The Zenmuse X5 (526g) and X5R (583g) are 4K cameras capable of capturing 16-million-pixel still images.
The slightly larger X5R is capable of shooting ‘lossless cinema 4K raw video’, according to DJI.
Features include a top ISO of 25,600, maximum shutter speed of 1/8000sec and a burst rate up to seven frames per second.
Also on board are autobracketing and timelapse modes.
Images can be stored on an SD card.
DJI has also announced a 15mm f/1.7 Asph lens, designed to deliver the 35mm equivalent of a 30mm optic.
The 9-elements-in-7-groups lens contains three aspherical elements and seven diaphragm blades.
There is as yet no word on UK prices.
