It has been said in numerous posts that the camera and gimbal is the 'Achilles Heel' of the Mavic Pro. Are there any 3rd party cameras/gimbal on the market that replaces the original ? Possible market opportunity? Inerested in your opinions- note....be gentle this is my first post.

Howdy from Wyoming @Dingo444 , welcome to the community, plenty of fine folk and excellent information here. The camera is so integrated in the hardware and firmware that I think it would be extremely difficult to manufacture a third party replacement; it would be similar to trying to replace the camera on an iphone with a third party unit.
 
The only 3rd party gimbals that are available are Mavic gimbal copies, and they are trash.

There was never a gimbal made, that I have seen, that will enhance or replace the OEM Mavic unit.
 
By the time a third party manufacturer produced a better camera, that would integrate (if even possible, given the proprietary nature of the thing) it would cost more than just buying the Mavic 2.
