"The tent is very well constructed and quite robust, with high-end materials. ... Construction quality has been much better than expected"
"I have and it managed pouring rain and high winds without issue."

"estoy encantado con la resistencia"
"It handles the wind perfectly by the seaside, strongly recommend!!"
"The mini 4 pro is magnificent but pricey. It’s also great in wind, I live in a city where winds routinely gust close to 35 miles an hour, and it rarely complains and shots stay steady."

"Have you tried shooting in HLG on your A3S? I use this for better results at night. ... The night mode for the M3P has an ISO range of 800-12800 but HLG is only 100-1600 but definitely gives a better looking result. ... I post process color grading HLG to HDR and looks way better than night mode because you get a larger dynamic range of colors and light to shadows from the original video done in HLG."
"I get the best photos with the Mavic 3 and 3E since they both have a 4/3rds wide camera sensor."
"The dynamic range is ridiculous on the mavic 4 pro. I honestly think the advertised 16 stops is pretty accurate. The stacked exposure videos are amazing"

"Crazy though how much easier it is to fly M4P compared to M2SE. You'd think it would be harder since it is bigger but complete opposite. Its like a hot knife to butter."
"I fly the mavic 4 pro a lot though because we have a lot of pretty high winds at our ranch, and it is very stable in wind."
"the Mavic 4 Pro is so much easier to fly than the Mini 2 SE ... M4P just cuts through the air like hot knife to butter"

I want a mavic 4 pro. My mavic zoom is getting tired lol.
r/dji • DJI Mini 5 Pro first look ->In your budget what you'll be looking at is essentially a phone camera on a capable drone. 1/2" chip, fixed focus, nailed to a 2.8 iris and glass the size of a dime. You'd have to step up to a used Mavic 2 (1" cmos hasslebald camera) or greater for a decent sized sensor that shoots raw or log gamma.
r/dji • Fairly new to drones, but a seasoned hobby photographer obsessed with getting the “perfect” shots/high quality images and videos- what DJI model would you recommend? ->I've basically stopped using my Mavic and use my Mini 3 Pro for most things now. Wind resistance isn't quite as good, but image quality is more than good enough and being under 250 g makes flying a lot easier (in Canada, might be different where you are). Some people assume 'bigger is better'. I've seen that in photography, where my Nikon D800 with huge lens gets more respect than a smaller camera. (So sometimes I'll being the bigger camera for show, use it for a few pictures while mostly using a smaller camera, and let people assume that the best pictures were taken with the bigger camera when in reality all the pictures came from the smaller easier-to-carry camera.)
r/dji • Do I need a bigger drone for commercial use? ->Wouldn't go for "mini" series, otherwise pretty much any DJI camera drone, camera is quite good on all of them. Not new as in used or not latest models? Even first gen Mavic Pro has 20+ minutes real flight time, can be found for as low as $200. "Mavic 2 Pro zoom" has optical zoom, could be useful for your usecase. From new ones Air 3 would be my choice, 40 minutes flight, zoom lens, bigger for wind, but rather expensive. Also DJI sells official refurbished stuff, Air 3 is \~850 there
r/fpv • FPV best options for usage ->I taped a 360 camera to a Mavic 2 and it flew fine.
r/drones • Thermal cameras for drones that are detachable? ->An Air 3s is heavy enough to shrug off a lot of wind, and has sensors in every direction plus lidar for obstacle avoidance. You can also take off inside and fly it out through a doorway to do it's thing then it will RTH by itself through the doorway back to where it took off. The mavic 2/3s would also handle the wind but won't have such good obstacle avoidance. None of them are mini series quiet, my mini 4 pro is like a stealth drone, but they're also not avata noisy and don't get me started on the neo - damn thing is like a chihuahua when it comes to noise per pound. Doesn't sound like quiet is one of your big things though, more OA and wind handling.
r/dji • Best drone for terrible drivers? Obstacle avoidance ->Mavics are so good!
r/drones • Perfect landing! Did some test flights using RTK with the new drone. Getting ready for the season ->This is the hardest part for me. I use my drones for business and I’ve only had to have a replacement once when an error caused my Mavic 2 to land in a lake. BUT, flying without DJI Care or any way to get an issue fixed makes me incredibly anxious. I do have separate gear insurance that includes my drones but if new sales become prohibited, that won’t help me replace a drone.
r/dji • Rip Americans ->Honestly, to the eyes of the public, the Mavic isn't much more impressive than the mini. If you want to look serious, you need an Inspire or an M300. But that's 500% overkill for OP's use cases.
r/dji • Do I need a bigger drone for commercial use? ->If you want something like a DJI Mini/Air/Mavic, you're not going to get much from what are basically cheap knockoffs. If you want FPV pieces (frames/motors/transmitters...), or even full builds (Nazgul, BetaFPV...), AliExpress is pretty much the #1 source.
r/drones • Was anyone happy with a Temu/AliExpress drone they bought? ->I just bought a mini 4 pro from DJI-us to do real estate work but I’m still stoked on it. I’m sure the 5 pro is better but my last drone was a Mavic 2 back in 2020 or 2021 so this 4 pro will be awesome. Thanks for sharing this pic though! Pretty cool to see
