DJI drones are versatile for photography and really fun to fly. Their newest model, the DJI Mavic Air 2, can film in 4K at 60 frames per second! That is seriously amazing. It can reach amazing heights, speeds, and distances, so it’s much more than a toy. However, when used responsibly it elevates your senses—you’ll feel like you’re a bird in the sky! Read more about the newest drone in the DJI family, then enter for a chance to win the demo model that we had reviewed on the blog.

What can you do with a drone

A drone is more than just a flying camera. It does fly; and it has a camera. But fly a drone and suddenly you realize this is a very unique experience. First there is the feeling of lift-off—you’ll never forget that surge of excitement. Remember you are in control, elevating, tilting, drifting to the left and right. There is a learning curve, but it’s not steep; quickly you adjust your perspective to react appropriately to capture the bird’s eye view of your surroundings. If you are able to use it near your home, you’ll will gain a new appreciation for the world around you. For me, rising about ten metres above my house allowed me to capture a view of several gulf islands including Saltspring and Pender.

DJI packs their drones with amazing features

With the new DJI Mavic Air 2, you will be able to do so much more than you might think from the moment you turn it on. It is so easy to use. We sent the prize for this contest to Shelly to test it out and she was amazed that she instantly was able to capture smooth, professional looking videos, right out of the box. Watch her video to see some of the images of her farm taken with the drone.

Shelly shows what’s included with the drone, how to assemble the drone, and offers some tips on how to fly it. She also speaks to many of the unique features that enable you to do some really interesting things with simple menu selections. I love the Helix Quickshot function!

The Mavic Air 2 has many features to help you get the most from flying it. It can even help you find safe flying areas near your home. This is very important; you will want to be sure about what areas near you allow drones and if there are maximum height restrictions too. You should read Shelly’s article for a more in-depth descripton of some of the key features that she tested. Be sure to return to this page to learn what you need to do to enter our contest.

  1. I like when you have 20% of your battery there is a feature to return home. This would be so useful and also the battery life is accurate.

  4. This is the best feature by far “Rechargeable 3500mAh lithium-ion battery gives you 34 minutes run time”
    34 minutes is perfect for getting airborne and getting that perfect photo at “48MP” or a video at “8K hyperlapse, 4K Ultra HD/60fps, and 1080p/240fps”
    This one great prize!!

    • I would love to see the video since it has such amazing features like 4K at 60 frames per second. Making the videos I wanna take so much better!

  6. You could make neat mountain biking videos and cycling videos with the auto follow feature. Also it has great recording quality.

  9. I have always wanted to buy a drone and the DJI Mavic drones are known to be the best out there. With the DJI Mavic Air 2 filming at 4K at 60 frames per second, you cannot get better than that!

  13. I already shoot with action cameras; the next exciting step for me is to expand my horizons and shoot with a drone like the DJI Mavic Air 2 as it shoots in 4K 60, has autofollow with obstacle avoidance, and is easy to fly with the Adavanced Pilot Assist System.

  14. I am eager to try the Spotlight, Active Track, and Point of Interest controls as well as the obstacle avoidance feature. This DJI Mavic Air 2 Drone would be so much fun to fly and film my husband on his dirt biking off road adventures.

  19. The features in the Mavic Air 2 I am eager to try are the automatic landing and auto-follow.

  22. The ability to Auto-Follow someone while they’re doing stunts or whatever they’re doing is so useful!

  27. I like the feautre Auto-follow which lets you lock onto a subject and follow them. I also like that it can go 64kph.

  36. As a family and wedding photographer I’ve been dreaming of one of these for so long! I especially am excited about the1/2″ CMOS sensor and SmartPhoto, Hyperlight, Panorama, and HDR capabilities! The ISO range would be especially appreciated for low light situations. I have yet to try a drone for my photography however if I have the chance, this would be my first choice.

  41. Avoiding obstacles is always tough, nice to have technology to help as well as the auto landing feature

  44. I love the obstacle avoidance, I would be scare to crash it the first time without that !

  50. this is my dream drone _ I just started a you tube channel and this would be a perfect addition to my set up and work its packed with great teck so its hard to choose what I love best but if I had to choose one thing being able to change camera filters
