Drone photography is certainly taking off in more ways than one, but the advent of this innovative and revolutionary kind of photography necessitates the use of camera control systems that makes it easier than ever for photographers and drone operators to capture the kinds of shots and scenes that they desire. This is where the DJI Focus comes in.
This particular camera control system takes a compact, handheld form and is designed to work in conjunction with the DJI Inspire drone. The system comes with a special wheel that allows you to select the degree of stiffness, so as to optimize your control of your drone. The Focus can work with other cameras on the drone and take advantage of its full 5-km range.
At $2,000, the DJI Focus camera control system is not cheap, but this is still a small price to pay for unprecedented drone photography control.
