New Drone (Page 4): Try it, Stan. You will love the perspectives you'll get. And they are really fun to fly.

Beautiful images. The higher viewpoint certainly adds interest and drama to the scene. There are many times I’ve yearned for a higher viewpoint for a landscape shot - maybe it’s time for a drone for me.

I bought a new Mavic 3 Classic drone. These are my first attempts at photography with this drone. I will be learning as I go. These were taken in Auto Mode. I will be learning Manual mode while in flight.

I just read something the other day about new rules for Drones. I thought I saved it in my bookmarks, but I can't find it. It might of been about the new update near the top of this page.

I have studied the rules fairly carefully. Also, I always ask when there are people around if they have any objections to me flying and recording while they are present. I've had no issues so far.

Fantastic shots Ken. Looking forward to more from the Cajun Air Force!

I think the article I read had rules about keeping the Drone in site unless you had a certain certificate. I remember a diagram of how far you could go if you didn't have that certificate. I started to get a Drone long time ago, but I figured the Government was going to make it a pain with all of their interference. Any more they ruin every thing they touch.

Thanks, Mark. I'll be posting more as I work my way up the learning curve.

Yes, they do ruin everything. They let a few whiners rule the roost. Flying out of sight is against the law. I find that most of my flying is within view, anyway. I will fly out of sight in areas where there are no people and it's wide open territory. I suppose it's like going 5 mph over the speed limit. There are limits on how high you can fly, too. Those I better understand as one would not want to cause an air disaster.

Auto mode looks great!

Thanks, Tim. I am happy with Auto so far. There will be times I want to use manual, though. I only shoot in manual mode with my D850. I don't think that will be the case with my drone.
