Yes. DJI Matrice is huge and can't fit in a backpack. There are lots of big drones that can carry production video cameras for movies and such.

This is the size of your forearm when packed up.

This is my first and only expensive drone so far. Got it for $400 a couple years back.

Yes it's easy to fly because it's GPS stabilized so it hovers when you're not touching anything. There are no safety sensors (except the bottom kinda, but that's for landing) so DJI is better in that sense.

I do really like the 180° gimbal and there's a 360° photo mode that takes 30 pictures and joins them together. Takes 2 minutes, but worth it. The major complaint I have is that the exposure is a bit off so bright skies are white in some of my 360 photos. If recommend getting a lens filter to tone it down.

Is this a good drone for beginner? The reviews on Amazon seem to be decent.

I can't comment on the Parrot, but the Mavic Mini is probably the best intro drone. Incredible tech, small package, and a similar price point

Depends on your abilities. Mavic Mini is a beginner drone. Anafi is not by far. If someone thought they were looking for a serious entry to flying cameras they would out grow Mini quickly.

The one anomaly to this is the Mini 2 has vastly more range. Like way more than a beginner should have. Anafi doesn't have a lot of range beyond visual line of sight but has many autonomous functions so it's kind of moot. It has plenty of range if flown legally.

I fly both, each has a place. Anafi deploys much faster.

Lmao. Is there a non-portable drone?
Yes. DJI Matrice is huge and can't fit in a backpack. There are lots of big drones that can carry production video cameras for movies and such.

Portable to me means foldable, and carried comfortably in one hand. I mean you can carry an Xbox around but you'd rather carry a Nintendo switch.

Woot also has the "Extended" version for $440 but this is the better deal IMO, the drone itself is worth the $290, let alone all the perks they throw in like the case and free Adobe Creative

Can the 30 photos be saved as DNG format when I do the 360 Pano?

Good question... I don't think so but I can check.

EDIT: The only image option is JPEG RECT for panoramas. You can enable HDR mode and select +/- 3 exposure value though.

Something else to note is that stitching is done in the app so you have to spend another minute with the drone on (can be landed) to transfer 200MB of photos locally to then process the stitch from your phone. Or you can put the SD card in your phone and move the files manually. Or do the stitching with another program on a PC as you have all the individual images.
It is very customizable in app though with multiple 360° options or you can take a single photo where you can zoom in or out and crop to any spot in the pano.

Just picked one up. This'll be my first drone. I don't think I'll be serious and use it regularly, but will be cool for trips. Thanks for posting. If anyone has one of these, can you comment how refurb units are vs. new? That's the only thing I'm somewhat nervous about, but I've gotten other refurb electronics and they turn out okay.
