List of Sub 250g Camera Drones
There are far more sub 250 gram camera drones available on the market, but here at ActionCameraFinder.com we only list camera drones which we feel are capable of being great film making and aerial photography tools for video and photography work.
Some of these are not the biggest brands, such as DJI, but they are more than capable of capturing stunning aerial shots and helping you create the films you want to create.
We have successfully used a couple of these drones for video stock footage and even had some work on the biggest TV networks in the world.
And the reason we managed to get such great footage, is because we had the camera drones with us, and that is the beauty of these mini pocketable camera drones, you shouldn't have any excuse, other than high winds to not have the drone with you.
And below you can compare each and every sub 250g mini camera drone, whether you're looking for the longest battery life, or the biggest transmission distance.
Whatever it is, we have included each and every feature of each sub 250g drone so that you can compare them side by side. And when we add new camera drones to the database and they are 249grams or lighter, they will automatically get added to this list, so you can always compare the latest releases by all camera drone manufacturers.
As you look through the table to compare the specific features of each camera drone, take a look at the far right where it says more specs. You can select the individual features by which you wish to compare the drones and limit the comparison table to just these columns which will make it easier to directly compare the multiple drones in the table.
