Features and features

Camera rendering

With a 1" CMOS sensor and large 2.4mm pixels, the DJI Air 2S is capable of 5.4K/30fps and 4K/60fps video. This allows users to capture more visual information in each shot, ensuring richer, more dynamic, high-quality results Let's look at some of the reasons why the DJI Air 2S delivers outstanding camera performance.

Sensor 1"

A 1" sensor offers countless benefits, especially in a drone as compact and light as the DJI Air 2S. This combination means you can get professional-level results more conveniently in more places.

Essentially, a larger sensor means larger pixels, and each pixel can collect more visual information. This means users can enjoy higher dynamic range, better resolutions, more accurate color and excellent detail in both the highlights and shadows of any scene. This also ensures more flexibility when editing the video. Even when brightening a dark shot, retrieving details in shadows and highlights, pushing colors or even cropping, the Air 2S lets you do all that and more.

5.4K/30fps

DJI Air 2S allows users to capture stunning footage in 5.4K/30fps and 4K/60fps. These resolutions ensure that the video results are as epic and dynamic as the shooting location, and maintain excellent quality and detail, even when viewed on larger screens.

Timelapse, D-Log, RAW format and smart HDR

There are many reasons why the Air 2S is ideal for creators. Thanks to the 1" CMOS sensor, timelapse videos are easy to capture and more detailed and dynamic than ever before. A 10-bit Dlog-M color profile can capture up to a billion colors while retaining all the nuance that makes video RAW format photos with a dynamic range of up to 12.6 stops capture more visual information, giving creators more flexibility when editing. And Smart HDR technology automatically merges multiple shots, increasing the dynamic range of images.

Smart features

With the DJI Air 2S, DJI continues to push the boundaries of intelligent and autonomous drone functionality.

MasterShots

The next evolution of QuickShots, MasterShots allows users to take the best photos in any location with one tap. With this handy feature, the Air 2S automatically captures footage across multiple flight paths and creates a cinematic edit. This gives even pilots rich creative solutions to create amazing content.

FocusTrack

Selecting and tracking a subject is easier than ever with DJI Air 2S thanks to FocusTrack. This tracking technologies feature has many advanced options for automatic shooting with your subject in the center frame.

Security features

The DJI Air 2S isn't just powerful, it's also equipped with the advanced safety features and technologies users have come to expect from DJI.

O3 Broadcast

DJI Air 2S features DJI's most advanced O3 (OcuSync 3.0) image transmission technology, which provides an ultra-smooth, clear and reliable image transmission every time you fly. This 1080p transmission at distances of up to 8 km allows users to not only see more, but also fly more in a safe and reliable way.

Obstacle detection

DJI Air 2S features obstacle detection in four directions: up, down, forward and backward. Four pairs of sensors ensure that this function is stable and reliable, even during high-speed flight. Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems (APAS 4.0)^[2] has been significantly upgraded for the DJI Air 2S, allowing the aircraft to autonomously avoid obstacles, even in very complex scenarios and at high speeds.

DJI Care Refresh
