In terms of safety features, the Mavic Air 2S provides front, rear, bottom and top obstacle sensors that use binocular zooming technology to recognize objects from further away when traveling at speed. Also, when Advanced Pilot Assistance System (APAS) 4.0 is enabled, you can set it to stop the drone or to fly it autonomously around, under or over obstacles when they're detected, to help maintain continuous flight.

The most significant improvement in image quality over the Mavic 2 Pro has to be the high ISO noise handling of the Air 2S. Images shot at ISO 3200 are surprisingly clean for a drone, even one with a 1-inch sensor. It’s only at ISO 6400 where noise becomes more noticeable. In a nutshell, ISO handling is significantly better than the Mavic 2 Pro, which will make it possible to shoot at higher ISO settings, when necessary in low-light conditions, without having to deal with prominent chroma and luminance noise. In fact, the Air 2S blows the Mavic 2 Pro out of the water in this respect.And the O3+ video transmission technology? Well, it’s capable of maintaining a 1080p/60fps live feed from up to 15 km away with a latency as low as 120 ms. Just like the Mavic Air 2 Fly More Bundle, the Air 2S Fly More Bundle also includes four ND filters, so we'd recommend going for that if you can. Overall, we think the Air 2S is still one of the best drones you can buy, thanks to its combination of a large 1in sensor and compact, travel-friendly dimensions. It isn't quite as small as the DJI Mini 3 Pro, which is also a superb drone. But if you're into aerial footage, it's one of the best video cameras you can buy now. Read on for our full DJI Air 2S review. DJI Air 2S price and release date With MasterShots, you select a subject in the app by drawing a rectangle or square around it, then press the start button. The drone will then perform several maneuvers with a countdown timer showing its progress. The drone will automatically select a capture mode to shoot the video in, and then once it's complete you can then add themes in the DJI Fly app to create a video to share. Vision positioning requires non-reflective, discernable surfaces, and adequate lighting. Available at altitudes from 0.5-30 m. The vertical and horizontal positioning accuracy is within ±0.1 m. The Air 2S is a great drone with a one-inch CMOS sensor, 5.4K video, four-directional obstacle sensing, and autonomous features. It delivers on everything that most drone enthusiasts want.

Unobstructed, free of interference, and when FCC-compliant. Maximum flight range specification is a proxy for radio link strength and resilience. Always follow local rules and regulations and fly your drone within your visual line of sight unless otherwise permitted. Unobstructed, free of interference, and when FCC-compliant. Maximum flight range specification is a proxy for radio link strength and resilience.With OcuSync technology instead of Wi-Fi, the drone will offer pilots a video transmission distance of up to 12 km (8km in South Africa) allowing you to fly much further than before, and can also deliver 1080p FHD resolution live stream directly from the Mavic Air 2S drones camera.

However, there is a reason for this. The raw files from the Air 2S are so clean because, as DJI told us, 'temporal denoising technology' is applied to them to reduce high ISO noise. The results are fantastic, but it does raise an important question: is a raw file actually a raw file if any kind of processing is applied? Always follow local rules and regulations and fly your drone within your visual line of sight unless otherwise permitted. APAS 4.0 is not available while recording in 5.4K/30fps, 5.4K/25fps, 5.4K/24fps, 4K/60fps, 4K/50fps, 4K/48fps, 2.7K/60fps, 2.7K/50fps, 2.7K/48fps, 1080p/120fps. Intelligent HDR technology merges multiple shots automatically, increasing the dynamic range of images without the need for post-processing. That means more nuanced details in both the highlights and shadows for richer images with greater depth. The DJI Air 2S drone supports 2.4GHz dual-frequency communications that will enable a reliable signal and smooth flight. The signal will ensure that the flight experiences the lowest interference in real time which will significantly enhance the aircrafts anti-interference in challenging environments, leading to improved flight safety.

Do not fly or operate a drone or remotely piloted aircraft, toy or model aircraft higher than (120m) 400 ft from the ground, unless approved by the Director of Civil Aviation of the SACAA. DJI Air 2S provides an added layer of airspace safety with the industry-leading AirSense safety system. This receives Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) flight location information from airplanes and helicopters in your area that transmit ADS-B signals, displays those aircraft on a map, and provides audio and visual alerts through the DJI Fly app to help you keep the drone out of the way of those aircraft.

Another safety feature, which was first introduced to consumer drones with the Mavic Air 2, is AirSense. This feature uses ADS-B aviation technology to receive signals from nearby planes and helicopters, and displays their locations on the on-screen map on the DJI Fly app. Then there’s the GEO 2.0 geofencing system, which helps to keep the drone away from locations such as airports. Overall, DJI certainly has the safety angle covered with the Air 2S, though you'll of course need to heed the usual drone laws. It doesn’t matter how many bells and whistles you put on a drone, it’s the image quality that's often the most important feature. And the DJI Air 2S undoubtedly delivers here.Create stunning images and video quality with the DJI Air 2S Drone by capturing really impressive shots while soaring high, all thanks to a large 1-inch CMOS, 20MP camera. You never ever have to worry of bad quality again as the DJI Mavic Air 2S drone will ensure nothing but crystal clear stills and video quality. This relatively basic controller means that all camera controls –except releasing the shutter, switching from video to stills, and anything you program to the FN button – need to be done through the DJI Fly app. Featuring a 1-inch CMOS sensor, powerful autonomous functions, and a compact body weighing less than 600 g, DJI Air 2S is the ultimate drone for aerial photographers on the move. Take this all-in-one aerial powerhouse along anywhere to experience and record your world in stunning detail. Capture the allure of the world, even as it darkens.
