Looks legit...
Spoiler: DJI Mavic Air revealed day early with 4K, 21 min flight time, 3 colors

DJI doesn't announce it until tomorrow so who knows, we'll have to just wait and see.

DJI is going to announce it here tomorrow at 10 AM EST. Stay tuned

Yeah I know. That's my point.

$1,000 worth of air. Lol

Looks real. Cool. Looks more like a Spark spec wise though. Camera looks quite bad.

A Spark/Mavic hybrid of sorts. It might have it's use, but I certainly hope the Phantom line get's a serious upgrade later this year.

Yeah they bested the P4P with the Mavic....32mb camera???

 

[UpLift Aerial]

I have to admit... even though the DJI Mavic Air has those awesome specs, it doesn't look like a "professional" drone to me. Looks more like a toy. Just my thoughts.

Yeah, the 32mp camera surprised me too.

Yeah, the 32mp camera surprised me too.

More likely 12. 32 is for panoramas (ie creative marketing). I shot some 300mpix panoramas with my p4p this weekend so this is probably not a upgrade.

I think i would prefer the mavic as it has become a well proven drone, not that i will be buying

That's not a 32MP camera and it's nowhere near matching a P4 pro.
It's 32-megapixel panorama mode (not a 32mp camera)

Awesome specs? It's expected to sell for $699 and is pitched between the Spark and Mavic

3mp and 1/2.3 would probably mean higher noise lower ISO and lower DR?

Awesome specs for what the drone looks to be is what I meant. I don't think its anywhere NEAR the Mavic pro. Although they do say it will have front and back obstacle avoidance, AND 4K @ 60FPS!

It Is most likely around 12mpix. 3 would have a great noise-profile but I assume you mean the debunked 32mpix.

Known possible specs...

• 32-megapixel panorama mode (not a 32mp camera)
• 1/2.3 CMOS sensor and new ISP (Image Signal Processor)
• 4K video spec @ 60fps
• 3-way gimbal (upgrade from 2-way on Spark)
• Four foldable legs like the current Mavic Pro
• Obstacle-avoidance sensors in the front, bottom, and back
• Equipped with a VPS – Visual Positioning System for better control, hovering and indoor flying
• Gesture control
• 21-minute flight time
• It will be available in different matte colors: white, black and red we’ve seen so far
• Compatible with DJI Goggles

4K @60FPS Is pretty darn good for that.

It will be interesting what bitrate and codec that 4K/60 is. As we have seen, results are lacking with 100mbit / h264 (p4p/p4a)

Getting tired of these little toy drones they keep putting out. When will the phantom 5 be released for us that are into the more professional models??
