Smart capture for robust results
Make every shot count. Capture easily complex assets and moving objects with smart focusing and triggering.
High Dynamic Range. No Re-Flights.
P3 delivers full data recovery even in challenging lighting, eliminating the need for costly re-flights. Get complete, reliable inspection data in a single pass, saving time, reducing operational costs, and enhancing mission confidence.
Productivity Drivers
Longest focal length 150mm lens
Longer distance – more details – increased safety
- The lens offering increases productivity and ensures safe operation, without compromising on image quality
- All Phase One lenses are factory-calibrated to the highest quality standards
- Best coverage to GSD ratio
Largest image sensor
More coverage – fewer images – faster missions
The iXM medium format sensor has been the benchmark for many years for high-resolution aerial photography. This medium format sensor is 1.7 times larger than a standard 35mm full-frame sensor, which translates directly into inspection productivity.

Highest dynamic range
Extended operations – higher availability
The iXM reaches superior performance in low light & high contrast situations, thanks to its dynamic range of 83dB, low noise, and optimized pixel size.

Smart focus
Smart focus – sharper images – no repetition
Onsite inspection productivity depends on the ability to capture the correct data. End-to-end productivity means that the data has to constantly be of high quality. Phase One P3 Payload uses a smart focus system to ensure sharpness and consistent image quality.
