With the DJI Air 3S I make very sharp and clear images. It has 2 cameras for different angles. Because it is heavier than 250 grams, I need a drone course to fly it.
Drone course needed
I have already tested a number of small drones, but now it is the DJI Air 3S's turn. This drone is heavier than the DJI Mini drones, which means I need a drone course to be allowed to fly it. I have taken this course and obtained my drone certificate. Due to its higher weight, I find the Air 3S less suitable for traveling. It takes up more space in my bag and it becomes heavy when I carry it with me all day. I do think it feels sturdy. It is not easily carried away by the wind.
High image quality
The videos I record with the Air 3S are very detailed and clear. It has a relatively large 1 inch sensor that captures a lot of light. At the time I am testing this drone, it is cloudy outside. This means there is little daylight, but my shots still look clear. When the sun comes through, I notice that the camera has a large dynamic range. I see a lot of detail in both the light parts of the image and the dark parts.
Two cameras
With the 2 cameras I switch between wide-angle images and more zoomed-in shots. I do not lose any image quality. For example, I capture a vast landscape with the large angle of view of the 24mm lens. Scottish highlanders walk in the meadow near my house, I zoom in on them with the 70mm lens. This way I capture the animals larger, without flying towards them with my drone. This way I disturb them less in their natural environment.
Fly More Combo
With the Fly More Combo I receive a nice bag with various accessories. It contains 3 batteries, extra propellers and a remote control. I have the Smart Controller with a built-in screen. I find this useful, because I do not need my phone while flying. The screen is very bright. Even when the sun is shining, I can see what is on the screen well. I also find the screen large, so I can see details well.
