17:56 Your camera bag just got smarter, and that thumbnail is absolutely on point! M2 and K2 for the win-saving time and dodging vignetting like a pro.
Love your channel. You’re the one who motivated me to get into photography more seriously. It’s always been something I’ve loved but watching your vids inspired me to do more with it. Upgraded to the a7RV last month and I love it! Hope you have a great 2025.
Just binging on all your videos. Brought out the old D5000. Picked up your lightroom presets in hopes of winning one of those packages and learning how to edit myself. Camera tech and editing software has come a long way. Love the thumbnail!
"the quality on this camera is unmatched" I thought the exact same thing about cameras of this caliber until someone sent me files from a fuji gfx100 II, files are fucking massive though you pretty much have to upgrade all of your accessories to accommodate for write speed and storage size
if your looking for a new camera bag, id say go for the shimoda explore v2 series. BEST camera bag ive ever used. Comfortable, functional and it looks great
ever since your first video with the 105 1.4 i have forever gone back and looked at this lens - forever seeming out of reach, but forever something i'm needing, something i'm longing for ✌
It's funny because I’ve just started photography two hours ago, and I have absolutely zero budget. So, I’m using a Canon 60D that I got from my dad. And it’s funny because you’re saying your A7SIV is indestructible and has an absurd number of shutter actuations. But my 60D is close to 100,000 shutter actuations and is still in absolutely incredible condition. 🤣 Even though, like your A7S4, it’s been in water. It’s honestly amazing to see that these older cameras can hold up, in terms of durability. I know this comment might sound a bit salty, but I just had to share because it was funny. 🙃
So little question I see you praise a lot of great lenses and everything but what would you recommend for a beginner photographer who isn’t ready to spend a lot of money just yet? Basically what’s the best beginner gear for a photographer or best budget gear?
A9III is 24.6mp man. You’ll well see the difference between the R series. I loved the burst rate and pre capture but that global shutter low light isn’t there yet. I am getting to play with the A1mkII on the 2nd January in work. Cannot wait!
The last backpack you will ever buy. Shimoda Explore v2 35L They also make a 30L and a 25L. I’ve got the large camera core in my bag and the amount of lenses and gear you can store is insane. Camera bag opens from the rear so it doesn’t get dirty. Fit so much gear your back will hurt 😂.
1:15 THAT'S WHAT THE STRAP IS FOR! For the past 7 months I've been carrying around my Tripod, just holding it. Had no idea that's what that was for lmao.
Dawg … I bought the a7rIV based on one of your videos… I shoot Combat sports 😂 maybe I should’ve an a9 but I’m super happy with the results the a7rIV produces
Hey Mike! Do you shoot your POV's in Apple Log? The quality of your POV videos is insane and I feel like without Log I can't even become close to matching the quality at night. 15PM user btw
Hello, My name is Jude, and I am trying to learn Car photography, I have watched the large majority of your videos and was wondering if you could make a video explaining your journey into photography and maybe some tips for up and coming photographers?? Once again, fuckin love your vids!!
Best Thumbnail i've seen all year
😂
Now that is a thumbnail.
Your ass must be new here
made me click on the video lol
17:56 Your camera bag just got smarter, and that thumbnail is absolutely on point! M2 and K2 for the win-saving time and dodging vignetting like a pro.
Super happy you started the video with the greeting we've all come to know and love. Wishing you all the best in 2025.
1/3 Million shots is insane
until you do photoshoot for events, those are rookie numbers
Not really event photographers will do that in 6 months easy
Insane? Far from it. Try timelapse photography, you'll get 1/3 million shots in no time.
not the thumbnail 😭
Love to see the Sigma 105 getting some love. Best lens I've ever used
Been waiting for this 🎉
Hell yeah dude! Enjoy 2025 mate.

1000% the 105mm is my most used lens. It's an absolute banger (and great talking point) I hardly take it off my a7iv
Yeah you oughta have a look at shimoda bags. They would suit your shooting style so well and they’re so high quality

This is one super smart video mate. Did all your marketing in just one video 😂🎉

I love my Sigma 105 to mate. Such a beautiful lens.
F-stop bags - absolute kick-ass 👌🏼

Great video and sick tune at the end! Hadn't noticed that before.
Entré en el video unica y exclusivamente para decirte que la miniatura del video me ha flipado, esta brutal!!!
Not gonna lie, I clicked because of the thumbnail

Coolest Camera bag out there
Me: ah you love all those a9iii features, sounds like you might be joining after an a1ii
NB: so that's why I'm looking at the a1ii
ME: figures!
1 of the sickest thumbnails forsure
Great video mate!
Love these videos 👌 with you 💯 on the tripod !! Latches are WAYYYYYYYY BETTER & faster 👍

Bag wise i can also recommend the Ulanzi BP10, certainly an amazing bag
Been watching your vids a lot lately
6:50 Love the Wolf of Wall Street reference 😂
The last backpack you will ever buy.
Shimoda Explore v2 35L
They also make a 30L and a 25L.

Mad respect for the thumbnail 🫡
That thumbnail is dope😂😂
Brother I saw the thumbnail had to see what you were cooking up. Just Subscribed
Still shooting on a Canon 5dsr. Love the 50mp sensor on it. Amazing for car photography. Ram images come out unreal
I don't subscribe to you (yet?), don't think I ever seen your videos but... GOATED Thumbnail.
I didn't need to hear about my "old" 24-70 like this...
Looking forward to this all year 🤣
Nice video mate 👌👌
coolest thumbnail ive ever seen on youtube
Hey, there is no word about a competition for prizes. Only if someone buys the lut packs.
the catch for the contract who gives away 3000$
1:15 THAT'S WHAT THE STRAP IS FOR!
For the past 7 months I've been carrying around my Tripod, just holding it. Had no idea that's what that was for lmao.
This channel is so badass and so inspirational. Thanks mate and have a great new year.
Was waiting for this
Agree with the latch and to add on is the swivel kind overtime will fail to tighten properly
I live in the US. Is the giveaway available to us abroad?
Sickest thumbnail !
Ima click to watch for audience retention to help out
Damn bro thats the best thumbnail ive seen in a while
Liked and subscribed for the creative thumbnail.
Legendary
Dawg … I bought the a7rIV based on one of your videos… I shoot Combat sports 😂 maybe I should’ve an a9 but I’m super happy with the results the a7rIV produces
Let’s go for 2025!!! Starting my RUclips Journey! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Hey Mike! Do you shoot your POV's in Apple Log? The quality of your POV videos is insane and I feel like without Log I can't even become close to matching the quality at night. 15PM user btw
the way it opens is the reason i got a McKinnon Camera Pack 25L just for the way it opens backside out
10/10 on the thumbnail
Check out the Lowepro ProTactic BP 450 AW II - it addresses most of your back pack concerns with the current one.
I watched because of the thumbnail. Go on ya!
watched for years and did the giveaway just now. I'm not. preset guy but had to buy to see if I have a chance. fuck it we ball! cheers
I'm here because of the thumbnail, good job lol
Best thumbnail
14:56 thats actually crazy 💀
Could I use your presets at luts for a RUclips video in CapCut? Loved the video man!
G'day, mate. Curious to the 70 200 Sigma to Sony. How do you rate the autofocus? Similar speeds? Thanks.
Hey Mike, do you plan to go back to Europe during 2025 ?
Would you say its worth getting the RC remote for the DJI Neo?
well im stuck with a sony F1.8 50mm last 2 years lol wish i could get the 105mm or the 200/600mm
Sigma 105 is the best lens I’ve ever owned by far
For filming the POV videos, is it your personal phone? Or is it another phone you've bought for the sole purpose of recording POVs?
time to upgrade the a7s3 to a zve1 , same camera but smaller perfect upgrade to help with space in bag.
that small of a size difference is not worth the upgrade...
Hell yeah
will you test new viltrox 135 mm f1.8??
Ah yes the secret A9III with 33mp sensor, I want one
Had to click in and just say, FCKING EPIC Thumbnail picture brother!
Hello, My name is Jude, and I am trying to learn Car photography, I have watched the large majority of your videos and was wondering if you could make a video explaining your journey into photography and maybe some tips for up and coming photographers?? Once again, fuckin love your vids!!
hi . can you do a 28-45 f1.8 len review ? many thanks ?
how can someone enter the competition please

im dreaming for 2025 mike twitch streaming
I’m so glad someone else hates those twisty tripod legs from hell. Clippy all the way
:O not using safari on mac !?
why no one talking bout the "I Love Nikon" hard drive at 14:05
I legit thought the mic was a tie for a few seconds 😂
I'm curious whats the reason behind your channel name whats the backstory behind it?
Wow that thumbnail@
They need to upgrade the 105mm 😅
Spotify plss
my macbook air can barely run lightroom with 250 photo catalogue without wanting to die
Never been this early before
Came to like for the thumbnail
I'm editing some videos for a client and Premier Pro works better when I watch your video.
bro every time i wach this guy i want to swich to sony
Sony A7RV is cheaper and super comparable to the A1 something to look into. Can get a A7RV and a G-Master for the same price
nice
what about sanddisk sd cards
A7R iv "a bit of a dated camera" 😭I'm happy I finally upgraded from the A7 ii to the A7 iii
bruh all i have is a lumix s5ii and 2 lenses in my jansport. no case. just raw dogging it.
Get a Wandrd bag and call it a day.
