There's nothing I can do at the system level to stop them from being posted, but I am happy to remove them if they appear! Just report them or DM me

Still waiting on the DNG fix that will make my drones work with it though :\

just to do things like reading rooftop unit dataplates

Most cheap drones won't be able to do this, at least not in real time. They tend to have 24mm equivalent focal length, which doesn't lend itself well to close-ups. In theory you could zoom in on a PC, but that involves getting the photos off of the drone, which is hard to to on the fly.

You'll want a camera with longer focal length if you want to be able to scout these things in real time. But honestly, I'm not sure even a 70mm would give you that, and by that point, you're no longer in cheap territory.

You might be able to get your hands on a second have Mavic 3 Pro, which has a 166mm lens on it, but even second hand and one generation behind, it's still not cheap

The Twelve Apostles are much more impressive than Pancake Rocks IMO

That was my immediate question too!

Come on, pancake rocks though!

I imagine it's a little different in photography circles since there's probably no good way to build new lenses with solder,

Those photographers shoot film, and develop their own images in a hastily thrown together darkroom in their home :)

That's a lot of words to say "Things were better when I was young".

It's a clickbait article, showing the same distress at younger generations that every generation before has complained about

The airport "Marriott" in Santiago de Chile. That place was a hole, and a tiny one at that.
