Every drone owner should watch this video, regardless of the model or brand you own. So much useful and creative applications that will improve your flying abilities. There's a reason this video took the time it did to make, and is worth every second of view time. Great job as always Phillip!

@@scottslotterbeck3796 Agreed! It's not straight "do this" but conceptualizing so you can make your own "this" -as to your "this", I assume it's is photo/video vs. drone footage - at least for the first half of those years!

Somewhere out there there is a parallel universe where Philip Bloom doesn't use his talents and experience to make hour-long review videos of popular electronics which he releases for free. I'm glad I live in this one. Cheers Philip, thanks for everything this year. Hope you and your pride of cats (is that the right collective noun?) have a great 2022.

I really wasn't sure how you'd have enough content to cover 90 minutes in a pt 2, but after watching I'm blown away by some of the decisions DJI has made for this drone.

I have zero intentions of buying this drone but regardless of that, as usual incredible video. I could easily watch you talk about cameras for hours as you are obviously extremely passionate about what you do and we really need more people like you in the film community on youtube.

Simply amazing how every product review video you make brings a similar enjoyment to watching a newly released anticipated Netflix series. We all appreciate the amount of effort you put into such videos Philip.

If they let philip be a pre-production testor, it will break thrir budget. Philip keep it up with your contents, i am enjoying it very much

For those who may not be interested in 3 or even those who don’t fly drones, it’s worth watching the last 3 minutes for sheer narrative filmmaking appreciation. Mr. Bloom is an international treasure.

Just leaving a comment to show appreciation for the ridiculous amount of work you put in Phillip. Happy new year!

Easily one of the most useful, authentic and comprehensive review videos I've seen. Anyone considering the Mavic 3 needs to watch this video. And the b-roll is sooo dreamy.

Yours are not the only reviews I watch but yours are the ones that can actually change my mind. Thanks for being so thorough.

It's amazing to see how many reviews on this, the new Classic, and the latest firmware update, are acknowledging our very own Mr Bloom's influence on getting back the super slow mode. Good to see from the community. Thank you, Philip. Your efforts are appreciated.

@@philipbloom Yeh, Air Photography ("g'day folks"), Tech Drone Media, DM Productions, all mentioned you (last 3 vids watched on the subject). And others, without digging too far back. The acknowledgement is only too right :)

Wow thanks for a great and honest review. I bought the 3 when it was released and sent it back after flying it for 2 weeks. I like to do a lot of reveal shots and flying over tree tops and felt I could not do it safely in d-log (could not see without preview LUT). I really feel they are trying to force us to buy the RC Pro. A real downgrade from the Mavic and Mavic 2 Pro was the controller. One programmable button?? What were they thinking? Now I have to constantly take my fingers off the sticks to make adjustments. Not good if you are trying to get cinematic moves. I also spent 3 batteries trying to smooth out the movements. After an hour and a half and still getting choppy movements, I landed, packaged it up and sent it back to DJI. Maybe a future buy, but not now. Signed the petition, bring back tripod mode!

Wow! I have no intention of buying a drone anytime soon, but I have enjoyed all your reviews and videos about drones very much. I have seen full length feature movies that are shorter than this! You totally have earned the title of most thorough video camera reviewer on KZread. Great job as always!

Happy New Year mate! I hope you're feeling better. This was the first video of 2022 I watched and as always it was worth the wait. The shots of the London skyline on the telephoto lens were absolutely stunning. It's frustrating to see how the drone could have been an absolute game-changer if they'd doubled down on the telephoto sensor! (Though to be fair, I hadn't factored in the danger of snooping voyeurs).

My God... the amount of work you put into this amazing video is simply mind boggling! I think editing a simple video is hard work, so the thought of producing something like this is definitely a next life sort of task. I learned so much after watching this video.

Yes Great Job PHILLIP. Happy New Year, hope you are Better Now. Applaud the snoring cat, Name! You just rock with your time spent getting to know the frustrations, yet glimmers, in reverse of course!

The most insightful review I have watched so far. Thank you so much for all the effort, the way the review is served and all the useful information!

Thanks for your amazing effort Philip, this is such a lot of work which is incredibly detailed and informative. Keep on being the gent that you are. You’re like the David Attenborough for filmmaking, so soothing I love it

There are few long-form videos I'll spend the time watching on YT, and your reviews are firmly in that group! Both episodes combined are a fantastic watch and thank you for your thorough work, including the petition and the checklist in the description! Hopefully see you along the local paths one day!

I've been waiting for this for a while, then I forgot about it and stopped caring, then it pops up some time later and it's over an hour long 😂🤣 Classic Bloom!

Never did I ever think I'd sit and watch over an hour's worth of Drone review - but Philip Bloom's work is just so captivating. The excellent soft commentary, super creative use of the aerial shots along with the comparisons and settings makes it so that you can listen to an expert opinion about the tool - but at the same time you learn so much about how to actually USE the tool! Thanks! 🙌

Philip, to think that you took much of your holiday, while sick, to finish this movie...I can only say thank you so very much. Please take a well-deserved rest somewhere warm.

Excellent film. You nailed every concern I've had about the Mavic 3. It seems DJI keeps trying to give us less for more across all of their product lines, save the 4D. Hopefully Autel, Skydio, Alta, and X Dynamics can give DJI some proper competition. I personally find the X Dynamics Evolve 2 to be a much more interesting offering than the Mavic 3, and a better value as well. Thanks for the hard work and dedication. Good stuff as always!

Happy new year Philip! Great video, always great to hear your wealth of knowledge, and I'm glad you decided to share it with us all.

Hot damn this is a movie! Awesome. Thank you for taking the time to do this, Mr. Bloom.

Thanks for powering through Covid to get this much anticipated review out and continued good luck on your recovery.

I watched this from start to finish and I have to say.....GREAT job. I have a phantom 4 Pro and this helped me a lot. Thanks for all the hard work on this.

Absolute class, what a great watch! Very amusing and extremely informative. Let’s hope DJI take note of all your hard work and listen to the excellent suggestions.

Top review Philip, your dedication is truly amazing. I do hope they fix the cine mode as it is as frustrating as hell, I tend to overshoot movements with it and end up with terrible jerky footage. Let’s hope they pull a banger out of the bag like they did with the original Osmo action! Happy new year to you and 🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈

Love the comprehensive review and the humour! A masterpiece as always.

Great movie! Couldn't find it on imdb to rate it ;) I love the reviews you make, your style, your humor, your enormous effort! Thank you and I shall buy you a coffee!

Spot on with everything! One thing we noticed is that the 7x telephoto camera can be improved quite a bit in DaVinci Resolve Studio using the super scale feature, if you don't have Topaz video upscaling. We included some in a video on our channel. Thanks for this movie!

Happy New Year..Hope you are better ..Big THANK YOU is all i can say...for now i will keep my M2P and wait for M3P

All of your videos give us a great education on videography. I think the sharpness vs detail theme hit the mark. You also really put the Mavic 3 camera through some torture with almost every clip looking directly at the sun.

Good to know that you are better from the covid. As always great work, regards from Mexico and happy new year

Again: Fantastic! Thank you Philipp, for this wonderful piece of video :-) I think I will need to get some of your courses. Stay safe and healthy!

I was on a cource with you in Norway at the start of the DSLR movement, when you where King. We had to write an application and give out our CV to be elected to join the cource. The producer of the TV show I then worked for was not accepted, but I was - which infuriated him. But we did start to use DSLR in the filming, a big svare for the existing TV photographers that where hauling around giant cameras. Really nice to see you still do great quality work, and like you said, 3d hasn't taken of nearly as much as some predicted.

Happy New Year! Thank you for that great gift! Brilliant review!

Bravo on another really well done review. Thanks for saving me a bunch of money and gear lust. I'll stick to my M2P with Tripod Mode

Brilliant review Mr. Bloom, an hour went by like minutes. 👏 DJI Mavic 3 is a fantastic flying camera with so much potential but only limited by it's software! Like you I have enjoyed using the tele photo lens but why limit it just for the explore mode! Oversharpening, noise reduction and ofcourse the continous autofocus is a real bummer. Hope DJI watch this super critical review and work upon the feedbacks and much needed updates!! Thank you for this review and cheers 🍻

This video is amazing, and makes one point very well, that even after the initial firmware update, the M3 is still very much a work in progress, and we can only hope that DJI listens and provides the progress! I watch and read a lot on quadcopters and know that different people want to see different results with their photography and or editing. You are blessed with very good eyesight as I didn't always see the differences that you do, however, on the other hand I am 75, not your age. You are the consummate pro, and I enjoy and learn from your videos and information even if I can't always duplicate them.

Wow you have put so much effort into this video. I loved it! Great content ❤️

Thank you. This is what a proper review should be like. Really convinced me to put off spending all that cash on one of these for the time being. Think I'll be fine with the 2 pro for a while.

This is brilliant! Unbelievable that you were able to keep me watching for such a long time. 👌 😘

Thank you so much Philip, that's not a review it is really a friendly and trusted opinion by a professional using tools at it's maximum sharing the results with us. By the way I really don't understand if Prores vs h265 is really a big step up.

Just another amazing video, Philip! My vote at the Oscars for best documentary! (In all seriousness this should be mandatory Mavic 3 & General Drone Owner viewing.)

Watched every minute of this review. Thank you so much for all the time, effort and of course creativity you put into this review. It's a fair review of a drone with so much potential. I am working on a review of the Mavic 3 for Professional Photographer Magazine and I can tell you, I've had many of the same experiences you have. I applaud you for the thorough and entertaining review - I think you should do more of these. It's a refreshing change from the "reviews" of so many KZreadrs out there.

LMFAO THAT ENDING SCENE HAHAHAHA!!!! Amazing review Philip! Thanks for all your hard work.

Im still flying the P4 and this review has been unbelievable informative. Thank you so much. Im also deeply grieved to hear tripod mode is gone.........

So much detail. So very much appreciated. Re: the missed features in the Mavic 3, I suspect it's got a lot to do with culture. It's hard to say this without coming off as controversial, but I've been to China many times and worked for a Chinese-based company and they operate differently. They are capable of incredible things and are not averse to taking risks and pushing technology but they have a very different perspective when it comes to customer service and the relationship between customer service and brand loyalty. Despite many wanting certain features that are easy to implement at a firmware level rather than a hardware level, the concept of saving face plays a huge role. Implementing these changes can be seen as acknowledging an error or failure. Something that is culturally very, very difficult to swallow. I'd be very surprised if the Tripod Mode petition makes a difference but hey, I could be wrong! Here's hoping! Wishing you a Happy New Year Philip and I hope you have recovered from your sickness.

This is really entertaining and well made. Thanks for the effort and information. I like flying my M2P and probably won't be upgrading anytime soon especially after watching part 1 and this part.
