Most higher-end smart telescopes can cost thousands of dollars for a large body, even without an eyepiece.
The small smart telescope could already take some impressive 4K imagery of stars, nebulae, or distant planets.
The company promises the new version can use AI tracking to photograph moving birds or other animals.

Regarding specs, the Dwarf III seems like a better rendition of the design than the Dwarf II.
Its sporting the newer Sony IMX678 8.86 mm sensor from 2024.
The wide lens also supports Astro, but that lens is better for targets on Earth.

The Dwarf III can take higher-speed video with both lenses than its older brother.
It can now do 4K video at 30 FPS and 1080p at 60 FPS through the telephoto lens.
Before, it was restricted to 25 FPS and 30 FPS at the respective resolutions.
The wide-angle lens has been upgraded to do 1080p video at 30 FPS.
It doesnt sound too great compared to what you may get with dedicated devices.
Previously, you had to spend nearly $600 for the deluxe edition with an extra battery.
The Dwarf IIIs size is a perk for photography.
We contacted Dwarflabs to see if those are coming later or if theyre compatible with the new version.
