Freewell Advanced Wide Angle & Anamorphic Lens Kit for Mini 4 Pro

In this review of the Freewell Advanced Wide Angle & Anamorphic Lens Kit for the Mini 4 Pro, the bottom line is simple: this kit is for drone pilots who want dramatically wider framing and a cinematic anamorphic look without adding bulky glass. The reviewer found the pair of lightweight lenses particularly useful for landscape and architectural work, and notes the single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a 111 field of view from the wide-angle lens and the classic 1.19x squeeze and blue anamorphic flares from the anamorphic lens, all designed to fit the Mini 4 Pro with attention to gimbal compatibility.

Key Features

• Gimbal Compatibility Notice: The kit specifies installing an ND filter after powering on the Mini 4 Pro to ensure stable gimbal operation and consistent performance.
• Wide-Angle Mastery: The 3.1 gram wide-angle lens delivers a 111 field of view so pilots can capture expansive landscapes and tighter interior or architectural scenes without stitching.
• Cinematic Blue Anamorphic Flair: The 3.0 gram anamorphic lens applies a 1.19x squeeze and blue-tinted flares to give footage a widescreen cinematic aesthetic straight from the drone.
• Lightweight Design: Both lenses are extremely light, minimizing added weight to maintain the Mini 4 Pro flight characteristics while expanding creative options.
• Easy Installation: Users report the lenses and associated filters are straightforward to mount and remove, making it practical to swap optics in the field.

Who It's For

The kit is aimed at hobbyists and independent content creators using the DJI Mini 4 Pro who want a simple way to broaden framing and achieve anamorphic cinematic effects without buying a larger drone or complex rig. Landscape photographers, travel filmmakers, and real-estate shooters will appreciate the expanded field of view and the characteristic lens flares.

It is less appropriate for pilots who need fully integrated, motorized gimbal calibration workflows or those unwilling to follow the ND filter power-on advice for gimbal compatibility. Professionals requiring interchangeable full-frame glass or extreme low-light performance should consider higher-end cinema options.

Pros & Cons

Pros
