Re: Drones - How Difficult to Learn to Fly?

Re: Drones - How Difficult to Learn to Fly?
All good advice.
Go slow and keep in mind the further into the wilderness you go the more likely you are to turn the drone into a paperweight if you crash it.
If your thinking about a Phantom3...

Re: Advice on shooting from a helicopter
Depending on the model of Huey there might be some differences. Most UH-1H and newer have soundproofing that is snapped in, generally you can unsnap it near the door you want to shoot out of and...

Re: Advice on shooting from a helicopter
Nice work. The most expensive part of this solution, and the one we have the least control over is the helicopter itself. This discussion also runs the gamut regarding budget. Robert I think this...

2015 Tevis Cup
This was shot at the 2015 Tevis Cup 100 mile endurance race. Unfortunately I couldn't fly my drone so I could get any actual race footage so I just shot the crews.

Re: Sec 333 Exemption
So you have to kind of have to ask the question, what's the point? That's exactly what some people are doing and for the manual they're just providing a link to DJI's documentation.

Re: Drones delay Firefighter response in CA fire
I think there's another side to this issue and that's all the idiots that believe the reports about drones impeding firefighters ability to do their jobs in the first place.

Re: Drones delay Firefighter response in CA fire
What amazes me, not sure if this has been mentioned or not but everyone seems to take it as fact that five, or any drones impeded the fire fighters in any way. Just because some reporter puts it in...

Re: Import GH4 clips into FCP 7
Not sure I understand the issue. Are you talking about importing 4K to a 1080P timeline or 1080 to a 1080 timeline.

Re: full frame lens for 6d
I have the 70-200 f./4 IS. it works very well.
I've been using it on my GH4 with the Metabones Speed adapter which makes it a 2.8, with IS, and lowers the crop factor.
