Will DJI shake up the mirrorless camera industry?

An update about the new rumored DJI mirrorless system camera. We are still not sure it’s coming but early hints talk about the possibility of a DJI Full Frame L-mount camera. Not sure if it will be cine oriented or more like a hybrid model.

One thing is sure, if they do it they will make it a KILLER camera!

First totally FAKE DJI mirrorless Full Frame image goes viral on the web

Everyone is talking about this picture on the Chinese Weibo accounts. But unfortunately, it’s not a real DJI full-frame camera, but a photoshopped Leica M9 Titanium Edition with Hasselblad elements :) Ok, now that we know it’s a fake, let me say that this modified version still looks beautiful! I would like to see this kind of design on a non-Leica one day!

One a more serious note: Some Chinese photography accounts do believe that DJI will not launch a FF camera this month. So we might have to wait a lot longer before we see such a model.
