how much money do you want to spend. That is the only variable related to these drones. For instance there are some drones that have a fully articulated camera mount that can take a full-size 35mm camera. And others that can only accept a 640x480 camera. So it depends on how deep your wallet is.

that would depend on what type of drone you are talking about. A small hobby drone may only have a camera like you have in your phone. a large drone may use a 35mm camera. Back in the 70s I knew a man that had a 35mm camera mounted inside a small model airplane. He could fly around taking pictures from hundreds of feet in the air. However there was a PBS program on a few weeks ago that said the military was developing a new camera system for the drones. One that would cover a small city, track multiple targets at once at full-motion video. The resolution was down to about 6 inches. It used a sensor array equivalent to 8.1 billion pixels. File size was considered to be in the terabyte range. Not a file size that I would want to fool with, And certainly not one that I would need.
