I am trying to get into the hobby but also potentially do professional work down the line as I will be getting my Part 107, I am planning on doing things like rooftop inspections and photogrammetry. I know that most people recommend the DJI Mini Pro 3 for prosumers. Will the DJI Mini 3 Pro actually cut it for a pro shoot? I really am almost thinking Mavic 2 Pro, just because the software ecosystem is mature for mapping with waypoints, also it seems to have really good obstacle avoidance/that full size airframe for wind resistance and stable shots. Does the mini size really make much of a difference? Should I be going with something that has an extra n00b mode like the Parrot Anafi (I know most people consider it a toy bc 2 axis gimbal)?
I ended up getting an Air 2S, I am going to do a lot of photogrammetry with it hopefully

Not survey grade but still useful, with a good GPS fix like you get with a Geode 2 or something, and enough ground control points, it can get under a foot. Once I get the part 107 I am going to rent a GPS unit and map a property that a nonprofit owns, for decision support and they will hire a PLS they know when they decide what to build. They also want promo footage of the site. But yes I would have to upgrade to an enterprise multispectral level drone to get even a real vegetation map done and would need RTK and GCPs together to get survey grade stuff but I also am not a PLS so I think I can wait on that.
