Got my Phantom 2 for a few months now, I wonder if it will be possible to upgrade the Phantom 2 with the new 4K camera?I really love the P2, only downside for me is the image quality...

Does anyone know?

Just look it up yourself straight from DJI instead of posting it:

It doesn't say anything on there that is is not.  It says it's permanently attached, but so is the one on my P2.   

I doubt that it is, but if you don't want to help, fine, dont, but you don't tell me to look somewhere and there is not an answer there that I can see.  If there is, please point it out and I will apologize.

I would also think that when they release firmware for the drone camera etc.. it would be for the factory configuration and not modified versions with new cameras.  And I doubt they would make smart enough software to tell id you have the p2 camera or the p3.
Maybe we can cross our fingers and hope they release a 4k camera for the p2.  But then the software would have to be smart enough to know which camera you have installed.  I think this is very doubtful, but there is always a chance.

The fisheye effect can be removed if you have Lightroom and shoot raw.  Do it all the time - it works great.
