DJI Phantom 4 Quadcopter 4K Video Camera Drone for $639
Norway
Review
DJI Phantom 4 is one of the best available drones, with a stylish design and magnesium core for strength. As DJI are one of the leading and most popular brands in the consumer drone industry, it makes sense that the 4th version of the Phantom would perform brilliantly. The Phantom 4 offers a long flight time, an excellent 3-axis gimbal for steady video and photography, and gives advanced controls and options, as well as being easy to fly for beginners. Thanks to quick release blades, it is quick and easy to install and remove the blades, so that you can get flying quickly.

Overhyped or not, I'm pretty happy with my Phantom 4.
@residentjack I watched that video and I've been chatting in the comments with the guy who made it. The footage that he was using for log was underexposed which makes it unsurprising that his shadows were noisy and lost detail. d-log (like s-log and v-log) is better to overexpose vs under.
DJI drones are a bit overhyped products. They have cheap simple remotes and batteries are expensive.
I can't imagine that DJI are that inclined to boost the bitrate at the present time since they're selling lots of drones with the current bitrate and there are no competitors coming to market recording at a higher bitrate.
No one knows, as it is mostly speculation for now. And petition is for Phantom 3, I never saw any petition making nay effect.
Also, what's your take on this video:
Theoretically speaking... if the camera on the Phantom 4 was somehow hacked, could the bit rate be brought up to 100mbps? There is a petition on change.org where someone is claiming that DJI could actually do this via a firmware update. In a P4 Group on FB, I'm being told that this is impossible and that it's a hardware limitation. What's your take on this? Here is the link to the petition: https://www.change.org/p/dji-100mbp-s-bit-rate-for-the-phantom-3-professional

@tron p3-p4 differences.... I have been waiting for over 10 years I think im sold now...
Quite positive feedback for now. Seems like good buy for beginner.
@chef That's really impressive considering the amount of distance logged and the nearly identical looking vehicle thrown in the mix. I was against upgrading to the P4 because of the marginal image quality boost but this tracking feature together with seeing collision avoidance in action during RTH maneuvers (see below), now has me reconsidering -
@filthy Think Sony RX100 IV performance with a fixed wide angle lens rather than a zoom. All of the image processing resides inside the phantom shell and the lens/sensor/gimbal only require a small increase in size & weight over the current module. The new Ambarella H2 SoCs are 14nm and only draw 2 watts, support 10 bit HDR video and image scaling on sensors up to 64 Mp. http://www.ambarella.com/news/91/74/Ambarella-Introduces-Low-Power-4K-Ultra-HD-SoCs-for-Sports-and-Flying-Cameras
