Everyone starts somewhere. Everyone is a beginner drone pilot looking for advice at some point. This website is a result of 14 years of the author’s experience in photography and filmmaking and two years of experience in aerial unmanned aircraft operation.
Your flying camera comes equipped with a camera that captures 4, in the best case scenario 12 megapixel images. Capturing single images in this resolution will allow for making some prints up to perhaps 8×10 size. Your photos will also look great on a website, on facebook and on a phone/tablet screen. If your goal however is to create really amazing looking very sharp, rich in detail and color aerial images, you will need more than just a single click. The comprehensive guide that you can purchase below will show you step by step how to achieve incredible results in creating aerial panoramas. From planning your shoot to the final steps in image processing you will learn how to go beyond the native resolution and the dynamic range of your drone’s camera to end up with a truly one of a kind, stunning digital file and a large print.
