Four drone photography tips<br />
Essential advice when you’re getting started with drone photography<br />
1<br />
GPS functionality<br />
is a must-have<br />
feature that gives the<br />
drone stability and<br />
control. With GPS you<br />
can let go of the<br />
controls and it will<br />
keep hovering in the<br />
same spot.<br />
2<br />
Invest in extra<br />
batteries.<br />
Generally the<br />
batteries on your<br />
drone will only last<br />
15 or 20 minutes, so<br />
you’ll want to have<br />
a few to make the<br />
most of a shoot.<br />
An FPV (firstperson-view)<br />
3<br />
monitor is not<br />
essential but a very<br />
handy accessory that<br />
helps you see what<br />
exactly your drone’s<br />
camera can see while<br />
it’s up in the air.<br />
4<br />
When you’re<br />
starting out, pick<br />
an isolated location<br />
such as a field and<br />
practise, practise,<br />
practise until you feel<br />
more confident to take<br />
your drone out to<br />
busier locations.<br />
