I recommend traveling to shoot the most cost-effective equipment scheme to avoid falling into the pit.

As a travel enthusiast, if you want to record the beautiful scenery you see during your travel, or if you travel from the media, a mobile phone is usually enough. If you are a master of image quality, buying a mobile phone with good image quality can meet your shooting needs. For special shooting needs, such as distant scenes or big scenes around, mobile phones can't achieve that effect, but aerial drones can. I think it would be perfect to have these two devices. There is no need to buy so many devices, such as sports cameras, pocket cameras and corresponding accessories. In short, the more economical, the more convenient and the lighter the better. Don't be fooled by advertisements. The equipment you bought often eats ash and is not applicable. You are worried about losing it and wasting your money.

The use of mobile phones is mainly based on close-range shooting, and long-distance shooting is given to drones. Mobile telephoto shooting itself is one of its weaknesses. At present, the best physical zoom can only be 10 times, mostly 3 to 5 times. The so-called zoom above 120 times is digital zoom, and its effect is basically not available. Moreover, these mobile phones are basically the flagship mobile phones of major manufacturers, and the price is also very expensive. It is also good to choose a flagship mobile phone at close range. As long as the ultra-wide angle and wide angle effect of the mobile phone are good.

If you are looking for short-range and long-term effects, then I suggest buying a mobile phone and an economical drone. I have told you a lot about the choice of mobile phone. I will focus on the purchase of aerial drones. Aerial drones are used as flying cameras. It solves the problems that mobile phone photography can't solve in specific scenes, such as long-distance shooting, and the telephoto mobile phone photography effect is never as close as that of drones. First, the telephoto of mobile phones is limited by performance, and it is difficult to achieve high-power physical zoom. Second, long-distance shooting is easily affected by dust in the air, which affects the clarity. Third, there is only one angle for telephoto shooting. When the drone flies in close range, it can adjust the up, down, left and right directions of the drone and shoot from different angles. If you want to shoot a big scene, it is difficult to achieve this effect because the height of the mobile phone is limited. Aerial drones can be easily realized. From God's point of view, this is very effective. However, the biggest risk of UAV is that it is easy to blow up because of improper operation or no flight experience, and flight training is needed. I have been doing aerial photography for several years. My experience is that drones are generally safer to fly in the visual range. Don't take aerial photos behind invisible mountains or buildings in the city, and don't take aerial photos at an invisible distance. I remember that when I saw the beautiful scenery, I forgot the distance or whether there was an object blocking the signal of the drone, which caused the drone to lose contact. After a period of training, I think everyone can skillfully operate drone aerial photography.

If we are traveling, the UAV can take the place of the sports camera for car shooting, and its mechanical pan-tilt will always have better anti-shake effect than the sports camera. If the drone is placed inside or outside the car, it must be fixed to ensure safe shooting. The fixation is firm and the shooting effect is really invincible.

In short, if you are traveling or doing self-media, I recommend mobile phone shooting equipment. If you want to do better, add a drone. There is no need to purchase other equipment. It is also a waste, which wastes money and is inconvenient to carry.
