ADTi 24MP 24L V2 Surveyor Lite Drone Mapping Camera

The ADTi 24L V2 Surveyor Lite is the third generation of ADTi's 24MP APS-C mapping cameras, built for survey and photogrammetry drones that need the autopilot to drive the camera. Its ADTi SDK control system works with Airpixel on PX4 and ArduPilot via MAVLink, and the 122 g body suits small multirotors and fixed-wing mappers.

Key features

• 24.3MP Sony APS-C sensor: 23.5 × 15.6 mm with 3.92 µm pixels, shooting 6000 × 4000 stills in JPEG, RAW or RAW+JPEG.
• Upgraded active cooling: a more efficient fan with lower power draw than the cooling system on the 24L V1.
• Bluetooth setup: change camera settings wirelessly before a flight.
• HDMI capture card: connects the camera to any Android device to check its settings.
• Sony E mount with autofocus: AF and manual focus from 25 cm to infinity.
