Guys,
First world problem if there ever was one: I'm torn between the two (Mavic and P4P). I've researched and weighted the benefits of both models and I'm still teetering between them both.
Usage: I bike/hike and generally love the outdoors so the main purpose is to take arials and stills of the places I visit.
I realize that the Mavic image quality is nothing to be scoffed at, and the form factor is alien tech as far as I'm concerned, however P4P's flight characteristics (safety/reliability/performance) + the image quality seems to offset the portability advantage.
Price point is obviously a factor but I'm ok spending an additional 500-700 if the value/quality scales. But I'm not buying both.
So, anyone here faced the same conundrum? What was your tipping point?
P.S. Shipping / order wait times are a non-factor for me.
Edit: Just realized I posted this in the P4 sub (instead of the P4P) - sorry for ruffled feathers (if any) - new to the forums
