This is a test of a few apps on my iPhone just to see what can be done with time-lapse and tilt shift effects. The song is “The Ecstasy of Dancing Fleas” by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra (which seemed quite appropriate). Also, the whole flick was shot and edited on my iPhone 4.
I see this as a really cool device for photographers to accept credit card payments in the field. Hopefully it won’t cost that much, but would probably still be worth it if it did
This personal UAV, called the AR Drone from Parrot, is controlled via WiFi using your iPhone or iPod Touch, wifi control begs the question about its range. It also sports two cameras on it, although I suppose their video rather than still (hopefully, HD video).
If I could get something like this and mount a 12 megapixel camera to it, I’d be in heaven. I’m trying to shoot aerial shots for the Brooklyn Botanic Garden for their 2011 calendar and something like this would be great. My guess is is that it’s going to be really expensive and not strong enough to hold more cargo. Still, I can dream, no?
