Zenmuse P1

What's the shortest continuous shooting interval of the camera? 

0.7 seconds. 

What is the mechanical shutter speed range of the P1? 

The shutter speed goes from 1 s down to as fast as 1/2000s. 

What is the single pixel size of the P1? 

4.4 μm.

What lenses does the P1 Support? 

The P1 supports 24mm, 35mm and 50mm lenses with DL mounts.

Operation + Software

What drones support the P1 and which gimbal port can be installed on? 

Suport M300 RTK, and currently can be installed only on the single downward gimbal of M300 RTK.

Which position is recorded by the photos taken by the P1? 

In photos taken by the P1, the exit pupil position at the center of the camera lens is recorded.

What is the low noise high sensitivity mode of the P1? 

The Low-noise and high-sensitivity mode of the P1 can improve camera sensitivity (ISO) while reducing noise levels, which expands the range of operatable scenarios for P1.

What features of the M300 RTK when used with the TimeSync 2.0 of Zenmuse P1 aerial surveying solution? 

Output the exposure time interval in microseconds;
Time synchronization for the camera, the gimbal, the flight control system, and RTK;
Brand-new position and orientation compensation function which writes precise exit pupil positions of the camera into the photos based on the positions and orientations of the drone and the gimbal.

Functions

What is Smart Oblique Capture? 

The feature allows photos to be taken at multiple angles during a flight by way of payload control. All the ortho- and oblique photos necessary for 3D reconstruction can be acquired through one flight path. Only photos essential to reconstruction will be taken at the edge of the flight area, minimizing the number of images taken and significantly increasing the efficiency of post-processing. As each flight area corresponds to a different flight path section, which requires a distinct oblique capture strategy, all the photos taken for each flight path section will be based on the target data collection zones demarcated by the user’s measurement area. During a Smart Oblique Capture operation, the aircraft will fly in the mode with the highest operational efficiency. The flying speed will also be adjusted according to the different oblique capture sequence for each flight path section, to maximize the efficiency of the operation. Currently, the function is only supported by Zenmuse P1 as mounted on the M300 RTK. To use the function, enable it in aerial photography settings for flight path navigation on the DJI Pilot app.

What's the Tilt angle of the camera during the Smart Oblique capture of the P1? 

The tilt angle range is from -45° to -90°.

Does the M300 RTK support PPK post-processing when used with the P1?

Yes. The task folder stores photos, original GNSS observations, and TimeStamps.MRK files, which are used for PPK post-processing calculations.

What operating modes does the P1 support when used with the M300 RTK? 

The P1 supports the following operating modes: aerial photography (including Smart Oblique Capture), oblique photography, corridor mapping flight, waypoint flight, and manual operation.

Which operating modes support the terrain-following flight path function?

The terrain-following flight path function is supported by the aerial photography mode, but not the oblique photography, corridor mapping flight, or Smart Oblique Capture modes.
