The x4s will not take better images than an X5 with a 12mm Olympus.

I hope my clients do not perceive my photo license as "imaginary" being as how it is a clear and stated contract to use the work I have created. DJI is doing it this way and you don't seem to even know what RAW video is so why are you so concerned with it, it is a very high end and...

Well to be honest the dual battery and seemingly more reliable system appears to be a nice upgrade. The more I think of it the more I think there is a nice gap that dji can fill in their lineup. A still photographers drone, with little to no video centric Functions. The inspire is great but...

That is a great point, and essentially the price point I think a photo centric drone of this caliber shouldbe be placed, 3-4K. With the video features it is under priced if you ask me, however I am only interested in still photography, and personally feel it is overpriced for those needs. Not by...

You have been flying the inspire 2 and the phantom 4 pro for sometime now?

I think DJI has done something unique here, they have perfected the X5r which appeared to be a bit of a workflow mess. This drone/camera will not replace the need or want of a cinema camera with cinema lenses for those with an infinite budget.

DJI Phantom 4 Pro – Specs, FAQ, Tutorials and Downloads

Are you speaking mainly of video? Because if you go to the DJI site and download the P4P sample image folder it has images where you can compare the exact scene of a P4P/P4/X5 and the X5 is noticeably the best still image quality by a large margin.

Yes, The images that are available for download on dji site under the phantom 4 pro section downloads. The images are labeled however I am unsure if the phantom 4 image is a phantom 4 or a phantom 3 as it does not say, it is clear that the X5 is a 15mm 1.7 lens and he phantom 4 pro is such...

I just placed and pixel peeps images from an x5 15mm, phantom 4 and phantom 4 pro all side by side in Photoshop. They are available for download on the dji site. What I can say is the gap has closed considerably. The p4pro is noticeably cleaner and crisper with better image quality. The lens...

Based on what we have out there, you can compare a Sony rx100 to a gh4 with comparable lens specs and have your answer. In my opinion based on what I have seen, the x4s will video image quality will be similar to the x5 (if not better with the 100mb/s) but the photo quality should be likely...

It is just data gathering and testing.

Flyway? How can you get a bird up to 5,000 ft on purpose?

The 5D3 Magic lantern raw hack users reported having dropped frames, fluttering exposures, flicker among other issues in the beginning. Obviously a horribly erroneous comparison, but the only one I can think of that would suggest that Raw video is not a fail proof form of capture.

Dji should just team up with Sony. The a6300 is so incredible. If they could shrink wrap that into a small camera it would be incredible in the air.
