Questions and Answers

What is a key consideration when shooting Panos?

  • Using a wide-angle lens to capture the entire scene
  • Starting from the left and yawing to the right with 60-80% overlap (correct)
  • Using a tripod to avoid camera shake
  • Taking photos in burst mode to reduce camera movement

What is the purpose of creating an HDR of each stack in the post-production process?

  • To reduce noise in the individual photos
  • To enhance the dynamic range of each stack (correct)
  • To combine the HDRs from individual stacks
  • To create a single Pano from the individual stacks

When is it time to fly the drone back home?

  • When the drone's battery level reaches 3.6 volts per cell (correct)
  • When the drone has reached its maximum distance
  • When the drone has reached its maximum altitude
  • When the drone's battery level reaches 50% capacity

Study Notes

Shooting Panoramas (Panos)

  • Shooting Panos is one of the most profitable photography endeavors
  • It involves taking multiple photos from different angles and stitching them together
  • Use sport mode to shoot Panos, and start from the left, focusing on one point, then yaw to the right about 20% of the image, ensuring 60-80% overlap with the previous frame
  • Repeat the process, moving to the right, until the entire scene is captured

Post-Production Process

  • Import photos into Lightroom and stack them together
  • Create an HDR of each stack
  • Combine the HDRs from individual stacks to create a single Pano

Drone Operations

  • Always monitor the drone's battery level during flight
  • When the battery level reaches 3.6 volts per cell, it's time to fly home
  • The drone has about 2,000 linear feet to fly home safely at this voltage level
  • Turn off downward obstacle avoidance sensors when landing to prevent the drone from lifting out of your hand
  • Avoid landing in grass, as it can damage the gimbal and motors
  • Use a landing pad to prevent dust and dirt from entering the motors and obstacle avoidance sensors

Shooting Panoramas (Panos)

  • Shooting Panos is a highly profitable photography genre.
  • It involves capturing multiple photos from different angles and stitching them together.
  • To shoot a Pano, use sport mode, starting from the left, focusing on one point, and then yaw to the right about 20% of the image.
  • Ensure 60-80% overlap with the previous frame before moving to the right and repeating the process until the entire scene is captured.

Post-Production Process

  • Import photos into Lightroom and stack them together.
  • Create an HDR of each stack.
  • Combine the HDRs from individual stacks to create a single Pano.

Drone Operations

  • Monitor the drone's battery level during flight.
  • Return to base when the battery level reaches 3.6 volts per cell.
  • At this voltage level, the drone has about 2,000 linear feet to fly home safely.
  • Turn off downward obstacle avoidance sensors when landing to prevent the drone from lifting out of your hand.
  • Avoid landing in grass as it can damage the gimbal and motors.
  • Use a landing pad to prevent dust and dirt from entering the motors and obstacle avoidance sensors.
