The Mavic 2 is better in almost every way than the two-year-old Mavic Pro. It flies for longer, offers more shooting modes, has all-round obstacle detection and its controller has removable sticks.
If you already have a Mavic Pro, it’s hard to justify upgrading as overall video quality – from the Zoom at least – is roughly the same. The zoom lens is well worth having, though, and if you’re coming from a Phantom, the portability will be the deal-maker.

Filming groups of people with drones can be tricky due to the minimum flying distances required by law, but the Mavic 2 Zoom solves this thanks to its optical zoom lens. Its smaller 12MP 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor means its overall image quality isn't quite up to the level of the Mavic 2 Pro, but it isn't far off and can shoot both Raw stills and video. Throw in DJI's sophisticated flight modes and the Mavic 2 Zoom's lightweight, foldable design and you have a drone that remains one of the best and most versatile out there.
