@The Editor hey thanks, some interesting read!
No solution, but it's been a discussion by others.
The 3D printed plate was an interesting concept... all manual but would add lens options.
The mention of DJI introducing a few more DL lenses... 12 & 85mm.
I'd tend to agree, more would be introduced but it's been what...2 years since introduction of the X7?
I'd like to see a DL 10mm f2 Auto... that'd be a perfect!
Like the Loawa in the X5S, and will get DL 9mm... but the Manual Lens is a bit of a fussy setup.
My focus was more the other way around... find a body that is similar in sensor and accepts the DL Lenses for hand carry or hand gimbal mount. So you'd maintain the same lens aerial to ground.
Like a Sony A6000 series with a S35 season size.
Great reads thanks...
