About this episode
Today's show is about using drones for shooting hotels and resorts. Our caller for today, Jordan from NY has an opportunity to shoot some aerial footage of a resort. However, his client wishes to accentuate the beautiful mountains in the background. And so, Jordan is thinking of renting the Mavic 2 Zoom for this new gig. But, is the zoom on this DJI drone powerful enough to accentuate the beautiful background? And, should Jordan consider the Inspire 2-X7 combo for this gig? Apart from this Mavic 2 Zoom - Inspire 2 comparison, we also reveal some red flags that Jordan needs to watch out for while renting a drone. We wrap up this show by sharing some great golden photography tips to help Jordan out. Enjoy!
