DJI need no introduction, as their name has become synonymous with gimbals and drones.

The latest drone model Air 2S sports a 1-inch sensor for 20MP stills and 5.4K
video, which is absolutely dope, offering creators high-end performance on an
agile and portable drone. DJI kept the drone`s overall design and frame
compact and weighing below 600g.

The new quadcopter also features DJI`s MasterShots content creation tool,
improved autonomous object avoidance with new upward sensor, and 12km
range, which makes a package which will suit outdoor enthusiasts and
operators looking to capture professional-level footage of moving subjects
with a bit of help from the A.I.

The new f/2.8 camera, on a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, can capture 5.4K video
at 30fps or 4K at 60fps.

The flight time is a staggering 31 minutes, which for a drone is a luxury, as
we`re accustomed to 10 minutes or so, while maximum speed stands at 19m/s.

All four sensors at the front help the drone to avoid obstacles, like say in sparse woods, or simply stop and hover, while the return-to-home feature is still on board also on this model.

As usual for DJI, the drone is being offered in a standard and `Fly More` packs, the latter offering a total of three batteries, a charging hub, 4 ND filters and a bag.

The DJI Air 2S comes at around €999, while the Fly More Combo has a price tag for €1,299.

DJI listened to the fans, and combined camera, sensors, battery and speed in
one sweet drone, ideal for enthusiasts and creators.
