The DJI Zenmuse P1 is a professional full-frame photogrammetry payload built for high-accuracy aerial surveying on the Matrice 300 RTK, Matrice 350 RTK, and Matrice 400 RTK. It combines a 45MP full-frame CMOS sensor (35.9 x 24mm) with a 3-axis stabilized gimbal, a global mechanical shutter, and three interchangeable DL prime lenses (24mm, 35mm, and 50mm f/2.8) to capture distortion-free imagery across any terrain type or survey scale.

Built for survey teams that need to cover large areas efficiently, the P1 fires a new frame every 0.7 seconds and maps up to 3 km² in a single flight at 100m AGL with the 24mm lens. TimeSync 2.0 synchronizes each exposure to the RTK GNSS feed at microsecond precision, producing 3 cm horizontal and 5 cm vertical accuracy without deploying ground control points on every site. Smart Oblique Capture enables nadir and multi-angle imagery in one pass, generating complete 3D reconstructions far faster than traditional multi-flight workflows.
