Still images appear to be slightly softer at the edges than those from the Mavic 2 Pro, even when the Pro’s aperture is set to f/2.8. But while noticeable in a side-by-side comparison, this drop in sharpness is extremely minimal and is no reason to choose one drone over the other. In video, however, the image is sharp across the frame. Another safety feature, which was first introduced to consumer drones with the Mavic Air 2, is AirSense. This feature uses ADS-B aviation technology to receive signals from nearby planes and helicopters, and displays their locations on the on-screen map on the DJI Fly app. Then there’s the GEO 2.0 geofencing system, which helps to keep the drone away from locations such as airports. Overall, DJI certainly has the safety angle covered with the Air 2S, though you'll of course need to heed the usual drone laws. Do not fly or operate a drone or remotely piloted aircraft, toy or model aircraft higher than (120m) 400 ft from the ground, unless approved by the Director of Civil Aviation of the SACAA. Create stunning footage with the options of creating beautiful hyperlapse videos where you can speed up time and movement with a single tap by creating a striking hypelapse. Or create stunning views with the Panorama mode, where you can capture a larger, more detailed view of your surroundings. As always, the Fly More Bundle offers the greatest value for money because getting all of those extras separately would cost much more. Plus, pretty much everything in the bundle is essential, because one battery is never enough and, if you plan to shoot video, you will need ND filters to maintain control of shutter speed. As for the shoulder bag – well, you’ll definitely need something to carry your drone and accessories in, too.

Do not, through act or omission, endanger the safety of any aircraft or person therein or any person or property through the negligent operation of any drone or remotely piloted aircraft, or model aircraft.Unobstructed, free of interference, and when FCC-compliant. Maximum flight range specification is a proxy for radio link strength and resilience. Always follow local rules and regulations and fly your drone within your visual line of sight unless otherwise permitted. Intelligent HDR technology merges multiple shots automatically, increasing the dynamic range of images without the need for post-processing. That means more nuanced details in both the highlights and shadows for richer images with greater depth.

With OcuSync technology instead of Wi-Fi, the drone will offer pilots a video transmission distance of up to 12 km (8km in South Africa) allowing you to fly much further than before, and can also deliver 1080p FHD resolution live stream directly from the Mavic Air 2S drones camera. Unobstructed, free of interference, and when FCC-compliant. Maximum flight range specification is a proxy for radio link strength and resilience. With MasterShots, you select a subject in the app by drawing a rectangle or square around it, then press the start button. The drone will then perform several maneuvers with a countdown timer showing its progress. The drone will automatically select a capture mode to shoot the video in, and then once it's complete you can then add themes in the DJI Fly app to create a video to share. In a nutshell, ISO handling is significantly better than the Mavic 2 Pro, which will make it possible to shoot at higher ISO settings, when necessary in low-light conditions, without having to deal with prominent chroma and luminance noise. In fact, the Air 2S blows the Mavic 2 Pro out of the water in this respect. Create stunning images and video quality with the DJI Air 2S Drone by capturing really impressive shots while soaring high, all thanks to a large 1-inch CMOS, 20MP camera. You never ever have to worry of bad quality again as the DJI Mavic Air 2S drone will ensure nothing but crystal clear stills and video quality.Capture the allure of the world, even as it darkens. Thanks to a high dynamic range, high resolution, and accurate color reproduction, even low-light scenes are sharp and vibrant.

In terms of safety features, the Mavic Air 2S provides front, rear, bottom and top obstacle sensors that use binocular zooming technology to recognize objects from further away when traveling at speed. Also, when Advanced Pilot Assistance System (APAS) 4.0 is enabled, you can set it to stop the drone or to fly it autonomously around, under or over obstacles when they're detected, to help maintain continuous flight.Unless approved by the SACAA, do not fly or operate a drone, remotely piloted aircraft, toy or model aircraft: The most significant improvement in image quality over the Mavic 2 Pro has to be the high ISO noise handling of the Air 2S. Images shot at ISO 3200 are surprisingly clean for a drone, even one with a 1-inch sensor. It’s only at ISO 6400 where noise becomes more noticeable. On the outside, the Air 2S looks extremely similar to the Mavic Air 2, with just a few subtle differences. As you’d expect, it features the folding design that Mavic drones are known for (even if DJI has now dropped the Mavic name). The front arms swing out, while the rear arms rotate down and out for flight and help keep the drone highly transportable. Vision positioning requires non-reflective, discernable surfaces, and adequate lighting. Available at altitudes from 0.5-30 m. The vertical and horizontal positioning accuracy is within ±0.1 m. It doesn’t matter how many bells and whistles you put on a drone, it’s the image quality that's often the most important feature. And the DJI Air 2S undoubtedly delivers here.

Fully immerse yourself in all the hues of your environment. The 10-bit Dlog-M color profile can record up to one billion colors while retaining all the little details that make footage pop. APAS 4.0 is not available while recording in 5.4K/30fps, 5.4K/25fps, 5.4K/24fps, 4K/60fps, 4K/50fps, 4K/48fps, 2.7K/60fps, 2.7K/50fps, 2.7K/48fps, 1080p/120fps. And the O3+ video transmission technology? Well, it’s capable of maintaining a 1080p/60fps live feed from up to 15 km away with a latency as low as 120 ms. Meanwhile, the DJI RC Pro, with its integrated 5.5-inch 1080p screen, is guaranteed to deliver the best outdoor flying experience you can get with the Air 2S. The average brightness on the remote controller is 1,000 nits, meaning you will get a clear display even under direct sunlight.

The DJI Air 2S drone supports 2.4GHz dual-frequency communications that will enable a reliable signal and smooth flight. The signal will ensure that the flight experiences the lowest interference in real time which will significantly enhance the aircrafts anti-interference in challenging environments, leading to improved flight safety. Flying the DJI Air 2S is extremely easy, and indeed safe, thanks to the flight features that the Mavic series have become well-known for. Whether you’re an absolute beginner or a seasoned expert, the flight modes, automated video modes, collision avoidance and manual flight control provide as little or as much assistance as you need. With ADS-B added to the DJI Air 2S drone, this adds an added layer of airspace safety with the industry-leading AirSense safety system. The technology receives Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) flight location information from airplanes and helicopters in your area that transmits ADS-B signals. It will then display those aircraft's on the map, and then provide you with audio and visual alerts through the DJI Fly app to help you keep the drone out of the way of aircraft's. Featuring a 1-inch CMOS sensor, powerful autonomous functions, and a compact body weighing less than 600 g, DJI Air 2S is the ultimate drone for aerial photographers on the move. Take this all-in-one aerial powerhouse along anywhere to experience and record your world in stunning detail. The DJI Mavic 2S Drone features the most advanced O3 (OcuSync 3.0) Image Transmission technology. The technology ensures that it delivers an ultra-smooth, clear, and reliable image feed with up to a maximum of 12Km @ 1080p of Video Transmission.
