Can you please do a solo camera upgrade for the phantom 3 (pro or all of them) series? I'm stoked for the new lineup, but how about some optical zoom with 20mp camera uprades for us older p3/p4(non-pro) users? . I know it's heavy request, but there definately is a market out there for DJI upgrades. I mean even if you priced it at let's say $500+, people will still buy it. Win-win for everyone.

Sincerely
P3P flyer

There is no incentive for DJI to do this, they would much rather you buy a new P4P instead. Do Apple make an upgrade package for the iPhone 2?

And optical zoom has been discussed many times here. It is not practical, just fly closer to the object.

Unfortunately I don't believe that this will be possible with the processing power that would be needed from the aircraft as well.

And what is wrong with money? Do you make things and give them away for nothing?

CPU power and processing grows rapidly.
Look at all the cell phones and the CPU power in last year or so

More processing allows more feature options and model
just like cars  etc

I myself rather like money
I like making it even more!

Reallocating the camera processing power helps improve the functionality of these new cameras. Like Kirk said, the quality of CPUs and processors in general are progressing rapidly and drastic changes are consequential to this progression.

Optical zoom makes it too easy for the drones to be used to spy on people.  I doubt it will happen on hobbyist grade drones.
