Why is there a yellow/orange drone symbol in every product picture?! Has this anything to do with he drones or is it just that its DJI making it? Cant remember seeing it in all the other product lines?

Wasnt it a regulation though that made lithium batteries have to be protected from explosion which is why they are not typically replaceable.

Not sure about that. I thought it was about making it easier to waterproof some electronics, and probably a sneaky move from companies to enforce us to buy new items when the batteries die for good.

This is true and coming. In the future all devices including smartphones sold in EU must have user replacement battery because 70% of the problems are causing the battery.

But yes this is coming.

I've also heard some phone and smart device companies are currently lobbying against it. But we'll see what happens. Maybe they have to give up the same way as Apple had to bend to EU's will with the USB-C question.

Its a watermark added by the leaker so that other people cant take credit for his leak.

I just had a quick google.    It appears to be a combination of protecting the battery and making the devices smaller.

It has low light mode... what could it be other than shutter speed and ISO pre-setting...
Possible low light oriented HDR video function?
Or is it like that high ISO + noise reduction function like some drones have?

Initial booting speed is like a half second. That is quick!
No gimbal initialization movement.

You mean $531?
If its the creator combo, fine price.
If Pocket 3 alone... hmmm

I see that is for pocket 3 alone and $676 for combo... Ouch.

Seeing it's F2.0 and possible 12MP sensor... I guess I am buying it.

My Pocket 1's motor is almost dead and I had no luck with Pocket 2...
So it's about time for me to upgrade.

The new screen on the Pocket 3 is very alluring compared to the previous versions.

I actually didn't mind the original small screen.
At this point, I am already got used to using the small screen only for a reference.

If its dynamic range is decent and its 1" sensor can do on par with RX100V in terms of image quality.
It is way better choice for me than using RX100 + gimbal which would cost more. I guess.

That is what they usually say for the reasons. Possibly true, possibly not. Who knows.

Does anyone know as I haven't seen anyone mention, does the mic 2 work with the action 4 camera too?

I was hoping could connect to both devices ?

I just had to move it a few times and then the 'something' was gone and the gimbal moved freely again.
