We have to agree. We don't watch much tv at all anymore, many can understand why. We never miss a Gavin and Amanda post though. Talent and humor....cant get any better... All the best numbnuts, and Amanda too!🤝
X2D 📸 already Legendary. Shame we all cant have one. The technology is truly inspiring. Great Video Gav & Amanda 👏🏼 BTW, for the complainers out there, In a previous video, he was using a M43 camera 🫠 • Regardless of which Camera YOU are using, if YOUR sat on sofa & not taking photos, wouldn't matter which Camera is in the Bag...
That was so good and funny but I have to say Amanda strutting off down that path was just brilliant. Very entertaining; I forgot it was about photography. Subscribed.
I love your videos! I'm not a professional, don't have a very expensive camera and may never buy one. But my photos have improved so much with your perspectives on composition. I've watched the F4 videos many times. Thank you for producing entertaining and educational videos!
Great video, photos are stunning - and I love the showcasing of these cameras, find it interesting to see what they can do. But ultimately it’s the photographer that counts and Gavin is one of the best. I always enjoy them just a little more when we have Amanda & Thomas in, the humour is great and a trademark of Gavin’s vids.
These guys work their butts off to bring us great content and entertainment, which costs us nothing. I certainly have no intention of buying a HB and no amount of promotion will make me change my mind. I also didn’t fancy the Nikon Z8, Sony A2, Fuji 100s etc etc. I also watch mainstream tv with all their branded sponsorship and don’t buy any of that either. I really enjoy the videos but also realise that it is a business as well and these guys deserve it for all their hard work.
Wonderful video as always. Love the aurora shot. I see folks getting worked up about the camera and I just don’t get it. You and Thomas are working professional landscape photographers. You are pretty much who a camera like that was made for. And over the years you have been using mostly Sony gear that is much more in the average person’s range and done incredible work with that. In fact, only a week or so back you had a video with a micro 4/3 camera and the results were amazing. If anything, you have proven to us more than anyone else that it’s not the gear, it’s how you use it. Shoot with whatever!
Catching up on vids, stunning pictures indeed, those colours are just awesome. Now that Hassleblad is the one camera I really wish I could try out! It draws you in!!
Speaking of Ricketts Glen I was just there yesterday, it was my third trip there since seeing your video. I want to thank you for letting me know about it, its just an absolutely fantastic place for waterfalls. I tried to get there when there was good color but it wasn't as good as I was hoping but still worth the trip. Thank you for that wonderful video & all of your others that keep me entertained & inspired.
OMG, the colour quality in the first image is like an 8K image from The Hobbit. Thank you for taking us along for the ride 🙌🙌. Had to come back and say, holy moly all the images are breathtaking. Perfect Muise for the X2D 🙌 P.S. Cheque for the camper is in the mail. lol
Always great to see we should not take ourselves to seriously in life 😊 Some great British humor always great to see 👍 But your photography is also great as always! Regardless what camera gear as in the end thats not the most important piece of the puzzle in creating a great image...
What a stunning set of beautiful images! You are an incredible photographer, and what an advert for the quality of reproduction produced by this Hasselblad camera.
That Aurora shot with the camper, sold, I’m buying’ it. How much to post it to Australia? Amanda’s reactions and silent treatment were hilarious, thanks for the laugh guys. Fantastic shots too, you deserve that Hassy. Cheers
Hello Sir. Your videos are so entertaining and informative that I can't wait until the next one. Thank you for your efforts and expertise. Very much appreciated.
No 1 RUclips photographer, don’t care what he is carrying and how much it cost. The tips and tricks help the same for even with my £97 second hand Canon 50d. And what makes me subscribe is the added humour. Amazing vids, keep up the great work….
I’m a little surprised that everyone is obsessed with the camera vs. the camper (what I took as the actual theme of the video and foreshadowing). Sure, I am jealous that Gavin and Thomas (maybe) were gifted, given, supplied, etc. the Hasselblad cameras, but they have also put in the work. Great video, can’t wait to see the next one.
😂 Gavin you're slowly (and I mean slowly 😆) becoming one of me favourite photography RUclipsrs / comedians lol! Keep the laughter coming, wouldn't want a face of thunder rocking up in the comments section 😅
I personally don’t care what gear you guys use. You are very inspirational and anyone can learn something from your artistry. That tree though…😍 Truly magna-feekwa. 😂
Subscribed! Great photography and you made me want that camera :-). Your camper also brings back memories... we had a 9.6 with the exact same interior.
Subscribed to both you guys - love the humour. I'm sure Amanda will come around eventually - meanwhile I would have someone taste test your meals for the next few years 😂😂 (She really is gold mate!)
I don't care if you are shooting with the expensive Fuji point and shoot or the Hasselblad: I can't afford either. I'm here for the amazing shots and tutorials. Ignore the haters.
I think the worry subscribers have is that in selling your camper, we'll see less adventures and more gear. I love your channel for goofy adventures and camaraderie, the photos provide a common ground for these things to revolve around. Gear is bottom of the list in reasons why I subscribe. You'll miss the camper Gavin, I know I did when I sold mine, so I ended up buying another!
I've been with my lovely wife for 34 years and that thunder face has looked back at me more times than I care to remember!.. that's why I do have a face like the proverbial rabbit caught in the headlights!
Hey Gavin. Looks like we missed each other on the trails but seems we were in the same places at the same time. Another great video and good luck with camper and counselling. 😊 Cheers
Well, I finally managed to get to Emerald Lake Lodge!!!! My wife and I spent 4 days there staying at the Lodge, getting some unbelievable shots of the surrounding area as well as a nice 6 point bull elk. I was quite honoured to standing in the very spot my two favourite Mentors (Gavin & Adam) once stood and took the classic night shot of the cafe. I did however manage to get some shots that even you didn’t get, that were even as impressive. Hope you’re enjoying your new Hasselblad. Cheers Gavin!
@@fototripper glass calm lake, fog amongst the trees, 6 point bull elk in a rut with a heard of female elk. Come on mr 007. Let’s see the pics then. 😂 😂
@@fototripper Yes I believe you do. Not all the killer shots make it to the show I’m sure. I’m just messing with you. We love you guys and all you have done for Photography. Say hi to Amanda. I hope you’re getting her a new camper. She deserves it. Cheers
That Hassy is simply elegant, bland yet still stylish. Congrats on acquiring a legend! Nova Scotia is underrated, I love the views from Kellys mountain and the Cabot Trail is beautiful all year round but fall is extra special. I"m moving off the Rock in the next year or sooner, love the peacefulness here but everything is just too far to reach. Nova Scotia is on my very shortlist, looking in Sackville area recently, I don't need a camper, but thanks lol Cheers,
As far as I can make out just doing a conversion from the “pre-order” US price that version of the X2D would be about NZ$38,000 (not sure if the US price includes tax) and to put that in perspective its about the same as a new Toyota Corolla Hybrid Hatch including our 15% GST !! It will be interesting to see if any make it to our shores and if they can get here any faster than the horrendous wait times on some cars !!😀 Man love those autumn colours.
@@gordoncahill1170 pretty good, the US price I got included a lens and a few bits and pieces. Much better than the wait time for a Toyota rav 4, I believe they are as popular across the ditch as they are in NZ 😀
Wheels in Gavin, got to show off those rims to really sell the camper's best features. I think you need to rebrand it the "Aurora Edition" though. Limited edition of course.
Very funny! 😂 The X2D, although undoubtedly a brilliant camera is over priced in my opinion and Hasselblad are desperately trying to promote it by greasing the palms of RUclipsrs… fair enough I say! I’m more than happy with my gear and as we know it’s not about the gear. But if it’s what you do for a living you might as well use the “best” tool you can get your hands on. What happened to Amanda’s X2D 😂 Gavin’s videos are always going to be worth a watch whatever camera he’s using… just as long as Amanda still features 😊 Onward to that 100k subscribers Gavin!
Great photographer, great film maker, great actor / director, but geesh Amanda! Who's that guy that's talking all the time? And why is he using your camera?
I’m surprised how much hate you and Tom are getting for the camera your using obviously people are missing the point of your videos, there seems a perception that RUclips creators have to shoot with a cheap camera just to make less well off photographers happy, people are forgetting Ansel Adam’s shot his images on medium format film that doesn’t stop people shooting the same images with a smart phone, personally I don’t begrudge either of you your success I’ve followed both you and Tom for a long time and watched you build up to where you are so we’ll done and keep the good work up
Totally agreed. The tech is just the tool. For me it’s everything else in the video I’m here for. Is it cool to see what quality they get from those cameras? Absolutely but everything they do up to the point of the photo makes you feel like you’re right there with them learning and enjoying the moment. For me, that’s what it’s all about. Make me feel like I’m there with you and not like you’re some big shot on a stage. Gavin and Heaton are 2 amazing photographers that have brought us along for their journeys while educating and entertaining us. I for one am grateful and continue to support these two.
Ansel Adam’s shot the majority of his work on a very large format camera. 8 x 10 I believe. Medium format is pretty small compared to that. Very small.
My 2p worth on this “Expensive Gear Crisis” (Rob is very incensed!)… I’d like the Hasselblad for my taste in colour science (and IBIS) but think it looks ugly & cheap so prefer the V Fit version/Back BUT on RUclips anyone who thinks they can see a difference excepting his PP is fooling themselves. Even for prints/calendars it’s irrelevant - one of the best images on Heaton’s Calendar was taken on a Canon 5Dii. And when he used that people loved his work! That camera and the 5Di also have beautiful colour (well regarded by many like Martin Castein still using it as a Pro) which moved me to them from Sony (A7R ii and iii), Fuji (XT2 and 5 tried (EVF on the 5 did my eyes in)) and Leica (M8, CL and TL2) and OM5 and Pen F (for macro work I can’t think of anything better than the OM1 system and it’s Focus Stacking). I prefer the Canons to any. Even for large prints Topaz DeNoise AI and Gigapixel AI will make massive showable/sellable prints on even 4/3.
Very entertaining as always Mr Fototripper, as is the comments section. Just make sure you keep that Hasselblad safe, otherwise Amanda might trade it in for a new camper!
Hi Gavin....Crackin video, aurora borealis has been awesome here ever in Devon, UK so I'm told there are photos around Tiverton with the green & red sky, but personally I missed it every time...What a w***** I am. Have seen on F/Book. I shoot with a Canon R3. Would love to have seen it. Real superb shots of the waterfall & that tree....Love the Hasselblad and where you live, would really love to take some photos over there. But on chance of that happening.....Again superb video & funny as well....All the best to u & Amanda... Colin Devon UK..
@ 4:32: "Hey! Lady! I'm shooting here! Do ya MIND??" Haha, I know you didn't say that (though you likely thought it). Great video and images! I'm in Maryland for the time being and the leaves are only now starting to turn. I went to Shenandoah National Park last weekend but was disappointed with the lack of color.
Firstly reminder to myself, don’t read your comments! Ffs what’s wrong with fork! Secondly, id fecking love to try, have the X2D. I remember trying the X1D and loved it! Good on ya spud! And Tom.
