[QUOTE="spartavel, post: 53266, member: 10896"] The Anafi has a camera around 24mm like the Mavic Air and Spark. You don't get straight lines right from the hardware by using this kind of optics(24mm is wide angle) and by the way the horizon should never be straight on earth, above the ground. :) When you correct a wide angle to straighten the lines by software it may result in a very wrong flat picture. What would be interesting is to see if the Sony sensor has contained noise, especially in lower light, and if the optics renders all the 21MP in a sunny day. This is really what needs to be seen and which will make the value of the Anafi. Also test the battery real world autonomy. Another feature is the 4K movie with all the features like zooming in and anti-shake features. have to see how the 4K quality is. With option for low compression and best quality if needed. Good quality 4K movie makes 8M pixel image extraction possible. Found that review: [URL="https://www.stuff.tv/parrot/anafi/review"]Parrot Anafi[/URL] However the samples are resized to 16MP and over compressed with artefacts by the author. Since they have a beta, they may be on non-disclosure. The original pics seem to show very good optics on all the image. Not that I'm dissatisfied from the Spark but the Parrot seem a lot better regarding photos and movies even compared to Mavic Air and Pro. I have bought the spark for distraction (I do like all those kind of gadgets) but also marginal professional use, when I can't get good photos from the ground. So the better the picture, with more details, the better it is for me, because I can crop inside it and still get a usefull image. In this regard I consider the 12MP Spark equal to Mavic Air and Pro (but there are leaks of a Mavic Pro 2 with 20MP too). [/QUOTE]
