We have done extensive coverage of the Sony A7V, and the announcement is very near to us. We already have extensive coverage of the Sony A7V camera information in our November post, and we are continuously updating it. Before we begin to explore the latest leaks, one thing is for sure: based on our previous tracking and experience, the Sony A7V pre-orders will sell out very fast, and they will be later on a first-come, first-served basis, just like the Sony A7R 5 stock exhausted just after the launch back in 2022. And the good thing is the B&H store already added a “Notify Me” button on their page, so as soon as the camera gets official, you will be notified through your email, and hence you can pre-order the camera. So, if you’re really interested in buying the camera, you should sign up right now.
Now, let’s talk about the latest leak related to the teaser image of the Sony A7V camera.
Sony α7V Teaser Images: A Sleek Silhouette Hints at Familiar Yet Evolved Design
Not officially, but accidentally, Sony Alpha Germany has dropped the first official teaser on Instagram, showing it sideways. That’s got a lot of attention, the Photography community.
So, this is one of the clearest pics of the Sony A7 V camera. Initially, while looking at the body, the first impression says the magnesium is like construction remains the same, and even though we do have some slight changes over the front section of the body, most of the controls remain the same as the Sony A7 IV camera.
At the very same time, we have to clarify this. These are not full-resolution leaks. All these are cropped damage heavily watermarked, so it is not possible for us to completely evaluate the differences between the two, but for sure it confirms to us the December to his final date of arrival.
Announcement: December 2, 2025 (tune in live via Sony’s Alpha Universe).
Pre-Orders: Immediate post-embargo, likely same day at B&H and others.
Shipping: Early Q1 2026 (January/February for most regions).
Test Photographers Speak: “Sony Is Still the Same Sony” – But What Does That Mean?
Okay, the real juice is coming from an anonymous tester in the Independent Photographer Association, often called the IPA (webio). Obviously, we are not sure about the type of information being shared, but typically, the Independent Photographer Association is known for its authenticity, so we are sharing some of the beta tester experience here.
According to an anonymous test photographer, “Sony is still the same Sony. There are some disappointing aspects, but it fits the Sony model’s positioning. It will probably sell well. We’ll see when the test videos are released.”
Another test photographer said, “The A7V should be the ‘standard all-around full-frame camera’ in this price range for the next few years.”
“I’m curious about what the test photographer means when he says, ‘As always, “that Sony,”‘ but perhaps he means that, for better or worse, it’s a quintessentially Sony camera. 2nd photographer also added, ‘It will probably sell well’ and ‘It will become the “standard all-purpose full-frame camera,”‘ so we can expect it to be a well-balanced camera capable of handling a wide range of tasks.”
Final Thoughts: Is the α7V Your Next Upgrade?
Sony A7 V is technically no longer a rumour. Since we’ve already seen the placeholder at B&H Store, and right now the teaser images are being posted by the Sony Germany social media handles, and we already have the specs and price of the camera that we covered in our November post.
So very soon, we will have all the possible latest updates and official images of the Sony α7 V camera in the next few days before the official announcement. So stay tuned at thenewcamera.com for live updates, latest news, and rumors.
The article “Sony A7V Teaser Images Leak: Test Photographers Spill the Beans on the Next Full-Frame Powerhouse” was written on 1:10 pm, Saturday, 29 November 2025, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
We have all been eagerly awaiting the Sony A7 V camera news and information, but it has finally made its first official appearance in the B&H Store. The king has finally a placeholder page that has gone live today on November 28, 2025. You can click on “Notify When Available,” and rest assured that this page will list the A7 V starting from December 2, 9:00 AM EST. Sony is ready to pull the curtain, and the hybrid mid-range mirrorless camera is coming out with all sorts of perfection that we have dreamed of.
Reports suggest the camera will have a 33-megapixel partially stacked sensor, so this is a kind of half-baked refresh, not a full one. But yeah, we are happy with it. A turbo-charged image processing engine and, for the first time, the entry of an AI processor inside the A7 series. With all this, you can reach continuous shooting speeds of up to 30 frames per second, and with the improved AI algorithm inside the camera, you can not only track human faces and eyes, but now even bug eyes, speeding vehicles of any shape, or maybe a hawk flying on steroids can be tracked.
No information about open-gate recording yet, but yes, the rumour mill made us believe the camera will capture 4K 60 FPS uncropped, and all these things will be available at an approximate price of $2999 body-only, with a $300 hike from the Sony A7 IV announcement price.
Finally, the DJI Pocket 4 has surfaced at FCC registration, confirming its availability for the camera in the USA. The key registration or certification surfaced on November 26, 2025.
That’s a very clear and strategic move by the DJI before the official December 23 ban. It will clearly open the way for the new DJI Pocket 4 camera in the USA; otherwise, without FCCID registration, it won’t be feasible for the company to introduce any new products in the USA.
So, DJI is working really very hard to bring out all the latest cutting-edge technological products from DJI before December 23, 2025 ban. And that’s why not only in the month of December, but from the past 2 to 3 months, we are having massive announcements from DJI, starting from drones to action cameras, and now finally they are updating the Pocket series.
Unpacking the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 FCC ID: Insights from 2ANDR-OP04 on Design and Rollout Readiness
The FCC ID 2ANDR-OP04—tied to grantee SZ DJI Osmo Technology Co., Ltd.—marks the Pocket 4 (model OP-04) as compliant with Part 15 rules for unintentional radiators.
So, as we all know, after the FCC ID registration, a company generally has 180 days to announce its product. After that, once the confidentiality period is over, the FCC ID will make the internal and external test photos public.
DJI is fully prepared for this, and we have already seen the leaked images, the NDA Forms, as well as the DJI pocket, have also been spotted in a Barcelona Chinaproduct commercial shoot. Not only that, but it has also been spotted a few times in China in the hands of reviewers
And let’s hope so, we have got a hint from the YouTuber Photobraz that the DJI Pocket 4 may arrive on December 18, and I have given space to this particular rumour on my website since the earlier prediction made by Photocraz related to the Action 6 was approximately 99% accurate, specifically about the announcement.
So, this is just another checkbox that confirms the arrival of the DJI Pocket 4 sooner than expected. Take a look at the core specification of the DJI Pocket 4.
How the Pocket 4 FCC Leak Fuels Speculation on Upgraded Creator Tools
We all know that the FCC will remain tight-lipped for 180 days, and after that, it is going to reveal the images and major intel related to the registered Pocket 4 camera, but even before that we already have leaked specifications of the Pocket 4. Although it’s not coming from highly trusted sources, we do have it, so let’s have a look

Navigating the FCC Ban Horizon: Pocket 4’s Certification as a Creator Lifeline
You may not be able to understand, but this one is the most important news for creators who love to use Pocket series cameras for their content creation, and specifically in the United States of America, since this is actually a lifeline to the Pocket series camera. Without it, DJI was not able to circulate or sell the Pocket 4 camera in the USA. So the FCC ID registration was highly necessary, and since it has been done already, and we do have strong rumors related to the Pocket 4 arrival on or before December 23, 2025, all these are good signs for a content creator and specifically for the survival of the Pocket series in the United States.
Why I am saying the survival of the Pocket series in the United States is becoming more and more tougher than ever is because not only Hero is making the Pocket series rival, but a lot of Chinese smartphone makers like Vivo / Realme are in the final stage of testing and releasing Pocket 4 style cameras. Apart from all this, we have recently seen the Robo smartphone from Honour that will surely dominate the content creation market in the near future.
Closing Shot: Seize the Pocket 4 FCC Window for Your Creative Edge
With multiple pieces of information we have coming out from different sources, as we have said, if we combine all together, it does confirm to us that Pocket 4 is arriving soon. Expect 6K on hand, for capturing highly detailed video, zooming ability, to creators’ availability to empower spontaneous stories like never before. Eyes on DJI for that Dec. 18 reveal; leys hope for the best to happen.

We have two different 360-degree drones here. It all started with the Insta360 Antigravity A1 series drone that was announced back in August 2025, and we have covered all the possible details about the drone. The other one is the DJI Avata 360, which is about to arrive soon, just after the Antigravity A1.
Creative freedom with 360 Capture: First, we need to understand that these are not ordinary drones. They are actually a powerhouse of creativity; both of them can capture all-around 360°, and later on, once the video is recorded, anyone with that cinematic 360 footage can crop out or dig out the details, recompose or create a specific perspective-based scene, which means complete 360 footage gives you immense freedom to capture what you want to even once the shooting is done and ur editing the footage.
Both are under 250g drones, so neither of them actually requires FAA registration for use in the US. But how will you choose them based on specifications, features, and obviously the factors that also depend on whether you are living inside the US or outside the USA? So we are covering all the details here that will help you select the best drone for you. Let’s dive into the details.
Let’s compare the specifications of both the drones
Head-to-Head Specs Comparison
Both drones excel in 360° video, but differences in stabilisation, battery life, and control could sway your pick. Here’s a side-by-side:
The integrity A1 drone captures a full 360° view from both the fish eye lenses, and the best part is,. You get all the 360 footage stitched together in 8K higher resolution, which you can explore and edit later, and the good thing is that we have seen the output of insta 360 drone, which is obviously very impressive
Now the next is the Avata 360, which is said to feature a bit larger 1/1.1 sensor inside it, but we still waiting for further confirmation related to the same and the overall set up of the Avta 360 matches with the OSMO 360 camera so what we do hope and expect that this time also the image quality will be superior, specifically in terms of low light performance and dynamic range due to the presence of larger sensor inside it
By construction design, if you look, the 360 is more advanced since the camera is actually based on a mechanical gimbal, which can be slanted or rotated as per the user’s choice. The initial information coming out from the sources suggests that the 360 also allows users to use a single-mode camera only if they love to capture FPV-style video, so the Avata 360 can work as a regular FPV-style drone as well as a 360 drone. And if the information is true, then for sure, its tech seems ahead of the Insta360 Antigravity A1 drone.
The Antigravity A1 shines in pure 360° creativity: its top-and-bottom fisheye lenses stitch footage in real time, making the drone “invisible” in shots. The Insta360 is able to capture 8K/30fps. Again, the 8K resolution is more than enough for pro-level edits in post, which is ideal for pro-level edits in tools like Insta360’s app. The Avata 360 counters with versatility: its dual 1/1.1-inch CMOS sensors enable sharp 8K/50fps 360° video for smoother action, plus 4K/120fps in standard FPV mode and 38MP panoramic stills. The mechanical gimbal delivers buttery-smooth stabilisation for windy days, with strong low-light performance inherited from DJI’s recent Osmo lineup.
Flight Experience
With the Antigravity A1, we have already seen that we are getting DJI-like controllers, where we have just the joystick controllers and the FPV goggles, so we can have a kind of Superman-style experience of 360 video while flying the Antigravity A1 drone.
And in this scenario, we have no questions for the 360, since we already know DJI already has a professional set of goggles / Joystick controllers for their drones. So, it’s quite obvious that we will get the enhanced experience with Avata 360 too.
– even with the leaked images that we have seen of the Avata 360—that the user is experiencing the Avata 360 drone with DJI Avata 2 goggles and controllers.
Specifically, in terms of user experience, we have to wait for the actual user reviews from those who buy and review the drones, but before that, both look very capable with their controllers.
Perspective 1: If You’re Living in the US
US buyers, listen up: Before discussing any specification, the type of drone the amount you are paying, the big elephant in the room is the DJI Ban by December 23, 2025. Now, if the ban happens, then for sure, it will be a big trouble for DJI itself to sell its drones. Although the Avta 360 has already declared FCC registration details, yes, we do believe that there are still some big chances left for our 360 to appear in the US market. But the condition is only if it gets announced honour before December 23, 2025.
If you are someone new and not already invested heavily in the DJI systems, like controllers, etc it’s better to invest in Insta360 Antigravity A1 drone series initially. Although if you are a DJI lover, for sure you can surely wait for the DJI
Our Pick: Go for the Antigravity A1. At $1,300–$1,700, it’s pricier, but the ban-proof peace of mind, superior 360° reframing, and immersive controls outweigh the Avata’s battery edge. If you’re deep in the DJI ecosystem (e.g., owning Avata 2 goggles), snag the Avata 360 pre-ban for ~$1,099—but act fast and stock up on batteries. For newcomers, the A1’s “fly once, edit forever” workflow is a US creator’s dream, especially with no customs drama.
Perspective 2: If You’re Not Living in the US
Outside the US? You’re in luck—no ban clouds the horizon, so both drones will hit global shelves without US-style restrictions. Availability shines through: DJI’s massive international distribution means the Avata 360 will pop up on local sites like MediaMarkt (EU) or JB Hi-Fi (Australia) by early 2026, often with region-specific plugs and warranties. The Antigravity A1 follows suit via Insta360’s stores in Europe, Asia, and beyond, though expect slight delays in shipping.
Our Pick: The DJI Avata 360 edges it out. For ~$1,099, you get DJI’s unbeatable flight stability, 30-minute flights, and autonomous modes
US folks: Prioritise the A1 to future-proof your kit.
Internationals: Lean DJI for value and versatility. Whichever you choose, these drones redefine “point-and-shoot” from the air.

Hello tech lovers. Now you have to imagine this situation. You are scrolling X late at night and bam. You just spotted the leaked photos of the DJI Pocket 4 — the next big thing that hits your feed and brain simultaneously. Now, the tiny camera has already created a lot of buzz before its official announcement around the corner. The camera, which can easily fit in your pocket and gives you enormous power to create content with a big punch. That’s the Osmo Pocket series for you. The Pocket series, including the Pocket original, the Pocket 2, and the Pocket 3, has redefined content creation in a unique and different way. Specifically, the Pocket 3 has become so popular among content creators. It has grabbed almost 50% of the video market in most countries around the globe.
Let’s have a look at the OG Leaked Image shared by a trusted source, published on Aug 31, 2025. More details here
Both of the camera modules look completely different in size. The left one is noticeably tinier, akin to auxiliary sensors we generally see in smartphones or DJI drone multi-camera module units, for specialised functions. This asymmetry suggests not a symmetrical stereo pair but a main-auxiliary duo. source image credit: Quadro_News
And yesterday, November 24, the internet exploded. Why? Store photos from a DJI shop in China, showing a wild dual-camera gadget. But wait—is it the real prototype? Or just some clever AI fake? Let’s cut through the noise. Simple as that.
source of the leaked image @Xdrones Studio
The Leak That’s Lighting Up X
First, take a look at the design. The design is not new. It has already been shared by a vet leaker, which does resemble that, having a dual camera setup.
Apart from this, the post was shared by xdronesstudio on Twitter with the handle D2 Help – it started with @D2Help’s post. In Portuguese: “Super weird—the buttons, the twisty screen, and a screen on the back? 😱 DJI Pocket 4 AI hoax??” – and just after they have published this particular post, although they have mentioned in the last line their confusion about the image by clearly mentioning, pocket 4 AI hoax ?… , but no one cared about the letter part. Everyone started sharing the same images one after another on X, within a very short time, across multiple accounts on X. Finally, it reached us again via our subscribers for cross-checking and verification.
ut before we jump to tell our conclusion about the recently leaked image, we have our friend @hakasushi who really cares about sharing authenticated images and content. Take a look at what he said: “Screen on the wrong side? Gimbal looks wonky. AI’s fooling us good.” Doubt everywhere.
How the Buzz Spread Like Wildfire
@D2Help lit the fuse at 11:30 GMT on November 24, dropping two intriguing promo shots of what looks like the DJI Pocket 4 in a sleek Apple Store-like setting. Their caption? A mix of awe and doubt in Portuguese: “Very strange—the buttons, the rotating screen, then a screen on the back 😱…. !!!…?? 🧐 DJI Pocket 4 AI??” Complete with #dji #djipocket4. Boom—cross-posts ignited:
@Drones19170668 on November 25: “Dji pocket 4 👈🙂” Sharing the same leaked image with a cheeky point-and-smile emoji, like it’s the perfect holiday gadget tease.
@D2Help followed up on November 25 with more visuals: “#djipocket4 e ….” alongside a side-by-side image and a quick video clip, fueling the design speculation.
Fresh today (November 26), @WillStarkhpym jumps in with a hype comparison: “🎥 Pocket 3 vs Pocket 4—the evolution of smooth shooting! Smaller, smarter, and sharper visuals in every frame. 🔥 Which one would you choose? 🤔 #DJIPocket3 #DJIPocket4 #DJI,” pairing it with a mockup image.
Reddit’s buzzing too – r/osmopocket side-by-sides. Weibo threads calling out “perfect lighting? Smells like AI.” Remember Pocket 3’s fuzzy leaks in 2023? They were real. But now, with tools like Midjourney, fakes are pro-level. One X user nails it: “Five shares? It’s truth… or trash.”
Real Thing or Total Fake? Our Quick Check
When we asked Grok to analyse the image, whether it is real or fake, Grok pointed out some of the AI indicators that we cannot ignore, and these are:
Signs of Fakery (AI/Manipulation Check by Grok AI)
AI Generation Indicators:
Subtle inconsistencies: The gimbal tilt/bracket misalignment (poster’s second red flag) looks unnatural—real DJI gimbals lock precisely. Screen reflection on the grip doesn’t quite match the ambient store lights.
Lens assembly: Dual lenses are symmetrically placed but seem “pasted” (minor edge glow under magnification). Background elements (e.g., laptop screens) are sharp but lack fine details like visible ports or keyboards.
Generation artefacts: Hands-free setup is common in AI images (e.g., Midjourney prompts like “DJI store demo with futuristic gimbal”). The “LIT” overlay could mask edits.
Now, these are the analyses done by Grok, which seem to be valid. The other big point is that the image is not coming from any of the trusted, known sources.
We have done a deep analysis of the image. Now, as a reader, it’s your turn to let us know what you think about the image is it real or Fake? Let us know in the comment section below

It is really a very big surprise that this is the second time in the past 3 months that the Hasselblad ultra-luxury X2D Mark II camera, which costs approximately $7,399 for the body only, and then you have to pay extra for lenses. This luxury camera is again back in the #1 position on the Yodobashi Camera interchangeable lens sales chart, which is an exciting and amazing scene. I’m not able to believe such a luxury camera is at the number one position for the second time. That means the sale is going really very well and that will encourage Hasselblad to expand the mirrorless lineup. This is for the first half of November 2025 (Nov 1–15), per fresh CAPA CAMERA WEB data.

The Hasselblad X2D Mark II 100C was announced earlier this year, and it is not a cheap or affordable camera. It costs more than $8000+ body only. Well, Japanese people obviously prefer quality over price. The camera features a massive 100MP 43.8 x 32.9mm BSI CMOS sensor, 16-bit color, 15-stop dynamic range, a newly added LiDAR-based 425 phase-detection AF system, and industry-best 10-stop in-body stabilisation. All these features mean the camera is built to deliver ultimate image quality to a professional. “But topping Yodobashi’s charts? That’s not just hype; it’s a sign of Japan’s discerning buyers prioritising quality over quantity
The Comeback Story: The camera already scored #1 in September 2025, dipped last due to the ZR buzz, and Nikon users were pre-ordering and buying their favorite cinema camera month amid Nikon ZR buzz, and now it’s back with all its glory at the No.1 Position again
Japan’s Love Affair with Luxury: It shows the buying power of Japanese people and their understanding of quality. Yodobashi shoppers aren’t impulse buyers. In a market where iPhone cameras are stealing the compact and mirrorless camera market share, the X2D’s resurgence highlights a premium push, and finally, people now prefer Real high-quality images rather than upscaled AI images of smartphones.
Global Ripple Effect? While Hasselblad’s (now DJI) niche is hitting the specific requirement of very limited users (global search volume is modest at ~10K monthly vs. Sony’s millions), this Japanese dominance and sales volume of X2D II could trigger DJI to announce more Mirrorless series similar to the X2D series.
Most of the best-selling cameras, month after entry-level and mid-range models, the Sony α7C II (#2), the Hasselblad crushes dynamic range (15+ stops vs. 14) but trades portability for power. Versus Nikon’s Z5II (#5),

Well, Nikon usually does this, but this is the first time I have noticed that Canon is updating its older generation of compact cameras. The latest firmware update for the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III and Canon PowerShot SX740 HS actually addresses a long-term user request for enhancing the performance. And obviously, these updates, which have been made to the SX740 and Canon G7 X III are not minor ones. The update is an attempt to make these cameras more relevant in today’s hybrid shooting landscape. If you’re a vlogger, travel photographer, or casual shooter holding onto these gems, this is the upgrade you’ve been waiting for.
So, let’s explore what’s new and what changes have been made with the latest set of firmware updates.
Why These Firmware Updates Matter in 2025
Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III was announced back in 2019, and the Canon SX740 HS camera was announced in 2018, so obviously, they are not new, and more than 6 to 7 years have passed since their announcement. But still, they are very popular, and the demand is so high that they are right now being sold at 2X to 3X more price than their original price, since Canon had stopped manufacturing these compacts a while ago.
But the good thing is that recently Canon has restored the manufacturing of both the compacts, and very soon we will have them in stock at a normal price tag.
And the most interesting part is, despite the old announcement, the G7 X Mark III camera uses a 1-inch stacked CMOS sensor and 4K video recording capabilities with a very user-friendly display screen and built-in microphone input for clear audio. So, it is still one of the best and perfect cameras for content creators who love to have a dedicated compact camera for content creation and are not interested in investing in system cameras. Other than that, we also have the Canon SX740 HS packs a punch with 40x optical zoom and 4K recording in a pocketable body, ideal for travel adventures.
But as battery tech advances, users demand better options. Enter Canon’s latest firmware: support for the NB-15L Battery Pack, a higher-capacity alternative to the standard NB-13L. This isn’t just about longer shoots; it’s about future-proofing these cameras amid rumors of successors like the teased G7 X Mark IV and SX750 HS (as covered on The New Camera).
Breaking Down the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III Firmware Update
Key Changes in Version 1.4.0
NB-15L Battery Pack Support: The headline feature. Swap in the NB-15L for extended runtime during 4K streams or burst shooting. No more mid-vlog battery swaps—essential for content creators.
Improved Compatibility: Updating the core software to make it flawless and get connected with Canon’s ecosystem, including updated Camera Connect app features for wireless transfers.
Download the file to your computer’s SD card reader (ensure your card is formatted in-camera).
Insert the card, power on the camera, and follow the on-screen prompts. Backup your settings first!
For more on why the G7 X Mark III remains a 2025 must-buy, check The New Camera’s back-in-stock guide, highlighting its limited production run and renewed availability.
Canon PowerShot SX740 HS Firmware Update: Zoom into Stability
Key Changes in Version 1.3.4
NB-15L Battery Pack Support: Like its sibling, the SX740 HS now embraces the higher-capacity battery,
Enhanced System Stability: Canon fixed minor glitches, flawlessly compatible with the new addition of the app
Prep your SD card and camera as above. Test the battery swap post-update for peace of mind.
Dive deeper into its enduring appeal with The New Camera’s Amazon stock alert, calling it a “last chance” for this zoom beast before potential successors.
Final Thoughts: Upgrade Your Canon Classics Today
Canon’s firmware updates for PowerShot G7 X Mark III and SX740 HS prove that great cameras only get better with age. The NB-15L support actually extends their lifespan, and the latest updates making them more stable. If you’re eyeing a restock or just dusting off your kit, now’s the time—grab the downloads and hit record.
