The camera includes built in LiDAR focusing, which can be used with all the compatible lenses, autofocus and manual that work with the camera, and built in Wireless Transmission to multiple receivers at 20,000 ft, including a full wheel system. Both cameras have dual native iso, the 8K is 800/4000 and the 6K is 800/5000 and both have 113+ stops or more of Dynamic Range. And built in 9 stop ND filters! The lens work with interchangeable lens mounts, from DJI’s propriety DL mount, to Leica M mount.
With the built in LiDAR it can do ActiveTrack Pro for autofocus subject tracking and shows a LiDAR waveform for enhanced manual focus. The remote receives can also have full control of the camera for an operator. It can also shoot to CFexpress type b, external USB 3 or an internal DJI ProSSD. And it has built in microphones, plug 3.5mm and XLR microphone inputs. Also impressive are sensors on the bottom that help with balancing, though someone will have to make plates that have holes fro the sensors. And it can record in H.264 or ProRES or ProRES RAW.
Now the lenses are where I think this will be more of a purposeful camera vs a camera you shoot full features on, because it has limited lenses it is compatible with (and impressively you don’t have to do much to balance the cameras with these lenses). Here is the list of lenses in pdf form, there are currently 3 DJI DL lenses, 8 M Mount Leica lenses, 38 E mount with lenses from Sony, Tamron, Zeiss, Sigma, Voigtlander and Sirui. These are all pretty small lenses and not the lenses that pro cinematographers are going to want to use, but for certain situations this will be an impressive camera.
It is a beastly looking camera and a strange body. I am guessing you mostly use it with handles on both sides, but it can also work shoulder mounted.
It does seem expensive, but wait until we see how well this thing shoots. Actually I would like to see something much more in between this and the awesome DJI Pocket.
