While gathering the details of the DJI Avata 360, we have found something really very interesting. According to the latest report, DJI is still working on an Avata 3, but it is not normal. It’s an evolution of the existing DJI Avata 360 camera, which features an Avata 3 panoramic-style gimbal camera just like the 360, but it is going to be called the Avata 3.
Why we have picked this news so early: we generally wait for multiple confirmations from different lines of sources, but the news is coming from…
Respected drone creator Mauro Tandoi (@MauroTandoi) on X (formerly Twitter). He shared a screenshot of a WeChat-style message from a trusted Chinese source who claims to have personally flown the prototype.
Here’s the exact translated leak:
“Next year Avata 3 will be released. The latest information I received is that the Avata 3 gimbal is panoramic, similar to the viewing angle of DJI’s 360 panoramic camera. I also test-flew it once, and it doesn’t feel as good to fly as the Avata 2 😭”
Mauro added his own insight:
“Avata 2 is complementary to Avata 360….”
This single post (published March 20, 2026) has immediately sparked massive discussion among US FPV pilots. With the Avata 360 launching in China on March 26, 2026 and global rollout in early April, the timing couldn’t be more perfect for this rumor.
Should You Wait or Buy Avata 360?
Absolutely, we have added this question since it can be raised in your mind, as we all know the March 26 official announcement date of the Avata 360. After that, it will become available in mainland China, and most probably in the fourth week of April, it will also become available in the United States of America.
If you are living in the United States of America and waiting for the Avata 360, then this is the best time to wait for it and pre-order it as soon as it becomes available in the United States of America, and there is no need to wait for the Avata 3 drone for now, since it is about to arrive sometime in late 2027. It will not be FCC-approved, since DJI is fighting with the FCC on this matter, and the ban has continued from December 22, 2025, so they are not able to register any new drone in the FCC. So the Avata 3, even if announced, due to the lack of FCC approval, will not be allowed to be sold in the United States of America.
Bottom line: The leak strongly suggests Avata 3 = upgraded Avata 360 successor — same FPV DNA, but with a next-level panoramic (dual-camera) gimbal. It’s not replacing the Avata 360; it’s the 2027 refresh.
USA Availability, Pricing & FAA Outlook for Avata 3
It is still too early to comment on the availability, announcement dates, or any specific specifications related to the DJI Avata 3 or the Avata 360 successor for now. In general, big companies like DJI always have several prototypes of multiple drones in testing, and it is quite obvious that they have started development on the successor to the Avata 360. However, please note that the Avata 360 is very new. The Avata 3 is expected to feature dual-mode video recording capability — full 360° as well as normal FPV-style video — and the best part is that it is coming under budget, FCC approved, and will be available in the United States of America.
At the end of the day, we highly recommend covering this story. We see authenticity in it due to the credible source involved. We are still very much looking forward to the Avata 3 arrival next year. We will cover more details as soon as we get any new information on this.

DJI has officially confirmed that the DJI Avata 360 will launch on March 26, 2026, at 12 PM GMT. The new community leak suggests that the global shipping of the drone will be delayed beyond the announcement. Earlier, it was said that shipping will start in the first week of April, and at the same time, it will also be available in the United States of America. But recently, according to an Italian user and creator, who is also a DJI expert — according to Mauro Tandoi (@MauroTandoi on X), who shared a clear screenshot from the upcoming drone’s FPV interface (credit: YouTube channel losvideosdefelix), sales outside China may be postponed until after the third week of April — possibly starting around April 24, 2026.
DJI has officially confirmed the DJI Avata 360 launch date: March 26, 2026, at 12:00 PM GMT (8:00 AM EDT / 5:30 PM IST). US drone pilots are excited, but a new community leak suggests global shipping to the USA will be delayed slightly beyond the announcement.
Here’s exactly what US buyers need to know right now.
DJI Avata 360 Launch vs. USA Shipping Date – The Breakdown
Official Global Launch Event: March 26, 2026 (confirmed by DJI on Instagram, Facebook, and their website)
China Sales Start: Expected immediately after the live stream (typical DJI pattern)
USA & Global Shipping: Early-to-mid April 2026 is still the most common rumor, but the latest X leak points to a possible slip to late April (around April 24).
One thing that I would like to add is that the DJI Avata 360 drone is already approved, and you don’t have to worry at all. If you are receiving some delayed news about the shipment of the drone to global regions, specifically related to the United States of America, then there is no need to worry, since it is FCC-approved. It will appear sooner or later in the market, and most probably it’s not too late — it will appear at the end of April 2026. You can pre-order online so you will be prioritised on a first-come, first-served basis.
Once again, let’s have a look at the pricing of the upcoming drone.
Exact prices and bundles will be revealed during the March 26 live event. Watch DJI’s YouTube channel or Instagram for the stream.
Stay tuned for more updates

Sony A6900 camera rumours are heating up, and we have collected all the latest updates related to the upcoming camera, including specific expected pricing and features. I will dive into what we have related to the camera, the Sony A6900, which is actually a tentative name. Although Sony seems to be moving chronologically after the Sony A6600, it has decided to keep the name Sony A6700. A lot of people think that Sony’s A6400 successor would be called the Sony A6800, and that’s why they are skipping up the naming pattern and taking it to A6900 or A7000. So, for now, it all depends on Sony, which name they would like to use for their next camera. For now, it would be best to consider either the A6900 or the Sony A7000.
According to detailed specs shared by SonyAlphaRumors on March 17, 2026, test samples of this new-generation APS-C body are slated to arrive after April 2026 (Sony’s FY2026). While still unverified and labelled “WILD” by the site itself, the rumoured features align with Sony’s recent trickle-down of full-frame tech. They could position the α6900 as a direct competitor to high-resolution APS-C offerings from Fujifilm and Canon’s upcoming EOS R7 Mark II.
Here’s everything we know so far—and why American photographers (wildlife shooters, sports enthusiasts, and hybrid creators alike) should pay attention.
Rumored Sony α6900 Key Specsification
Sensor: Brand-new 33-megapixel Chip-on-Wafer (CoW) stacked APS-C sensor with 15+ stops of dynamic range. Changes from A6700’s 26MP BSI sensor. We have the stacking promises faster readout, reduced rolling shutter, blackout-free shooting, and significantly better high-ISO performance and dynamic range.
Shutter & Speed: Shares the same silent, compact drive mechanism as the full-frame α1. Only electronic front-curtain and full electronic shutter modes supported, with a new max speed of 1/16,000 sec.
Buffer Note: Relatively low buffer capacity for high-speed bursts (a common trade-off in compact bodies).
Stabilization: Up to 8.5 stops of in-body image stabilization (IBIS)—a notable improvement over the A6700.
Build & Controls: Slightly thicker body than the A6700 for improved grip; two extra customizable buttons (C1 and C3).
Storage: Single card slot supporting CFexpress Type A cards only (no SD fallback). Cards have become far more affordable in recent years, making this less of a barrier for most U.S. buyers.
Video: Limited to FHD and 4K (no 6K or 8K). Highlights include 7K oversampled 4K60p (no crop) and 1.3x-crop oversampled 4K120p.
The most important thing in there is a 33 megapixel tag sea wash sensor. This specification reminds me of the Sony Alpha A1 mirrorless camera. The Mini Alpha A is on the way, and if these are true.
Why Sony A6900 These Specs Make Sense in 2026
The most important thing in there is a 33 megapixel stacked CMOS sensor. Technically, it is going to directly compete against the Fujifilm 40 megapixel stacked CMOS sensor-based bodies. Also, the Canon R7 Mark II camera announcement is expected before June 2026, and that would also be a very strong contender. At the time of writing this article, we do have some confirmation about the resolution of the Canon R7 Mark II camera, but we are still unconfirmed about the type of sensor tech inside it. Whether it’s a plain BSI CMOS sensor or a stacked CMOS sensor, we don’t know at this moment.
We are not putting too much details that how the camera will going to perform when it will have a 33MP start since it’s all tumour right now and discussing bit more and more will be kind of worthless thing so before that we have to wait for the confirmation from Multiplex sources and once we get more confirmation, we will be digging more and more over this news. But now this is the set of course-specific. He told me to have a yes, we are very much excited about it now, let’s discuss about the price and the possible date of arrival of the Soni AC6900 camera
Expected Price
No official pricing has been leaked yet. What we expect for now is MSRP in the $1,700–$2,000 range
Sony A6900 Arrival Date APS-C Flagship Update Schedule
Here’s how the rumoured α6900 fits into Sony’s recent APS-C flagship timeline:
Model
Announcement Date
Release Date
Sensor Resolution
Years Between Models
Next Expected Update
Sony α6600
August 2019
November 2019
24MP (BSI)
—
α6700 (2023)
Sony α6700
July 2023

Sony α6900 (Rumored)
Late 2026 (projected)
2027 (projected)
33MP CoW Stacked
~3–4 years
Next-generation (2030+)
Where the α6900 arrival falls: A formal announcement could land late 2026 or early 2027 – roughly the same 3 – 4 year cycle Sony used between the A6600 and A6700. This gives current A6700 owners a clear upgrade window while keeping the lineup fresh.
Final Thoughts: Should You Get Excited?
If even half these specs are accurate, the Sony α6900 could be the most compelling APS-C camera Sony has ever made – delivering flagship-level speed, resolution, and stabilisation in a compact, affordable package tailored for U.S. enthusiasts who want performance without a full-frame camera requirement

So finally, we have clear information on what the two different models of the DJI Avata 360 drone are coming, and what the major differences between these drones are in terms of new connectivity features. We are going to explain this in our article, but before that, keep in mind that the DJI Avata 360 announcement is very near, on March 26, 2026 (8 PM Beijing Time / 12 PM GMT / 8 AM EDT). It will launch in China, and next month, in the first week of April, the global rollout will occur.
For now, we have screenshots of two pre-approved DJI Avata 360 drones by Chinese regulatory authorities, and according to them, one is the traditional operative drone, which is obviously meant for the global rollout. The other features enhanced connectivity specifically for the Chinese market, and neither of these drones is under 250 g.
Why DJI Made a China-Only 4G Version of the Avata 360
We all know that the DJI Avata 360 does have limited battery life, which can max out at about 20 minutes of flight time. So, enabling 4G connectivity in a drone that only has around 20 minutes of flight time looks quite unreasonable, since why would the manufacturer include 4G network connectivity for a longer, stronger connection when the drone may not have enough power to return? Other than that, 4G transmission will also consume battery power while in use.
The most important part here is to understand that DJI wants to enhance the overall user experience, and by adding additional 4G connectivity, they improve user experience with more precise control during flight while transmitting higher-quality 4K video on the move without any breaks or lag. Despite fast movements or rotations, this specific model has been designed for China ONLY
Mainland China’s strict urban flying regulations and dense signal environments make built-in cellular redundancy extremely valuable. The integrated 4G LTE module (not an external dongle) automatically switches to “增强图传” (Enhanced Video Transmission) when OcuSync drops — exactly as described in official Chinese filings.
This mirrors DJI’s approach on select Mavic and Mini Enterprise models, but it’s now built directly into a consumer FPV cinewhoop for the first time. Outside China, the module is deliberately disabled for regulatory and licensing reasons — identical to the Mavic 4 Pro cellular dongle behaviour at launch.
Italian testers who received early DVN3XT samples confirm: the 4G icon appears in the DJI app, but activation fails with a “not enabled for my region” error. Firmware workarounds are quickly patched.
DJI Avata 360 Specs: What Both Versions Share
Both the standard and China-only models deliver identical core performance:
Dual 1/1.1-inch CMOS sensors for true 8K 360° spherical video
Tiltable camera module (seamless switch between full 360° and classic forward FPV view)
User-replaceable lenses
Latest OcuSync 4 transmission (up to 20 km in ideal conditions)
Full omnidirectional obstacle avoidance with LiDAR
~400 g takeoff weight (requires FAA registration + Remote ID in the US)
Full compatibility with DJI Goggles N3 / Goggles 3 and RC Motion 3
Side-by-Side Comparison: DVN3NT vs DVN3XT
Feature
DVN3NT (Standard / Global Version)
DVN3XT (Enhanced Transmission / China-Only)
Transmission
Pure OcuSync 4
Hybrid OcuSync 4 + built-in 4G LTE module
4G Functionality
None
Automatic backup when OcuSync weakens (China servers only)
Max Takeoff Weight
0.468 kg (468 g)
0.475 kg (475 g) — +7 g from 4G hardware
FCC Approval
Yes (ID: SS3-DVN3NT, approved Nov 19, 2025)
No — never filed
Availability
US, Europe, India, worldwide
China only (hardware- and server-locked)
Expected US Price
~$499 (drone-only) / ~$999 (Fly More Combo)
Unavailable outside China
Key fact for US pilots: You will only receive the DVN3NT model. The DVN3XT never received FCC certification and is blocked by DJI’s December 22, 2025 Covered List addition.
Will the 4G Version Ever Work in the United States?
Short answer: No.
No FCC ID exists for the DVN3XT.
DJI’s US import rules (Covered List) prevent new cellular drone approvals.
Even if imported from China, it requires Chinese DJI servers and stays permanently locked.
US buyers get the pure DVN3NT with class-leading OcuSync 4 — more than enough for 99% of FPV and cinematic flying.
Official Launch Event: March 26, 2026 (live stream on DJI channels)
Pre-orders: Open immediately after the stream on DJI.com and Amazon.com and authorized US retailers
Shipping: Early-to-mid April 2026 (most reports point to April 9 global availability)
Expected US Pricing (based on European leaks and US retailer pages):
Drone-only: ~$499
Fly More Combo (drone + extra batteries + case): ~$999
Full Goggles N3 Combo: ~$1,199–$1,299
Note: The Avata 360 is one of the last new DJI models to clear US regulations before stricter rules took effect — it remains fully legal to buy and fly in America.
Should US Drone Pilots Care About the 4G Version?
Honestly? Not at all. The standard DVN3NT already offers an outstanding range and reliability.
If it’s only limited to China, then for sure we do not have that much use of that drone in the United States of America. So, we have to put our focus on the upcoming DJI Avata 360 Standard Edition, which obviously has a lot more to offer compared to competitors like Antigravity A1, including a 360° view as well as a normal FPV mode in a budget range.
So technically, despite the absence of 4G, the DJI Avata 360 still has a lot to offer in the United States of America. Although if the ban were not there, for sure we would enjoy the 4G version of the drone in the United States of America too.
We cross-verified every detail using official DJI teasers, CAAC/UOM Chinese registry data, news reports, FCC filings, and reports from Italian pre-release testers. Everything checks out 100%. Here’s the definitive US-focused guide.

The Panasonic Lumix TZ300 ( ZS300 in some regions) compact camera is about to arrive, but before its arrival, the Z300 is already generating significant buzz following recent leaks from user communities, including Reddit discussions
The Z300 leaked image confirmed to us the core specifications of the camera and also mentions the official announcement, which is scheduled for March 24, 2026, with pre-orders likely starting the same day in the United States. Availability / Shipping of Z300 is expected in the 3rd-4th week in April 2026. No official pricing has been confirmed yet in the leaks, but we do believe the price will remain somewhat similar to the Z200, since most of the core specs of the camera match with the predecessor, including the sensor and zoom lens, the body design, although modified. Though it may position itself as a premium travel zoom compact, potentially in the mid-to-high range based on its upgrades over the older TZ200 (ZS200) model from 2018.
Panasonic LUMIX TZ300 Full Specifications (Leaked 2026)
Here are the confirmed Panasonic TZ300 specs straight from the leaked display cards:
Design: All-new clean black finish (no red grip line — sleeker than TZ200D)
Body: Pocketable travel size with USB-C port and refined top controls
Key Claim: “Perfect Travel Companion”
These specs make the Panasonic TZ300 one of the most versatile compact cameras for US travelers, vloggers, and hobbyists in 2026.
Panasonic TZ300 Release Date & US Launch Details
Official Announcement Date: March 24, 2026 at 2:00 PM UTC (10:00 AM EDT / 7:00 AM PDT)
Embargo Lift: Same time — full specs, sample photos, and pricing drop simultaneously
So, US pre-orders and shipping will begin just 2 to 4 weeks after the official announcement of the camera, which is about to happen on March 24, 2026, as we have already said, around mid-April.
Canon G7X Mark III and SX740HS True Competitor
Panasonic has used this specific timing for announcing its updated, high-quality, professional-level Z300 camera with a large 1-inch sensor and 15x optical zoom, specifically to match the demand of consumers who are looking for cameras like the Canon G7 X Mark III or the Canon SX740 HS for a pocket zooming experience.
Technically, if you look at the Z300 camera, its specifications cover all the requirements of a large compact camera as well as a pocket zoom, which means a perfect combination of the Canon G7 X Mark III and the Canon SX740 HS in one camera. No one saves.

New images of the Insta360 Luna white edition have surfaced, which makes sense given the DJI Pocket 4 camera announcement is near. We are also expecting the Insta360 Luna camera announcement very soon. The leak comes directly from the largest store in China, where a store manager showcased the Luna pocket camera and shared an image of the camera. More importantly, this was shared by one of the most trusted leakers, Igor Bogdanov, on March 16, 2026.
They confirm that a new colour option is also being added to the Insta360 Luna: white, and that the dual-camera setup will challenge DJI’s dominance in the standard edition in 2026. They are also planning to announce a DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera later in the middle of this year.
The Insta360 Luna camera features a dual-lens setup, which reaches up to 3X optical zoom, as well as AI image stabilisation, delivering professional-grade video even prior to its official announcement. We have already shared the teaser video of the Insta360 Luna camera.
Insta360 and DJI are very close competitors, Luna looks like a closer competitor to the DJI Pocket 4 PRO
New Insta360 Luna White Images: What the Shenzhen Store Leak Reveals
The leaked photos show the white Insta360 Luna in action inside the flagship Shenzhen store. One image captures him holding the Luna up to his face while flashing a peace sign, another close-up shows the side profile with the rotating touchscreen, record button, and a small white wireless mic accessory clipped to his shirt.
So these images do show that Insta 360 Luna is coming in different colour variants as well as features do a lens camera set-up inside, Insta360 Luna flexing itself in leaks before the official announcement.
One thing is very clear: the presence of the device in the store itself confirms that major retail stores in China already have a supply/stock of the Insta360 Luna camera. Specifically, right now the leaks are originating from China, so we can expect its announcement in mainland China first, followed by a global (including the United States of America) announcement later in the week.
These images prove the Insta360 Luna will be available in multiple colour variants, moving beyond basic black designs of pocket series cameras.
Insta360 Luna Design Highlights: Modular Gimbal Meets Dual-Lens Innovation
As we first reported after the official unveiling, the Insta360 Luna is no ordinary pocket camera. CEO Liu Jingkang confirmed at the company’s annual meeting that this is a true handheld gimbal competitor to the upcoming DJI Osmo Pocket 4. Key design elements include:
Modular “Twist” system – Interchangeable camera modules and lenses for maximum flexibility (use it standalone or attached to the gimbal).
Dual-lens setup – Wide-angle primary lens plus a 70mm telephoto for true 3x optical zoom and beautiful bokeh effects.
Rotating touchscreen – Swipe gestures, live AI tracking, manual zoom, and quick settings access.
Advanced controls – Dedicated record button, thumb joystick for gimbal panning, power/mode switch, and LED status indicators.
The new white variant perfectly matches the premium build quality teased in earlier prototypes. Multiple color options (now confirmed in-store) will let creators personalize their gear – ideal for influencers and travel vloggers.
Insta360 Luna Key Features & Specs: Why It’s More Exciting Than DJI Avata 360 Hype
At TheNewCamera.com, we were the first website to publish images of the device, and one of the best things is that it can detach into a smaller camera module that can be used more conveniently by solo filmmakers.
Before I move on, let me clarify that even Insta360 CEO Liu is very excited for the Luna. Back in January, when a dual-camera-based prototype image was making rounds on the web as an Insta360 Pocket 4 camera, Insta360 CEO Liu came forward from his Weibo account and said that it’s not from DJI.
From this very specific incident, you can understand how important this announcement is even for the Insta360 company itself.
Insta360 Luna Launch Timeline: March – April 2026
Everything points to a first-half 2026 release, with strong rumors pointing to March or April. The Shenzhen store sighting, combined with previous FCC filings and teaser videos, suggests Insta360 wants to steal the spotlight right after (or alongside) DJI’s Avata 360 and Pocket 4 announcements.
We’ll continue tracking every update right here. Expect pricing details, full specs, and pre-order information very soon – especially now that the white Luna is already appearing in physical stores.
Stay tuned at theNewCamera.com for the most accurate and timely Insta360 Luna coverage in 2026.

DJI Avata 360 is about to become official, and the price is very clear to us thanks to leaks from European retailers. The authentic price sheet just before the announcement has been made available to us by one of the most trusted and authentic sources, Jasper Ellens. Also, we may have a $10 to $15 price difference in the final pricing due to changes in currency values, since they do not always remain the same. And we calculated the price of the Avata 360 kit from the European retailer price list.
Here we are comparing the price of the DJI Avata 360 with the Insta360 Antigravity A1 drone. Now, just after the official announcement of the Antigravity A1, it is not as popular among users as it was hyped up before the announcement. There may be two reasons behind that. The first and foremost is the price, which we are going to compare against the Avata 360, and you will have a clear idea of the difference you have to pay for choosing the Antigravity A1.
Other than that, the biggest factor is the limitation of 360-degree view capture. Yes, it may sound exciting for some users that they are able to capture a full 360-degree view, but some users still prefer to have FPV-style shooting, or they simply want to use the normal front camera. In that case, the 360 video workflow can become a problem for them, since they have to process it, capture the frame, recompose it, and handle the entire editing process.
Why the 360° Drone Battle Matters in 2026
Traditional FPV drones like the DJI Avata 2 excel in agile flight, but 360° models add full-sphere capture for VR. The best part is the new Avata 360 can do both with its rotating gimbal; it can shoot traditional as well as 360 style shooting. Technically, you get true creative freedom with Avata 360. The Antigravity A1 (launched late 2025) pioneered the category with its ultra-light 249g design and Insta360 integration. Now, DJI enters with ecosystem advantages, replaceable lenses, and aggressive pricing.
Yes, we will be doing specification comparison, as well as price comparison, altogether
Prices are based on current official Antigravity bundles (USD) and leaked European Avata 360 figures converted at ~1 EUR ≈ 1.15 USD (mid-March 2026 rates). US pricing for Avata 360 may adjust slightly at launch, but is expected to align closely or be even more competitive.
Bottom line on pricing: Even DJI’s top Premium Combo (~$1,333) costs less than Antigravity’s entry-level Standard Bundle ($1,599). Accessories tell the same story – DJI batteries at ~$91 vs. higher Antigravity extras, and prop sets at just $10.

Who Should Buy Which in the US?
Choose DJI Avata 360 if budget, ecosystem compatibility, or value is your priority. At roughly half the cost for similar bundles, it’s a game-changer for hobbyists, YouTubers, and pros upgrading without breaking the bank.
Choose Antigravity A1 if you need the lightest 360 drone, unique Insta360 editing tools, or don’t mind paying extra for innovation. It’s positioned as luxury, but recent discounts (sometimes 15% off) narrow the gap slightly.
With the DJI Avata 360 launch just days away (March 26, 2026), expect pre-order buzz and potential little bit US pricing tweaks. The price difference makes DJI the clear value leader in the 2026 360° drone race.
