DJI Mini 5 Pro is a palm‑sized, sub‑250 g camera drone that brings a larger 1‑inch 50 MP CMOS sensor, 4K/120 fps capture, 10‑bit D‑Log M/HLG, and a uniquely flexible 225° gimbal for true vertical video. It adds Nightscape omnidirectional obstacle sensing with a forward LiDAR module, O4+ video transmission up to 20 km (FCC), and next‑gen Smart RTH that can memorize flight paths in well‑lit scenes for safer takeoffs/returns even when GNSS is limited. With up to 36 minutes of flight on the standard Intelligent Flight Battery (or up to 52 minutes using Battery Plus), 42 GB of internal storage, and EU C0 certification in supported regions, Mini 5 Pro is built for creators who want premium imaging without the bulk.

Advantages

  • Class‑leading 1‑inch sensor in a sub‑250 g airframe for markedly better low‑light and dynamic range.
  • 4K/120 fps capture plus 10‑bit D‑Log M/HLG for flexible color grading.
  • 225° roll‑rotating gimbal enables true vertical video and dynamic creative moves without cropping.
  • Omnidirectional obstacle sensing enhanced by forward LiDAR improves safety, including in low‑light scenes.
  • O4+ transmission with up to 20 km (FCC) range for stable, low‑latency video link.
  • Long endurance options: up to 36 min standard or 52 min with Battery Plus.
  • 42 GB internal storage reduces reliance on cards for quick shoots and QuickTransfer.
  • EU C0 classification supports simplified operation in supported EU countries.

Disadvantages

  • Not officially sold through DJI’s U.S. online store at launch; U.S. MSRP was not announced.
  • ±4 g weight tolerance can push some units over 250 g, affecting registration rules in some regions.
  • Battery Plus may affect sub‑250 g classification and is restricted in some markets.
  • Highest frame‑rate/advanced modes can reduce effective flight time compared with the rated maximums.
