Hi Guys,
I'll be shooting aerial footage of a local short swim (mostly jumping off a low pier and swimming about that area, rather than a long distance swim) on new years eve.
I'll stay 30m away from the folks, fly in slow cine mode and won't fly directly over people. Also all participants have been notified there will be a drone. That is sufficient in Ireland re the rules to do this legally.
I've not shot swim events before, I mostly do stationery stuff (houses, hotels, construction etc). The x3 zoom lens will be my friend here I think also.
Any tips or pointers of any if you've done this.
Thinking nd filter, lock ISO to 100. Shoot in 4k60fps or 4k120fps. But I'd be interested to see if you guys have any additional suggestions
Thanks Ro
