This month, DJI introduced two new iterations of their drones, the Inspire 3 and the Mavic 3 pro.  Personally, the first thing I need to know is how the camera compares to previous models.  Lacking actual real photos from a new drone that I have not used, I must begin by comparing camera specifications.  Digging up information can be surprisingly difficult because I&#8217;m seeking very specific fundamental parameters and sifting out the chaff is tedious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"436\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DJI-cameras-1024x436.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DJI-cameras-1024x436.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DJI-cameras-340x145.jpg 340w, https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DJI-cameras-768x327.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DJI-cameras.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Someone online recently asked which was the best for photography (which I presume excludes video).  My answer was this: &#8220;Two words &#8211; variable aperture.&#8221;  But I confess that I am particularly interested in the new 70mm lens with resolution of 48 MP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I dug through the camera specifications online and composed this simple table of just the fundamental parameters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"918\" height=\"324\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Mavic-camera-compare-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Mavic-camera-compare-1.png 918w, https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Mavic-camera-compare-1-340x120.png 340w, https:\/\/www.kevindavisphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Mavic-camera-compare-1-768x271.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 918px) 100vw, 918px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Years ago, still-photo quality was my only concern, but today video quality is also a factor. Frankly, for the purposes of the video that I shoot, video quality is comparable across most DJI drones. I personally do not need 120 fps, nor do I require 5.1K.  I do require DLOG recording.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have one surpassing criteria for an aerial drone &#8230;. image quality.
