Z40K is a high-precision professional 3-axis gimbal which features high stability,
small size, light weight and low power consumption. The 3-axis gimbal based on FOC
motor control technology, adopts high-precision encoder in each motor. With
advanced OIS function, Z40K can compensate the subtle movements of the UAV to
keep the camera stable even under 20 times optical zoom. iA Zoom is up to 40x.
Powered by Panasonic 1/2.3inch CMOS 4K camera, can store 4K video and high
resolution picture. The max total pixel 25.9MP can be achieved under Picture Mode.
Z40K is engineered for inspection especially power and utility industry.
It’s a DJI PSDK based payload, can be used on DJI drones M210 / M210RTK & V2
series / M300 and controlled directly and fully by APP DJI PILOT.

3.1 Camera Settings
In the APP, you can choose different camera options according to your application demands.
3.1.1 Camera Options:
Photo ratio:
>Picture 16:9: total pixel is 25.9MP
