With an advanced computer vision and sensing technology, the DJI Phantom 4 Quadcopter Video Camera is a worthy follow-up to the Phantom 3. It comes with an Obstacle Sensing System using two front sensors that scour for obstructions and directs the aircraft around it without deviating from its original direction. If it can’t go around or through, the Phantom 4 stops and the controller must redirect it or activate the Return to Home function to bring it back to its take-off point.

Likewise, you need not worry about tracking moving subjects such as runners or animals thanks to its ActiveTrack function. Through three-dimensional imagery, the Phantom 4 analyses how to keep the subject on frame even if it changes direction or form. Activating the ActiveTrack is as simple as tapping onto the subject via the connected DJI GO APP on a mobile device. The camera can also be moved around the subject and a pause button stops the tracking.

Aside from the three 1-“-type sensor cameras that they unveiled, Nikon is also adding three new cameras to their Coolpix line. Boasting super-long zoom lenses, they are capable of HD or 4K UHD video capture. Also, you can take clear images from afar with the 60x, 40x, and 35x zoom of the Coolpix B700, the Coolpix B500, and the Coolpix A900.

Common Features of the Coolpix B700, the Coolpix B500, and the Coolpix A900 Digital Cameras

These cameras are also equipped with Nikon Snapbridge which provides a Bluetooth Low Energy connection between the camera and a compatible mobile device to make image sharing faster and easier. Through SnapBridge, saving up to 20 GB worth of images is also possible through the Nikon Image Space cloud storage.

Meanwhile, the Nikon SnapBridge app embeds time and location details as well as photographer and copyright information. The app also makes the mobile device act as a remote control. The Coolpix cameras also have built-in Wi-Fi and Near Field Communication

Competitors should be warned that Nikon has entered the 1"-type premium compact digital camera market by unveiling three new models: the Nikon DL18-50, the Nikon DL24-85, and the Nikon DL24-500. These three cameras compensate for every focal length while their design and interface is reminiscent of Nikon''''s 1-series mirrorless cameras.

Common Features of the Nikon DL18-50, Nikon DL24-85, and the Nikon DL24-500

All three Nikon DL cameras have a 20.8MP 1"-type BSI CMOS sensor that works with the new EXPEED 6A image processor. This combination allows a top ISO of 12800 and 4K Ultra High Definition video recording at 30p or 25p. Likewise, the three premium compacts are equipped with Dual Detect Vibration Reduction that collates data from angular velocity sensors to minimize camera shake. The lenses are also coated with fluorine to keep them moist and oil-free.

The three cameras also have 3", 2037K-dot, tilting touchscreen LCDs. They are also fused with Wi-Fi with Near Field Communication

Once again, 3D video is making waves due to its enhanced way of telling stories. Audiences feel like they are part of the action plus they get to see scenes even closer. However, there is another video format that can give 3D a run for their money: 360-degree video. With this innovation, viewers can see not just what’s in front but also what’s behind, what’s up, and what’s down.

This limitless form of video capture is set to revolutionize photography and videography because there are a variety of angles that an audience can see. As a 360-degree video plays, keyboard arrows can be used to manipulate what the viewer wants to watch. Aside from the main subject, the surrounding angles can be viewed too.

Imagine: you can drag around the video to see the competitors and the spectators at a horse race. You can navigate through footage of a roller coaster ride at better angles. The ability to explore makes it a more inclusive form of media. If 3D videos make you feel closer to the action, their
