Sony just gave us our first look at its recently announced Airpeak drone, which teased us last November in a promotional video. While that video generated a lot of excitement, it answered very few questions, like, “What does it look like?,” “Which camera will it support?,” and “Who is it for?” Well, today, we got those answers and a few more. Here’s everything we know so far about the new Airpeak drone.
Alpha Support
According to Sony, the Airpeak can be equipped with an Alpha full-frame mirrorless camera. Not only that, but Sony claims it’s the smallest drone capable of supporting Alpha full-frame cameras. While that might be true, the Airpeak is by no means “small.” Based on what we saw in the video, its size is going to be much closer to a professional drone, like the DJI Inspire 2, than a hobbyist flyer, like the Mavic.
Pros Only
Though Sony didn’t explicitly say it, the Airpeak appears to be aimed at professional photographers and filmmakers. Both its build and the fact that it supports Sony’s Alpha series suggests this drone is not meant for the casual flyer. To highlight that point, Sony showcased how the Airpeak was used as a chase camera to shoot footage of Sony’s VISION-S concept car.
