While not my first flying device, the Anafi has been the best one I've ever owned. I just recently bought the Anafi based on it's camera specs and I plan to use it for photography more than video.

One thing I wish I had known about before I even took it out for it's first flight was how valuable the the rotor guards and leg extensions are! These are practically a must have for beginners or when flying indoors. (or both!) Even *if* the drone falls, the guards and extensions provide (affordable) impact resistance. I did on one occasion notice an extension was visible on the camera when the drone inclined while moving sideways, but that can be avoided by adjusting the piloting controls.
I would also recommend getting the "skins" to help protect the Anafi from scratches.

I've attached a couple of my first pics (processed the dng's with lightroom). I'm really impressed with the images considering it's a drone! I'm going to do more experimenting with the camera controls, while eagerly awaiting my CPL lens.

So far I'm loving this Anafi!

Welcome to the Forum. I think you will enjoy your membership. There are many other members happy to provide assistance for any issues you may have, and those that may need information you bring. A lot of good information is already stored in existing threads.

Couple easy things:
1.) The search Icon is your friend. It's the magnifying glass near the upper right of the screen when you scroll all the way up. It can find many answers you will never find by yourself.
2.) Be aware that you won't always get a quick response. There are times when many other members are on line, and sometimes only a few. A response may not show up until the right person sees it.
3.) Be aware the forum is Global. If you are exchanging with a member on the other side of the world, response can get delayed and out of sequence due to a difference in local time.
4.) Although the Forum is global, the language is English. It is customary to translate other languages to English. Many members also include the original language post to help alleviate translation errors.
5.) Review the forum rules (on the bottom right). There are not too many, but it is important they are followed to keep the Forum a useful and happy place for everyone.
