from the controls to the video quality fit together so well to enhance the flying experience. Even with the variable aperture I highly recommend getting ND filters to be able to film using the depth of field you choose not just what's right for the lighting conditions. The only other negative for me is the price but I paid it and I very happy I did.

Greatly packaged, no damage. Drone was literally ready to fly! Great seller! Thank you

Undoubtedly the best drone on the market. So many features it's unbelievable. You really need to get the upgraded controller (RC 2 Pro) to make it worth spending this amount of money. If you like to fly drones, this is the one for you. Just purchased it about a week ago flying it every day. I have been flying drones since they came out. DJI outdid themselves with this one.

SD card not working

Delivered faster then original estimated time. The drone is a beast. The device setup was very smooth including DJI updates. I have attached a video to show the zoom feature. It was very windy and the video came out like a still camera.

very nice

Legit company! Delivered much sooner than expected. Definitely a DJI Cadillac.

This is literally one of the best purchases I’ve ever made for my company. I run production and this an absolute game changing drone.
