I’m going to try and be so restrained if it is a Mavic replacement with a killer camera but I know in reality I’ll be more

I just put a P4P V2 in my shopping cart. I already have a MP and personally I don't feel the need of a better camera in a drone so portable, so if the announcement is about a new mid-end drone like the MP i would not be intrested (i doubt it would be better than the phantom series).
In your opinion should i go ahead and buy the P4P V2 or is there any chance that they will unveil a Phantom 5?

I would hold off because what if you change your mind after whatever is released is released and also may drop the price of the p4pv2.  That is if you can wait that long.  If not then go for it.

I had just posted it in a parallel thread opened by somebody else:

Hah, this is exactly what I expected to happen right after Autel and Parrot would eventually launch their new models! D-Day is coming and I fully agree with others here that it will most probably be what many of us have been waiting for. The still new and outstanding Zenmuse X7 and the even more recent dual version with infrared cam are far too recent for yet another camera. On the Osmo and Ronin side all is too new still as well and the teaser picture clearly points to a flying device. On the Phantom branch we have just seen the launch of the P4P V2, thus not a P5 to expect this fast afterwards. What remains now is something new (whatever it will be called) replacing the Mavic Pro series and being below 900 grammes weight. Today I realised another indication for this. Just go to the main DJI website and watch which products are displayed there one after the other https://www.dji.com/ . The only model familiar to us that is missing there is the Mavic Pro/Platinum.

the question I would like to know is, will the new Mavic Pro 2, etc.... if anouned on the 18th. Will the Camera Equal or even beat the Phantom 4 Pro's Camera?  I ask this even though I just bought a new P4P Version Two, and can return it on the 19. It's still NIB and Unopened. I ordered it the day before the announcement news.  I will update the flight data to my Spark later tonight. I think you may find it interesting. my guess is.... maybe i should had done a more recent compass calibrations because I hadn't done one for a month.

We all have many questions indeed but will have to wait for the day. Let me know if you believe I can help you with your Spark.

(Clearing throat) The announcement will be for the mavic Pro iris almost identical to the mavic Pro only significantly larger in size with a camera with a one inch senor with interchangeable lenses and 6 way obstacle avoidance. It will also have quite props, 1080 live feed and will be priced at around the same as the current mavic series....

then they will no longer be able to sell any P4P.... so I think you are Wrong.

The p4 Pro has the same camera as the inspire 2 with x4 zenmuse and they sell a lot of inspire 2’s so I think you are wrong and I am right......

It’s hard telling,not knowing but if I were you I would wait till after the announcement. A few years ago I order the “new and improved” phantom 2 v3 thinking it will be a long time before dji does any other upgrade and low and behold two weeks later they unveiled the phantom 3 with better camera and lightbridge and it was $400 cheaper!!

Gosh, that must have been a tough one to swallow, were you able to return the P2?

At the time, lightbridge was a new thing so I had know idea how superior it was over wi-if so I held on the the phantom 2  too long and missed the return date, I ended up buying the phantom 3 and sold the phantom 2 too a coworker of mine for $500 bucks. I took a $1000 loss on it

That's not fun. I had a huge loss on my few months old Spark as well once the Mavic Air had come out...

I took a loss on the spark as well, on my first flight I did a gesture to make the spark take a “selfie” and it took off flying to the left until it crashed into my porch...

I just really am excited to see what will be unveiled on July 18th as I am sure whatever it is will be amazing since after all how often does DJI do an announcement and each time they do something awesome is out.
