Elevating Club Marketing with Next‑Generation Drone Technology
At Capstone Hospitality, we pride ourselves on staying at the leading edge of technology to showcase private clubs in their best light. Recently we made a significant upgrade to our aerial‑photography toolkit: moving from the DJI Mavic 3 Pro to the new Mavic 4 Pro. This change wasn’t just about having the newest gadget-it was a strategic decision to provide our partner clubs with richer, more immersive content.
Why upgrade?
The DJI Mavic 4 Pro represents a leap forward in drone imaging. Its primary camera uses a 100‑megapixel 4/3‑inch CMOS sensor coupled with a variable aperture lens. This is a drastic improvement over the Mavic 3 Pro's 48‑megapixel sensor, allowing us to capture detail‑rich still photos and deliver ultra‑high‑resolution images of your course and facilities. The Mavic 4 Pro also records up to 6K video at 60 frames per second, giving us cinematic footage that translates beautifully across large displays and digital platforms. In practice, these capabilities mean:
Sharper photographs: 100 MP photos reveal subtleties in course landscaping and clubhouse architecture that were previously difficult to capture.
Cinematic video: 6K/60 fps footage provides smoother motion and greater flexibility for post‑production editing.
Better dynamic range: The larger sensor and improved optics handle high‑contrast scenes-like early‑morning fairways and bright skies-without losing detail.
Delivering top‑quality content
Our investment in the Mavic 4 Pro is part of our broader commitment to continuous improvement. By integrating cutting‑edge equipment with our creative expertise, we ensure that every piece of content we produce reflects the prestige and beauty of your club. The new drone offers:
Greater flexibility in framing: Its advanced gimbal allows a wider range of camera angles, enabling sweeping course panoramas and dynamic shots of golfers in action.
Improved flight performance: Extended flight time lets us capture more footage in a single session, while omnidirectional obstacle sensing adds extra safety during complex shots.
High‑resolution stills for print and digital: The 100 MP files are perfect for high‑quality print materials, website banners, and social media posts.
Visual showcases
We’ve already begun using the Mavic 4 Pro to document courses and events. Below are suggested spots to include some of the fantastic imagery and video we’ve produced:
Hero image of your course: A full‑width banner shot taken at sunrise, capturing the rolling fairways and clubhouse silhouette.
Aerial flyover video: Individual clips showing a bird’s‑eye view of your signature course-perfect for demonstrating course layout and natural beauty.
Feature gallery: A trio of high‑resolution photos highlighting the clubhouse exterior, practice facilities, and a recent event or tournament.
Behind‑the‑scenes clip: A brief video of our crew setting up and piloting the Mavic 4 Pro, underscoring the care we take on every shoot.
Our promise
Upgrading to the Mavic 4 Pro is more than a technical improvement; it’s a reflection of our dedication to providing top‑notch, high‑quality content for your club. From lush fairways to elegant banquet halls, we are now equipped to capture every detail with unprecedented clarity. As part of our ongoing commitment to excellence, we’ll continue to invest in the tools and techniques that ensure your club stands out from the competition.
