DJI, renowned as a frontrunner in the drone and creative camera technology industry, has officially launched the Lito series—a captivating range of camera drones specifically designed for novice users eager to dive into the world of aerial photography. On April 23, 2026, this announcement introduces two models: the Lito X1 and the Lito 1, both tailored to make high-quality aerial imaging more accessible than ever.

Targeted at first-time drone operators, these drones open a world of possibilities for capturing engaging visuals of campus life, outdoor excursions, and memorable moments without overwhelming complexity.
Premium Features for Bright Beginnings
Leading the series is the
Lito X1, equipped with a robust 1/1.3" CMOS sensor. With a staggering resolution of 48MP, this camera promises lifelike photo quality that captures intricate details. The drone also boasts advanced
5-lux omnidirectional obstacle sensing and forward-facing LiDAR technology, providing enhanced safety and precision during flights—especially in intricate environments. On the other hand, the

Enhanced Flying Safety
Safety is paramount in the design of the Lito series. Both models come equipped with a multi-layered safety system, actively preventing collisions with obstacles such as trees and buildings using its sophisticated vision and sensing systems.

The Lito X1 further refines this experience with its additional LiDAR sensors for precise navigational assistance in complex settings.

What sets the Lito series apart is its ability to deliver captivating imagery, regardless of the shooting conditions. The
Lito 1 shines with an f/1.8 aperture, enabling it to capture up to
8K-resolution photos and
4K-resolution videos. Not only does it promise stunning, detailed captures in daylight, but it also excels in low-light conditions, resulting in rich, noise-free night shots. The premium
Lito X1, with its f/1.7 aperture, supports HDR video recordings with incredible dynamic range, further elevating the creative possibilities for users.
User-friendly Creative Tools
