DJI has announced a new lens for Inspire 3, expanding their catalog for the system. With a weight of 269 grams (9.5 oz), the DJI 75mm f/1.8 Telephoto Lens (DL) is a full-frame lens that features the maximum aperture and longest focal length in a DJI lens and is compatible with Zenmuse X9-8K cameras. Let’s take a closer look!

DJI continues to expand their ecosystem by completing their product lineup with a range of accessories and lenses. On this occasion, the company launches a medium telephoto lens with an aperture of f/1.8, perfect for aerial low-light shootings and scenarios. The new DJI 75mm f/1.8 has a DL mount and is made for the Inspire 3 cinema drone’s Zenmuse X9-Air gimbal camera, completing the range where the ultra-wide, wide, and standard focal lengths were already covered in the lineup.

A first look at the lens

The DJI 75mm f/1.8 telephoto lens has an aperture of f/1.8-f/22 and a 55mm filter thread. It has ten elements in nine groups, three extra-low dispersion lenses, and a UMC coating to achieve high contrast and clear images. The company ensures the images produced have high sharpness and minimal chromatic aberration. It also features pan and tilt axis counterweights for a straightforward balance when using a gimbal camera. The package also comes with a balancing ring and a lens protector.

With the new DJI DL 75mm lens, we continue to bring innovation to the filmmaking industry by pushing aerial and handheld cinematography to new heights. As a leader in civil drone and creative camera technology, we aim to provide creators with the professional tools they need to unlock their creative potential and bring their visions to life.
