Drones have grown in popularity over the past few years, and each time a new one comes out they just continue to get better. DJI is one of the top drone brands, and its latest release, the Phantom 4, pushes the limits yet again. The Phantom 4 release date for most retailers is Friday, April 1st. With the Phantom 4, you gain auto takeoff and auto return home with GPS technology, touch to fly so you can simply tap a location on the controller and the drone will fly there, and more. DJI has put 4K cameras in other drones, like the Phantom 3 Pro, and the video results are stunning.
It's capable of capturing 30 fps with a 12MP sensor anad a f/2.8 lens. Coupling all of that technology with the built-in gimbal stabilization technology, you are able to get crisp and clear shots, and some simply breathtaking video. Below is a sample from the Phantom 3 Pro, which also offers 4K recording.
With all of this new technology built-in, and the additional features that DJI has included, the price tag has been bumped up a bit over the other ones. This time around, you are looking at around $1,400 to have a Phantom 4 for yourself. If that price doesn't bother you, let's take a look at some of the places you can buy one for yourself.
