　A drone that can fly around the sky freely and shoot images like a bird's eyes.There is also a special corner at electronics retailers, and the ease of handling it is attractive.However, it is not possible to fly freely in the city, but depending on how it is used, it may be a police.I found a place where I could fly in the suburbs, but many people always have the same video of rut in the same video.Introducing the "how to use a drone that makes a difference" discovered by a newspaper company photographer.

Review the flight rules

　First of all, it's easy to review the rules for flying drones.

　The Aviation Law stipulates that uninhabited aircraft with a total weight of over 200 grams is available around the airport, 150 meters above the ground, or over the artificial intensive area (DID).By the way, in order to obtain this permission, it is necessary to proficiency in a certain flight history (at least 10 hours) and maneuvering skills.

　In addition, there are rules such as flying the aircraft from sunrise to sunset as long as it can be monitored with the naked eye, and does not fly over the area where people are gathered at the event, so it is necessary to confirm.

There is no place to fly

　Most urban areas such as Tokyo and Osaka are included in the DID, and even if you are in your home garden, you cannot freely fly drones.You can check the map provided by the Geographical Survey Institute to see if the place where you are trying to fly corresponds to the area around the airport or DID.

　Even if you have a flight permission in the city, flying a drone across public roads may also be involved in the Road Traffic Law.This is because takeoff and landing on the road, of course, hinders traffic when dropped.Talk to the police station in advance.

First of all, a suburban practice area is recommended

　I want to enjoy a drone as a hobby!What I would like to recommend is a drone practice area in the suburbs (= areas that are not population intensive areas).There is also a practice area using the site of the accommodation facility in the mountains and the baseball stadium ground.Since the site is wide and there are few obstacles, it is convenient to practice basic.I think you can enjoy the drone comfortably because you can fly freely in nature.

　On the other hand, it seems that the number of indoor practice areas that utilize warehouses and the like are increasing in the city.The room surrounded by walls and ceilings may feel a little narrow, but there are advantages such as good access, short use, and not affected by the weather.

Take a magnificent nature

　If you learn a certain level of technology at the practice area, you will want to take different things.However, as mentioned above, it is almost impossible to fly drones in urban areas without permission.

　Then what should we do.You have no choice but to search for subjects in the suburbs that are not in the population concentrated area.It seems that you can fly a drone at ease in nature such as mountains, rivers, lakes and sea.

　It is important to be aware that the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism needs permission, asking the owners and administrators of the land to fly the drone for permission.This is to be prepared for an accident or a problem with the land owner.

　The Asahi Shimbun always gets this permission when interviewing with a drone.For example, when shooting a tea plantation in Wazu -cho, Kyoto, which is a production area of Uji tea, the owners of the fields are different.At this time, we were able to obtain the overall permission from the mayor of the district through the person in charge of the government office.

Check the rules firmly!

　There is also a pitfall in a surprising place.In May 2017, a male employee sent documents to the Nara Prefectural Police in May 2017, allegedly flying a drone at Odaigahara, which spans the border of Nara and Mie prefectures.)

　If you fly a drone from a cliff, even if there is no problem from the takeoff point, if you fly over the cliff, the altitude from the surface may exceed 150 meters at a stretch.

　Check the rules of the Aviation Law carefully, and if it is difficult to shoot with a drone, try to combine a video taken with a normal camera.

About shooting techniques

　Let's think about video shooting techniques.If you touch the drone for the first time, it tends to be a flashy movement.However, from the viewer of the video, I think that the image of the camera facing and facing here is tired.

　The angle of the camera does not move, and it is dedicated to simple movements such as forward, retreat, horizontal movement, rise and descent.Cutting such images a few more, wouldn't it actually be easier to see and attractive images?

　Another trick is to take the picture of the up, the middle view (medium view), and the long paintings (whole view).Then you can change the edited video.

Thorough safety monitoring!

　Finally, let's consider safety monitoring to avoid accidents.

　You must definitely avoid drones crashing and injuring people or damaging buildings such as cultural properties.To do so, I think it is good to go to a drone aerial photo with at least two people.This is because you can check if there are people around you, or check the positional relationship between the drone and the obstacle from a different angle from the pilot.

　Also, if the wind speed exceeds 5 meters every second, it will be difficult to manipulate the drone safely.Be sure to bring the wind speedometer and check the strength of the wind at the flight location.It is also important to make a decision not to fly after seeing the situation in order to avoid accidents.

　How was it.If you want to fly a drone from now on, let's go to the practice area once.You will surely be surprised to be able to take a video like a bird's eyes than you think.

　If you want to enjoy more drones than now, check where you can fly on the Aviation Law and the Geographical Survey Institute and look for a place.Don't forget to get permission from the land owner.Even in the same place as usual, if you change the season and time zones, or change the way you skip the drone, you will surely take a new video.
