Given the amount of tech you get in the Mavic package, it actually is cheap. You are getting a pretty decent miniature camera with good enough professional controls in a very decent gimbal/stabilizer system, attached to a nice computerized quad-drone with helpful automation features for single-person-operation. Also a good remote controller and a nice software package. I can still remember when I first saw footage of the Phantom 4 (version 1, not pro) on KZread a couple years back, I was thinking to myself "I really hope this is less than 3000 bucks so I can immediately get it". But I thought it was wishful thinking and it was probably more expensive. Then I went to the website and found out it was like 1500 with a ready-to-fly package including three batteries. I had to double check because this was so much less than I had expected.

When applying 'Pro' to cameras, it's clear that 'Pro' has morphed into 'Prosumer' not necessarily 'Professional. Which, in relation to the Mavic 2 Pro, merely means it's in the top bracket of consumer drones. In this regard, I think the Mavic 2 Pro is probably accurately named.

That larger drone outperforms in every single area it could other than size for cramp quarters. As well, commercial drone tech is advancing at no less of the pace than off the shelf, best buy units.

Really interesting comparison. Regardless of the comparative issues, it was cool to see a hi-end verses a consumer product. Thank you for taking the time to showcase.

The Mavic line is relatively common around here among professional camera teams who shoot for tv and/or industrial film. It's nice to have it in your bag and be able to get a few additional aerial shots just like that. It does increase the perceived production value of your tv piece or docu piece or whatever without adding extra cost. It's so small you can pack it in a bag and always have it in your car, ready to fly in 2 minutes. Funny enough the main reason I got my first Phantom a few years back was that I had time and time again spent an hour or two searching for a spot on a hill to get a long shot of some village or town, often with no good results. With a little drone, you can get that long shot from the air in 5 minutes, even with some nice tracking movement. So, the little Mavic does add perceived quality to my work and that of others in my situation. And for us it's either get those shots with a Mavic, or don't get them at all. There is no way I could lug an Alta with a Red to most of my shoots and also get an additional cameraman or drone pilot to operate it.

I think he's worried because mid-tier budget productions are starting to question why they need to pay for 2 guys to fly a drone plus camera hire when they can get similar aeriel shots from 1 guy and at a lower rate with a DJI or similar prosumer drone.

I love my mavic and would never spend the kind of money to get a true professional setup but just as you say the mavic held it's own, the only reason that is true is because of the nature of such a basic shoot. If the video was done as part of a professional movie type I doubt it would be able to truly hold its own. I think the real reason it wouldn't hold its own is because of the post processing ability that you can get from having the ultra high dollar cameras attached to the pro rig. Cinematography wise Trent even said that there are others who could fly the Mavic better, which would clean up a lot of his shots. End of the day I'm sticking with my slightly over $1300 all told setup and saving the extra $99,000 for something like a house.

"Professional" only means you get compensated for what you do. A paper bag carrying Tupperware for someone who sells Tupperware is "pro gear". High End, thats subjective. Different people expect different things from what they use. Casey Neistat made a very good living as one of the most successful independent filmmakers today. He used these 1 to $2k drones endlessly. That Mavic Pro could easily have a $20k price on it, and it would sell. Not to the average consumer, but to highly paid professionals like yourself. That footage you needed on the balcony was done on that drone. If it couldn't create usable footage to sell and make a profit for you, you wouldn't use it. It wouldn't be a professional piece of gear. But it does and it did. And You would profit having spent 20k to have it around for such events.

Shoot Luck Gaming he’s really not comparing a pro drone to a “pro drone” but rather comparing the cameras on them for one particular purpose. Its a very niche video. Im a professional drone pilot as well but i do site acquisition and analysis, search and rescue, and agricultural surveying all in one. For my purposes I use an inspire 2, an air 2, and a phantom 4 rtk with multiple payload options for site analysis they work due to the ease of the ease of flight and driving between nearby sites so it has to be quick and mobile. Search and rescue is ideal with the air 2 because of the flight time and ability to whip around really quick but I rarely have jobs like that so roi also factors in. A more appropriate title would be “comparing a hollywood cinematography drone to a general purpose professional drone for Hollywood cinematography”

Awesome insight Trent. Blue skies!!!

No...you didn't ramble on too long!! Great to see this - every flight video of yours I watch, i'm asking these questions! Thanks

DJI did pretty good up against that beast I was impressed. I'm sure if DJI had a $100,000 drone it would put that drone to shame.

@@jamescarter8311 The Red camera with a custom made cinema zoom lens will definitely be better than the X7 on the Inspire. But is it *worth* that much more money? Well it depends. It's definitely worth that much more if you get paid well enough. If you're just breaking the bank and not making any money with it, then no, it's not worth that much more.

Just for saying it, it is possible to fly the Mavic with two controllers! (I have done it)

@juergenwelz2591

The Mavic Pro works with 2 controllers but not the Mavic 2 he was using. The older Pro has limited camera pan control of 15 degrees which allows some fine tuning of camera direction relative to the craft's orientation but it is of limited utility.

This is a really great video Trent. Thanks!

Great video, thanks for putting it out there.

I feel like what gets lost in all this is that the "pro" in these products most often times is short for "prosumer," not "professional"

Great review and demo. Lucky with the truck strike! 🍻🍻✔✔🔔👍😉

“Im a real professional” Hits insanely expensive drone on a SUV

Now let’s talk real world. The Mavic Pro 2 was able to hold its own pretty darn well considering it’s about $98k less than the cinema rig. This takes the law of diminishing returns to a new level I would say. Great video to show examples of just how close or not a consumer drone compares to a high end product, since not many people out there have a setup like yours to do this kind of test. Actually I think those people who do have a cinema setup comparable to yours don’t even bother to spend the time or risk of using their equipment to make this type of comparison video. So kudos to you for doing this for the rest of us mere mortals out there.

The law of diminishing returns is very much in effect everywhere in the broadcast and cinema world... did you know that one of the huge, grey boxed 100x zoom lenses that you see in major league sports stadiums costs half a million dollars each? A tripod and fluid head for one of these lenses is like 25k. But apparently, tight close-ups of players in the game sell so much beer and chips that it's worth having up to twenty of those things at every game. However, you would see a night and day difference if we were watching the comparison between the Mavic and the Red on a huge movie theater screen with a professional 4k projector. Especially if somebody did some more extensive grading on the footage, like they usually do in big movies. I do like the Mavic though. It really delivers pretty darn good quality for a very competitive price.

I liked the part where you showed what a dial change in color and light meant vs a click change. Pretty cool!

Your color grading is very good. I wish you had a video tutorial on that.

Very good comparison video Trent! Truly offers praise to each tool's respective qualities.

Nice video bro, loved to see your big setup in action. Motivating

Very good video. I like that you shared your bias and didn't let it overwhelm your comparison. Obviously your Alta is THE professional set up, but I am happy to see you suggest the DJI product has merit. Thanks for sharing your very professional opinion.

That is a crazy set up. Thanks for the information.

Great video, Trent. I feel like this was an imposter though as there was no camera smash at the end!

Next week Kitfox vs A380! Ok I'm kidding but these drones are in different markets. Your big rig is the full movie industry set up and makes most people drool. The Mavic is a flying Go Pro. Oops "pro" again 😀 Good luck with Kitfox parts..can't wait to see you in the air again!

Nice to see the wide range of drone equipment. I certainly agree with "Use the right tool for the job." Well done.

confusing to see you discredit the mavic, and you try to compare 2 shots that arent even similar

That's kind of the point. You can't do the same shots on a Mavic that you can do with a 2-person operated drone with a 360° motorized gimbal and a zoom lens. He didn't "discredit" the Mavic. He was just pointing out why exactly he is using a 100k setup in his daily work.

@@heikosale1027 Except he did an absolute dogshit job of flying the mavic, he didn't even try to fly in close to the truck, or do any manouvering at all, he just flew in a straight line parallel. The he could have flown across in front of the truck with the mavic, I think he didn't because he can't be arsed to try a hard shot with the mavic when his intention was just to crap on it anyway. Of course the professional drone looks better, it's carrying a far better camera but he makes the mavic look crap by not trying to get a good shot with it.

Super cool shop!

The Mavic can fit in a backpack, is in the air in minutes and costs a grand. The Alta 8 needs a truck to transport it, takes upwards of 30 minutes just to set up and costs 50+ grand for a full rig. I need to do a video of a comparison between my Honda CR-V and a Mercedes-AMG GLS. Daft.

Really excellent advice, reviews and comparison. Thanks for that.

Thanks for this, really informative and I found it very interesting.

I'd say the use of the word 'Pro' in a product name simply implies it has some enhanced features over a more basic model. It's also just a buzzword that manufacturers know people will gravitate too so they can sell more product.

Enjoyed this video, have always been interested in what you do for your job. The shot when the cinema hit the truck I literally had my mouth drop thinking "he hit the truck!!!!". Our Phantom got taken out by a back flipping jetski and we said "anything for the shot" jokingly, but you can't say that for your cinema!!

The strafing shot was AWESOME! SO worth it!

7:44 damn. I really apreciate this editing. Simple and clear

Interesting how one can drone on about drones - kidding! Good points about both and the use of them in the business. Also good advice to those who would like to get into the field of piloting drones. Wishing you well getting back in the air with the FoxKiller.

I shot my first commercial 6 yrs ago, before regulations were in play. Phantom 1/ GoPro white I loved so much and no one in Philly was doing it. So I had DSLR Pro build me a Phantom Expedition Series. Smooth, Fast & great control with The Futabu 8 Remoet & Black Pearl. After being in the Film Business for over Forty years, Second generation. I learned a long time ago movement is everything. After mounting camera on everything. Tough job mounting a IMAX camera on the front of a real hellicopter , one of a kind mount so we had to wait to clearance from the FAA. Rush to get the camera on and get the shot before we lost the light. Like your sight and hope I can ask you about things now & then. Sorry for being so long.

I am reminded of a Jared Polin quote. The quote sounded something like, "Someone's gonna say, "Wow you must be rich to have been able to afford all those cameras and gear". I wasn't. I was a working professional who made money using my gear and always updated my gear as soon as a better model came out." It's not too expensive if you can turn a profit using it. And that's what professional videographers do, run a business and earn a profit.

How does something like this, your Toyota Yaris, compare to something like this, my Ferrari 812 Superfast

Very cool video, thank you for sharing your experience with that super professional setup. One thing to say about the DJI Mavic Pro is that despise the name it is not listed as a professional drone, not even the Phantom Pro 4. they're both listed as Consumer drones. Only the "DJI Inspire" drones are listed as professional.

So many flying puns.... I love it.

It's pretty easy. Study for your Part 107 with a $5 app from the App Store, pass the test, then start working on cold calling business that market themselves. -starting small with local Golf Courses, Real Estate, Dealerships, etc.. One job will lead to another, which allows your to increase your story making abilities, pricing (by attracting larger paying clients), and gear... Keep this up consistently, and over the next few years, If you are constant and master your craft, you'll find yourself working for the big agencies.

This was a really cool video, thank you.

Very interesting, Trent. Nice comparison. Hope you do more drone videos.
