The new DJI Inspire 2 with Zenmuse X5s is a flying GH5

bildschirmfoto-2016-11-16-um-11-06-36

The new

DJI announced the new Inspire 2 Quadcopter (specs and preorder here) and Zenmuse X5s (specs and preorder here). And it’s a sort of flying GH5 as it records 5.2K and 4K 60FPS! TheVerge reports:

DJI has designed a new image processing system for the Inspire 2 meant to satisfy professional filmmakers. They call it CineCore 2.0, and it can capture 5.2K video at a whopping 4.2Gbps bitrate. To handle all that data, the Inspire 2 has added an onboard SSD. You can buy this drone with the new Zenmuse X4S or X5S camera. The latter feature a micro 4/3 sensor and supports 10 different lenses, including zooms. And the system supports video compression formats that matter to pros, like CinemaDNG and Apple ProRes. For photographers there is a DNG RAW mode that captures 30-megapixel still images. And it can stream video in broadcast-quality formats for local news crews who want live aerial video from the scene of an unfolding event.

And now check out those detailed graphs:

Full specs:

  • Gimbal + Camera + Lens
  • Micro 4/3 Sensor
  • 5.2K at 30 fps / 4K at 60 fps
  • 20.8MP Still Images
  • 12.8 Stops of Dynamic Range
  • 12-Bit Raw
  • 20 fps Continuous Burst
