The maximum capture rate of the 65R is 3 FPS. The charts below show how the camera performs given different altitude, flight speed, and overlap settings.
Fly mid-day when the sun is highest in the sky (solar noon) to reduce shadowing effects. Solar noon will change depending on global location and time of year.
Flying with uniform lighting conditions is optimal for 65R. This means no clouds (clear), mostly clear, or completely overcast.
Flying in foggy, rainy, or snowy conditions is not advised.
