Understanding that this is a controversial area and at the risk of eliciting comments that might move this post to the attic, I'm wondering if there are a sufficient number of members who are either currently involved with or interested in getting into drone photography to consider a new section. We've all seen wonderful examples of what is possible in this area from serious and responsible photographers. I've been only minimally involved for the last couple of years, but am increasingly beginning to look at photography from a new perspective and am excited about the potential. Your thoughts?

Drone photography is a quickly moving technology, becoming increasingly viable as a source of images. I believe your ideas to be spot on. For what it's worth, I do not own a drone, nor intend to, but my step-son is doing some really fantastic stuff!

I would be happy to see a drone photography section. Already have a drone to get started, would like a channel to discuss and decide on future drone GAS attacks

I think that is an awesome idea. Drone photography is an entirely new phenomena. I see amazing video and stills every day. Here is a fantastic video showing what can be done today:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pSKo2N8WGYAnd here is a drone photo I took recently with my DJI Phantom 3 Pro. I am 72 years old and having fun with photography in many ways.
I posted a drone video under the DSL Video section of this web site and got a 110 views so far. I have seen some fabulous drone video and photography stuff on the web. You just search to find it.
Since this is an expensive hobby, I believe that a lot of stuff would not be posted here but I would like to see a section devoted to it.

would like to see a drone photo section. Already have one and learning to fly it. Whew, what a learning curve.

Yes I would like to see a drone section. I have a small cheap one and am waiting until I know enough about them to go big. A drone site should be a good place to learn about them as well as the legal and social aspects.
It's new so everyone has to do it and the fad will wear off. If you just want pictures then do it. If you want quality photographs, stick to and learn what you are doing now.
I have a Phantom 3 Pro. The camera that comes with it is amazing for stills and video. It's lots of fun to take pictures from a vantage point that is entirely unique. It is a fast growing specialty in photography and there are some amazing examples to see of what can be done.

Count me in. I have had a Phantom 2 Vision+ for 2-1/2 years now and am beginning to think about upgrading.
Count me in. I would appreciate a section on Drone Photography. I don't own a drone but would appreciate more information on getting started.
I would like a drone section. Got one a couple of months ago and have been excited to try it out. Just been too busy shoveling and plowing. Hopefully it will stop soon. I think we are up to 470+ inches this season.

A drone section would be nice.
