First Flight with Mavic Air

[dvh6530]

Ok so I went from shopping for a Mavic Air on my first post to buying, receiving, studying and taking first flight last night. All I can say is these things are amazing!! I went straight up off our back deck--this is a photo of our neighbors house at about 100' w/ polarizing lens installed.

This thing is very easy to operate and the camera quality is really amazing! Our neighbors have been remodeling their backyard since last fall and we wondered what it looked like

We ended up playing with it for about an hour and the funniest thing was humming birds were coming out of the trees to see it and doing flybys! I tried the smartcapture mode and it had us all laughing at how crazy that is!

I bought one to get photos from a different perspective, these things are great.

I took this shot of Duntottar Castle after just a few days of practice..

^ Amazing. The clarity of the still photos is very impressive!

BTW, that's a low-resolution version, the originals have greater detail.
