Date of publication:14.04.2017
DJI has announced the launch of the Phantom 4 Advanced drone, which will replace the Phantom 4 model in the lineup. The new Phantom 4 Advanced has a more serious camera than the current Phantom 4, and thus, the new product will take place above the Phantom 4, and slightly below than the Phantom 4 Pro.
The "regular" Phantom 4 uses a small 1 / 2.3 ”CMOS sensor with a resolution of 12 megapixels. The updated Phantom 4 Advanced will feature a 20MP sensor and, just as important, a much larger 1 ”format. The new camera uses a mechanical shutter (rather than an electronic one like the Phantom 4) and can shoot 4K video at 60 frames per second, as opposed to 30 frames per second on the Phantom 4.
“More powerful video processing now allows you to shoot 4K video at 60 fps with the H.264 codec, or 4K @ 30 with the H.265 codec. Both - with a bit rate of 100 M / s, ”explains DJI. "Superior optics, sensor and processors deliver the wider dynamic range and finer image detail required for post-production."
Flight time has been increased from 28 to 30 minutes, and the capacity of the microSD memory card has been increased from 64 to 128 GB.
The Phantom 4 Advanced's five optical sensors allow you to use many of the features from the older Phantom 4 Pro model, namely: FlightAutonomy, Draw, ActiveTrack, TapFly, Gesture, Tripod. Dual satellite positioning systems (GPS and GLONASS), ultrasonic rangefinders and forward obstacle avoidance system allow the Phantom 4 Advanced to hover perfectly in one place (including where there is no GPS) and fly in difficult environments.
The word “Advanced” in the name of the DJI Phantom 4 Advanced is already a comparative characteristic and means “advanced”, “more advanced”. However, this was not enough for the developers. The new model will be available in two versions: simply Advanced and Advanced +. Inevitably, one recalls the classic dystopian novel by George Orwell "1984", where in the described future the English language will become increasingly simplified and pragmatic, and comparative degrees will be formed by adding the words "Plus" and "Plus Plus" to the adjectives.
The Phantom 4 Advanced + Plus version features a 5.5-inch 1080p display built into the console. At the same time, the screen brightness is twice as high as that of smartphones.
With the release of the new DJI Phantom 4 Advanced, production of the current Phantom 4 will be discontinued on April 30, 2017. However, the manufacturer promises that support from Phantom 4 owners will continue.
