Just playing about with different height angles and views. Bit slow at the start.
A combination of whats good for golf and good for turf.

Not bad.

What drone?

What ever height you had it at on the 2nd shot on 7 (10-20ft?) is the sweet spot. The higher stuff is pretty, but really is of no value to the golfer.

Motion tracking some distance markers/graphics would add a nice touch to give it scale and perspective.

Hi Marc thanks for your comments. Agree about the 2nd shot on 7 being the optimum height ie 15 feet.

Adrian,


The height of the camera does seem pretty vital.


Did you experiment with the height of the drone/camera during the filming process?


Very high isn't too bad, as it gives a good overview, but at middle height curvature seems to be more involved and a hole looks like it runs along the top of a spine/ridge. There is some footage at head height, and head height does vary, but I'd be interested to see sample holes just filmed at head height.
