    DJI Phantom 3 Revealed!

    I am beyond happy with the switch from the ugly fish-eye ultra-wide-angle to something more compressed. I was going to go for a P2 or something with a GoPro on it but kept cringing at the thought of dealing with that hideous warp effect. I shoot very tall, large, pole-straight equipment. This...

    DJI Phantom 3 Revealed!

    The Seacrest wannabe was a strange emcee choice, but if you can ignore him, this was EXCITING. The P3 has literally everything I was looking for when I came here yesterday AND the 1080p @ 60fps model is only $999!!!

    LOL Not likely out here, but we have arranged for demos with more military-grade UAVs (we were looking into integration with comms towers) but those are overkill for my use and cost as much as a house. I will see if there are any operators/clubs in my area, though.

    Oooo! Thank you for that tip! I will be watching for it then. I am sure there are a fair few enthusiasts out there who will be itching to get their hands on it ASAP so they can be the first to upload reviews ^_^ I am really anxious to make more interesting video. The work I've done over the...

    Complete UAV n00b - seeking tips/links

    I am a photographer for a manufacturing corporation and the owner has asked me to research UAVs to be used for making simple demonstration and marketing videos of our products.
