Have you already seen the new announcement for the DJI SDR? Looks pretty impressive for the price point.
Here are the specs I’ve come across:
- Range: 1.8 miles/2.87 km with 20mbs at 30ms latency.
- Video Quality: 1080P at 60FPS.
- Weight: Transmitter/receiver weight is just 145g.
- Compatibility: Compatible with and can power/control Ronin gimbals.
- Inputs/Outputs: SDI + HDMI IN/OUT.
- Streaming: Capable of using WiFi to stream to an unlimited number of local devices.
If all this checks out, at $500 it’s an insane value!
Here’s what the community is saying so far:
- Price Point: Many find the price point enticing enough to give it a try.
- Latency: Actual latency might be closer to 80ms when factoring in camera and display latency, not just the 30ms transmission time.
- SDI Capabilities: Some are excited about its SDI capabilities and lightweight design at 145g.
- Comparison to Teradek: A few users are concerned about the higher latency compared to systems like Teradek, which offers around 1ms latency.
- Range: With a range of 2-3km, it doesn’t quite match the original system’s 4-6km but could still be a good.
- Price Value: The £519.00 price tag makes it a potentially great value, especially for those needing a dedicated video transmission for FPV.
If this all holds true, the DJI SDR could be a game-changer for FPV cinelifters at an unbeatable price!
