Dnd future doesn't look good. Their star product is not as advanced as the new DJI mavic pro. The new gopro 5 don't have new amazing features (5k, raw recording, much better dynamic range etc.), it's mostly a small bump from the 4 series.
Unless you are a total GoPro fan, there's no reason you would buy the newly released products.
- odbol_ 10y agoDoes the Mavic pro have a detachable camera stabilizer? That's the reason I would buy GoPro's drone.
- mtw 10y agoThe Mavic Pro doesn't have one. You are right, a gimbal is a very smart addition. Put it on the backpack for skiiing or on a bike to record smooth rides. My biggest problem however is the lack of "intelligent" flying with GoPro's drone. Most people overestimate their flying skills. It's very easy to have a collision, loose your done. It's also difficult to do subject tracking. Many find themselves with a broken drone after just a week of use. On the other hand, the Mavic Pro has their most advanced visualisation technology + sensors to make your job easy. If you are confident with the GoPro drone, I would recommend purchasing it from a store with a liberal return/exchange policy. Try it for one week and record a few videos. And then compare with the mavic pro
- agumonkey 10y agoI don't know what market they want, but I never heard mavic outside of a few web pages. On the other hand gopro is becoming synonymous with small and sturdy camera. Maybe mavic will end up buying the brand.
