DJI MINI 2

The DJI Mini 2 continues the success story of the Mavic Mini, presenting itself as a compact drone with a good camera. In comparison, the DJI Mini 2 SE offers a budget-friendly option for users with fewer requirements. The only real difference between the two drones lies in the built-in camera. The Mini 2 SE has a video resolution of 2.7K at 30 frames per second, while the Mini 2 (without SE) offers 2.7K at 60 frames per second and, notably, 4K (up to 30 fps).

The DJI Mini 2 is compatible with DroneMask 1 & 2

Tip: With DroneMask 2, you can effortlessly capture stunning aerial shots and enjoy a completely new perspective while flying your DJI Mini 2.

Unlike traditional FPV goggles that share the screen, DroneMask 2 allows you to enjoy the full screen resolution, four times higher than conventional split-screen goggles.

The Camera of DJI Mini 2

The DJI Mini 2 features a 4K camera that enables sharp videos at 30 frames per second and still images with 12 megapixels. In comparison, the Mini 2 SE has a 2.7K camera, resulting in slightly lower resolution. The differences in detail are particularly relevant for demanding aerial photography.
