 The Next Evolution of Aerial Cameras   Meet the ZENMUSE X5, the world's first mirrorless, compact Micro Four Thirds camera made specifically for aerial photography and cinematography. Designed to work with the DJI Inspire 1 ready-to-fly platform, the ZENMUSE X5 packs a powerful sensor that's capable of recording 4K videos at up to 30 fps and capturing still images at 16MP. Equipped with the standard MFT interchangeable lens mount and allowing full wireless remote control over focus, aperture, and more, the ZENMUSE X5 lets you shoot the way you want. Welcome to the future of aerial imaging.   Increased Dynamic Range   With 12.8 stops of dynamic range, shadows and highlights in everything you capture is brought out in perfect clarity.   Revolutionary Sensor   Built inside the ZENMUSE X5 is a powerful Micro Four Thirds sensor that's absolutely revolutionary for an aerial camera. With a sensor eight times the size of that in the previous x3 camera included with the Inspire 1, this new MFT sensor enables high quality, high sensitivity image recording at an ISO range of 100-25600. With a sophisticated balance of high-resolving power, accurate gradation, and low noise, you are realizing your artistic and creative vision as never before.   Built for the Sky   To create the first fully integrated, professional aerial imaging system, the ZENMUSE X5 was engineered and designed from the very beginning to be perfectly compatible with the Inspire 1, DJI's most advanced quadcopter. With 360 degree camera movement and dual controller support, the Inspire 1 is the favorite ready-to-fly aerial platform for enthusiasts and professionals worldwide. Now, with a simple installation procedure, you can upgrade the camera on your Inspire 1 to the ZENMUSE X5, vastly increasing its imaging capabilities while retaining its ease of use and reliability.   Complete Control   With the ZENMUSE X5, you have an unprecedented level of control right at your fingertips. In the intuitive auto-focus mode, you can tell the camera to focus on a specific area by simply tapping on the screen of your mobile device, as easy as using the camera on a smartphone. Manual/Auto focus, shutter, white balance and aperture control are also available, giving you unlimited freedom to create any kind of shot you want. With the ZENMUSE X5, you are in complete control.   Professional Aerial Video   Despite its compact size, the ZENMUSE X5 is a powerful video camera that's capable of recording 4K (3840 x 2160) at up to 30 fps, and 1080P HD (1920 x 1080) at up to 60 fps in MP4/MOV format. The ZENMUSE X5 enables you to record professional-level footage with stunning clarity and detail. A higher speed signal readout suppresses the rolling shutter effect when recording, resulting in beautiful footage even when flying at high speeds. The ZENMUSE X5 also comes equipped with convenient features such as Zebra Pattern, making it a camera that's truly fit for any job.   Capture Memories   With a MFT sensor that's capable of capturing photos at 16MP, the ZENMUSE X5 produces print-ready images that look as good in a frame as they do on your screen. The extra pixels represent a 25% increase over the original Inspire 1 camera. With the shutter speed increased to as quick as 1/8000 of a second, and the power of the new imaging processor enabling burst capture of up to 7 full size photos per second, the ZENMUSE X5 helps you relish every memorable moment.   Unparalleled Stabilization   Thanks to DJI's unparalleled expertise in stabilization systems, the ZENMUSE X5 is equipped with a reliable 3-axis gimbal that automatically stabilize your camera in flight. The gimbal constantly communicates with the aircraft, and quickly compensates for every minor movement. As a result, the ZENMUSE X5 produces silky smooth footage and sharp photos even with long exposure no matter how you fly.   Interchangeable Lens Mount   As the world's first Micro Four Thirds camera made specifically for aerial photography and videography, the ZENMUSE X5 gives you the freedom to choose your lens. By utilizing the standard MFT mount, one of the most popular lens systems in the camera industry, the ZENMUSE X5 is well positioned to benefit from new products and innovations from major lens manufacturers.   DJI Go App   Control the ZENMUSE X5 remotely with the same DJI GO app that is used with the Inspire 1. With a live HD view powered by DJI Lightbridge, you see exactly what the camera is capturing and can adjust every setting on the fly.  &#149; One-tap auto focus, or precise manual focus pulling  &#149; Full 360 degree camera control  &#149; Manual settings including aperture, white balance, shutter speed, and more  &#149; Ability to upload or livestream your flights to YouTube  &#149; All at a range of over 1 mile   Compact and Durable   The pinnacle of DJI's industrial engineering capabilities, the ZENMUSE X5 is precisely manufactured with high grade magnesium alloys, enabling it to withstand heavy field use. Compact and lightweight to enable easy transportation and long flight times, the ZENMUSE X5 is ready to come with you on every shoot.   Precise Focus Control   As you fly, focus can be remotely adjusted using the GO app or the DJI Focus system. Simply plug this new follow focus into the remote to have an accurate, familiar physical focus ring that controls the way your shots look.

Easy to focus beautiful on the Osmo Pro up your ground game easily with perfect smooth video great bitrate

Excellent

Great quality
Not for hobby or beginners, right for professionals
DJI always improving

Great camera

The images are excellent. I agree but if you need audio this product is not for you. 
The cooling fan makes such noise that audio is unusable. DJI recommends directional mics (extra cost) and so on. But I haven't made that work either. Please check the forums and other info before buying.

Excellent if you don't need audio

The zenmuse x5 transforms your inspire into a production filming machine.  The quality of videos and photos is top notch and adding the ability to change lenses gives you more flexibility to let your creativity run free!

Production quality video for your DJI Inspire

This is a great camera it works amazing with my inspire 1 and I’m extremely happy with the quality of the photos and video.

Amazing camera

We purchased the X5 as an upgrade to the original X3 which was not all that great to begin with. The quality of the X5 is a big improvement over the X3. The images are crisper and clearer but still lack super sharp detail when zooming in. Considering the platform and the overall cost this was a worth while investment for us until we can justify making the jump to a haxa or octo copter with a full frame camera.

X3 Upgrade

I use this on an Osmo Handle.  The learning curve is high but with practice and patience you can deliver stunning buttery smooth video.    Great product.   A little more temperamental than the X3 (you have to worry about balancing the gimbal, etc) but better image quality and much more control of the camera once you come up the learning curve, use the right lenses and filters, etc.
