DJI unveils Mavic 4 Pro with 100MP camera and 360° rotating gimbal

DJI’s new Mavic 4 Pro features a 100MP Hasselblad sensor, 360° rotating gimbal, and extended flight time for cinematic aerial storytelling.

DJI has officially introduced the Mavic 4 Pro, a next-generation drone equipped with a new 100MP Hasselblad main sensor, dual telephoto cameras, and a unique Infinity Gimbal that allows full 360° rotation. Designed for aerial content creators, the Mavic 4 Pro promises improved flight time, smarter obstacle sensing, and industry-leading video quality.

Triple camera system with 100MP Hasselblad sensor

At the heart of the Mavic 4 Pro is a powerful triple camera setup with focal lengths of 28mm, 70mm, and 168mm. The main camera features a new 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad sensor capable of capturing 100MP stills. It also supports the Hasselblad Natural Colour Solution (HNCS) to deliver accurate and vibrant colours straight out of the camera. The variable f/2.0 to f/11 aperture supports creative effects such as starbursts and handles low-light conditions with ease.

The medium telephoto camera uses a 48MP 1/1.3-inch sensor with an f/2.8 aperture, enhanced by a new image processing engine. It enables tighter framing for cinematic portraits and dynamic shots. The 168mm telephoto lens uses a 50MP 1/1.5-inch sensor and a dedicated gimbal algorithm for long-range photography. This setup allows users to create dramatic perspectives, sharp close-ups, and detailed panoramic views.

All three cameras include Dual Native ISO Fusion and RAW stacking capabilities. Features like Free Panoramas and Subject Focusing enhance image quality and consistency across different lighting conditions and environments.

Enhanced video performance and 360° aerial freedom

The Mavic 4 Pro supports up to 6K/60fps HDR video through its main camera, with dynamic ranges reaching up to 16 stops. The medium and tele cameras deliver video with 14 and 13 stops of dynamic range respectively. To support a wide range of shooting needs, the drone records in 4K/60fps HDR across all cameras and supports high frame rates—up to 120fps—for slow-motion footage.

Each camera supports 10-bit D-Log, D-Log M, and HLG colour profiles to maintain consistent colour grading throughout a project. The highlight of the device is its new Infinity Gimbal, allowing full 360° rotation and 70° upward tilt. This opens up creative angles such as dramatic Dutch tilts or gravity-defying flight paths.

The drone is built for low-light operation, with six fisheye sensors capable of functioning in conditions as dim as 0.1 lux. Real-time vision positioning and map construction ensure accurate tracking and return-to-home even without GPS. Its ActiveTrack 360° feature maintains focus on subjects—even when partially obscured or elevated—making it ideal for complex tracking sequences.

Longer flights, smarter control, and fast data transfer

The Mavic 4 Pro can fly for up to 51 minutes and reach speeds of up to 90kph, with a range of 41km. The DJI O4+ transmission system enables long-range 10-bit HDR video feeds up to 30km, maintaining stability even in interference-heavy urban settings.

DJI also introduced the new RC Pro 2 remote controller. It features a 7-inch Mini-LED display, rotatable screen for vertical shooting, HDMI port, 128GB internal storage, and a built-in microphone. The high-gain antenna system and 4-hour battery life make it a fitting companion for professional use.

The drone supports quick and efficient charging with the DJI 240W Power Adapter and Parallel Charging Hub, which prioritises lower-charged batteries first before switching to full parallel charging. It can also convert into a 100W power bank to charge other devices on location.
