DJI appears to be gearing up to announce the third iteration of the Inspire drone platform. One of the most popular professional drones on the market, DJI hasn't refreshed the line in nearly seven years.
Almost a year after it was first teased, Sony is finally making the AirPeak S1 drone available to purchase. The drone was officially announced in June and ships with the main aircraft, four propellers, a remote, two batteries, and a charger.
Sony has finally unveiled its foray into aerial robotics and announced the Airpeak S1. The $9,000 professional-level drone promises to feature exceptional flight performance, obstacle detection systems, and "heavy-lift" capability in a device that is just slightly larger than a DJI Inspire 2.
DJI just announced the DJI Zenmuse X7, the world's first Super 35mm camera optimized for aerial cinematography. It's designed primarily for the DJI Inspire 2 drone and features interchangeable lenses as well as a new DJI Cinema Color system for greater creative freedom in cinematography.
When DJI debuted its fancy new Inspire 2 drone for filmmakers, it boasted some impressive features. Not least of all, DJI claimed it could do 0-50 mph in 4 seconds, and topped out at a whopping 67 mph. This is no longer the case.
Apparently, total domination isn't quite good enough for DJI. It's not enough that the Mavic has received rave reviews, beating the GoPro Karma so badly they started falling out of the sky in embarrassment. Today, DJI revealed two new drones that practically have aerial filmmakers wetting themselves.
