We figured, if you’re going to have a YouTube channel (subscribe here), you’ll need a drone. It’s 2019 after all! So that’s what we did. We got a drone.
And it’s been fun!
At least I think so, and more importantly, I hope you’ll really enjoy the new video quality we’ll be able to create for you.
New DJI Drone – Mavic 2 Zoom
And yes…we I crashed it into a tree within the first month!
But it didn’t break. I’ve heard DJI drones were amazing, but now I know. It just has a few scratches and a little crack on the bottom of one of the legs. If the trees weren’t risky enough, we decided to test our skills over the water.
Flying the Mavic 2 Zoom of the water was so nerve-racking! After a few minutes, though, it’s just like anything else.
Sony a6400
Speaking of video quality, we also purchased a new camera…and rather than doing the boring YouTube camera review, we decided to compare our new camera – the Sony a6400 – to our old phone cameras.
It’s not that our phones, the Pixel 2, didn’t create good videos. It’s just that they were only so good. And if we’re going to make it to the $1.5 million mark, we can’t skimp on the quality.
Speaking of $1.5 million, you can help us reach our goal by making your next purchase on Amazon from here. It’s no extra cost to you, and Amazon gives us a few pennies.

Your Turn
If you read this far, you might just get the first invitation to a sunset cruise on our sailboat…thanks for being a real friend.
What did you think about the drone shots? How about the fake whiskey shots in the New Camera video? Leave us a comment.
Cheers, Matt.
