Overview
Sony ILX-LR1 61 MP Camera with Sigma 24 mm f/3.5 Mapping Lens: Precision mapping payload for Freefly Astro series
The Sony ILX-LR1 Mapping Payload is an enterprise-grade aerial imaging system designed for precision mapping and inspection missions. Integrated with a 61 MP full-frame sensor and a lightweight Sigma 24 mm f/3.5 lens, this payload captures ultra-high-resolution imagery optimized for photogrammetry and data modeling. Designed and assembled in the USA with NDAA-compliant components, it integrates seamlessly with the Freefly Astro and Astro Max through the Smart Dovetail interface for rapid deployment.
Professional imaging for aerial survey and inspection
The ILX-LR1's 35.7 × 23.9 mm full-frame Exmor R sensor produces 9,504 × 6,336 pixel images with superior dynamic range and minimal distortion-ideal for creating accurate orthomosaics and 3D models. With a total system weight of 970 grams (including gimbal and lens), the payload maintains long flight endurance on Astro platforms, typically 28-34 minutes. The Sigma 24 mm f/3.5 lens ensures uniform edge-to-edge sharpness, making it well-suited for mapping and infrastructure surveys.
