As a Producer, Director, Cinematographer, & Video Editor, I've worked with various software & equipment for over 20 years. In that time, I've learned a few things about what might work & what might not. These are what I recommend in the various categories.
Disclaimer: Some links on this page are affiliate links. That means I get paid for them. But I do use the training in the list and use the software & other equipment here as well.
Cameras I Recommend
Drones I Recommend
Drone Pilot Training & Licensing
In order to fly a drone, you must possess a hobby license from an FAA-approved training site, which is free. In order to fly a drone commercially (getting paid for the videos), you must posses a Part 107 license from an approved training site, which does cost. Because the Part 107 is quite difficult to pass, I recommend learning from an approved training site before going to take the actual test.
