Pro First Night Flight over Montreal with the DJI Mini 5 Pro - Impressive Low-Light Performance!

Hey everyone,

I just completed my first night flight with the DJI Mini 5 Pro, and I have to say - I’m seriously impressed by its low-light capabilities.

I flew over downtown Montreal and the Old Port around 9 PM, when the city was still alive with lights and activity. The 1-inch sensor performed beautifully - the highlights stayed clean, and the shadows held plenty of detail without too much noise.


Here’s the short cinematic edit from that flight:

Everything was shot in manual mode and later graded in DaVinci Resolve. The music was created with Suno AI, matching the calm, moody atmosphere of the city at night.

I’m really impressed with how the Mini 5 Pro handles these conditions for such a compact drone.

Very nicely done. Great editing. And the music is well chosen and appropriate. It's good to hear music in a drone video that doesn't sound like the tense and dramatic soundtrack for the onset of World War III.
