Drone Overview — DJI Phantom 4 Advanced
Key Features — DJI Phantom 4 Advanced
20MP 1-Inch Sensor: Larger than typical drone sensors, the 1-inch CMOS captures 20MP stills at up to 5472 x 3648 pixels with improved dynamic range and low-light performance.
4K Video at Multiple Frame Rates: Records 4K footage at up to 30fps, with high frame rate options at lower resolutions for slow-motion capture.
3-Axis Gimbal Stabilization: Mechanical gimbal stabilization keeps footage smooth during flight without relying on digital processing that can reduce image quality.
D-Log Color Profile: Available for both stills and video, D-Log captures a flat, wide dynamic range image suited for color grading in post-production.
ISO 100–12800 Range: Broad ISO range gives shooters flexibility when filming or photographing in varied lighting conditions, from bright sunlight to lower-light environments.
~30-Minute Flight Time: The LiPo 4S 5870 mAh battery supports approximately 30 minutes of flight per charge, allowing extended shooting sessions before landing.

Description — DJI Phantom 4 Advanced
The DJI Phantom 4 Advanced centers on a 1-inch, 20 MP sensor delivering stills at 5472 x 3648 pixels and video up to 4K resolution. ISO sensitivity spans 100 to 12800, and burst shooting is available at up to 14 frames. Color profile options for stills include D-Log, sRGB, and Adobe RGB, while video supports D-Log, Cine-D, and sRGB — all captured in 8-bit.
Video frame rates cover 24fps, 25fps, 30fps, 48fps, 50fps, 60fps, and 120fps, with a 60fps maximum at 4K. Image stabilization is handled entirely by gimbal stabilization — no in-body or digital IS is used. Subject tracking is supported via a contrast detection autofocus system.
Footage and images are stored on microSD, microSDHC, or microSDXC cards, with USB connectivity and HDMI output on the remote controller. The Advanced+ variant adds a 5.5-inch, 1920 x 1080 integrated display. The airframe is built from titanium and magnesium alloy, measures 350mm diagonally (excluding propellers), and weighs 1.375 kg.
The LiPo 4S 5870 mAh battery provides approximately 30 minutes of flight time.
