  • Wrapped up the first backpacking trip of the year a couple of weeks ago. Had a blast getting back out on the trail with my Mamiya 7ii and came away with some images I'm pretty happy with. Cheers.

    Keep making these solo trip videos, thanks Brae. Some nice shots as usual. Question, what was your longest solo trip and what is your opinion about solo trips (with photography as main focus). I did already some solo photo trips a few times and got one planned in the near future. I guess most people wouldn't understand or ask isn't it boring to go out alone?

    • @BraeHunziker
      @BraeHunziker  Месяц назад

      Thank you! As far as solo backpacking, I usually always just do one night. My pack weight is pretty heavy with all of the camera gear and I usually don't want to pack two night's worth of food with me on these trips. It usually isn't boring to me because I have something to do (photography) while I am up there. But I can imagine that if you are just going on a backpacking trip for the sake of backpacking, that more than a couple nights would start to get a bit lonely if you were by yourself. Cheers!

    I am so fucking envious of those landscapes. All that pine tree covered land is amazing to me! Here where I live in Norway, pine forests are tiny and surrounded by much uglier forests of other less nice looking trees. Additionally those small pine forests have started disappearing because people with money want more money so they cut them down and sell the lumber. The landscapes in this video are the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen!

    • @kristoffergo6294
      @kristoffergo6294 Месяц назад

      I agree. I live in Norway aswell. The forest that I used to shoot birds is already gone because they want to build some factory or a ship dock. Birds have disappeared. It's really sad to see.

      Love it! This pack is a 65L. For one night trips you could do a 55L or even 45L if you're not bringing any camera gear, just essentials. However for multi day trips or for lugging extra gear with you, I prefer the 65L.

      For the particular lens that I had on the camera in this video, the built in viewfinder does not have frame lines to match the focal length. The external viewfinder allows for accurate compositions with the wider lens!
