Hi everyone, this is Captain Tom. Recently, I stumbled upon a DJI Mini 4 Pro with dual batteries priced at just $3200 on a local second-hand platform. The moment I saw it, I was hooked—and within an hour of spotting the listing, it was already in my hands.
Over the past few days, I’ve been out exploring and snapping some sample shots with the Mini 4 Pro. Having previously flown the DJI Mavic 3, Air 3, and Air 2S, one word kept coming to mind: “heavy.” But stepping into the Mini series for the first time? Wow. Holding the Mini 4 Pro felt like clutching just the battery of an Air 2S—it’s that lightweight.
Its portability is unmatched; it easily fits in my pocket, ready to take flight anytime, anywhere. And compared to its predecessor, the Mini 3, it now boasts professional-grade omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, significantly reducing the risk of crashes.
Now, let’s dive into the camera. Equipped with a large f/1.7 aperture, it excels in low-light conditions, delivering crisp and vibrant photos even when the sun goes down. It can capture stunning 4K footage at up to 100fps—a feature that’s absolutely game-changing for sports and action shots. When paired with DJI’s follow mode, you’ll be capturing dynamic, smooth videos like never before.
Plus, the gimbal has been upgraded to allow portrait orientation, making it ideal for creating content tailored to today’s short-video platforms.
Another highlight? The inclusion of the DLOG-M curve. While not as robust as full LOG, it still adds a layer of creative flexibility—better than nothing, right?
In summary, the Mini 4 Pro is a powerhouse of compact design and impressive performance, offering image quality that more than meets expectations. Lately, I’ve been bringing it along everywhere I go, and it’s truly transformed how I experience and document my surroundings visually. If you’re looking for a reliable companion for your adventures, this little marvel might just be the perfect fit.
