QUADCOPTER HOME VIDEOS

These shots are pretty good, but the music tends to set the beauty in the shot.  It would be nice to have a mix of features, like still shots, time-lapse, and more.

The price for the DJI Phantom 2 Vision with extra battery is a little over $1,200.  Bill Myers suggests another option--a GoPro 4, a 3 axis stabilizer, and a long pole instead.  

This shot is pretty good, but the music by Enya is what distinguishes it in my opinion.
 

These two guys show off their equipment, which is a GoPro camera, but they don't specify which model.  Possibly the GoPro4.

WIN A BIDDING WAR


WRITE A LOVE LETTER

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a good letter can be worth a few thousand bucks.

This is what Capucine Bourcart and her husband Laurent Corbel found when they looked at a house on West 126th Street in Harlem with their broker, Fabienne Lecole, previously of The Corcoran Group, now with William Raveis.

“We wanted to have something that already had a history, not something brand new,” says Bourcart. So she decided to say as much in a letter to the seller, explaining her romance with Harlem, and the fact that — as an artist — she was active in the Harlem Art Walking Tour.

“Too often we forget that it’s a very emotional moment when people sell their home,” says Kathy Braddock, managing director of William Raveis. “It’s important to hand it to someone who appreciates it.”
