Weighing less than 249 grams, the Mini 3 is easy to take in your bag or pocket for your next adventure. It also satisfies drone regulations in many parts of the world, where sub-250g drones allow users to fly within regional compliance, no registration or exam required. Equipped with a 9.6 x 7.2 mm CMOS sensor and 24mm equivalent lens with a f/1.7 maximum aperture, it is able to record 4K/30fps with lower image noise in low lighting and high contrast situations. The Mini 3 can create photos from 48 megapixels to 12 megapixels in size and individual pixels as large as 2.4 μm using 4-in-1 pixel technology to improve low-light performance. Dual native ISO and chip-level HDR technology deliver better results in high dynamic range situations with large shadows.

The DJI Mini 3 comes with the standard Intelligent Flight Battery to provide a maximum flight time of up to 38 minutes. This can be extended by up to 51 minutes with the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus. DJI O2 digital video transmission delivers a 720p/30fps live feed from up to 10 km away while using powerful anti-interference technology to deliver a reliable connection throughout the flight. With a wind resistance at up to 10.7 m/s, the Mini 3 can hover steady and keep a stable image in various conditions.
