Along with the brand new quadcopter, DJI have announced a new use for the 4K camera that sits under it by being able to attach onto the handheld gimbal. Some say it is too good of a camera to purely have on your drone, so DJI have released another use for it. Getting both impressive aerial video and photos and now great handheld ones too.
