Three years ago, it was necessary to shell out mountains of money and send a loud and rather large unmanned aerial vehicle into the air for high-quality aerial shots with a drone. Today, thanks to Extreme Flyer's Micro Drone 3.0, you can capture the action in 720p quality with one of the world's smallest drones. You can pre-order it on Indiegogo for a calculated 135 euros.

Lily is a newly designed drone camera that can fly independently and stabilize itself in the air and follow us if desired, or shoot from the side and thus capture the entire event in 1080p or 720p quality, or captures up to 120 frames per second.
From the time when the first drones appeared (autopilots like ours) to today, when they are ridiculously cheap and buzzing in the air like a spring of bees, a lot has changed. In many countries, they have greatly tightened the legislation regarding their use for commercial purposes. The golden age of photographers mounting compact cameras and taking pictures just about anywhere is sadly over, but Amos Chapple was lucky enough to beat the tougher laws and take photos that would be illegal today.
Some people "pimp" cars, but YouTube user Olivier C decided to "pimp" his four-propeller drone, which he turned into a replica of the Millennium Falcon spaceship from Star Wars and also equipped it for an even more dramatic look with LEDs. The characteristic music accompanying the flight recording is just the icing on the cake.
Facebook in 2015 - It has become a social network that has no equal, and a lot of credit for this is due to its constant exploration of new terrain and the fact that it does not rest on its laurels. In recent years, he has outgrown even himself, and we can only wonder where the path will take him in 2015.
Drone Boning, an erotic short film, was shot entirely with a drone by the Brooklyn-based production company Ghost+Cow Films. In the three-minute film, the actors are caught in an intimate relationship in remote places - on the beach, in the mountains, by the road, on an abandoned farm, etc. It all started as a kind of parody of privacy and voyeurism, but soon the film became much more conceptual.
Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, as we affectionately call them, are becoming an indispensable tool for people who want to create stunning footage, the kind of which we could only see in movies or documentaries a year or two ago, and behind which there was a camera crew and a ton of logistics. With the Hexo+ drone, which follows us automatically, all this is a thing of the past, because now it is possible to record jumps and similar shenanigans without any help.
Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles are one of the fastest growing technological innovations, which are already used in many fields. Although we initially associated them with the military, they are increasingly being used for commercial and private purposes, where activity recording dominates, but Australia's Ars Electronica Futurelab has used them to create art. 3D creations, something between fireworks and a 90's screensaver, were created with these Spaxls.
For many years, aerial photography was just a dream of photographers, but with the advent of low-cost 'trots', drones, this kind of photography literally flew into the sky. Check out the five best photos from the contest of the French branch of National Geographic and Dronestagram in our gallery.
