Has anyone seen if the X5s will be backward compatible with the Inspire 1 V2? I haven't found any info on this yet.
Nope a large part of the processing is done in drone, so you need an inspire 2.
If they can stick 100MBPS on a phantom 4 pro they should deliver something for the inspire 1 though, it makes the x5 look second rate.
Yeah but you need to spend at least 5k to get there.Why? the Inspire 1 is a platform that was just surpassed in a big way today
THe x5 and x5r are still great cameras. Youll never get interchangable DOF from a phantom which you can get for from the inspire 1 x5 / x5r
What would be interesting to see is if DJI does:
1) Release an inspire 2 body with mounts for x5 / x5r
2) Release an update (physical) to the x3 / x5 / x5r to make them equally as good x4s / x5s
3) Discontinues the whole inspire 1 line
1) No
2) No
3) No. it's still a good product for smaller shoots that don't need a ProRes/CinemaDNG camera
The X5 has much cleaner noise, and is a few notches better in overall quality, however it is not so drastic anymore compared to the original phantom 4, which is clearly the worst of all by a strong noticable margin.
So are you saying the X5 photo image looks better than P4P?

The X5 is incapable of being upgraded to 200mbps or even 100mbps due to its SOC architecture and dual stream video being utilised.My vote would be to unleash the bit-rate of the x5 to make it competitive. maybe 200mbps+ all Intra would make it competitive to the x4s. hopefully the hardware is up to it because I agree the inspire 1, at this point, shouldn't be out done by the phantom line. Or they could open it up and let the panasonic GH2/ magic lantern guys at it (never going to happen).
Either way I'm still planing to upgrade to x5 over p4p as the way I see it the ability to alter focal length affects the footage far more drastically and climatically then pixel peeping comparing 60mbs to 150 h.265. either way its all 8bit.
Not a chance - The X5 is already maxed out. Push it any harder and it will glow!@The Editor, are you talking about the steam to the card and the live feed? I don't how much different the hardware of the X5r is but that seems capable of a 3rd signal: Raw, SDcard, and live feed. Just trying to better understand your knowledge.
The limit with the Panasonic GH cams in the past has been the card write speed as a larger bitrate stressed that pipeline. The processor on the GH2 that came stock with 28mbps had the overhead to push 170mbps+ I-frame. I hoped that there might be a similar overhead in the x5
