If you are a beginner looking for the best entry-level drones in 2025 and live in the United States of America, then this is the best time to act, as the deadline set by the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is just 11 days away, on December 23, 2025. The DJI products will get banned in the United States of America, so if you already having/own a DJI product, then there is no issue, but yes, new product announcements/registrations at the FCC may get halted after this date.

Canon R3 is always a professional sports and wildlife photographer’s favourite camera and considered to have ergonomics very similar to the Canon 1D-series DSLR, but as of now we have some sort of information coming from rumour mills that the Canon R3 Mark II camera will arrive before the 2026 Milan Olympics. In this article, we are going to discuss the possible set of core specifications, the arrival time of the R3 Mark II camera, so let’s dive in details.
Why Now? The Case for an EOS R3 Mark II
The Canon R3 was announced back in September 2021, one of the cameras that introduced Eye/Iris Control AF and that has impressed everyone as a flagship camera. The price is way too high, costing around $5999, specifically built for wildlife, sports, events, and photojournalism.
Rumours have started recently related to Canon R3 mark II camera arrival, since Canon does have a history of Olympic-tied flagship announcements. So for this time, we are expecting Canon to update its oldest flagship sports camera, the Canon R3.
Although not only Canon, Nikon was also stuck to Olympic-related announcements in post-DSLR times. Right now in the mirrorless world, we have to look at the dates and the patterns of these camera makers very carefully. They may change up everything they have done in the past, but for now, Phoblographer and Canon Rumours do believe that we are going to have Olympics-related announcements soon, or before February 2026.+
Rumoured Specs: What Could the R3 Mark II Bring to the Table?
Canon R3 Mark II camera specification based on the latest set of rumours and leaks we have
Sensor and Resolution
Global Shutter Tease?: Is Canon testing out Global shutter sensors for Canon R3 Mark II? Although the global shutter sensor isn’t a new thing for Canon. But yes, source has cancelled out the possibilities of an High Res Stacked CMOS sensor inside the Canon R3 Mark II camera, the sensor is said to be Inspired by Sony’s A9 III, some speculate a global shutter variant to eliminate rolling shutter distortion in action shots, boosting high-ISO performance (clean files above 12,800 ISO, per user feedback on the original R3).
DIGIC X Mark II: DIGIC X was first announced on January 6, 2020. As of December 11, 2025, it is approximately 5 years and 11 months old (or nearly 6 years). It debuted in the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III, Canon’s flagship professional DSLR at the time. It’s really a shame for Canon to still use the same 6 year old procesor in all their Flagship camera without any update or upgrade. In the meantime, they have added an AI chip, named Digic accelerator to handle AI based task. But, the image processor remains the same; we do believe the Canon R3 Mark II will bring out a new image processor in the Canon lineup.
Autofocus and Viewfinder
Eye-Control AF 2.0: Building on the original’s magic, with deeper AI for subject detection in chaotic scenes—sports, birds-in-flight, you name it.
EVF Upgrade: A 5.76M-dot OLED like the R1, but tuned for the gripped form factor.
Video Capabilities
Leaks are quiet here, but expect 6K/120p raw internals, with pro codecs for filmmakers doubling as stills shooters.
Release Date and Pricing: When Can We Get Our Hands on It?
Timeline: February 2026 announcement for Milan Olympics coverage, with shipping by spring. Miss this window? It might evaporate, per skeptics. Canon Rumors pegs Q1 alongside lenses, aligning with Phoblographer’s intel.
Pricing: Expect a bump to $6,500–$7,000 body-only, positioning it between the R5 II ($3,899) and R1. Bundles with RF 400mm f/2.8 or similar could sweeten Olympic deals.
These are the initial updates related to the Canon R3 Mark II camera. As we get any new information related to the same, we will be updating it here at TheNewCamera.com. Stay tuned for more updates.
Let’s talk about the Nikon Z90 camera. According to Ordinary Filmmaker trusted sources, the camera is in work, and the prototypes are approved for the production line, ready to replace the old-school Nikon D500 camera. The specification is not new, similar to what we have shared with you a while ago: the Nikon Z90 will carry a 33MP APS-C/DX-format hybrid CMOS autofocus sensor and advanced AI autofocus algorithms, very similar to what we have seen in the Nikon FX-format full-frame cameras
Latest Information about Nikon Z90?
Simon kicks off his video by saying: “Our trusted source has come forward once again to tell us that the Nikon Z90, a direct replacement for the Nikon D500, is now in the works and coming to the market.”
No exact date from Simon – he notes Nikon’s super secretive ( “Nikon is very quiet. Too quiet.” ) and focused on other stuff like cinema gear. But based on his chat, it’s close enough to get excited about. More on timing below.
Nikon Z90 Specs: The Key Details Simon Shared
Simon keeps it real and rumour-free from wild guesses. Here’s what he says about the Z90, broken down easily:
Sensor Size: It’s a DX (APS-C) camera with 32-33 megapixels. So, in terms of sensor resolution, information remains the same as we also have shared previously in our post
Speed: Up to 15 frames per second (fps). Most probably, he is talking about the MAX mechanical shutter speed.
Who It’s For: obviously photographers looking for a mini Z9 camera, an Multipurpose camera made for DX pro., Wildlife photographers who want “more reach” (the crop sensor makes lenses feel longer, like turning a 400mm into 600mm) but don’t need top low-light skills or the pricey Nikon Z9. If you’re pro-level and chasing magazine covers in dim light, stick with Z9. But for sunny safaris? Z90 shines.
Nikon Z90 Release Timeline
According to Simon from Ordinary Filmmaker in his video, the Nikon Z90 release timeline remains uncertain and delayed, with no imminent announcement expected before 2026. He reports from a trusted source that the camera “is now in the works and coming to the market,” but stresses Nikon’s extreme secrecy and heavy focus on the ZR Cinema line, including four new cine lenses within the next six months. Simon explicitly states that “I wouldn’t expect any other new Nikon announcements in the short term that don’t fall under the ZR Cinema line,” and with the February 2026 Olympics approaching too quickly for a Z9 Mark II refresh (as per rumors), stills cameras like the Z90 appear sidelined for several months. This suggests a potential launch in mid-to-late 2026 at the earliest

Sony just flipped the script of expectation at the beginning of 2026. They have announced a massive update for the existing Sony ZV-E10 Mark II camera, which unlocks 4K video recording capability at the rate of 120 fps. It’s a new free license update.
Another significant update, which is obviously packed with the 4K 120p feature, is the Full HD 240 fps recording. This will offer up to 10× slow motion in footage from the camera, a capability not previously available with the original ZV-E10 Mark II.
Sony has made this official update. Announced today (December 10, 2025), the upgrade is set to roll out in mid-to-late December, making it a perfect holiday gift for vloggers, filmmakers, and social media pros.
Why Skip the ZV-E10 III in 2026? Sony’s Smart Strategy for Creators
The Sony ZV-E10 Mark II camera was announced in July 2024 with a 26-megapixel hybrid CMOS AF sensor and the capability to output 4K video at 60p. [As of now, the specs have undergone a massive FW update, now featuring 4 K 120p and Full HD 240p.]Sony generally makes a MODEL UPDATE, specifically in the APS-C ZV series lineup in precise 1,079 days, pointing to a Sony ZV-E10 III arrival around June/July 2027.
So if Sony goes in the scheduled update time of their ZV series camera, then the next Sony ZV-E10 Mark III is coming sometime in June/July 2027, and not in 2026.
The massive update over the ZV-E10 Mark II camera does give us a very clear hint that Sony wants to upgrade their existing ZV-E10 II camera to make it competitive as well as better than other manufacturer offerings in this specific price zone. So, for now, NO Sony ZV-E10 III looks like coming close to us, at least up to Q3 of 2026. Yes, we can expect ZV-E10 III in the later part of 2026 or the first half of 2027. This is what we are expecting in December 2025. If any new updates arrive related to the announcement or early arrival of the camera, we will be updating you first here

Geeking out? We’ve crunched the numbers. Check this quick comparison table to see how the upgrade elevates the ZV-E10 II from solid starter to slow-mo savant:

How to Get the Upgrade: Timeline, Cost, and Must-Knows
Sony’s making this painless for ZV-E10 II owners (body-only or kit—launched July 2024):
Rollout Date: Mid-to-late December 2025. The update will get a Global rollout
Pricing Scoop: Its Free (confirmed via today’s announcement— )
Install 101: Grab it from Sony’s Electronics site or apps like Imaging Edge. Enter your serial number, pay up, and boom—firmware flashes in minutes. Bundles for recent buyers (Nov 2024–Dec 2025) might snag discounts.
Not own a ZV-E10 II yet? Grab it now one now from Amazon.com – B&H Store Buy for ~$698 (body) or $798 (with 16-50mm kit). It’s the ultimate holiday flex for aspiring creators.
I think Sony has made a great move by upscaling their camera and removing the locks by asking for money. The ZV-E10 Mark II camera was always capable of capturing 4K 120 fps videos as well as Full HD 240 fps, but again, they had to protect the A6700 camera sales also, and at that time, back in 2024, the ZV-E10 Mark II core specification was more than enough for competitors.
And now, after this update, again, it has been upgraded and has become one of the best content-creator cameras at its price range. Canon and Nikon still have to think about creating a perfect competitor against it. And that’s maybe the reason that Sony found this solution of updating the firmware more efficient than announcing a Mark III camera body in the next 2 to 3 months.
Since whenever a camera maker does a massive update to a camera system, it’s a clear indication that the successor isn’t coming soon, and that’s why they want to keep the existing system updated against the market competition.

DJI RS 5 Gimbal is coming. We all know we have already spotted the FCC ID document few days ago, published on our website. Now finally, we have a leaked screenshot from an Australian retailer, and in the screen, it is very clearly visible — the name of the DJI RS 5 Gimbal alongside the RS 5 Combo, the batch number, as well as the Australian pricing of both Standard and the Combo Edition — priced at $838 AUD and $998 AUD, respectively.
So the DJI RS 5 has become a kind of a good update to look for when you are planning to buy the DJI RS 4 / RS 4 Pro Gimbal. Now, it all depends on the set of specifications the DJI RS 5 carries within it.
And since the DJI RS 5 Mini Gimbal has already reached in the hands of retailers, the official announcement is expected very soon.
Let’s unpack the set of specifications and details we already know about the DJI RS 5 Gimbal..

Breaking Down the Leak: RS 5 Pricing in AUD (and USD Equivalents)
Before we jump into any new set of information, let’s analyse the pricing of the DJI RS 5 Gimbal in USA/USD. We already have the Australian pricing of the DJI RS 5 Gimbal. We have to adjust a little bit based on the currency exchange factors and tax we have to pay, and the overall figure that we get. We have added it in the table below.

At $838 AUD (~$553 USD), the base RS 5 represents a modest 12% premium over the RS 4’s $678 AUD launch price, signaling DJI’s intent to keep the series accessible for hybrid shooters balancing cameras like the Nikon ZR, Sony AV or Canon R5 II. The Combo kit—likely bundling essentials like extra batteries, focus motors, and a RavenEye image transmitter—jumps to $998 AUD, offering better value for kit-builders. Compared to the RS 4 Pro’s $1,298 AUD entry, the RS 5 feels like a “Pro-lite” contender, potentially packing enough bells and whistles to lure users away from pricier alternatives like the Zhiyun Crane 5 or Moza AirCross 3.
Rumoured Features: What Makes the RS 5 a “Massive Upgrade”?
We have already seen the FCC ID registration of the DJI RS 5 Gimbal. DJI is actually planning to give a hardware refresh to the existing RS 4 / RS 4 Pro gimbals. Right now we do not have any information related to the RS 5 Professional Gimbal, but yes, we do have rumoured specifications related to the RS 5 that we are going to discuss below.
1. Enhanced Payload and Z-Axis Stabilisation
The Rumor: The Initial set of rumours suggests the DJI RS 5 Gimbal has been custom-tailored/designed for uninterrupted 8K workflow, and that’s why it is adding up to the weight. The RS 5 is now able to handle up to 5 KG compared to the RS 4 Pro, which was limited to 4.5 KG. This will allow handling or accommodating beefier setups like the RED Komodo 6K or Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro with full lens rigs.
Z-Axis Magic: Filmmakers on Reddit have claimed that true up-down (Z-axis) stabilisation means more stabilised and buttery smooth footage from the camera. But keep in mind it’s still a rumour and not the final core specs that we are talking about.
2. LiDAR 2.0 and AI Autofocus Overhaul
Building on the RS 4’s RavenEye system, expect deeper LiDAR integration for real-time subject tracking up to 20 meters. Paired with DJI’s O3 Pro transmission (seen in the Osmo Pocket 4), latency could drop below 50ms.
AI Smarts: Rumours swirl around on-device machine learning for predictive framing, auto-balancing heavy lenses, and even gesture controls—think waving to start recording, à la newer AirPods tech.
3. Battery and Ecosystem Synergies
A rumored 30% battery life boost – 33.29 Wh battery, up to 12 hours, that we have seen from the FCC ID document.
Tighter ties to the Lito X1 (DJI’s modular accessory teased for Q1 2026). More to be revealed soon after the official announcement.
So these are the set of limited core specifications we are expecting from the DJI RS 5 Gimbal, and now we already have the Australia and the US pricing of the gimbal, and finally we are waiting for its official announcement.

Teaser framing in the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 in action, so this is not an official teaser, but yeah, we can see the glimpse of the upcoming Pocket 4 camera, which looks slightly heavy over the head, maybe due to the dual-lens setup that we have already published and confirmed in our previous post, alongside that kind of sleeker body design compared to the Pocket 3.
First look at the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 in a leaked mall walkthrough—dual lenses side-by-side? (Credit: @Quadro_News on X)
Just a few hours after the teaser video, Igor Bogdanov also shared some of the images of the Pocket 4 camera being tested in the wild, although we have shared similar few weeks ago but these are bit more clear, and again you can see the big bulky head that obviously due to carrying a dual-camera unit inside it, and against that we have the Pocket 3, which looks slightly more normal in terms of camera size.
One of the most authentic and clear images of the Pocket 4 camera yet
The Teaser Breakdown: What We See (and What It Hides)
So let’s explore what we are able to find via the teaser. Only one thing is very much confirmed that yes, they are going to have a dual-lens setup camera, we have already seen multiple leaked images till now. Now let’s explore some fun & facts that we are able to extract from the teaser.
Key frames reveal in the teaser:
Portrait orientation: the pocket 4 seems to be in a 90° position optimised for vertical shooting, specifically for creating reels/TikTok videos.
Bulkier head design: Notice the thicker gimbal housing, likely packing enhanced motors for better low-light stability or that rumoured variable aperture. Yes, we have seen something similar over the Shenzhen store leaks,
The camera holding arm has become a bit more bulky here, and it looks stronger compared to the Pocket 3. We do hope and expect this time we are going to have a bit smoother and cleaner experience with the Pocket 4, since it is being rumoured to arrive with a 3X optical zoom camera module, which is expected somewhere around 40mm to 70mm optical zoom reach, and the other one will be wide-angle for full coverage. The Pocket 3 is already still a stellar performer, but for sure, the upcoming Pocket 4 will create a new benchmark in terms of content creation.
DJI Pocket 4 Announcement Timeline
Earlier, there were rumours that the camera would arrive sometime in the first month of 2026, but due to the recent ban happening, which is about to be implemented on December 23, some of the industry sources suggested that the Pocket 4 camera is going to arrive before December 23, most probably on December 18 ( FCC ban clock is ticking.). Not only that, DJI has registered a bunch of new products in the FCC ID to bypass the wireless registration — check here December 2025 leaks roundup,
So one thing is for sure, the DJI pocket for announcement is not too far away, and as soon as we get any new updates related to that, we are going to update it here on our website, the new camera.com

DJI Avata 360 Fly More Combo has surfaced online, although we have seen a lot of AI-based retail boxes earlier, so we have hesitated to publish this one. However, after analyzing the image in depth, we have found that this particular version of the retail box leaked image appears to be legitimate, so we have decided to publish it on our website.
Many AI-generated DJI Avata 360 packaging retail box images are circulating on the web, so don’t be confused by them; this one has the clearest look, as well as the text. The images that are being seen in the retail box look highly authentic.
The DJI Avata 2 is already highly popular. The Avata 360 will also blend out the spherical video feature that will allow users to capture everything, and recently, Insta360 announced the Antigravity A1 drone on December 4. The pre-order is also active, so it seems to be the DJI Avata 360 announcement is also very near.
The packaging of DJI’s new product, the Avata 360 panoramic drone, has been leaked and may be officially released soon. Rumored specifications include: dual 1/1.1-inch image sensors, 8K panoramic video recording, 4K at 120P, 120 million pixel panoramic image capture, approximately 25 minutes of battery life, O4 transmission, and a weight of about 375 grams. The pricing is a bit less, but close to that of the Insta360, in direct competition.
The image surfaced from the Asian region, it’s kind of a white-gray box design as usual. DJI does have most of its products in the very same design language. It’s a high-end bundle of the DJI Avata 360, which also has branding over it. Very clearly can be seen very clearly on the top of the box. The packaging emphasizes the Fly More Combo variant, explicitly noting “Three Batteries” for extended sessions — ideal for creators chasing dynamic aerial shots without constant recharges. Subtle multilingual labeling (including Traditional Chinese) hints at a global rollout, with phrases like “Fly More Combo (Three Batteries)” underscoring the value-packed kit.
What’s Inside the Box?
From the visible details on the box and corroborated leaks, the Avata 360 Fly More Combo seems to include:
DJI Avata 360 Drone: We already have a lot of details related to the Avata 360, and recently, we have also published the FCID. Certification of Avtar 360 alongside other DJI products is expected to arrive early. Specs include. Dual 1/1.3-inch sensors enable native 8K 360° video recording at up to 30fps. The advanced processing mechanism allows seamless switching between full spherical capture and traditional forward-facing FPV views, addressing a key limitation in prior Avata models.
Goggles 3: Goggle 3 FPV headset is paired in the bundle, refreshed for the Avata line, supports O4 video transmission for low-latency feeds up to 13 km. Its ergonomic design with diopter adjustment ensures comfort during extended flights.
RC Motion 3 Controller: Perfect combo, the DJI controller adds gesture-based control while using goggles, so you can have fun while recording video.
Three Intelligent Flight Batteries: A standout upgrade, each rated at 38.67 Wh (14.32V)—a 22% capacity boost over the Avata 2’s cells. Allowing longer shoots or multi-angle explorations without downtime.
Additional Accessories: Charging hub, spare propellers, and carrying case round out the essentials, all tucked into a sturdy, travel-ready box measuring roughly 12 x 10 x 6 inches based on visual scaling.
These components align with DJI’s ecosystem, ensuring compatibility with existing Avata 2 accessories like the O3/O4 Air Unit for custom builds.
Tying Into Broader Leaks and Expectations
We already know the quality of DJI OSMO 360 camera. It delivers great 360 footage. And as per the initial set of leaks, we have the upcoming Avata 360 will carry almost the same camera specification that we have already seen in the Osmo 360 camera, and if the combination exactly matches, then for sure, we will have exceptional video quality from the Avata 360 drone. Now it all depends on the pricing. Initially, we have received reports that the body only / the standard kit will going to cost us $1099 only, but the person who shared the retail box package clearly wrote ” pricing is a bit less, but close to that of the Insta360″ and as we know the Antigravity A1 price is is bit high. So if DJI is able to maintain a lower price tag for the Avata 360, then it’s a clear win-win situation for DJI.
