There for confirmed eveyrone who bought an x5r / x5 is out of luck. I wonder how this is going to play down to the osmo line as well?
Im guessing they will keep the x5 and x5r since including the sensor in the handle will greatly increase the price. At least we have a few months to swallow this and bend over =) |

Definitely upset the X5R wont work on it. Im willing to spend money for the aircraft but again DJI feels the need to not make anything backward compatible thus we all have to spend a ridiculous amount to upgrade the camera again! Seems like they dont care about the 5k I spent on a modular camera. Thanks for gouging is all DJI!!

Any assessment on the difference of the 4k/30fps modes: 60MBit/H.264 of the X5 to the new 100Mbit/H.265 of the X5S? Both, the higher data rate and better codec should improve the video quality, but we all know it depends on the implementation as well.
Also, is the H.265 using 8 or 10 bit color encoding? |

From the looks of it, the connector is totally different on the i2

There are some important things to remember:
1. The Inspire 1 remains a fabulous platform for shooting aerial video. Along with the X5R. You can still get great performance and images from both. 2. Technology marches forward. Always. Don't bank on anything to be backwards compatible or future upgradeable. The only thing I'm really upset about is that they didn't stick with the same SSDs from the X5R for the X5S. That feels pretty rough, considering they are likely nearly identical. But, that's life. 3. I do think Z3 owners are owed more of an apology/compensation for how long those basically were entirely useless. And Lightbridge 2 owners have been left in the cold on some features/functionality. It would be nice for DJI to more formally address those concerns. But otherwise, I think DJI does a pretty amazing job of innovating. If they constantly tried to make new tech compatible with old tech, it would likely take much longer to bring products to bear or we'd see some features being left out in order to ensure compatibility. Seeing the P4Pro with 100mbps H.265 and a 1" sensor, and the Inspire 1 with all it's great features, pilot cam, X5S with ProRes etc etc etc, makes me glad that they seemingly started from scratch a bit. The price, though seemingly high, is I think pretty reasonable for the feature set. 4k 60p. 5.2k 30fps. ProRes. Just an incredible feature set for a flying camera. Anyways. I get the frustration. I've got multiple X5R SSDs that cost me $1500 a pop that won't be usable on the new X5S. But honestly in the camera world, you get used to technology marching forward every year, and every year spending thousands and thousands to keep up with the latest bodies, accessories, etc. That's just what happens. I for one, think the new features are worth the price. Clients will be stoked to see the options I can offer with an Inspire 2, and willing to pay accordingly. Remember, the Inspire 2 is a professional platform for making money. You'll earn the cost back soon with enough work. |
