DJI Zenmuse X7 – The King of Aerial Cinematography

If you’ve ever looked at your drone footage and thought, “Hmm… this needs more cinema and less smartphone,” then the DJI Zenmuse X7 is your answer. This powerful aerial camera is designed for professional filmmakers, cinematographers, and production crews who want true Hollywood-quality footage from the sky.

The X7 brings a Super 35mm sensor, 6K CinemaDNG and 5.2K Apple ProRes video, and support for interchangeable lenses—all in a lightweight, gimbal-stabilized design that mounts perfectly on the DJI Inspire 2. Whether you’re shooting a short film, a Netflix series, or a luxury real estate ad, the Zenmuse X7 turns every aerial shot into cinematic gold.

Key Features of DJI Zenmuse X7

1. Super 35mm Sensor – Big Sensor, Big Detail

The Zenmuse X7 features a Super 35mm sensor with 24 megapixels, which is significantly larger than standard drone camera sensors. This means better low-light performance, smoother gradients, and more dynamic range. Whether you’re flying during golden hour or in tricky lighting conditions, your footage stays crisp, colorful, and cinematic.

2. 6K CinemaDNG & 5.2K ProRes – For Serious Filmmakers

If you’re serious about video, this is what you’ve been waiting for. The Zenmuse X7 captures 6K RAW video in CinemaDNG format and 5.2K Apple ProRes, which are the same formats used in major film studios. This gives you unmatched flexibility in post-production, especially for color grading, editing, and adding visual effects.

3. Supports Interchangeable DL Lenses – Total Creative Freedom

The X7 supports DJI’s DL mount lens system, with four professional prime lenses (16mm, 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm). Each lens is lightweight and specifically optimized for aerial use. Whether you need a wide, cinematic landscape or a dramatic close-up, you’ve got the tools to capture it perfectly from above.

4. 14 Stops of Dynamic Range – Details in Every Shadow and Highlight

With 14 stops of dynamic range, the X7 retains details even in the brightest skies and darkest shadows. This allows your footage to breathe and gives editors full control during color correction. It’s a dream for any filmmaker who cares about visual storytelling.

5. Integrated with DJI Inspire 2 – A Match Made in Airborne Heaven

The Zenmuse X7 is made specifically for the DJI Inspire 2, and when combined, they create one of the most powerful aerial filmmaking platforms in the world. Features like dual-operator mode, SSD recording, and high-speed flight with gimbal stability make your production workflow smooth, fast, and flexible.

6. 20fps Burst Shooting – Still Photos That Snap Like Cinema Frames

Besides amazing video, the X7 also captures stills at 20fps in 24MP RAW, perfect for high-resolution photography and photogrammetry. Whether you’re grabbing aerial photos for a commercial or digital content creation, you’ll never miss a perfect frame.

7. Lightweight Yet Powerful – Built for the Sky

Despite its heavy-duty performance, the X7 is surprisingly lightweight. This means longer flight time and better maneuverability when mounted on the Inspire 2. You get power without bulk—ideal for fast-paced shoots and complex angles.

8. Professional Workflow Support – Straight from Drone to Edit Bay

Because it records in RAW and ProRes, the X7’s footage fits directly into industry-standard editing platforms like DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro. No conversions, no fuss—just high-end footage that’s ready to be cut, graded, and published.
