You're all putting WAY too much thought into this.  It probably just marks the end of an extra long work shift.

New camera for Inspire 1 please!!

If the lens representing the "O" in "Inspiration" is any clue you may get your wish!

Maybe a zoom lens...that will really freak out the drone-O-phobes ....

T-minus 1 Hour 5 mins and 10 seconds

A friend of mine was sent this info earlier today and it pretty much goes along with the article ME posted from quadcopter.co.uk so it would seem this one is for the professional videographers that are either using an Inspire 1 or the Matrice 100 for filming.

Close but no cigar.

The cost of the camera with gimbal for the RAW model is $2200. Then you have a choice of three lenses offered by DJI from $600 and up.

The Inspire 1 with the new camera and DJI lens is $4500 with single remote.

Camera has 12.8 stop adjustable aperture. 4K in RAW or 16MP for stills.

Very interesting camera with a 512 gb SD card.

If i knew this would happen i would have got it instead of the phantom 3

Crazy that Inspire 1 Pro runs $4499 haha
