DJI Mavic 3 Pro is a flagship folding camera drone built around a professional tri-camera array: a 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad wide camera paired with two dedicated telephoto modules (70 mm medium tele with 1/1.3″ sensor and 166 mm tele with 1/2″ sensor). It captures up to 5.1K/50fps and DCI 4K/120fps, offers 10‑bit D‑Log M and HLG color, and the Cine version adds Apple ProRes across all three cameras plus a built‑in 1 TB SSD and 10 Gbps high‑speed data cable. With up to 43 minutes of flight time, omnidirectional obstacle sensing with APAS 5.0, O3+ transmission up to 15 km with a 1080p/60fps live feed, and creator‑focused modes like FocusTrack, MasterShots, Waypoint Flight, Cruise Control, and Advanced RTH, Mavic 3 Pro is optimized for cinematic aerial production while remaining highly portable.

Selling Points
Three native optical focal lengths (24/70/166 mm) deliver versatile perspectives without changing aircraft or sacrificing image quality. ( dji.com)
High‑end imaging on the Hasselblad camera: up to 5.1K/50 and DCI 4K/120 with 10‑bit D‑Log M/HLG for robust grading latitude. ( dji.com)
Cine variant supports Apple ProRes on all three cameras and integrates a 1 TB SSD for professional workflows. ( dji.com)
Long endurance (up to 43 min), omnidirectional obstacle sensing with APAS 5.0, and Advanced RTH enhance safety and productivity on set. ( dji.com)
O3+ transmission provides up to 15 km FCC range with a low‑latency 1080p/60 live feed; supports Wi‑Fi 6 QuickTransfer. ( dji.com)
Intelligent tools (FocusTrack, MasterShots, Waypoint Flight, Cruise Control) streamline complex shots for solo operators. ( dji.com)
Optional compatibility with DJI Goggles and RC Motion 2 enables immersive FPV-style monitoring and flight. ( store.dji.com)
Drawbacks
Not sub‑250 g: at 958 g takeoff weight, it requires FAA registration in the United States; Remote ID compliance also applies. ( dji.com)
Tele cameras use smaller sensors and top out at 4K/60, so low‑light performance and maximum frame rates are lower than the Hasselblad wide camera. ( dji.com)
The 166 mm tele camera does not support ActiveTrack 5.0 (FocusTrack); it supports Spotlight and POI only. ( dji.com)
Premium pricing at launch relative to midsized consumer drones. ( dji.com)
15 km transmission spec is a signal strength metric; drone must still be flown within visual line of sight per local laws and guidance. ( dji.com)
