The Hasselblad DJI Mavic 3 uses the built-in lens (fixed-lens camera) with a 1.95× crop factor (about 18.4 × 12.3 mm sensor). Below: equivalent focal lengths, maximum shutter speeds for sharp stars, a hyperfocal distance chart and how to check the shutter count.

NPF = (35 × f-number + 30 × pixel pitch) ÷ focal length, with a pixel pitch of 3.3 µm (typical for this format — exact resolution not in our database). The strict version (Michaud's detailed NPF for the galactic core) gives pin-point stars at 100% view; the 500 rule is a loose rule of thumb that shows trailing on modern sensors.
Hyperfocal distance chart

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mm | 2.3 m | 1.2 m | 0.8 m | 0.6 m | 0.4 m |
| 14 mm | 4.6 m | 2.3 m | 1.6 m | 1.2 m | 0.8 m |
| 16 mm | 6.0 m | 3.0 m | 2.1 m | 1.5 m | 1.1 m |

| 35 mm | 28 m | 14 m | 10.0 m | 7.3 m | 5.0 m |
Focus at the hyperfocal distance and everything from half that distance to infinity is acceptably sharp (circle of confusion 0.0154 mm). Use the hyperfocal calculator for other settings.
How to check the Hasselblad DJI Mavic 3 shutter count
Not every maker writes a shutter count into image files. Try `exiftool -a -G1 -s image` on an unedited original and look for a tag containing "Shutter" or "Count".
ExifTool tag: (varies). Always test an original, unedited file straight from the card.
