DJI Air 3S Released With Dual Camera Designed for Travel Photography
DJI recently launched the DJI Air 3S consumer drone that integrates a suite of advanced technologies. However, the revealed information shows that it has a better image and performance quality than the flagship Mavic 3 Pro.
Moreover, DJI Air 3S features a dual camera designed for travel photography. The big change is the 1-inch CMOS primary camera and 70mm medium tele camera which both have around 14 stops of dynamic range.
The wide camera angle has 50MP effective pixels and f/1.8 Aperture with a 0.5m close focus point. Along with this, a medium tele camera has 48MP and offers f/2.8 Aperture and a 3m close focus point. The video is recorded in 10-bit at 60fps and 4K 120FPS, a good quality.
