That looks fabulous. I didn't notice much rolling shutter (but that may be due to recompression and reduced resolution.)

@jambredz, people have said that the purchase of the helicopter isn't the problem (a couple grand) its learning to fly a helicopter without destroying it, your camera and the surroundings.

lol...i can imagine. but i'd be flying with some kinda weight (equal to the camera) and practise till i'm versed in it before putting my cam on that lol

 

[stip]

yeah, but I still guess there's a difference practicing with a weight and doing the actual shot with a camera AND ALL THOSE LADIES IN THE FRAME!
