SkyOptics Ltd Information

We specialise in aerial photography, creating beautiful, artistic images required for print and screen, razor sharp promotional imaging or cinematic aerial filming. We also provide ground filming to compliment the aerial work using high end, stabilised gimbals. We use the incredible Full Frame 42 MP Sony a7R3 with Sony & Zeiss lenses on Movi and Gremsy gimbals, lifted using both our bespoke built aircraft and our FreeFly Alta 6, which can carry cameras such as Alexa Mini, Sony FS5 or Panasonic EVA. Our aircraft are fitted with HD digital video downlinks, so the camera feed can be controlled and viewed directly on the ground, without interference or lag on Atomos monitors. We are one of only 1% of UK operators granted an Operating Safety Case by the CAA – reducing our required safety distances due to our technical and procedural systems, meaning we can operate safely and legally in tighter, more congested areas needing just 10m from the public to launch. If you’re thinking of using aerial imagery, please get in touch for a chat, we’re always happy to talk drones!
