DJI Mavic 4 Pro Soars Ahead with 100MP Power

The DJI Mavic 4 Pro has officially landed, and it’s far more than just an upgrade. DJI, the global trailblazer in drone technology, has launched a next-gen drone that shatters expectations and redefines aerial creativity. With a 100MP Hasselblad sensor, triple-camera setup, a revolutionary 360° rotating gimbal, and an extraordinary 51-minute flight time, the DJI Mavic 4 Pro is the definitive tool for creators looking to elevate their content—literally and artistically.

Three Powerful Cameras, One Revolutionary Drone

At the heart of the DJI Mavic 4 Pro is a triple camera system designed for unmatched creative flexibility:

• Main Camera (28mm): A cutting-edge 100MP 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad sensor delivers staggering detail and clarity, while supporting a dynamic aperture from f/2.0 to f/11. It also features Hasselblad’s renowned Natural Colour Solution (HNCS), ensuring vivid, true-to-life colours.
• Medium Telephoto (70mm): With a 48MP 1/1.3-inch sensor and an f/2.8 aperture, this lens excels at isolating subjects with a natural, cinematic compression—perfect for portraits or sweeping landscape cuts.
• Telephoto (168mm): This 50MP, 1/1.5-inch sensor camera offers crisp, stabilised long-range shots, thanks to a gimbal algorithm tailored specifically for telephoto capture. Its Free Panorama mode makes cityscapes and vistas look even more breathtaking.

Each camera supports Dual Native ISO Fusion and RAW stacking, providing outstanding image quality in varying lighting conditions. Together, they offer unmatched versatility—switching from wide-angle to extreme close-ups in seconds, all within a single flight.

6K HDR Video, Starbursts and Cinematic Slow-Mo

While all three cameras shoot in 4K/60fps HDR, the main Hasselblad camera elevates the game with 6K/60fps HDR recording and up to 16 stops of dynamic range. The 70mm and 168mm cameras support 14 and 13 stops, respectively.

For slow-motion lovers, the Mavic 4 Pro delivers silky 4K/120fps on the main and medium tele cameras, and up to 4K/100fps on the telephoto. Whether capturing action scenes, automotive runs, or nature in motion, every frame is smooth, sharp, and colour-accurate with 10-bit D-Log, D-Log M, and HLG colour profiles available across all three cameras.

The Infinity Gimbal: Full Rotation, Infinite Possibilities

DJI introduces its most groundbreaking gimbal yet—the Infinity Gimbal. Capable of full 360° rotation and 70° upward angles, it lets creators break free from traditional camera movements. Capture ‘Dutch angles’ in-flight, simulate rotating shots without editing, or dive into impossible angles with smooth stability. It’s a filmmaker’s dream in a compact drone form.

Safety That Goes Beyond Sight

Flying safer, especially in complex environments, is a core focus of the Mavic 4 Pro. Six ultra-sensitive fisheye sensors work in concert with dual processors to deliver omnidirectional obstacle sensing, even in low light, at speeds of up to 18 m/s. Thanks to real-time vision positioning and flight path memory, the drone can even return home without GPS—an invaluable tool in dense cities or remote terrain.

With ActiveTrack 360°, the drone locks on to subjects with cinematic precision—even through visual obstructions or difficult lighting. It can detect vehicles up to 200 metres away, making it ideal for dramatic automotive shoots or action-packed sequences.

Performance to Match the Specs

• Flight Time: Up to 51 minutes
• Top Speed: 90 kph
• Maximum Range: 41 km
• Transmission: DJI O4+ system allows for 30 km of 10-bit HDR image transmission with minimal interference

This flight performance is made possible by aerodynamic design enhancements, a 95Wh battery, and DJI’s most efficient propulsion system to date. Whether you’re scouting locations, creating time-lapses, or executing complex shots, the DJI Mavic 4 Pro gives you the freedom to fly longer and further.

DJI RC Pro 2: Built for Pros

To complement the drone, DJI has introduced the RC Pro 2 controller. Key features include:

• 7-inch Mini-LED Display with stunning brightness and detail
• Rotating Screen for instant vertical shooting
• HDMI Output and built-in mic with 128GB internal storage
• Enterprise-grade transmission with multi-beam high-gain antennas
• Up to 4 hours of battery life

It’s a one-stop control centre that aligns with the needs of professional content creators—both in the sky and in post-production.

Power, Storage and Transfer—Streamlined

With the DJI 240W Power Adapter and Parallel Charging Hub, users can charge three batteries efficiently, prioritising the lowest charged battery first. In just 90 minutes, all batteries can be fully charged.

The charging hub doubles as a 100W power bank, perfect for on-location charging of laptops and phones. It can also combine power from multiple depleted batteries into one with the power accumulation feature—a handy tool when travelling light.

Storage-wise, the standard model includes 64GB built-in, while the Creator Combo bumps this to 512GB of ultra-fast memory. For video professionals, support for ALL-I 4:2:2 recording ensures studio-grade quality right from the drone.

Seamless Workflow with QuickTransfer

QuickTransfer enables creators to start transferring files directly from the bag—no need to power on the drone or take it out. Just use the DJI Fly app, wake the drone remotely, and enjoy Wi-Fi 6 speeds up to 80MB/s. Even if you switch apps, the transfer continues in the background. Want to move files to your laptop? Plug it in via USB-C and you’re done—no power-up needed.
