The DJI Mini 3 is a sub-250 g folding camera drone that shoots 4K HDR video and 12 MP stills on a 1/1.3-inch sensor with a bright f/1.7 lens. It rotates the gimbal for True Vertical Shooting, so clips drop straight into vertical social feeds. The RC-N1 controller holds your phone and has no built-in screen. Against the Mini 3 Pro it drops obstacle avoidance and forward/backward sensors, and against the Mini 4K it adds the larger sensor, HDR and vertical shooting. Owners like the light weight, steady footage and long flight time; the usual complaints are wind sensitivity, no obstacle sensors and the phone-based controller.
