Aerial imaging company DJI has released the details of its new Zenmuse Z3 aerial zoom camera, designed specifically for use on UAVs.
The camera has been designed to provide new capabilities for industrial applications, such as inspection and surveying, say DJI. It will offer up to seven-times optical zoom, which will give it an effective zoom range of 22 mm (0.8 in) to 77 mm (3 in).
Senior product manager Paul Pan said of the camera: “The Zenmuse Z3 pushes the possibilities of use for industrial application. Before this camera, the only way to zoom in on a subject or object was to fly closer to it. Now pilots in a search and rescue situation, or conducting surveys or inspections, can maintain distance and still zoom in for sharp, detailed images.”
