In this episode I answer questions from two voice mail messages I received this week from a listener named Patrick. He asks:

Is aerial photography with drones a viable business opportunity for skilled filmmakers and photographers? Is the DJI Phantom so easy to fly that businesses can do it themselves, thus negating the need for professional videographers and photographers? 

Also in this episode I discuss DJI's announcement of the Phantom 3. It looks to be an amazing aerial photography system with 4K video (with live streaming from the Phantom directly to YouTube), 12MB still photography, built in video editing, and the improved DJI Pilot app.
