    Titan Aerial Photography - Best of 2021

    Outstanding! That’s a lot of hard work! Inspires me to get out there more. The ol’ Anafi still does great imaging!

    Can the drone fly when it's raining?

    Mine was up in the air when it began to rain. Took several minutes to get in landed, and there was no loss of control. Yet, I would not have taken off in the rain, since it's not rated for wet conditions, nor is my iPad, or the controller.

    And then, it began raining

    Just a quick after action summary. I had set up for an intricate flight along a creek, in a ravine, with two waterfalls, in a popular spot, at around 9500' in the Colorado Rockies. It took awhile for the visitors to disappear, but then they were gone, so I took off. It was overcast, minimal...

    Parrot leaves consumers behind: new drones only for "Pro's"

    Hope it's just a rumor, but... Flying the Anafi, it's hard to believe the new version is so much more reliable. This thing is temperamental, unsteady while descending or hovering, and has image quality and stabilization issues. Nevertheless, I rely on it.

    Looking for drone to repair.

    I have two non-functioning Anafis. One has two broken arms. The other is cosmetically fine, but will not lock GPS, so it does not take off. I would like to get that one repaired. Message me if this sounds interesting.

    3 Hand Landing options?

    There's a Parrot video that shows the Anafi hovering 590 cm, about 2 feet, above the hand, then initiating landing. In my experience, it really does not work if my hand is closer than 2 ft, but if I get the distance right, it settles down and stops. Otherwise, it settles fitfully, and won't shut...

    Modding the controller joysticks or using a DJI controller

    I am also wondering how to get smoother moves with Anafi, and looking at the controller. Seems like transitions are jumpy and mechanical, and I include the camera UP/DOWN in that. Practice helps, but it seems like the hardware is a strongly limiting factor.

    a mix of drone and ground shots

    I find it good to mix drone and ground shots to add contrast and vitality, as well as situating the shots as a whole. Feedback welcome. https://www.scottbrickertphotography.com/Around-Curecanti/

    Construction progress video

    I combined aerial Anafi footage with Osmo Pocket footage for this video. The client lives remote from the project, so the goal is to update them once a month. Feedback welcome.

    The futility of HDR mode and correction of Anafi's video in Davinci Resolve.

    I agree that the Sony sensor is supposed to produce some kind of HDR output. I also agree about the perceived color shift. I never really noticed the white balance issue. I attempted to use HDR several times, but could never find a solid workflow that produced a good image. The high price paid...
