❓ What camera specifications are important for drone photography?

Key camera specifications for drone photography include:

• Sensor size: Typically 1/2.3" to 1" for consumer drones, larger sensors offer better low-light performance
• Resolution: 12MP to 48MP for still images, 4K at 30/60fps for video
• Gimbal system: 2-axis or 3-axis stabilization for smooth footage
• Field of view: Usually 78-84 degrees for optimal coverage

Professional drones may offer interchangeable lenses and larger sensors. According to IEEE Spectrum, newer models increasingly include intelligent features like obstacle avoidance and subject tracking.
