Introduction
The well-known manufacturer of action cameras and handheld stabilizers, Hawkeye, has decided to declare war on existing hybrid FPV cameras, in particular the newly minted Caddx Tarsier. Based on the disadvantages of the latter, the Hawkeye developers presented their vision of high-quality first-person flight with the ability to simultaneously shoot in high resolution. Firefly Split 4K is a full hybrid FPV camera based on a single lens. Works in tandem with a single board component. Claimed delay time is 0.04 seconds. Capable of recording 4K@30fps, 2.7K@60fps, 1080P@120fps, and 720P@240fps in 16:9 format, no Jello effect, and fisheye correction eye”. Promising, isn’t it? It remains to wait for the finished serial version of the product and make sure of the declared potential in practice.
