Since the release of the lightweight Mini 3 Pro in May, we have been aware that the Mini 3 was soon to follow, but it still seems like the wait has been worthwhile.
Similar in practically every way to the Pro model, the Mini 3 weighs only 248 g (8.75 oz), enabling it to fly unregistered in “many regions of the world.” It’s a little, incredibly light camera drone got the necessary items for different trips.
Take Cinematic Shots Every Time
The DJI Mini 3 takes photos over an efficient 4K or 30fps in HDR using colors that are real & authentic. The Type 1/1.3 CMOS sensor and a fixed f/1.7 aperture lens can boost low-light performance. The sensor’s design boasts pixels “as huge as 2.4 m.”
The creator insists, “Greater picture quality, enhanced depth of field, reduced photo sounds in low illumination & robust contrast can be done using this structure. As per the Mini 3’s sensor, “4-in1 pixel technology” is available for images with a resolution of up to 48 megapixels.

It implies that the 48MP sensor utilized in the DJI Mini 3 is a 48MP sensor meant to capture additional light by combining four pixels to function as a single pixel for the basic 12MP.
This method is used frequently in cameras and, depending on how the sensor is made, enables a camera to take images with a lower resolution but higher sensitivity or a higher resolution but lower sensitivity.
Within a short span, dual native ISO & chip-based HDR aids in picture-perfect images with great results, even in images using a high-end dynamic range similar to in-depth shadows. When using True Vertical Shooting can turn the camera 90° to produce data for social media sites, this great image quality leads to amazing outcomes.
Fly Longer & Further
According to claims, the Mini 3 can capture stable pictures while hovering steadily in gusts up to 10.7m/s. With the regular battery, DJI promises a maximum flying length of 38 minutes (when traveling at a steady 21.6 kph) and up to 51 minutes with the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus, an additional component that isn’t offered everywhere.
The Mini 3 can collect automatically preset QuickShots, just like other current DJI drone models, to create a variety of standard movie shots taken from a helicopter. Dronie, Helix, Rocket, Circle & Boomerang can be executed by Mini 3.
The DJI Mini 3 got the O2 digital transmission device from the firm to send a live 720p or 30fps feed around 10 km distant. The maximum download speed for a QuickTransfer system is 25 MB/s.
The drone has an autonomous takeoff feature and a return-to-home feature. Additional Return To Home (RTH) modes for the DJI Mini 3 include Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH, which sends the drone home in the event of a controller signal loss.
Even in winds up to 10.7 m/s, hovering stability is achieved by combining GNSS with a downfacing vision system and IR sensors. A subject can be locked on, and the pilot can use pre-programmed flying patterns to capture artistic footage.
Seven variations of the DJI Mini 3 are available for purchase via store.dji.com and authorized retail partners. The Drone solo is offered at a suggested retail price of 469 USD.
