I took my new DJI Air 2S down to Morro Bay to give it a workout. I was
surprised to find the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dredge “Yaquina” clearing
sand build up from the harbor entrance. So here is a still, and a video shot
with the DJI Air 2S.

The video shot at 4K 30fps, and rendered at 1080P to save on file size for
sharing.

I was down at Morro Bay again today, so I shot from a different location
North of the harbor entrance along Morro Strand State Beach.

Still using the DJI Air 2S with video shot at 4K 30fps with shared rendering
at 1080P.

Hugely impressive - must have cost a fortune to get anything approaching that
quality pre-drone.


$1,299 fro the “Fly More Combo” which adds extra batteries and props. The standard Air 2S with one battery, and a pair of spare props is $999.

Small thing, and I'm not sure if it's related to my computer (reasonably up to
date Mac, playing in a browser), but there seems to be slight 'judder' as the
camera pans, say around 30 - to 40s.


I have to adjust the yaw setting to tune up that smoothness.
