didn't read through all the post so this may have been mentioned already. I'm by no means a professional videographer but I can say that after working with final cut and the lut gallery among other editing tricks, the clarity, contrast, color and sharpness are night and day compared to raw...

So i have a commercial RE company that needs about 3 shots of the building at the top. Getting the photos from the right arrow shouldn't be an issue early in the morning. ill probably just put some cones down in a large square section of the parking lot and fly it straight up and down. My...

Would you have the number you called? I just called our local FSDO and he was very nice but wouldn't get into the details of this subject. Said he wasn't allowed to elaborate on topic. obviously told me to try for waiver. thanks

so another option might be: Send the drone up over one of the big structures, other large footprint buildings in the complex. This would seem to cover all my basis. There no one under the drone except the building.. The property manager and security are aware of the possibility of drones being...

That's what i was considering doing. Especially early in morning with low winds and nobody really around. My intent isn't to really be flying laterally. i just need to ascend and descend to get the shots

Would you not do the photo shoot? Who makes the final call on if im doing something legal or not. I'm guessing...

thanks for the link. so if i rephrase my question....... If i send my drone up early in the AM in the corner of a parking lot with no people in it, take a few pictures and come straight down and land it, in your opinion, would this be within the guidelines?

Very clear image. Thanks for sharing. On a side note I see you are part 107 cert pilot. Can you enlighten me on the rules and the need for a waiver when flying over people. thanks

Is there a place on this forum or on some other site that you could see a comparison of raw images shot from phantom 4 1" sensor and the Zenmus X5 and X5S cameras? thanks

thanks. i am certified part 107. are you implying that if your not a part 107 pilot your wouldn't need a waiver?

I'm sure this question has been answered before.... I have an architect that would like me to shoot some aerial shots of a new shopping complex. I would basically be shooting at four corners of the property and would guess that I could have a car or a person under the drone at some point. Do...
