That’s the question though, did they give up on that design, optical zoom, in favor of 2 or 3 cameras because of cost and image quality reasons? Certainly it’s easier to put in 2 or 3 cameras instead of developing a bespoke zoom which would be...
There's no R&D. They avoid spending on more costly sensors like stacked CMOS and other components.
But they have to give people a reason to buy or upgrade to the newest drones so 50 or 100 Mp is what's meant to stand out in a spec sheet...
Thanks, yeah it was one of the top results on a Google search and I actually thought it was the DJI site.

These doesn’t seem to be much innovation in camera sensors in general and especially at smaller sensor sizes, since phones are taking away camera sales.
In one inch and Micro 4/3 sensors, resolution still tops out at 20 Mp. Where DJI could have...
