![]() ![]() ![]() If you are wondering if this is a smart move, consider that the new Panasonic GH5 has a mode that does the same thing. In this way, the final image is actually very stable. The trick is simple, and very effective, the 4K sensor captures the entire scene, but the actual recorded pixels are a smaller box that floats within that 4K area. It still has a 4K sensor, but it uses software techniques to maintain stability. This is where the Spark and the Mavic Pro greatly differ: the Mavic Pro shoots 4K video, using the gimbal to keep things stable. Luckily, it is still soft rubber mounted, so there are no jolts to speak of. It is able to tilt sideways a little and up and down a fair bit. The DJI Spark, on the other hand, only offers a 2-axis gimbal. Rubber mounts add to the stabilization by dampening any jolts in movement. What’s in a gimbal? Well, simply put, the Mavic Pro is equipped with a 3-axis gimbal, this is able to tilt, turn and rotate the camera in most directions in order to maintain silky smooth video. We believe this to be the same sensor as that in the DJI Mavic Pro, so this review should be really simple, right?!? Not so fast, same sensor or not, this is not the same camera, not at all. Housed in a horizontally mounted cylinder, the DJI Spark comes with a 12 MP camera sensor. Stay tuned for plenty more coverage of the new DJI Mavic Air. They serve very similar needs, with more than enough overlap in their capabilities you should consider carefully before buying one or the other. ![]() The DJI Mavic Air is more expensive than the Spark. We’ll get a video comparison together later, for now I can give you a quick Mavic Air camera sample here, to get you started. Compared to the Spark, which shoots in 1080p resolution, the Mavic Air records in 4K. The new drone uses the same size of camera sensor, but increases the bit rate from 60Mbps on the Mavic Pro to 100Mbps on the Mavic Air. The newly announced DJI Mavic Air combines the best that the DJI Spark and the DJI Mavic Pro have to offer. Join us for a thorough rundown of the image and video capabilities of the new DJI drone, this is our DJI Spark camera review. We know DJI has some top-notch camera drones, and we have lots of respect for the Mavic Pro, so it’s time to take a closer look. Marketing the new DJI Spark as a selfie drone, it stands to reason that the hand-sized flying machine should have a great camera. ![]()
