When we decided to invest in the DJI Inspire 3 drone, it wasn’t a decision we made lightly. As a company already equipped with a fleet of reliable drones, we were initially hesitant to take on the significant investment required—especially in a time of economic uncertainty, rapid advancements in AI, and the growing competition in the drone market.

 

Why Did We Choose the DJI Inspire 3?

Unmatched Technical Excellence and Image Quality

The DJI Inspire 3 drone offers technical capabilities unparalleled in the industry. It supports high-end codecs like CINEMA DNG, ProRes RAW, and ProRes HQ and captures footage in stunning 8.1K resolution. For a team dedicated to delivering the highest-quality aerial cinematography, these features were essential. The Inspire 3 allows us to meet and exceed the exacting standards our clients expect, ensuring that every shot is perfect, from detail to dynamic range.
