DJI Mavic 4 Pro Released with Remarkable Features

After months of anticipation and leaks, DJI has finally unveiled its flagship drone, the Mavic 4 Pro. Set to redefine the drone industry, this drone is built to meet the needs of both professional cinematographers and passionate enthusiasts alike.

However, U.S. buyers are left with some uncertainty as it won’t be immediately available due to ongoing tariff issues, but for those in other regions, this drone is already set to take the skies.

Spinning Camera

At the heart of the Mavic 4 Pro lies a camera system that promises unparalleled image quality and versatility. The main camera boasts a massive 100 MP 4/3 CMOS sensor, developed by Hasselblad, which captures stunningly detailed images. Whether you’re shooting in 6K at 60 fps, 4K at 120 fps for smooth slow-motion, or capturing breathtaking stills with remarkable clarity, the Mavic 4 Pro ensures that your footage stands out.

But that’s not all—the Mavic 4 Pro introduces a new triple-camera setup, which includes a 48 MP medium telephoto camera (equivalent to a 70mm focal length) and a 50 MP telephoto camera (equivalent to a 168mm focal length). Whether you’re after sweeping vistas or need to isolate subjects with long-range zoom, the Mavic 4 Pro offers endless creative possibilities.

The camera features a variable aperture, ranging from f/2.0 to f/11, which allows you to adapt to various lighting conditions, from bright daylight to dramatic low-light scenes.

DJI’s advanced HNCS (Hasselblad Natural Color Solution) ensures that the colors in your footage are true to life, preserving the authenticity of the scene. Additionally, with its dynamic range and 10-bit color depth, the Mavic 4 Pro provides the flexibility needed for post-production.

Gimbal and Stability

One of the most exciting features of the Mavic 4 Pro is its 360° Infinity Gimbal. This fully rotating gimbal offers pilots the ability to capture unique angles and perspectives, even allowing for tilted shots up to 70° upwards. This level of flexibility in gimbal movement makes the Mavic 4 Pro an excellent tool for a wide range of applications, from cinematic storytelling to professional inspections.

Alongside this, the drone comes with an enhanced omnidirectional obstacle avoidance system, which is supported by a combination of forward-facing LiDAR and infrared sensors. The intelligent system ensures that the Mavic 4 Pro can navigate through complex environments, avoiding obstacles at speeds of up to 40 mph (18 m/s).

Video Performance

For videographers, the Mavic 4 Pro’s video capabilities are truly game-changing. It offers multiple video resolution options, including 6K at 60 fps, DCI 4K at up to 120 fps, and 4K at 120 fps for breathtaking slow-motion footage.

The drone’s video bitrate is as high as 1200 Mbps (with the 512GB Creator Combo), ensuring that the quality of your video remains pristine, even with high-frame-rate recordings.

Thanks to its versatile camera system and exceptional video bitrates, the Mavic 4 Pro is ideal for capturing everything from fast-paced action shots to delicate, cinematic movements in low-light conditions.

Plus, with the support of the DJI O4+ transmission system, video can be transmitted up to an impressive 30 km (under optimal conditions), giving filmmakers the freedom to work in a variety of environments without compromising on video quality.

Performance & Features

The long battery life is one of the best features that come with the Mavic 4 Pro. Due to its 95.3 Wh battery, it provides up to 51 minutes of flight time, which is quite okay for any professional person who might be working on a long shoot.

If you are shooting wide landforms from the air or are shooting an urban environment, Mavic 4 Pro can stay aloft for longer time spans with minimal need for battery changes.

In addition, the Mavic 4 Pro can reach a maximum flight distance of 41 km, making it perfect for scouting locations, conducting surveys, or shooting expansive scenes. Whether you’re flying in windless conditions or fighting a strong headwind, the drone’s efficient design ensures maximum stability and performance.

DJI has packed the Mavic 4 Pro with several smart flight features that make it easier to capture complex shots. The ActiveTrack 360° feature allows the drone to lock onto and follow subjects from all angles, even in challenging environments. Whether you’re tracking a moving car or capturing a subject on a bridge, the Mavic 4 Pro ensures that your subject stays in focus.

For those looking for even more creative flexibility, the Mavic 4 Pro supports Free Panoramas and other cinematic modes, which are perfect for creating sweeping aerial shots with ease.

Controller

The new DJI RC Pro 2 controller makes flying the Mavic 4 Pro even easier. The controller has a 7-inch Mini-LED screen that can be rotated for vertical shooting. It also features HDMI output for professional-level monitoring so you get all you need to fly in total comfort.

The RC Pro 2 boasts a powerful 128 GB of internal storage, 4-hour battery life, and the ability to connect to a DJI Mic for audio recording. These features make it the perfect companion for capturing not just stunning visuals but also high-quality sound, creating a more immersive experience for creators.

Pricing and Availability

The Mavic 4 Pro is available in two configurations: the standard version with 64 GB of internal storage, and the Creator Combo with 512 GB of storage for those who need ample space for high-res images and video.

Prices for the Mavic 4 Pro start at $2,849 in Canada, with the 512 GB Creator Combo priced higher. However, due to current tariff regulations, the U.S. market remains uncertain for now, and buyers in the U.S. may face significant delays or price increases due to tariffs.

Final Thoughts

DJI Mavic 4 Pro is more than a drone. It’s a device that allows creators, filmmakers and the professionals to test the limits of aerial cinematic experience.

From its incredible camera system and pioneering gimbal through to its smart features and increased flight times, the Mavic 4 Pro should be the first choice flying camera for anyone who wants to make stunning professional-quality content.

Although U.S. buyers will have to wait, the launch of the Mavic 4 Pro announces a new era of drones, as their high technology finds its way into the user-friendly form, and the skies become your canvas.
