What Is Moment Air?
It’s not one but three new products (plus accessories)... all for DJI Drones. Over the last five years we have made our camera phones better with lenses, cases, and camera straps. We wanted to do the same for our drones. In our exploration of how to make drones better we realized that shooting Anamorphic video was expensive, the filters weren't sharp enough, phone cases don't fit in the controller, no one wears drone backpacks and helipads weren't mobile enough. We decided to fix all of that with Moment Air. Five years in the making this takes everything we have learned and brings it to drones.
If you don’t have a Mavic 2 and want us to make gear for your drone add your info to this survey so we can figure out how to bring moment to your drone.
Drone Anamorphic Lens (For Mavic 2)
Juicy horizontal flares, true black bars, and that buttery cinematic look. Attachable to the front of your DJI Mavic Pro or Zoom, this lens uses our premium glass to get that wide angle shot without losing compression. This lens will deliver the results that were once only reserved for hollywood camera setups.
The Lens That Gives Your Footage Character
Hand polished, we use cinema quality glass that you normally find in 4K cinema cameras. What makes our anamorphic lenses the best is how our proprietary design minimizes lateral chromatic aberration while using a unique set of coatings to deliver a horizontal flare associated with vintage anamorphics. The lens brings out unique flares in different conditions, from sunsets to headlights. Your footage will pop.
Lock and Balance Mounting System
There is no standard for how to attach and balance a lens on a drone, so we made one. Introducing our Lock and Balance Mounting System. It’s a two part design with a lens on one side and a counterweight on the other. The two parts clamp together over the drone’s camera, creating a secure lock that doesn’t impede the gimbal.

Last but not least. Ultra Thin Photo Case
Inspired by filmmakers, drone flyers, and minimalists this is the case you don’t have to take off to use. Its no-slip grip texture makes it easy to hold and its 0.75mm thinness means that it fits into your drone controller, gimbal, or tripod with ease. Its matte black design looks really, really good and it’s aerospace grade composite body only adds 12 grams to your phone. Its open spacing on the bottom of the iPhone makes it easier to connect a microphone, light or cable. While its M-Series mount means you can still shoot with a Moment lens. This is the case we always wanted to make.
There are a lot more accessories for your pleasure, make sure to check out their Kickstarter for more details and decide on which package is better for you.
