The Phase One P3 UAV Camera is a medium-format UAV camera system engineered for demanding inspection and mapping projects where time, safety, and image detail are critical. Designed for seamless integration with the DJI M400 drone, the P3 payload features a sensor 1.7 times larger than standard UAV cameras, delivering best-in-class dynamic range and image resolution. The payload supports both vertical and horizontal camera orientations, enabling flexible data collection and reduced background noise for asset inspection, infrastructure mapping, and precision surveying. With plug-and-play compatibility for DJI M400/M350 and ready-for-integration with MAVLink/Auterion platforms, the P3 UAV Camera streamlines workflows and maximizes fleet utilization.
This system offers a versatile selection of lenses (35 mm, 80 mm, 80 mm AF, 150 mm AF) to meet ground sample distance (GSD) requirements from any safe distance. The iXM-GS120 sensor provides up to 120 MP resolution with electronic global shutter, ensuring coverage of large areas and capturing the finest details. Smart focusing is achieved via a built-in laser range finder with a maximum effective range of approximately 90 meters, while smart triggering enables automatic capture of fast-moving objects. The 3-axis stabilized gimbal ensures image stability, and the system is IP53 rated for environmental protection. Direct control via the DJI Pilot app and compatibility with third-party software further enhance operational efficiency for inspection, mapping, and surveying professionals.
Longest focal length 150mm lens
Longer distance – more details – increased safety
The lens offering increases productivity and ensures safe operation, without compromising on image quality. All Phase One lenses are factory-calibrated to the highest quality standards and has the best coverage to GSD ratio.

Largest image sensor
More coverage – fewer images – faster missions
The iXM medium format sensor has been the benchmark for many years for high-resolution aerial photography. This medium format sensor is 1.7 times larger than a standard 35mm full-frame sensor, which translates directly into inspection productivity.

Highest dynamic range
Extended operations – higher availability
The iXM reaches superior performance in low light & high contrast situations, thanks to its dynamic range of 83dB, low noise, and optimized pixel size.

Smart focus
Smart focus – sharper images – no repetition
Onsite inspection productivity depends on the ability to capture the correct data. End-to-end productivity means that the data has to constantly be of high quality. Phase One P3 Payload uses a smart focus system to ensure sharpness and consistent image quality.
