DJI Mini 5 Pro official: 1-inch sensors come to small drones, plus the longest battery life yet
"In 2023, DJI created a massive hit with the Osmo Pocket 3, a tiny steadicam with a far bigger one-inch-type sensor that dramatically improved the quality of video you could get with so tiny a gadget. Today, the company may be doing the same with its most popular portable line of drones - and with better battery life than ever."
"The DJI Mini 5 Pro is the company's first compact drone with a 50-megapixel one-inch-type sensor, up from 1/1.3-inch in the Mini 4 Pro. At 15.19 x 11.11mm, it offers more than twice the sensor area, which could mean capturing more light; DJI claims 14 stops of dynamic range. DJI tells us it could deliver even slightly better results than the one in the bigger and pricier DJI Air 3S from 2024, with "enhanced portrait performance" at close range,"
The DJI Mini 5 Pro introduces a 50-megapixel one-inch-type sensor, replacing the Mini 4 Pro's 1/1.3-inch sensor. The 15.19 x 11.11mm sensor provides more than twice the area, enabling increased light capture and a claimed 14 stops of dynamic range. Image tuning targets enhanced portrait performance at close range, improved brightness in shadow areas, and reduced oversharpening of vegetation compared with the Air 3S. Battery life rises modestly to 36 minutes from 34 minutes without exceeding the 250-gram limit, and an optional extended battery is available. The update aims to raise aerial photo and video quality in a sub-250g platform.
