You should parse this mosaic out into individual photos so that we can examine them individually.

An unscientific comparison of Inspire X5 lenses to the Phantom 4 Pro, Mavic 2 Pro, and Mavic 2 Zoom from the same distance at 100' AGL and ISO 100. Where possible, I kept the aperture at f/5.6.
All photos taken as DNG and post-processed in Lightroom and exported as 100% JPGs.

No point in comparing pics taken in daylight. Try a higher ISO, and you'll see the difference.
