DJI Mavic 4 Pro Unlocks Shots from Any Angle for Aerial Narrators

May 13th, 2025 - DJI, the global leader in civilian drones and creative camera technology, today introduces the DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Featuring a brand new 100MP Hasselblad sensor and large CMOS dual tele cameras housed in an Infinity Gimbal with 360° rotation, a 51-minute maximum flight time, improved Omnidirectional Obstacle Sensing and 30km HD Video Transmission, the Mavic 4 Pro is a real game-changer for creators to push their content to new levels.

“When we launched the previous model this was the first drone with a triple camera combination allowing content creators to switch between shot composition with just one tap,” said Ferdinand Wolf, Product Experience Director at DJI. “The Mavic 4 Pro’s innovative 360° rotation Infinity Gimbal goes one step further and offers even more shooting options. We’re really looking forward to seeing how people experiment with their shots and the cinematic possibilities that this opens up.”

Three Cameras on Just One Drone

The Mavic 4 Pro has an advanced triple camera system with focal lengths of 28mm, 70mm and 168mm, enabling shot capture from expansive wide-angle landscapes to detailed telephoto close-ups. All three cameras boast Dual Native ISO Fusion, seamlessly blending the benefits of high and low ISO settings and RAW stacking of up to 5 frames, along with features like Free Panoramas and Subject Focusing to facilitate high consistency image quality.

The main 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad camera utilizes a brand new 100MP sensor and supports the renowned Hasselblad Natural Color Solution (HNCS) for exceptional color fidelity. It captures breathtaking 100MP images packed with detail, sharpness and offers unprecedented flexibility in post-processing. A versatile f/2.0 to f/11 aperture allows for clean low-light filming, while also rendering eye-catching 10-ray starburst effects.

Equipped with a 48MP 1/1.3-inch sensor and f/2.8 aperture, the 70mm medium tele camera delivers enhanced image quality due to its new image processing engine. The 70mm focal length can be used to create compressed perspectives which highlight subjects, ideal for dynamic portraits and footage with orbital camera movements.

Powered by a 50MP 1/1.5-inch sensor and a wide f/2.8 aperture, the 168mm tele camera leverages a specifically optimized gimbal algorithm tailored for its telephoto optics to deliver unparalleled image quality and stability in long-range aerial photography. Its extended reach dramatically reduces depth perception and creates a flattened perspective that isolates subjects with remarkable clarity. Combined with Subject Focusing, capturing breathtaking close-ups becomes effortless. Additionally, it captures incredibly detailed Free Panoramas, revealing expansive skylines when zoomed out and intricate cityscapes when zoomed in.

Pro Grade Video for All

While all three cameras support 4K/60fps HDR video recording, the Hasselblad main camera goes even further, offering 6K/60fps HDR video and an impressive dynamic range of up to around 16 stops1. The medium tele and tele cameras offer dynamic ranges of 14 stops and 13 stops respectively.

For those looking to add dramatic tension and visual impact by slowing things down, both the Hasselblad main camera and the medium tele camera support 4K/120fps video recording, while the tele camera records in 4K/100fps1.

Consistent color reproduction across footage is ensured with all three cameras featuring 10-bit D-Log, D-Log M, and HLG color profiles.

Break Boundaries with the 360° Infinity Gimbal

Never seen before on a DJI drone, the Mavic 4 Pro introduces an innovative gimbal capable of full 360° rotation1 and 70° upward shots for unprecedented angles. Capture dramatic ‘Dutch angles’ straight from the camera or reimagine aerial storytelling with fluid, gravity-defying movements.

Even Safer in Low-Light

Six high-performance, low-light fisheye sensors and dual processors grant the Mavic 4 Pro high-resolution environmental awareness. It can achieve omnidirectional obstacle avoidance at speeds up to 18 m/s in low light. Whether navigating through canyons or urban landscapes with poor satellite signals, this high-performance visual system ensures precise drone positioning. Furthermore, powered by real-time vision positioning and map construction technologies, Mavic 4 Pro memorizes flight paths when adequate lighting is available and can return to home without GPS1.

The Mavic 4 Pro features ActiveTrack 360°1 which excels even in low-light scenarios delivering cinematic tracking with enhanced stability. Once tracking begins, Mavic 4 Pro can keep a subject in focus even if partially obscured by bushes or if they are standing on a bridge. It also detects vehicles up to 200m1 with directional awareness, ideal for delivering professional-grade automotive cinematography.

Pushing the Limits of Flight Capability

Mavic 4 Pro’s aerodynamic design, efficient propulsion system, and 95Wh battery deliver flight times of up to 51 minutes, top speeds of up to 90 kph, and a range of 41 km (25.4 miles) 1. Whether locations are being scouted, maneuvers practiced, time-lapses are being captured, or panoramic photos are being taken with a telephoto lens, users have ample flight time to operate with ease and confidence.

The full potential of the Mavic 4 Pro’s hardware is unlocked with its DJI O4+ transmission system, which leverages next-generation proprietary algorithms. It enables ultra-long-range 10-bit HDR image transmission up to 30 km (18.6 miles) 1, reducing the likelihood of disconnection in environments with high interference, such as urban areas.

A new Pro Remote for a Pro Drone

To accompany the Mavic 4 Pro, the DJI RC Pro 2 remote controller has been created for a professional-grade aerial filmmaking experience. It has a powerful 7-inch high-bright Mini-LED display to deliver stunning visuals, rotatable screen to instantly sync with the drone’s gimbal for vertical shooting and a HDMI port. The enterprise-level multibeam high-gain antennas ensures ultra-reliable video transmission and the integrated collapsible design enables the RC Pro 2 to power on when extended. Furthermore, it has an up to 4-hour battery life, 128gb built-in storage and high-quality audio can be recorded with the built-in mic or when paired with the DJI Mic series1. From design to experience, DJI RC Pro 2 is the ultimate companion for the Mavic 4 Pro and other DJI camera drones.

Batteries at the Ready with Efficient Parallel Charging

With the DJI Mavic 240W Power Adapter1, the Mavic 4 Pro Parallel Charging Hub fully charges one battery in around 50 minutes and can charge three batteries at the same time via the Mini SDC port. The Parallel Charging Hub boosts efficiency by prioritizing the battery with the lowest charge. Once all three batteries reach the same charge level, it switches to parallel charging, fully charging all three batteries in just 90 minutes1.

By leveraging the batteries' stored power, the Parallel Charging Hub can also transform into a 100W power bank, providing a convenient way to fast-charge phones and laptops on location. Additionally, it features a power accumulation function, which allows you to transfer the remaining power of multiple low-power batteries into the battery with the highest remaining power1.

Convenience as Standard

Content can be captured straightaway without the need for an external memory card as the DJI Mavic 4 Pro standard version comes with a 64 GB storage module1. For those wanting more memory space the Mavic 4 Pro in the Creator Combo features a built-in 512 GB high-capacity storage and also supports high-spec ALL-I 4:2:2 encoded video recording.

With DJI’s QuickTransfer, there's no need to take the drone1 and controller out of the bag to transfer footage. Simply wake Mavic 4 Pro remotely via the DJI Fly app, and transfer files at speeds up to 80MB/s1 over Wi-Fi 6. Even when switching apps, the DJI Fly app continues downloading smoothly in the background. To easily transfer footage to a computer, simply connect the drone to a computer via a compatible USB cable without needing to power on the drone.
