Alternative budget option

Alternative budget option to those that have a tight budget and the risk of buying a flying camera drone is just too high. it could even be that the idea needs time to mature, maybe a year or two on basic training in photography and video before it’s time to launch out to the skies. It is a high risk area for those that don’t have money to burn. Here is one such alternative budget option to consider. it does reduce the risk factor by an considerable amount. The flying camera drone is out of the picture, and it’s place is an hand held highly sophisticate piece of equipment, and a GoPro HERO4 multipurpose camera. This alone ensures that the multipurpose camera remains and is highly practical piece of equipment to have for anyone that enjoys action photography.

Alternative budget option explained

There is nothing worse that living under illusion that once a piece of highly sophisticated piece of technology is purchased then life will be rosy for ever after. The problem of falling in love with a gadget is that the love is blind, and there are many false expectations from the consumer. Preventative action is the shortest route back to base camp and to the grass roots of reality. Gadgets are great but they should not be a controlling force that manipulates every waking moment in life. Especially the gadgets that are a high risk for getting damaged and for losing the consumers money. So the best action is the preventative action, and not to go on a limb that will surely crack, and go crushing down to the ground.

Alternative budget option is to avoid the following scenario. When you have finally got the money together to buy the drone and made the purchase then the unexpected happens and it is only the beginning of pain of the exhaust and the thumbscrews of the credit card company are back with vicious vengeance, to get their interest. Buying a camera drone is not a safe bet buy; it is not a sure trusty reliable winner that you keep for 5 to 10 years. Buying a camera drone for many is a high risk, the drone may only make it alive for three, six, or twelve months, before it dies. It then may need some spare parts, expensive repairs or in the worst case a replacement. In comparison to many other items like a Digital camera, it is much more predictable and safe item to spend money on, also relatively robust and highly practical.

Here are some of the risks:

Very fragile sophisticated electronic equipment
Fragile moving parts
Subjective to the weather, mist, water, snow, ice, dust and sand
Made out of plastics
Can be damaged by flying into solid objects
The purchase can be destroyed if accidentally landing in the water
Not to be stepped on, ridden on, sat on or kicked around
It may draw credit cards like a bear to honey, and gobble it up
Not being visually creative enough to see the potential
Any of the above can cost you dearly.

The first step of action in this preventative course of action is to be fully aware what the flying camera drone is and how easily it can be damaged, and how expensive the accidents can be.

Second is to play it safe, ensure guarantee to yourself 100%, that the learn to fly area is open clear space, and no water hazards. That alone is just realistic risk management. Without it a pilot is doomed.

The other option is to put the idea of owning a camera done on a shelf until later on. Until your budget can manage such extravagant endeavors. And the follow up has become an attainable reality.

Here is another way to look at it, and still get a started and eliminate a lot of the money risk involved in owning a flying camera drone. You can still get started with using GoPro Camera, a GoPro Camera is not a such high risk item as the flying camera.

And the second part is buying a Gimbal that is designed for the GoPro Camera and is highly practical for any photographer or video content creator. You can take it anywhere if the weather and the environment permits, while holding in your hand. The hand held Gimbal does cost currently around US $360.00 And if you already own a GoPro Camera then you are well on your way to recording and practicing your video recording skills with the highly sophisticated electronic piece like the GoPro Camera Stabilizer Gimbal, and learn to use it as you ride a bike, or run in the forest around obstacles, to simulate the flight path around objects, and to see how the Gimbal reacts to a given environment and to see how creative or boring your video footage rally is. If you can’t make a creative video on the ground around thenatural environment and objects, then there is no way that you can make one while up in the sky with a camera drone. Things just get a lot more complicated once off the ground. The creative process is in the mind, you have to learn to visualize the flight path and capture before you start recording with a real camera, it does not come by accident. Not up in the air on 20 minute flight batteries. It starts from the ground and eventually works up and gets off the ground with the necessarily acquired skills.
