The latest DJI Mavic 4 Pro isn’t just a new toy—it’s essentially the Swiss Army knife of drones. With a clever triple camera setup boasting a Hasselblad sensor, it captures 100-megapixel stills and 6K video at a sprightly 60 frames per second. The new Infinity Gimbal allows for 360-degree rotations, meaning you’ll have no excuse for lacklustre angles. Plus, its low-light performance will make you feel like a wizard in those dimly lit conditions.
Speaking of enhancements, the new All-I codec provides better colour grading options while keeping file sizes manageable. Just remember that you’ll need the built-in storage of the Creator Combo version to take full advantage of this nifty feature. And it seems DJI has also made a conscious effort to keep the noise down—good luck trying to sneak up on any unsuspecting pigeons now.
For those who fancy a bit of automation, the Quickshot mode is a delightful touch, letting you set predefined movements for effortlessly cinematic shots. And let’s not forget the RC Pro 2 remote, which features a dazzling 7-inch display, perfect for bright British days when sun glare could turn your footage into an abstract art piece.
In short, whether you’re a weekend warrior or a professional photographer, the Mavic 4 Pro’s array of features—from enhanced tracking capabilities with ActiveTrack 360 to a hefty flight time of 51 minutes—could very well justify your investment. Just be prepared for your bank balance to be a bit lighter afterwards.
