Very recently, DJI came out with their latest and best drone for filming. The new drone is called the DJI Mavic Pro. Some new features of this drone are that it can avoid obstacles, track a subject as it moves, and fly to a spot that the pilot assigns. The drone even has an ability to snap a photo of the pilot when the pilot waves to the drone. This is obviously some really cool technology that we haven't seen before.
This drone is very beginner friendly and comes all ready to fly. All you have to do is connect your smartphone to the drone through the DJI app and connector cable. While using the drone, the flyer can choose between using your smartphone to control the flight, or use DJI's controller along with a smartphone. While using the controller, you use the control sticks to control the flight and use your phone for the more advanced settings. When you take your fingers off of the control sticks the drone will hover perfectly in place. This allows for very crisp and steady still shots from unique angles. Tracking mode on the DJI Mavic Pro is one of the coolest modes. For example, as a subject runs or skies down a hill, the drone will track them and keep them well-positioned in the frame. Landing the drone can be done by a simple push of a button. The drone, much like the previous ones, has a GPS capability which allows the drone to return back from where it took off from all by itself. GoPro recently released a drone as well a week before the Mavic Pro game out. GoPro's drone was the most portable yet. However, that record was soon demolished by the Mavic Pro. One of the main reasons that the Mavic Pro is so popular is due to its incredible portability. The legs of the drone conveniently fold up so that it is more compact. When completely folded up, the entire drone is only slightly bigger then the iPhone 7 Plus. This allows film-goers more opportunities to get unique shots while on the go. The only real down side to this drone is the rather large price tag. The drone goes for $999.99. This puts this piece of equipment out of many people’s price range. Even though this drone is very expensive, you truly get what you pay for. This drone is very innovative and unique and will open up many new opportunities for drone enthusiasts. http://time.com/4523765/dji-mavic-pro-review-release-2016/
