DJI DL-Mount System

With FSI-Cu technology, the X7’s sensor boasts thinner interconnections, increasing photosensitivity. This allows for a more compact lens mount while maintaining superior image quality. The DL-Mount’s flange focal distance is under 17 mm, making the X7 lightweight yet powerful, weighing only about 630 g with a lens.

• 58 mm Diameter
• 16.84 mm Flange Focal Distance
• 449 g Weight

DL Lenses

DJI offers four prime lenses for the DL-Mount system, ranging from 16-50 mm focal lengths, crafted from lightweight carbon fiber, and optimized for the X7’s sensor.

Apple ProRes RAW

The Zenmuse X7 supports Apple ProRes RAW, recording 6K 14-bit video at 23.976 fps when used with the Inspire 2.

More Creative Flexibility

With the CineCore 2.1 image processing system on the Inspire 2, the X7 records 6K/30fps CinemaDNG and 5.2K/30fps Apple ProRes, providing filmmakers with extensive post-production options. The new EI Mode and improved image processing reduce artifacts and enhance image details.

A Game Changer from Shoot to Finish
