Next Great Thing in Photography

I think that the next big thing that photography needs is a compact underwater drone. So I would combine and underwater camera and a drone together. The purpose of the underwater video camera is so that instead of just taking pictures underwater you could take videos of people swimming and sea life in action. I would make it small and compact so it's easy to travel with and you can buy it in stores. Making it smaller with also make it easier to use in everday life or on special occasions. It would also make it less likely to sink because it would be light weight. The drone part of it comes in so that if you want to take a video of yourself swimming you don't have to hold the camera. You can just direct the drone with an underwater remote that has a strap on it so you don't lose it.

I feel that this invention would be really useful in the world of photography or just for everyday use. Like if you're going on a family vacation to the beach or ocean for example. You would be able to record yourself scuba diving without having to hold the camera. This invention can also open up a whole new world of different types of professional shots. For example, a bikini line can show off and advertise their swimsuits in action because the underwater video camera can record them swimming and take cool underwater shots can be taken instead of a picture of a model in a swimsuit in a random room or on a beach. I also think that this invention would be cool for capturing underwater experimentation.

Next, I would add a lot of features that make it more practical and enjoyable to use. To prevent loss, I would have an emergency button programmed into the remote that connects to the camera so if you lose track of it, you can press the button on the remote and the camera will come swimming back. Or just have the drone stay relatively close to where the remote is when the it isn't being directed. I would have to make it able to substain high water pressures so that if you do dive deep into the water, it will continue to work. Then I would add different types of lenses, like fish eye, which would be very fitting. Also making the lenses high quality and having the ability to auto focus would be really important because there's no point in taking an underwater picture for it to turn out fuzzy or unfocosed. The next thing I would add to it is an attached light on top of it so you can take underwater pictures in at night because, obviously, the ocean doesn't have inserted lights itself. Lastly, I would make the battery be able to last a full 12 hour day, which would mean it would have to charger overnight to be fully charged. But, it means you can record all day without having to stop what your doing to go charge it. Then, you'll have a full day of footage that you can look back on forever.
