    Thank you so much for such an epic video !!! It's a shame that it's so short. Why such a simple tent for such very difficult Icelandic weather? Can you give more information, what equipment was and let me see more photos and videos? I was on this route on foot in 2019 and I understand how difficult it is to walk there with a bike!

    • @markwienands
      @markwienands  3 года назад +1

      The tent is indeed very simple, but of my it's soooo spacious! I can do everything inside of it including cooking and dug a hole to do a toilet once. The whole thing weighed something like less than a kilogram.
      I used extra thick carbon tent poles to witness the powerful winds. The material is very sensitive so any rubbing between the fabric against the rocks will tear it.
      I don't have access to my photo albums at the moment :(

    Hi Mark, beautiful film! Amazing editng too. I'm doing a similar thing next weekend, doing the Iceland Divide. In regards to your setup, how much was the total weight of your kit? Also, how did you manage the power supplies for the camera? I'm taking a Sony A7S III with 5 batteries and four 26800mAh battery packs.

    • @markwienands
      @markwienands  Год назад

      Wow that is great :)) Unfortunately I don't have the number for the total weight.
      I had a Anker 21W Solar Panel, since I was there during summer, sun power was practically unlimited. I carried only two Sony A7 III batteries (without a charger mount). I charge direct into the camera via a USB port. That's one of the advantages of this Sony A7 being able to charge directly via the USB.
      The Drone I had 3 batteries total, unfortunately the only way was to charge in towns or at camp sites. I was extremely tight with flight durations.
      Good luck in your travels! Wow I wish to be there again.

    This is epic, but how did you manage to keep your Drone and camera charged?

    • @markwienands
      @markwienands  6 лет назад +7

      Keeping the camera / drone remote / iPhone fully charged was easy. I used the Anker 20W solar panels paired with a 13000 mah powerbank and being summer in Iceland you get almost 24 hours of daylight. 20 hours realistically of chargeable sunlight for the panels. In direct sunlight during sunny day, pretty much everything gets fully charged in 5 - 6 hours. I couldn't be happier with my Anger 20W solar panels weighing only at 420g or so.
      Oh and my Sony A7iii mirrorless camera is USB rechargeable.
      Now for my Mavic Air drone I brought 4 batteries in total, each having a realistic flight time of 10-12 minutes max before being left with a 20% - 30% charge. You don't want to completely deplete the drone batteries otherwise it's bad for them. Throughout the trip I came across powered campsites and mountain huts, that's when I get the opportunity to top up the batteries. So I had to really plan for the shots and make the most out of it. At one point during my trip there were 8 days apart between a power outlet, so I only had about 40 mins of flight time during those 8 days. Not much to work with.
      For future trips I might look for a powerbank that can output a high DC charge that works with the Mavic Air batteries.
