Which Drone is Best for Photography

May 14, 2019 by BuyDig Team Leave a Comment

Aerial photography is responsible for some of the most impressive shots on Instagram, YouTube, and even TV. But you don’t need to hop on a helicopter or biplane to get these excellent shots. While there are many different uses for drones, aerial photography is one of the most popular. As drone photography becomes more popular, it’s getting more difficult to decide which drones are the best for your needs. Here are some of the best drones for photography, as well as the situations they suit the most.

Real Estate Drone Photography
The DJI Phantom 4 Pro is considered one of the best photography drones on the market. It’s a favorite for consumers, professionals, and businesses thanks to its exceptional video and photo quality. What makes the DJI Phantom 4 Pro great for real estate drone photography is that its price range makes it accessible to both small and large businesses. Since the Phantom 4 Pro is also consumer-friendly, it’s easy enough for businesses to use as well without needing a professional drone pilot on hand. Its features include a maximum flight time of 30 minutes, three-axis stabilization, Cinema 4K (C4K) video recording, and a 20MP camera with adjustable aperture.


The Best Drone for Photography
The DJI Mavic 2 Pro from Buydig.com is the new and improved iteration of the original drone. As the company’s flagship consumer drone, it not only comes with exceptional quality, but also great portability and ease-of-use. It’s equipped with a 20MP Hasselblad camera, six-axis obstacle avoidance, foldable arms, and a maximum flight time of 31 minutes. It also has a few awesome tricks, such as the ability to create 48MP super-resolution images by patching together nine photos taken with the drone’s telephoto lens. It also has a hyperlapse function, a favorite effect among many photographers for drone photography. The drone features HDR and a “hyperlight” low-light mode to make sure your pictures achieve stunning depth and detail. The drone is the belle of the ball when it comes to being the best drone for 4K photography.

Drone Wedding Photography
Wedding moments are not repeatable, so you want to ensure a high-quality, easy to use drone that won’t leave you wishing you could have a “do-over.” If you want the safest possible flying experience, the DJI Phantom 4 Pro is the best wedding photography drone. It’s equipped with a 3-axis gimbal, and a 1” 20MP sensor and captures 4K footage at either 60fps or 30fps. It also supports RAW format. Its titanium and magnesium alloy frame keeps it lightweight, making it easy to carry and prolonging its flight time to around 30 minutes. Planning on the reception lasting a while? Be prepared with an extra intelligent flight battery! At 4.3 miles, it has more than enough control range for a wedding. One reason to love the Phantom 4 Pro for your drone wedding photography in particular? Obstacle avoidance. This drone senses any potential obstacles in five directions to help you avoid collisions from all sides. Even if you’re a good pilot, you don’t want to risk a crash, and obstacle avoidance almost guarantees your drone is crash-proof.

If you want the quietest possible drone: DJI Mavic Pro Platinum. The Mavic Pro Platinum folds up to the size of a water bottle, making it the smallest of the drones. Ideal if you want to leave room in your camera bag for other gear as well. Thanks to its more aerodynamic propellers, the Mavic Pro Platinum is a nearly silent machine designed for discreet flights, making it the ideal wedding photography drone if you intend to shoot during the actual ceremony. Again thanks to the new propellers, the Platinum’s flight time went from 27 to 30 minutes using the same battery as its predecessor. It weighs only 734 grams and shoots in 4K, has a 3-axis gimbal carrying a RAW format-capable 12MP camera.


While using the best drones for photography will give you the opportunity to capture some of the rarest views, having a drone won’t necessarily make you a great photographer. When it comes to honing your photography skills, practice makes perfect.
