Deciding on a Drone
As a drone enthusiast, I did ALOT of research before I purchased my first drone. I still fly this one today, but I’m looking at a smaller one to complement it. The Mavic 2 Pro from DJI is a GPS enabled drone with a Hasselblad camera capable of 4K video and 20 MP photography. The gimbal keeps the shot steady no matter how fast the drone is travelling, or what maneuvers are being done.

DJI has this to say about the Mavic 2 Pro:
Our dream has always been to make a drone that exists where engineering, technology, and the needs of the aerial photographer converge. A drone that embodies all of DJI’s advanced, signature technologies, and is able to redefine what is possible for the world of aerial photography.
In creating the Mavic 2, we have made this dream come true.
