DJI launched its new all-in-one vlog camera drone, DJI Flip, on Tuesday, sporting capabilities such as automatic subject tracking powered by artificial intelligence (AI), one-tap aerial photography, 4K video recording at fps, and remote-less operation via the DJI Fly smartphone app.
DJI Flip users can take benefit of an assortment of storytelling tools which aid in video recording purposes.
DJI Flip specifications
The DJI Flip sports a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor with Dual Native ISO Fusion, f/1.7 aperture, and 2.4 micron 4-in-1 pixels.
It can capture 48MP still photos and those with up to 4x zoom. The drone's SmartPhoto feature combines HDR imaging, scene recognition, and more to create vibrant images. Moreover, it is capable of recording videos in 4K resolution at 60fps along with slow-motion recording at 4K 100fps and 10-bit D-Log M colour mode.
DJI said that the 4:3 CMOS sensor enables the drone to maintain a 2.7K resolution even with vertical crops, making it optimal for smartphone and social media viewing.
The DJI Flip has six different shooting modes: Dronie, Circle, Rocket, Spotlight, Helix, and Boomerang.
The drone's MasterShots feature can automatically execute diverse camera movements, shoot multiple clips and edit them with music, cuts, and effects to output cinematic footage.
However, users can select from Free, Circle, Course Lock, and Waypoint hyper-lapse options to capture time-lapse footage at up to 4K horizontally or 2.7K vertically.
Using DJI Flip, users can shoot 180-degree, wide-angle, vertical, and sphere panoramic photos.
The DJI Flip is featured with a 3D Infrared Sensing System which supports automatic braking. It can offer up to 31 minutes of flight time on a single charge.
Notably, this drone can be operated without a remote control. The company said that it can also be paired with the DJI Fly app, DJI RC-N3, and RC 2 remote controllers.
