Another beginner...

Hello all,
Thought I'd just say a quick hello as I've been lurking for a while as I reserched the MP2 and the build up buying & take off!

Took my first 3 flights yesterday after waiting for perfect weather to kick off with, and can safely say I'm officially blown away by this bit of kit!
Taking it easy at first as I'm not very interested in ending up on Youtube ditching a grand into the sea ;-)

I'm an old school stills photographer - studio & location commercial food & drink mainly, with a lot of travel & landscape work too.
(Started on a Nikon FM2, 29 yrs ago and have gone through pretty much all shapes & sizes from 5x4, Hassy's, Mamyia's, Leaf & been with Canon 5d's since 2010 & I'm currently on a 5DSR

Thought I'd finally take the plunge with a drone now that the image is up to speed, and can't quite believe we are now flying a hasselblad around in sky for a grand! - we really do live in the future

Many thanks to lots of you for the many informative posts & answers I've read over the past month or so & I'm sure I'll be back with some Q's very soon.

Anyway here's a shot of my home town, Brighton, UK, from my 3rd flight yesterday evening.

You will continue to be amazed at what the drone can do and the aerial perspective as well.
