DJI's wireless video gets a major upgrade
The new SDR Transmission II system jumps from 1080p to 4K 60fps HDR video, with range extending from 1.8 miles to 2.5 miles. It's built for professional multi-camera productions.
Works in stadiums, forests, and moving cars
The system establishes reliable connections in open stadiums, dense mountain forests, car-to-car shots, and FPV drone work. It's designed for the toughest production environments.
Control up to 40 cameras at once
A single transceiver connects to up to eight others, each with remote control. For larger productions, it supports five transmitters and 40 receivers simultaneously for complex multi-camera shoots.
Switch camera feeds instantly
Directors can tap to switch between camera feeds without rebooting or disconnecting. Latency is as low as 35 milliseconds, enabling responsive focus pulling and gimbal control.
Remote camera control built in
Camera operators and focus pullers can remotely adjust settings and control the camera. The system supports PTP control to change capture, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO on compatible cameras.
Pricing starts at 349 euros
Single transceivers start at 349 euros or 309 pounds. A two-pack combo costs 629 euros or 559 pounds. The system is not yet available in the US due to DJI product restrictions.
The key point
DJI's new SDR Transmission II system lets professional productions send crystal-clear 4K video wirelessly across 2.5 miles with minimal delay, making complex multi-camera shoots feasible even in stadiums and forests.
