Title: Which drone do you use for stock video shooting?
Post by: Free_Soul on December 07, 2020, 00:07: Hello everyone,
Which drone do you use for stock video? I am planning to buy my 1st drone for mainly stock footage shooting but thing is its not available in my country and need to get it from amazon USA I guess. So which drone would you suggest considering it should have 4k footage quality and compact light weight design so that it's easy to carry and also easy to drive with useful feature like anti collide system in it.
Thanks in advance

I shoot lots of documentaries for some TV channels!..buying expensive drones just for stock is a complete waste of time!

Exactly.. unless someone's primary earning is from such high end drones why would one buy it specially in current scenario of stock sites
