DJI Mini 4 Pro D-LOG M Footage Compared to Mini 3 Pro and Air 3

In a recent video analysis by the Pilot Institute, aerial footage from the DJI Mini 4 Pro in D-LOG M is juxtaposed against sequences from both the DJI Mini 3 Pro and the DJI Air 3 drones.

Early in the video, the drone visuals are color-graded using the Rec.709 color space, providing a standardized comparison across all three drones.

The distinction in the footage between the DJI Mini 4 Pro and the DJI Mini 3 Pro is strikingly evident. Despite the drones and cameras bearing remarkable similarities, the augmented processing prowess of the DJI Mini 4 Pro delivers footage with heightened contrast, enriched resolution, and vivid coloration.

The visual output from the DJI Mini 4 Pro is strikingly parallel to that of the newly launched DJI Air 3. Upon meticulous examination of both sets of footage, the distinction is razor-thin.

With the unveiling of the DJI Mini 4 Pro, DJI appears to have truly integrated professional-grade features into a sub-250g drone. DJI’s recent slogan, hinting at maximizing the potential of the mini-series, seems to have been not just a marketing phrase but a statement of intent. Based on preliminary reviews and feedback, it’s evident that the Chinese drone giant has delivered on its promise.
