Dji Dl 75mm F1.8 Lens

DJI DL 75mm F/2.8 Lens – Medium Telephoto for the Zenmuse X9 System

This DJI DL-mount lens is the 75mm prime for the Zenmuse X9 camera system, used on the Inspire 3 drone and the Ronin 4D cinema camera. On the X9’s full-frame sensor, 75mm gives the compressed, intimate framing that cinematographers reach for when a subject needs to stand apart from its surroundings: portrait work, product films, interview close-ups and tightly framed action.

The lens uses DJI’s ASF (aspherical floating) optical design to hold sharpness and contrast at its maximum f/2.8 aperture, and the barrel is built in carbon fibre to keep the X9 gimbal balanced and flight times intact. Note that this listing’s title says F1.8; the DL 75mm manufactured by DJI is an f/2.8 lens, which is the specification described here and on the product’s data.

Key features

• 75mm prime lens for the DJI DL mount
• Maximum aperture f/2.8 for low light and shallow depth of field
• ASF aspherical floating optical design
• Designed for Zenmuse X9 cameras (Inspire 3 and Ronin 4D)
• Carbon fibre barrel keeps weight low for gimbal balance
• Full-frame image circle matching the X9 sensor
• Manual focus and aperture control via the camera system
• Consistent rendering with the DL 18mm, 24mm, 35mm and 50mm primes

What 75mm does to an image

Focal length is a creative decision before it is a technical one. At 75mm, perspective compresses: backgrounds stack closer behind the subject, faces render with flattering proportions, and a shallow depth of field at f/2.8 melts surroundings into a smooth backdrop. From a drone, that compression turns landscapes into layered graphic compositions; on a Ronin 4D at ground level, it produces the close, cinematic interview framing that wider lenses cannot.

Built for a gimbal, not a shelf

Every gram on a gimbal camera affects balance, motor load and flight time, which is why the DL lens range uses carbon fibre barrels and tight weight matching across focal lengths. Swapping from the 35mm to this 75mm on an Inspire 3 keeps the gimbal close to its tuned balance, so lens changes on location stay fast. The optical design maintains performance wide open, where aerial work in low light often lives.

Who this lens suits

Choose the DL 75mm if you already shoot with a Zenmuse X9 on Inspire 3 or Ronin 4D and your work needs subject isolation and compression: commercials, weddings, portrait-led brand films and cinematic B-roll. It completes a DL prime set rather than starting one.

Handling and pairing within the DL set

The DL prime range shares filter threads, handling character and colour rendering, so a set built over time grades consistently in the edit. The 75mm pairs naturally with the 35mm as a two-lens aerial kit – the 35mm for establishing and environmental frames, the 75mm for subject-led compression – and with the 24mm and 50mm in a full Ronin 4D ground package. Protect the rear element and mount contacts in transit; the lens is a precision instrument despite its working brief.
