The course was excellent, and i had learned a lot, but a few things were missing, like Panorama shots and hyper-lapse

Wow! Master of your field of expertise. Information is not so simple as to feel insulting, and not so technical that it is over my head. This is an excellent example for how all instructional courses should be given. I am easily able to take what you provide and immediately put it to use with my own equipment, and being a hands-on type of learner, your instructions stick with me.

Overall, you’re an amazing person, and a great teacher but nevertheless very basic material and when I pay to get knowledge, I expect to get professional and precise over the basic knowledge that I can get by investigating the applications and the drone a little . There is no hate in this comment, just a point of view as a student thank you very much

It's a very good course to get started in drone photography. Dale communicates his knowledge clearly.

Admittedly, I have twenty years of experience using digital cameras, including a few college Photography classes, so the course so far is too basic. Even so, some of the things this instructor says are questionable. Also, my drone doesn't have these controls. I don't know which drone would. I was hoping for more about the unique considerations that are necessary in drone photography.

Very informative course. However more suited for beginners. Someone who doesn't have a ton of photography knowledge and someone who wants to get into flying drones. For someone who already understands the basic Photography Principles and editing in Lightroom, I was hoping for more in the field drone flying tutorials. Would still recommend this course for beginners.

Reminded me of all those important 'rules' I learnt 40 years ago in school photography to make sure I bring them into my drone photograpy. Would have liked some detail on drone videography, but maybe that's a different course. Thanks.

I've had a drone for over a year now and I fly around my property but want to beable to go other places but wasn't sure on proper settings for photos, it's a little different but not really from photographing with my camera but this is very helpful on my settings i need for nature which includes waterfalls

I Like the course. Unforetunately I do not have the HDR option on my Drone, DJI Mini Pro 3, only the AEB option. Using it very often and love the photo's. Thank you for all the advice.

The instructor is very unfamiliar with the subject matter of exposure and uses vague, subjective terminology to define common terms. Very disappointing
