Caveats

  • Internal storage differs by source: manual v1.6 says 32 GB (22.4 GB usable); current DJI spec page says 128 GB (109.6 GB usable). Likely different SKUs/combos; verify per bundleSource
  • Camera unit has no microSD slot; card only via Front Touchscreen Module or Power Module; modules are not waterproof without caseSource
  • Operating temperature 0-40°C only (no sub-zero rating)Source
  • No PD/QC fast charging; DJI recommends a 5V/2A charger (90 min full charge with module)Source
  • Guaranteed software updates until 2026-12-31Source

Thermals

  • FW v01.03.30.20 (2022-03-16) added detection of the magnetic protective case, which 'greatly reduces situations of recording being stopped due to high temperature threshold'; manual offers Auto-Stop Rec Temp Standard/High (High not allowed in some regions)Source

Firmware notes

  • 2021-10-27: FW v01.01.04.10: added 4K 100/120 and 1080p 200/240, 4K 4x / 1080p 8x Slow-Mo, Loop Recording, SnapShot, webcam on MacSource
  • 2022-01-20: FW v01.02.10.10: HorizonBalancing (4K level within 45°), Steady mode, DJI Mic transmitter start/stop (receiver on module)Source
  • 2022-03-16: FW v01.03.30.20: magnetic protective case detection to reduce overheat stopsSource
  • 2023-03-30: FW v01.04.06.20: gyro data embedded (EIS off, Wide, 4K 4:3 24-60 or 4K 16:9 100/120) for Gyroflow v1.4.2+Source
