DJI Air 3S features a dual-camera system consisting of a 1-inch-CMOS primary camera and a 1/1.3-inch-CMOS medium tele camera. The primary camera features a larger CMOS sensor and a 24mm lens, making it ideal for capturing expansive landscapes with enhanced clarity and a wide field of view. The 70mm medium tele camera excels at portrait and vehicle shots, offering compressed depth of field to highlight any subject with a bolder, more cinematic look.

The primary camera of DJI Air 3S integrates a 50MP 1-inch CMOS sensor, supporting 4K/60fps HDR and 4K/120fps video recording [6] as well as 10-bit D-Log M colour mode. This large sensor, enhanced by advanced image-processing technology and intelligent algorithms, preserves even minute details in low-light conditions such as sunsets and nightscapes, delivering shots that are simply, effortlessly breath-taking.

The latest HDR video mode offers up to 14 stops of dynamic range, [1] capturing cinematic footage in high-contrast scenes, such as detailed views of cloud textures and other elements during sunrise and sunset. Enhanced resolution and frame rates add a vibrant perspective of cultural or sporting events, and open up exciting creative possibilities during post-processing. Even in normal colour mode, Air 3S can record 10-bit video using H.265 encoding, delivering refined colour performance and greater flexibility in post, with the maximum ISO raised to 12,800. In D-Log M and HLG colour modes, the maximum ISO is raised to 3,200, allowing for greater brightness and more details in urban night scenes.

The medium tele camera, with its 48MP 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor, supports the same video specs and colour modes as the primary camera. This ensures visually consistent footage for streamlined post-processing. Its 70mm lens offers 3x optical zoom, allowing you to capture unique shots from a distance while highlighting your subject. And when you use Air 3S to orbit around a subject and record a 4K video, you can easily take detailed and expressive close-up portraits. When capturing close-up shots of sunset scenes, the medium tele camera offers up to 14 stops of dynamic range [1] to vividly capture the rich, vibrant colours of the setting sun. When filming slow-motion videos at 4K/120fps, the medium tele camera can record high-resolution videos that are slowed down to showcase your skills and even the most subtle movements. Air 3S's medium tele camera also supports recording 10-bit video in normal colour mode using H.265 encoding, offering refined colour performance and greater flexibility in post. With 10-bit D-Log M mode enabled, the camera captures richer colour details and beautifully renders the vibrant lights of the city as evening falls.

Free Panorama - Both the primary camera and medium tele camera of DJI Air 3S offer Free panorama mode, letting you create seamless panoramic shots by stitching together multiple images with a manually selected subject or area. The wide-angle camera offers a broader FOV, boosting efficiency when capturing panorama photos. The medium tele camera significantly reduces image distortion, crafting your masterpieces into expansive shots with a wide perspective from multiple photos and rich details captured through its focal length advantages.

Compared with the previous-generation DJI Air 3, DJI Air 3S employs a more advanced video encoding compression algorithm that reduces video file sizes by over 30% without compromising image quality, saving valuable storage space for creators. DJI Air 3S also supports user-favourite features like 2.7K vertical shooting, MasterShots, QuickShots, Hyperlapse, and more, putting a massive creative toolkit together in one compact drone.

Omnidirectional Vision Sensing System DJI Air 3S supports the Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems (APAS). Additionally, as the first DJI drone to feature forward-facing LiDAR, Air 3S also features a downward infrared time-of-flight (ToF) sensor and six vision sensors (two at the front, rear, and bottom) to achieve nightscape omnidirectional obstacle sensing. [2] This feature enables the drone to automatically identify and circumvent obstacles, such as buildings, during its flight and return paths, ensuring robust safety for night-time photography.

Powered by real-time vision positioning and map construction technologies, DJI Air 3S memorizes flight paths when adequate lighting is available. This ensures a safe return even when taking off from locations without satellite signals, such as balconies. With forward-facing LiDAR, DJI Air 3S can detect obstacles such as high-rise buildings and navigate upwards around them, [7] even in low-light conditions, ensuring safer returns at night.

Enhanced Vision Assist DJI Air 3S's Vision Assist provides a downward view in addition to the front, back, left, and right views to help you better understand your surroundings.

DJI Air 3S also provides Waypoint Flight and Cruise Control, among other advanced features, which allow you to pre-set flight paths and camera actions and quickly lock control stick inputs to unleash creativity.

Stay Focused DJI Air 3S introduces a new Subject Focusing feature that keeps your subject in sharp focus, even during manual flight or when the subject moves off-centre. This feature allows you to fully concentrate on the more creative aspects of your shots like composition and camera movement.

Extended Flight & Transmission Distance - Serious Air Time: 45-Min Max With up to 45 minutes of flight time, Air 3S gives you enough time to scout locations, compose, nail your shots, and do it all over again and again. 10-bit O4 Video Transmission Powered by DJI O4 FHD video transmission technology, Air 3S delivers 10-bit video transmission at 1080p/60fps over distances of up to 20 kilometres. [4] Live feeds are reliably smooth and vivid, with ultra-responsive control for an improved overall flight experience.
