DJI, the renowned drone brand, has sparked speculation with its announcement of the upcoming Double Up event scheduled for July 25th at 9 AM EST. The company, known for its cryptic marketing strategies, has released a brief teaser trailer that offers minimal details. The trailer features a man atop a mountain holding a drone controller, with the camera panning back to reveal two perspectives stacked on top of each other. Based on this clue and recent leaks, it is believed that DJI will be unveiling the new Air 3 drone, targeting the mid-range market.
In late June, German tech news site WinFuture published potential marketing images of the Air 3. The images showcased a dual-lens camera mounted on a gimbal, with the lenses stacked on top of each other. This aligns with the viewpoints shown in DJI’s teaser trailer. Combining these pieces of information, it is speculated that the Air 3 will feature a double-lens camera, offering a direct upgrade to the Air 2S drone. This is exciting news, as the Air 2S’s camera capabilities, including stunning photo and video quality up to 5.4K resolution at 30 FPS, were highly praised.
Potential camera system
The leaked information from WinFuture does not provide specific details about the camera on the Air 3. However, it mentions the possibility of a 4,242mAh battery, which is 30% larger than the Air 2S’s battery. The leak also draws similarities between the Air 3 and the DJI Mavic 3. The base Mavic 3 drone features a dual-camera system, consisting of a 20MP main lens with a “Four Third CMOS sensor with adjustable aperture,” as well as a telephoto lens with 24x zoom. It remains uncertain if the Air 3 will have the same or similar camera capabilities.
Conflicting prices
In late June, Quadro_News, a reliable industry insider, tweeted leaked “approximate prices” for the DJI Air 3’s accessory bundles. According to the leak, the bundles will range from around $1,234 to $1,295. However, this conflicts with the price range mentioned in the WinFuture leak, which suggests prices between $1,563 to $1,796. While the final pricing is uncertain, the higher price range indicates the potential inclusion of a “pro-level camera” in the Air 3. It is worth noting that the Air series is DJI’s mid-range line, so the launch price may not exceed $1,000 and could potentially decrease after release. Additionally, the dual-lens camera on the Air 3 may not match the power of the Mavic 3’s lenses, so it is advisable to approach these details with caution.
On July 25th, all speculations will be put to rest as DJI unveils the Air 3. It is hoped that DJI has taken note of customer expectations and incorporated desired features into their latest drone.
