the popularity of drones has gone up a fair amount in the last year with one of
the most sought after being the DJI Phantom 2 so let's see how the newly
announced Phantom 3 Compares Linus Tech tips coverage of NAB 2015 is powered by
Sennheiser Kingston SD cards and
linda.com the new Phantom 3 comes in two flavors a professional and advanced
version starting with the professional DJ has chosen to go with their own 4k
camera for this drone the lens on the camera is a 20 mm Prime with an f- stop
of 2.8 DJI also mentioned me that the lens on the Phantom 3 is rectilinear
which essentially means it will no longer have a fisheye like Distortion in
the image NVIDIA mode on the camera the iso ranges from 100 to 3200 and in
Stills mode it's 100 to 1,600 the camera
has the ability to shoot single shot Stills burst mode in three five and
seven shots Auto exposure bracketing and time lapse on the bottom of the unit DJI
has added what they are calling Vision positioning technology this this allows
the Phantom 3 to fly indoors and load to the ground more accurately this lowers
the chance of the Phantom 3 crashing if say the controller ran out of battery
mid-flight by giving the Drone the ability to land itself with the context
of how high up it is both versions of the Phantom 3 are using a new 3axis giml
that is perfectly suited for the included camera the Phantom 3 will also
now be utilizing dji's pilot mobile app which is the same app used with their
more professional drone the Inspire 1 flying the Phantom 3 is still a
relatively easy process using the new dedicated controller which also bar
borrows from the Inspire one design with the new controller an operator could use
a phone or tablet to Monitor and control the Drone from a distance of up to 2 km
the Phantom 3 is very Nimble in operation with the ability to suddenly
drop very quickly while Landing in the spot you want the advanced supporting a
1080p HD camera for those who do not want to deal with the workflow of 4K
footage DJI is entering the Drone Market aggressively with the Phantom 3 the
professional version is priced at $12.59 and the advanced version is priced at
999 which given the feature set is fair competitive to the current market one
interesting thing I found with the release of the Phantom 3 is DJI move
away from actively supporting GoPro cameras there does not seem to be a
version of the Phantom 3 coming that will have GoPro support that may change
in the future but for now DJI is pushing forward with the cameras that they have chosen to conclude with their drones
