In our tests the imagery was very impressive for a 1" sensor, clearly competing with or outpacing our previous experiences with the Mavic 2 Pro. All of this in a lighter body that offers more nimble flying than the beefier Pro/Zoom models. The addition of D-log (the DJI Log format) also adds post production flexibility. That extra resolution helps tremendously with rendering fine detail of the wide shots you typically get from flying a drone, and we were very pleased with the reproduction of details like bricks and buildings while working with the Air 2S. The step up in imagery is dramatic with the Air 2S and compares quite favorably to our experiences shooting with the 1" sensor in the Mavic 2 Pro. Larger sensors, of course, mean larger photosites, which can give you better low-light reproduction and higher-resolution images. It boasts a 1" sensor, up from the 1/2" sensor in the Mavic Air 2, which is a dramatic improvement in image quality. Now we are starting to see a lot of that image quality come down to the Air 2S. With a 1" sensor and color science from Hasselblad, the Mavic 2 Pro/Zoom packs a lot of image quality into a package you can fold into your backpack. Next is Mavic Air 2 which is beefier, but it's really the Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom from 2018 that have been the biggest hit with filmmakers. The Mavic lineup starts with the Mavic Mini and Mini 2, which have a smaller sensor that's great for social media but isn't quite robust enough for filmmaking. Mavic units are small, travel well, and fit in part of a larger palette for content creators, while Inspire and Matrice are more for dedicated drone pilots who are making aerial work a major focus of their business. But the Mavic line is the most popular with independent creatives. We got our hands on a DJI Air 2S and walked away very impressed.ĭJI options for filmmakers run from the foldable Mavic lineup up to the interchangeable lens Inspire 2 units to the "carry whatever camera you want" Matrice series. Big enough, actually, that it might even start to compete against the bigger Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom, though there are still a few features that might steer a filmmaker toward those top-of-the-line foldable drones. With a maximum resolution of 5.4K at 30fps or 4K 60fps, as well as the option of shooting in 10-bit log, the small unit packs a big punch. That trend continues with the new Air 2S. DJI has announced the Air 2S, a new lightweight drone with features that content creators should be excited about.ĭJI is by far the leader in drones for filmmakers, but they haven't let that stop them from continuing to innovate to stay ahead of the pack.
