Hi folks, I've owned a couple of DJI Minis (1 & 2) but it was time for an upgrade. At the top of my list of requirements was the inclusion of variable aperture for fine control over exposure and shutter angle. Not even the Air 2S has variable aperture, so I was eyeing the Mavic 3 Classic. Every time I looked at that price it punched me in the gut.
Lo and behold, Costco in the US started carrying the Evo Lite+. I started doing my research and yes, it does have variable aperture! Even better, Costco was selling the Premium bundle + 1 extra battery (4 total) at $999. Even so, I was waffling. While I was still undecided, they went on sale an additional $150. So, $849 total for the Premium Bundle +1 extra battery for $10 more than they were asking for the DJI Mini 3 Pro bundle (3 batteries, no case). That's all it took. I've had the Lite+ for almost a week now and am very impressed.
Anyhow, sorry if discussing price here is tacky, but that's my story. Happy flying!
