so you use manual focus? and set focus on far away object ?

@EdRickerVlogs

No, tap-to-focus is still Autofocus, so I tap on the subject or object and that will automatically focus on the object. Manual Focus is different and actually brings up a focus slider in the app where you drag the slider back and forth to truly manually set focus. I find manual focus very hard to get right from such a small screen since you're using your own eyeball to determine if you're in focus or not, rather than just tapping on the screen and allowing the Autofocus to accurately snap onto the object.

Hey man, I personally love my drones for areal photography. Would you say this model would be ideal for its super resolution capabilities? or would it be better going for the pro?

I bought the Mavic 2 Zoom recently due to the amount of added features over my original Mavic. I would love to see a beginner's guide to some of the settings.

Thank you for going over the optical zoom option under 1080... I was thinking DJI scammed us with their promo video where they zoomed in on the giraffe...but now I see it’s available with the correct settings!

I just want to say you do GREAT videos. They are very well done. Polished, professional. You communicate extremely well and I always come away learning something. Thank You and please keep them coming.

great video dude!! thank you for making this.

Ed. Another great Video! The best thing about your Videos is the extreme attention to minute details which makes your Videos so valuable!!

There are so mutch Videos about the two drones, but no one of them had so usefull tips. Thank you for your work! Greetings from Germany

Great video Ed!! Love the backdrop of the city skyline!

Great video Ed. Can’t wait to see the beginners guide for the Mavic 2. The one you did for MP1 was by far the best on KZread.

I really appreciate your videos Ed. They're concise, well presented and thought out. Always worth watching.

Thank you so much dmfor this video! It's helped me decide to go with the zoom. Great description

Dude you have the best vids out there...great work!!!

Another awesome video. I'm learning a lot about my new mavic. Your videos are well done and you explain everything clearly. Thanks.

I love the scene with the kid running!! I love those moments in the beach, now I want a drone

Best review on the zoom yet, while others babble on about the specs but you actually test the base functions. Subbed 👍

That was a great video! For the novice like myself, you introduce me to a few things I can't wait to try. Thank you! I will look for more of your takes!

As usual , great job. I'm going to wait and see before thinking about a purchase. Flying Mavic Air and Spark for now, having plenty of fun with those two guy. Thanks again buddy.

One of the most well detailed explantations of a drone and its camera qualities ive seenso for👍🏼 cheers mate

Thanks Ed, your tips were amazing! You really helping us out!

Thanks Ed for sharing some valuable information.

Just unbelievable how rock solid are those aloft shots. Great quadrocopter.

Some great information thanks again and thanks also for not shouting. My original purchase option was the Drone with the haselblad camera but have since cancelled in favour of the zoom. I looked at so many videos and for me the zoom was eventually the better option plus trying to justify the extra expense was becoming much more difficult. Love your videos you speak so clearly and very informative. Way to many reviewers start with good intentions and a defined subject but within a couple of minutes go off in a different direction, it just becomes messy and confusing. You manage to encompass your subject without losing focus of the subject. Brilliant and thank you from London UK

Great video! You touched on some things that I hadn't seen in videos published by others. Thanks! Hoping to get the Mavic 2 Pro in next year sometime.

nice review. Trying to decide what to get for my next quad and it's vids like yours helps a lot in the decision making process. Cheers mate.

Your videos are the best! Simple and very informative

This is the kind of review I need, thank you.

Another great vid Ed, thanx for that i enjoyed it

Awaiting the pro vid Great work!

Sifted through hour's of junk "influencers" to find your videos and I am a fan. Great Job keep the good stuff coming

Very good. I really appreciate your detail and actual footage.

Awesome observations there on the easy access to SD and the notch for the phone button. That charging function can sure come in handy! Good video about the little things, I really like the MP RC but there was some things that could be better. Glad DJI adressed that! Thanks for the video, thumbs up from Sweden

Great vid, I've just bought the zoom which is my first ever drone, to be honest it's all over my head at the moment but you have been very helpful

Great video man, having the original Mavic Pro for over 2 years without any issue, I was gonna jump on the Mavic 2 Pro because the 1” sensor and “Hasselblad” camera, but after seeing some reviews, unveiling the real true about the Mavic 2 Pro cropping the sensor to avoid overheating problems I decided to check the Mavic 2 Zoom that will get me the Super High Res photo and the optical Zoom! That’s enough for me! Subbed to your channel buddy!!

Thanks for this video, Ed. I'm upgrading from a P4 to a M2 Zoom. Great tips and info. New subscriber.

Finally someone with some sense! I'm sick of watching people review the Mavic and saying not to bother opening the props!

Hi, Ed, I just found your channel and I want to say I enjoyed the video. Informative and to the point. I'm planning on saving up for a Mavic 2 Zoom to purchase sometime within the next 4-6 months. I subscribed as well. Cheers

Very good review, thanks man ! Keep it up

Very nice video on the Mavic 2 Zoom. Thanks!

Great job Ed, thank you

Nice and straight forward to follow. Thanks.

Oh wow!!! I didn't know it zoomed out to 96mm. I thought is only zoomed out to 49mm. Now I really want one! Great video and thank you for explaining everything so clearly!!! :)

Great video and review. Thanks

Great Video Ed. The zoom will be my second Mavic so looking forward to it..........Gonzo

First time watching your KZread channel. Fantastic work! I'm in the bail bonding business in North Alabama. The active track with Zoom could be a game changer with catching fugitives! Thanks for the video!

Good information Ed. Thanks!

Another great video Thank you

Had NO idea I could zoom in further not being on 4k. THANKS for this video!

Very informative!

Great show and tell instruction and video.

Great review my friend ......thank you !!!

Thanks for the video, I really like that zoom. After having a note 8, I love that 2x camera in it.

Nice review with usable tips for better video quality.

Thanks Ed great job!

I bought already the dji mavi 2 zoom Is the best one thank for your review.

Very well explained. It appears that the Zoom has the edge for videography.

Great Tip on the Zoom in and grab your focus, then zoom out and get your shot. Thanks!

Great video. Thanks

great video thanks just got my pro and flying tonight.

10:24.."And I guess it's gonna be a very "Super Res Image..?" Love it! Great video, BTW. Thanks!

great video man 👍

Beautiful video thank you for sharing

Waiting on my zoom now!

Great Video like always. Big fan. Please add Drone Cinematic Scenes, They are awesome.

would love to see the low light performance of either or both mavic 2s

The easy access memory card slot and better access to home button are a nice touch. Thanks for pointing these things that most reviewers skip over. That APAS system is amazing, the way it moved around objects without stopping. Is the Hyper-lapse intelligent mode only on the Zoom model or the the Pro model have it also? Great video Ed, keep them coming.

also you can enable the grid lines feature which is in the settings which can help you frame things properly whilest zooming

Very useful. Thanks.

Nice man!!! That’s helpful.. I just buy the mavic 2 zoom 2days agp, and it’s my first time that I have this incredible air drone... nice video!! I subscribe and like to.!!! Keep uploading more with drones man

Thank you champ ! Great Video

Great tips Ed! Thanks! You look like you belong on the show, “90210” with those long sideburns. Lol

I just got this drone for Christmas and it is god tier.

That is a great tip on separating the rotors.

Great Video! Thank you.

Nice review!!

I'm almost beginning to wish I could trade up, if it wasn't for the upcoming legal stuff in the UK then I would for sure. this is the first video that has achieved that, thanks Ed.

I still find this one of the best drones around. I have had mine for over 3 years and it works great !

some interesting info, still using my Mavic Pro 1, waiting to see the Pro3.

Dji, King of the sky. Good show, man. If Dji comes out with replaceable camera, that will be awesome!

I ordered my Zoom from DJI 2 days ago and just received it! I think DJI is rushing these out to customers! Way to go Fedex!

Nice presentation Sir Ed, still watching this video. Rgrds 😉

Great video Thanks

COOL. learned something new today

Great review Ed. I agree with the Christopher Walken reference. You could be his long lost son.

Wow that synthesizing video moment reminded me of Independence day :D

14may2019. Hey Ed, appreciate your time n thoughts cuz I understand what you explain n that's awesome. Ty

Hi Ed,. love your tutorials. The issue with focus on zooming is most likely due to the f2.8 aperture. At f2.8 you have a very shallow depth of field. The subject has to be in focused and the rest of the background is naturally blurred. Hence the tip you gave for zooming. Well done.

Love your vids, best drone ytber i.m.o. I would love to buy the mavic pro2, but I think I keep my mavic pro for a bit.

That is an awesome drone!!!

Thanks. I'm just dipping my toes into drone video and this brought up a few notable points. LOL: When you discussed the focus/zzom-in problem and your solution, I was thinking, well, though sometimes not practical, I'd have just shot that from zoomed-in to zoomed-out, then reversed it in the editor. The LOL is because later in the video you suggest that very technique for another shot. Personally, I prefer to not shoot with digital zoom at all since I can take care of that in my editor, as well. But, I can see where if you're switching from optical to digital, doing it with the Mavic would give a smoother product at highest quality. Anyway, thanks again for the vid!

Thanks buddy.

you are the best great vid

Hi Ed, thanks for the video. My 2 zoom is in the mail as I type this so I'm looking at some videos to get a feel for the drone. I just lost my Mavic Air yesterday. Had a low battery and expected it to return-to-home...well, it climbed straight up to one hundred and some feet and then headed the opposite direction from RTH and ran out of battery then dropped into a tree about one hundred feet off the ground. One I get the drone I will come back and watch this again. Thank you.

Thanks for the videos! I would like to know more about how the Super Res photos work? Can you use different zoom levels? Are the stiched outputs seamless? What if there are moving elements like cars or waves?

Man, are you out of shape! Just kidding :) Great video demonstrating the Zoom's activetrack!

I think you can touch screen the building your plan to zoom in on, and then it stays in focus all the way through the zoom. I haven't tried it yet but someone else was doing it that way. You might want to try it too.

Very nice Ed, thanks for all the updates and tips!

Great video and review does your horizon or level need to be recalibrated based on the time lapse footage?

Ah yes! I remember learning eons ago, when I was a kid, with my family's ancient regular-8 movie camera: If you want to zoom in on a subject, always focus at full zoom, hold focus, zoom out, start the "film," and then zooming in.

I was out at Dix yesterday as well with my Spark. Looks like in the same spot too. Right in front of the port-a-johns. Sorry I missed u.
