CHASING makes underwater drone photography smaller and simpler with the blue Dory Explore Treasure-Hunting Underwater Drone, a compact remotely operated vehicle that transmits photos and video from as deep as 49' and is controlled by a smartphone or tablet. The Dory connects to a small floating Wi-Fi buoy with a 49' tether and streams live 720p video from beneath the surface, to your device and to social media if you like. It snaps 2MP photos and records 1920 x 1080 video at 30 fps, enhanced by a color-restore algorithm for dynamic imagery, and its wide f/1.6 lens captures the scenery and the action even in low-light environments. Two 250-lumen LED lights illuminate the scene, with color temperature of 4500k to 5000k.
Drone movements are made using the Bluetooth remote controller which has joysticks and a smartphone mount, allowing you to easily view drone footage. You can lock in the angle to look down at the bottom or up at the surface, and to hover at a depth of your choosing. Dual Play Mode allows one person to control the drone's movements while another controls the photography.
