DJI has announced the Air 3S, an update to its existing dual-camera Air 3 mode. The Air 3S gains a larger Type 1 sensor on its main camera along with features that promise to make the drone easier to operate at night.

The Air 3S is the latest flagship model in DJI ’s mid-range Air series of consumer camera drones, supplanting the July 2023-launched DJI Air 3. Like the Air 3, the Air 3S’s main draw is its two-camera setup: instead of a single camera for aerial photos and video,

The new drone features a 1-inch-CMOS primary camera and a 70mm medium tele camera, each with up to 14 stops of dynamic range that support the new Free panorama feature.

The key upgrades delivered by the Air 3S are its dual-camera array, which now includes a primary 24mm camera that utilizes a larger 1-inch sensor, alongside the secondary camera – a 3x telephoto zoom (70mm approx) for the times you need to get a tighter perspective of your subjects.

The Air 3S upgrades its main camera with a big Type 1 sensor and flies for up to 45 minutes between charges. It's been a little more than a year since DJI launched its dual camera Air 3 drone, but it's already back with a follow-up: the Air 3S.

The Air 3S is DJI’s new mid-range drone that builds upon the Air 3 in a few notable ways. These include better image quality, especially in low light, with nighttime obstacle avoidance to help ensure the drone returns home safely.
