You can then upload them to YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. Here you can quickly edit videos (highlights are chosen automatically) and music is automatically added. Via the app you can view videos stored on the quad’s microSD card and download short clips to use in the Director part of the app. 4K footage is good, though, and certainly the best we’ve seen from any consumer drone. Most people are unlikely to notice it, though.Īlthough the Phantom 3 Professional can record at bitrates of up to 60Mb/s don’t expect the level of quality you’d get from a CSC such as the Panasonic GH4. The narrower 94-degree lens means there’s much less image distortion than on the Phantom 2 Vision+ but it’s not completely absent. The quality isn’t a patch on the excellent 4K footage (which can be recorded to the drone’s SD card simultaneously) but it’s pretty good. Since the Phantom records video but not audio, you can add a soundtrack via your mobile device’s microphone – ideal for commentary of what the audience is seeing. Talking of 720p, the app lets you stream footage at this resolution straight to YouTube. But it can also record 4096×2160 if you prefer.įor higher framerates up to 60fps, there’s also a choice of 1080p and 720p. For 4K, it will shoot at 24-, 25- and 30fps at the usual 16:9 3840×2160 resolution. You can pick between various resolutions and frame rates, as well as white balance, shutter speed, ISO and more. It still gives you plenty of control, though. The app’s interface is simpler than the interface you get with the Inspire 1. As it’s a different voltage, you can’t use any batteries from the Phantom 2. It could be that you’ll get the full 23 if there’s no wind at all, but more than likely you’ll want to order a spare battery. It will also automatically land when it hits 10 percent remaining – preferable to cutting out mid-air when the battery is completely depleted (you may have seen another YouTube video covering that eventuality).īattery life is claimed to be 23 minutes with the new battery, but we found it was a few minutes less than that. The quad always knows how far it is from the controller and how much power is needed to get back so will automatically initiate the return process when the battery runs down to the critical point. There’s the same return-to-home function as before. The only difference between the two is the We tested the Professional, which you canīuy from FirstPersonView but much of this review applies to the £899 Advanced version as well. There are three models of the Phantom 3: Standard, Advanced and Professional. It’s frustrating to have to pay a premium, but there are no guarantees aftermarket batteries will work. Yet another benefit is a thriving thriving third-party market for things like carry cases and other accessories – and means there’s often cheaper alternatives to official spares such as propellors.We don’t recommend straying from the official DJI batteries, though. Second, there’s an SDK which means developers can build new apps for the Phantom 3 which in turn means there will be even more features in the not-too-distant future. This is important because it means several things. The Phantom 3 is manufactured by the most popular consumer drone maker in the world. DJI Phantom 3 Professional & Advanced review
