If you get that combo the odds are you are in Hollywood or New York. 
Maybe less so these days than before... but I hope you get my point.
A fresh perspective is fresh. I love it, and it is perfect
Advances in tech, software, smartphone lens tech, etc are wunnerful.
Now, quadrotors. Hot damn, what. is. next?
It's the main reason why movies are so much better than ever.

There are 2 Phantom models, I have the regular.
Vision $1199, comes with integrated camera, and you can see what the camera sees and control it using a tablet
Regular $869, no camera you have to buy a gopro hero3 ($325), but the copter includes a 2-axis gimbal which stabilizes the camera and keeps it lever as the copter moves around. I think it takes better video than the vision, and you have a gopro you can use for other things. You can add the functionality to see what the camera sees but it is not as plug and play as the Vision.
With both copters you can also fly them from an ipad and program in waypoints and altitudes and create a route for it to follow.
There are lots of videos on DJI's website explaining everything.

As noted below, they are around $1K, but you can find the version 1 for a lot cheaper. There are a lot of other options out there as well, such as the Blade 350 QX. These are all pretty basic entry level packages, but what's nice is they essentially come ready to go out of the box. The bigger quad, hex, and octocopters can get very pricey with all the bells and whistles on them when setup for top shelf cinematography and FPV... Like around $20k without cameras.

One of the best videos and editing I have seen. Thank for sharing it with us!
Without the music, then what would be the point of the editing? That "jerky" editing is in tune with the music, without the music then it is in fact just "jerky" editing.
Some editors make it look easy, but believe me if you haven't tried it yourself this kind of editing is far from easy and takes hours.

A fresh perspective is fresh. I love it, and it is perfect for boating.
