I could use a trip to Iceland. Or to Brazil. Or Italy or Japan. Thailand is about to start getting into tourist season in a few months — that would be nice. I’ve seen the Instagram posts and hear the stories of friends or family who seem to be making these sorts of trips all […]
After dabbling in commercial and recreational drone photography for the past 4 years, I think DJI has finally found the “sweet spot”.
