I’m no photography expert… at first I really wanted a big sensor on the A3, and was a little disappointed to see 1/1.3 on both A3 sensors. That being said, my primary reason for wanting a big sensor was ability to zoom/crop images. So in my mind, the question is, is a 3x zoom on a 1/1.3 better...

Fantastic!!!

Excellent shots, thanks for sharing!!!

Well, certainly some great talking points here! @mavic3usa and @DoomMeister you guys are right on, our presence is not distracting or destructive, as long as done responsibly, and I think it would be easy to find a good compromise to allow us to fly in the parks (or at least some of them)...

Well, again, I've not heard of anyone getting that permission for anything other than official NPS business, but if you ever come across any details on those situations, I'd love to hear!

Well, this guy definitely didn't have a permit, or I'm sure he would've said so. From what I gather, getting permission and/or a permit to fly in a National Park is highly unlikely (as in impossible) for a recreational or commercial pilot unless they're assisting in either a promotion activity...

Bah, it happened! A couple weeks ago my wife and I went to California, including Yosemite and King’s Canyon/Sequoia National Parks. We spent most of our time at Yosemite, but did a half day drive-through of KC/S, and when we were pulling up to one of the popular panoramic lookouts in King’s...

I’m sure there were many other great shots to be had - I was lucky to get that one - of the 2 of 3 other days we were there, it was low cloud cover or fog. Fortunately, for all the activities we did, the weather was exactly what it needed to be each day to not miss out on anything. Most of...

Sunrise at Tenaya at Yosemite, just a few miles outside the south entrance of YNP. Sometimes if you just get out there, you get lucky!

Great video! Some very nice flying there - I especially liked the shot starting at 1:20, where you transitioned from the approach to looking down and rotating.

Hi all, Taking a trip in early June for a friend's wedding in San Diego, we're making a week of it and going to Yosemite and Sequoia beforehand. Flying in to Fresno to start our trip. Obviously not planning to fly in the parks! But always enjoy finding interesting things in the areas around...

Great shot! Thanks for sharing. Tufts Dental alum here, lived in Boston from ‘10-‘14, lots of fond memories there, including meeting my wife! Can’t believe we’ll be back for our 10 year reunion next year. The city had changed a lot even at our 5 year. I see a lot of recognizable spots...

Nice shots, and unique editing!!!

I’ll tell you who’s in a pickle with no Air 3 available, is folks like myself with an Air 2, and it would hands down be what I would buy, if I could. Why I’m still holding out - the Air 2s is certainly very good, but is only an incremental improvement over the Air 2, and already 2 years old...

Both look great, the Ultrawyde & Rock steady has a more artistic feel, the second video is more realistic. I enjoyed the look of the first video most, but the case could be made for either mode being right for a certain job.
