Hi, here's the list with links to all of the gear! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12rAkmix2gQK8Dnp4rsG21Laf3qkr0eJ3ZWO2M78VOGo/edit?usp=sharing Hope you enjoyed the video and I'm happy to answer your comments on surf photography and photography gear below :)
So much relevant info in a decent length of a video! no unnecessary opinions or trash talk; almost all your choices were justified well. Thank you for a cool interesting gear breakdown video instead of brand bashing or ranting.
Thank you! Yeah definitely no brand bashing here, I think most brands make pretty great gear now, I'm just locked in with Canon haha. Glad you liked it though! More coming in the future.
That was super detailed and a class video Connor. As a professional photographer looking to invest more into my business, this was a great insight into what a seasoned pro has purchased. Great video man!
Thank you! Stoked you liked it! I''ll be doing more gear review sort videos in the future for specific products and less surf photography niche if there's anything you'd like to see, let me know!
@Trimble yeah man, that extension suggestion for the GoPro is genius. I've been tilting my GoPro up a bit to avoid the port in the shot but then obviously it's not lined up with the video. Definitely gonna grab one of those. Also thanks for sharing the cold sore information. Never fun going through one of those but im guilty of poor nutrition and running on nothing but caffeine until im in the ground. Appreciate the transparency!
100%, @@WorkForAvocados stoked those tips could help you out! I suggest picking up a vertical mount for the GoPro as well if you want to shoot horizontal stills and vertical GoPro video for social media content!
@@ConnorTrimble for sure, I just got one but should have went with aluminum, the plastic rusted out. Love the framing so much better vertical. Especially surfing myself with POV
Surprisingly it's all pretty much the same for video, except add a Mavic 3 Cine drone and a 3-5 + 6-9 VND filter. I'm testing different brand ones right now because I'm kind of over Polar Pro at the moment. they definitely have a funky cast for white balance on them with a heavy vignette I don't love. I used to have a DSMC 2 RED Dragon-CF 6k but sold it because I do so much photo + video hybrid work and it's easier to just use one camera than have a $15k paper weight. If I get a major film job I'll probably get a V-Raptor + SALTY surf housing for it. But I am waiting on the Canon r1 and Canon r5 mk ii to come out and am hoping those are good enough to the point where I won't want or need a RED. Plus with Nikon buying RED it puts the company in limbo for how the tech will be used, etc and where the RED Code RAW Patents will be which were set to expire soon I'm pretty sure as well which should allow other camera companies to improve their codec really quickly. This should happen with mirrorless cameras a lot more as well. Likewise, I love having autofocus in the water personally and constantly toggle between manual and auto focus in the water which you can't do with a RED. I rarely use a tripod or ronin, but do have them. I think a more interesting set up would be my office and how I rig that for videos haha. But I'm slammed with client work at the moment and hope to get more of these tech driven videos out next month :)
Thanks for all the info dude. I do dive photography from time to time but I've never done surf photography before and I'm going to give it a go this weekend with some buddies out on the Oregon Coast. Needless to say this video definitely helped bring some things to my attention, specifically the fin leashes and the vasaline. Will be looking to pick those up on my way out to the coast tomorrow. So. thanks!
So generous of you Conner to share your gear and techniques. Will now see many other cameramen with the same in the future… haha. Always been curious why your vids are so rich in color so vivid like your 2023 “Waikiki” and “Paddle Out For Lahaina”. Partly due to Polar Pro or Mav 3 Directors Filters? Maybe record rate or software settings ? Always perfect shadow and highlight detail. 2nd question is about your commercial shooting as you mentioned. Seemed logical you shoot professionally outside your rare youtube uploads so curious what specific type of camera work and type of company do you shoot for? Mahalo🤙🏼
I think there's already been a huge increase since covid and the industry will only become more difficult with AI, so why gate keep this information are my thoughts! 1. Polar Pro filters: these make a huge difference in the color on drone shots 100%. But I also think it's about finding the right angle with limited glare from ocean which comes with practice and also how I edit. 2. Commercial shooting: I do a ton of lifestyle clothing campaigns with clients like Kenny Flowers, Chubbies Shorts, Free Fly, Hurley, O'Neill. I'll do lifestyle adventure travel, usually with drone + water mixed in for say Royal Caribbean, tourism boards or hotels. And I've been doing a lot of water DP stuff this past year as well for various projects, but last week was a documentary, F-One Foiling and Local Motion surf shop shoot. In addition to that I sell stickers + prints in select stores, a little bit online and I also sell stock video footage. But I think with AI, stock video footage will become useless in all honesty.
@@ConnorTrimble Haven’t thought about AI impacting this line of work. Perhaps advertising I guess but not spontaneous documentary (factual) image capture.
@@bwhit716 for sure, I think AI is going to have a massive impact, but it will be slightly delayed until it becomes more common knowledge for everyone to accept it, then utilize it properly.
This is a great video. Only starting to get into the water side of things and that extension pole for gopro is unreal. Its great to know what lenses are most commonly used too. Quick question, do you use auto focus mainly while shooting with 24-105? If so centre point or centre zone etc. Keep up the great videos, very educational 🤟
Stoked you are in to the video! I use single point auto focus and move it right or left from center depending on what composition I want. This is a really easy way to miss shots, but I think when you hit focus, it's the sharpest. I also just have become accustomed to shooting with it because of my portrait work and like the precise control. I'd say 75% of the time I have it right in the center though, especially at Pipeline. A lot of others with use the 9 squares or even face+ eye tracking. It really comes does to personal preference, there's no truly right or wrong way to do it, especially with how good auto focus has gotten.
This is the most comprehensive surf photography gear setup video I've ever seen, very well done and much appreciated useful information! Plus I love how you include sample footage throughout the tutorial as well as the costs, ins and outs, I think you covered everything 🙌🏽🙏🏾
100% defintiely a ton of info haha! Hopefully it helps people though, especially with the cost of it all. and I do fill up the cards pretty fast with the r5 shooting 4k 120 or maximum RAW photos. That's why I bought a 1TB card recently. Last week I was shooing a documentary and shot 1.2TB in a day just filming in water over 5-6 hours swimming at Waimea Bay. To counter this, I have two tower drives at home. 1x 64TB OWC (which I recommend) and a back up G-Raid 96TB that's daisy chained to my OWC drive. Every commercial shoot I do is typically 500gb-4TB on average, so I need to have it all backed up. The memory is honestly the worst part of getting nicer cameras because your storage has to become way bigger and much faster to keep up.
Really thorough coverage Connor, thanks for diving in! I've barely changed my setup over the last 2 years and I definitely dream of saving up for some new toys. Beautiful studio you've got there
Thank you! Honestly I am waiting for the Canon R1 to come out and also for Aquatech's 24-105 f2.8 port to come out, which is in development. But I think it's be a hard time to switch at the moment because the r3 + r5 have been out for a few years and we're patiently waiting on the new upgraded models if you can wait another 6 months haha. Even if you only need/want an r3 or r5, wait for the new stuff and there will be huge price drops!
Yo Connor! Ohh so many goodies in here man, I appreciate you putting in the time to make this. Gear question: Were you wearing a padded vest while shooting pipeline this past Christmas Eve? I saw a filmer pop out of the water wearing what looked like an impact vest under a spring suit -- so i'm curious: 1. if that was indeed you and 2. which vest it was and when you'd recommend wearing one. My initial thought was, Mahalo for the video -- it isn't getting nearly the attention it deserves 🌊🤙
Hi! Appreciate the support first off! I know a lot of people that love the impact vests because they make you float more. This is mainly for in water at Waimea or Jaws in Hawaii for big wave shooters I know. Personally I do NOT do that because if big waves my theory is that I have to dive super deep pretty fast so why would I make myself slower and more buoyant on purpose? I feel like I’d be put in a worse position with the floaty suit vs. being fast
@@ConnorTrimble Makes sense! Navigating rips//current also seems like it would be more difficult in an impact vest. Strangely part of my original comment isn't being shown...oh well I think you got the point. Thanks again.
@@Kyle-Edwards yeah no problem! But as with all of this gear, it's personal preference and you may find something that works for you better and that's not a big deal :)
Great video, I would like to ask, currently I have a Canon 70d, looking to upgrade I take video and pictures, mostly surfing 9land base) and Baseball, which camera would you recommend to go with, I was thinking R6 Mark ii or r5 C, thanks in advance!
I think the r6 is fairly slow for sports photography personally. The r5c is better, or I'd actually recommend the R3 if you're strictly a sports photographer/videographer because of how fast it is and never worrying about the buffer. But if you're 80-90% video then the r5 will do great.
100%, definitely more selective with the shots. But you won't have over heating issues unless you're running slow-mo for more than 2-3 minutes shooting. I've accidentally shot 3 back to back 7 minute clips without it overheating though. I usually have more issues when freediving and running lots of long back to back clips.... But with that being said, in 2 years of using the r5, I've had it stop recording because of overheating 2, maybe 3 times and only gotten the overheating warning probably less than 10x ever. The overheating issues are blown out of proportion in my opinion. But this is just my experience.

@@ConnorTrimble Im having overheating problems with my R5. I like shooting slow-mo and it´s almost impossible.. :( I have to change setting while in water, couldn´t find a solution with the R5.
Hi! Have you updated your firmware on the camera? Also are you using a fast enough memory card? If yes and yes then I’d contact Canon 100%! That’s pretty unheard of. You can run slow-mo for a few minutes without overheating usually and surf clips are typically 15-45seconds tops of real time recording. I have never had mine overheat while shooting surf. I’ve gotten the warning once, maybe twice tops. I’ve only had overheating issues when freediving and letting it run for 5-7 straight when surrounded by sharks
3 месяца назад
@@ConnorTrimble yes and yes... both things. At least I think the card is fast enough: SanDisk 128GB read 1700, write 1200. Do you think it's ok? I was filming in Tahiti and it was impossible to film in 4k in slow motion. Perhaps the problem is having the screen constantly on, I should try the power saving function and have the screen turn off. thanks for the answer.
I just got an aquatech housing and used a product called rain-x on my flat port which seemed to work really well. However after about 90 minutes in the water I noticed I was kind of getting that salty haze despite wiping with a squeege. Similar to a car windscreen left at the beach all day. Any tips on preventing this? Thanks in advance
I will sometimes, but a lot of times I keep it off because I like to use the GoPro underwater more than anything else. Typically I'm shooting at around 40-70 with my 24-105 and the GoPro can get wide underwater barrel shots fast. Those are the ones I've found myself using the most so I think it's easier to not use the GoPro filters. Additionally, the Polar Pro GoPro ND filters can give it a funky white balance, especially underwater I've noticed, so I'd rather have a fast shutter on the GoPro than a ruined shot. But this is something I've been playing with a lot this past month. I haven't come to a full conclusion on what's best so I didn't include it. I have 2x GoPro 12s and a way to mount both, I should leave the housing at home and do a side by side with matching settings + one with ND8 and one without. I'd love to see which does better with no water spots too. Right now I feel like the OG GoPro clear case is better with water spots and easier to keep clean but it could just be situational.
Thank for your feed back ! I always have this hesitation between photo or video when I’m in water with my case. So maybe, buy a GoPro can be resolve my permanent hesitation 🤷🏻♂️
100%, you can also turn the new GoPro 12's on interval photo so it takes a photo every .5 seconds if you're running video and you want it to capture stills. Additionally, you can turn on voice activation and say GoPro take photo and have it on say 30 photos over 3 seconds while the surfer/wave is around peak action while filming tight. @@Landronescape
