What's in our camera bags, Heading: EAST edition! This is everything we brought on our trip to New England to shoot our new 5 part helicopter travel series Heading: EAST! We don't often change the gear we use, but for projects like this we have to be selective with what comes in our camera bags. In this video we break down our entire photo/video kit, drone kit, what we use to film and record audio inside the helicopter AND what we brought to light our hotel interviews!

So happy to have consolidated the kit since our last series. Wonder if we can make it even smaller next time 🤔
Links to everything in todays video are on our website: www.beckiandchris.com/blog/whats-in-our-camera-bag-heading-east-edition
great content! your channel, along with lizzie and chris, pete and matti were big motivators to getting me back into photography as a hobby and led me to eventually ordering the new a7IV as my first fullframe (and mirrorless to boot) with the 24-105 f4 g oss lens in hopes I can step up my game in the new year. using a lot of your past videos as tutorials and references for various things and hope to try a bit of real estate video for family if the 24mm is wide enough. also really like your taste in home decor and studio style 👌🤩
shame about the FPV drone :S
OH OK, Open up this video and 7 seconds in we got a heli shot of my home town Scarborough, Maine WHATTTTTTT
why do u both look so similar is it a theme for video
Wow you guys are busy !!!
I started watching the video from afar and I was like “who’s that lady with Becki?” Until Chris spoke and I was like “ooh ! It’s Chris, with straight hair” 🤣🤣🤣
You just exhibited the absolute essence of "The 7 P's"; Proper Prior Planning Prevents Pi$$ Poor Performance. You planned for the essentials, and backups to the essentials then eliminated everything superfluous to that. Well done!
Love seeing the evolution of this channel.
🙏🏼💙 thanks friend!
Nice! Loving the set for this 👌🏽
Thanks friend! It’s a fun change from the normal angle!
This series was aesthetically beautiful!
Honestly I don't think you known how valuable this content is to me right now. As someone who has for so long contemplated starting a filmmaking/photography TH-cam channel, this knowledge is invaluable! You guys inspire me everyday! Much Love....
Am I the only one that can't get waynes world out of my head while watching you two? Anywho, love how you used the backdrop you built and the detail of how and why you chose and did things to capture your content.
So important, not too much gear, but not too little. If you guys do a video on your portable set I’d love to know how you did your debriefs:
- Are you guys interviewing each other?
- Do you review the footage before shooting them?
- do you have a list of talking points?
it looks like it became an important part of the series using it as an A Roll for most videos.
Thanks David! Oh yes thanks for these questions, I’ll add these to the video!
Love you 2 ladies! Keep up the good stuff and positivity!
I have been a TV Producer for many many years so i appreciate what effort goes into production. There is sooooo much work in your projects. And not only excellent quality products. You guys are a great duo. Funny, clever, informative, interesting. It works cos it is raw. Well done. Love your "set" to. Making use of that wall well. Couldn't hurt to add the old "potted palm" in the background. Standard 80's morning show live cross set style. 😂Cheers. Steve 🙂
Thanks Steve!!
I LOVE that you are talking about this. I would love a breakdown of how you packed everything into as little bags as possible, especially for carrying the gimbal and the Aputure light for this trip.
This is a key video. As someone who preaches that the gear you don't need can often get in the way of the gear you do, this was a joy to watch.
Thanks Joe!
Amazing work! Can’t wait for the next series!
Absolutely loved the series Becky and Chris keep up the hard work 😓 Amazing content as always! I’m lovin it!
Fantastic partnership and channel. I’m in awe.
Epic content, as always - Thanks for knocking another one out of the park.
Love this!! Looking forward to the debrief/mobile studio setup break down. Loved the look of those!
I love y’all’s videos. Very informative and definitely inspiring to get more organized as far as putting a story together
Your kit videos are always worth watching, and cheers for making them! I like that it's a real rundown of what you use and why, and that you keep using the gear that works for you rather than just endlessly upgrading. ***Notes have been taken for my own gear setup!
I have such a hard time taking a step back and avoiding overshooting. I love these episodes guys!
Love this style of videos, I’m impressed! Keep up the good quality work!
Some great gear! Back in 2017 I flew a Maule across the country as a school project and wasn't a YTer... biggest regret of my life.... Now that our family is doing a lot in nature I am looking to document it the most effective way possible! Great info Thxs!
Love it!!!!! Y'all are awesome!!
Great idea on mood board with music! Love it!
Those worklights hanging down are really rad! Cool clip at 3:57 showing set-up; especially the aluminum foil reflector on desk! And at 4:48 another angle showing your filming gear! Those studio shots showing the lights and cameras are great 'how we do it' shots! By the way, I enjoyed the music in Heading: East! A lot! Thank you for your creative hard work and the 'get your hands dirty' work too! Awesome film again! Thanks again you guys! Peace!
I've only started watching but wow who know this was the video I wanted to watch today!!
Love the review! Subbed. Keep it up the great work
This was so interesting to me, I love the behind the scenes shots much love from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦
I can’t believe the quality of your productions. Congrats! You guys are very engaging. Fun.
If it ain't broken don't fix it. I live by that philosophy too.
I also live by the phrase buy cheap pay twice but forget to follow this rule all the time. I bought some cheap Neewer studio lights and discovered that they are poo at their job.
Your Apurtute light looks great. Had I seen this then I may not have took a Kickstarter punt on a Rotolight for my next studio/camera light.
Live and learn. 😀
I know nothing about cameras but your videos are very cool. Great work.
Nice. Great video. Love the thumbnail. And reduced kit - makes creating so much more fun with less gear. Top series too 👏🏻🚁🎬
Thanks Hannah! When there’s a lot happening it’s so much easier when there’s less gear to choose from!
Understand about needing downtime while shooting. We are bad cause I’m (Kelley) full time realtor and part time TH-cam creator. So our vacation is usually all TH-cam. We killed ourself the last trip. Tried to do to much. Love knowing what you use even though I’m simple. Gopro only haha.
Ooof definitely appreciate the level of camera angles now after seeing the effort y’all put in for the shot😭🔥🔥
Foil as a bounce fill. I like that!
two thumbs up as always! happy holidays B&C
It always amazes me the amount of equipment that goes into making productions like these. I can't begin to imagine the amount of time it takes to process all that footage. I have had a bash at YT video making in the not so distant past with dual cameras in my aircraft and in the end I just couldn't find the time (working it around a day job) to make the videos. I now just point and shoot with my phone (or take stills from the VIRB I have) when I go flying.
As I have said previously well done on a great series.
It can definitely be a little overwhelming with lots of cameras. I can’t imagine tackling it while working a day job! Nothing wrong with pointing and shooting ☺️
@@BeckiandChris Thanks for not making me feel like I am cheating with using the mobile point and shoot :) Though I have an entry level DSLR (an old EOS 1100D) that I should probably learn how to use properly, though using anything other than automatic mode and infinity focus whilst flying in a small aircraft is probably going to be hard.
Great BTS!!! ❤️
Shen cinewhoop drones are the best! I love mine for those smooth cinematic FPV shots!
Great Video!
Great video! 👏💯📸
You two have the best hair in vlogging. (RIP Chris Hau's mane)
Awesome video, something about the sitting/dialogue felt like a sophisticated Waynes World. This is a good thing.
This is a great video. Also… because of you all I started with one room in Benjamin Moore Gray.. then 2.. and now three!
Documenting (?) the first video I watched of you guys.... now excuse me but I'm going to binge watch all your content, thanx! >
I'm currently trying to refine my camera bag this has given me some really good ideas
Awesome glad to hear it!
I really like you guys - sharp, on point; no bullshit. New subscriber. 👍🦘🇦🇺
Getting “Between the 2 Ferns” vibe with the new set.. Sensing a new trend in format and hope it shows more video content along with the commentary. As always 👍
Guys i really like the way you present, keep going
Thanks Raef!
You are most underrated creators on this platform. Period.
🙏🏼💙
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH
Musicbed is legit.
Who knew this was the Ying Yang hair we needed!
First of all I love this Podcast Setup 😍😍😍😍 oh my my 🔥💯
6:13 wow that's a very nice!! tip, Never thought about that, Thanks
It definitely gives us a little peace of mind while we’re out!
Octagon Pier Bar- I can’t find a link or info on it. We need this to consolidate our charging needs. Please share.
Viewer number 3! Always like to know what you’re using. I’m definitely a fan of keeping things simple
Dr Chris's hair is looking glorious, I agree. Glad to see he has finally washed it😂😂🙏
😂😂😂 omg I'm watching the end right now 😂😂
"no thanks, I moistened my lips before I came down here!" lol lol lol
Hey!! Wanted to ask if you have a tutorial on how you make your GoPro shots look so gorgeous
Becki and Chris: The Smallest Kit
Also Becki and Chris: Yeah we‘re packing so much stuff for the trip so that we have to weigh every single piece we put in the helicopter.
Just kidding, love you guys 🙏🏼
Great video! but serious question whats the wooden magnets behind on the black board...
AMAZING AS USALELEELLEEL!!!!
I guess that perfectly fits in my PM Nomatic and I’ll still have space left!
Love the video! Can you tell me what armchairs those are? They look super comfy.
Great video! Have you guys tried the Sony mic? Thanks
MY FACE YOUR ASS! lol love the videos guys !!
Love it!! Great video guys!!!!! What ND filter of the Polar Pro PM-Series do you like more? Signature or mist? And ist 2-5 enough for all day to day use?
Highkey thought Chris was Becky for a solid second😂 Love you Chris😬😬
So you shoot photo and video on the same Sony cameras, are you switching your picture profile when switching modes?
Usually video on one and photo on the other, but if we use them for the opposite task we switch settings. I have custom buttons set up on my A7R4 to quickly go into video mode with preset custom settings (slog2, 24p, 1/50th etc). With the A7S3 I sometimes forget or don’t have time to change, so I’ll over expose to compensate for the PP and Gamma Assist
@@BeckiandChris When you do remember, is your custom setting just that dial setting it to "1" or "2", or you have like "C3" set to switch picture profile and gamma display assist on and off?
I do a lot of photography and video at the same time and either have weird colored photos or not the best video because I choose one.
Damn, my head is spinning. Love it.
You keep me inspired and moving ahead on my personal writing journey... I dont have the vlogging down.
Are you going home? Newfoundland for holidays? Would love to see a story of that.
Thanks
Aw yay thanks! Oh writing journey? That sounds fun!
I would think it is good to backup your footage to cloud storage. You can access it from anywhere and it has it's on backup as well. However you need a decent internet connection to do it.
Why are all your vids the best even these camera bag vids are better than Petes, also so much gear but so worth it clearly.
Are you considering the new DJI audio kit? Awesome video :)
Good, next time I plan a bike trip I'll take your advice on drones kit. Oh wait
Awrsome job guys. May I ask, what‘s that wooden plate you used for the video‘s thumbnail? Where can I grab it? Thx a ton 🙏🙏
Have been loving your content for the past few years. This video mentions data management and that’s my jam I would advise to also try and get a cloud copy on top. Adhering to the 3-2-1 3 copies of your data on 2 different media types and 1 of them being onsite. Keep up the great work.
We use cloud backup and raid5 towers for our main data management workflow but when traveling the internet is usually too slow and unreliable for daily backups! Thanks Michael!
@@BeckiandChris awesome! Thanks for the reply. You can only do what you can do. My talk track is generally what failure scenario can your data withstand. Fire, flood or blood…. Graphic but makes people think….. we can’t change physics though,
Wow very organized and professional,....i gotta ask the term ".piece of kit " where did you get that , we use it in the SF community i didn't think civilians used it ,
You guys don’t find the Rode Go II’s give feedback with the A7S3?
the sleeper tip in here: not having to format cards is so key.
SOOO key!
Candy cane underwear. Merry xmas!
y'all ever think of using cloud storage for piece of mind?
Great to see all the kit you used, the end result was amazing 🥳 Re audio, you mentioned it's a bit finicky with the GoPro and the helicopter - I found the audio there pretty tricky to follow, is it that bad or just a side-effect of the GoPro audio issues?
Thanks much! That’s just the nature of the radio, sometimes it’s hard to hear depending on how far we are from the tower, other times it’s clearer. We leave the gopro stuff as it sounds to give a real idea of what it sounds like when we’re on with ATC ☺️
Great nerd video that wasn’t nerdy :-). All about how you use things and why. Nice. One question though: how do you control the GoPros? I can’t imagine the batteries last long enough to just run the whole time.
Thanks much! Yeah they don’t last that long, I can usually connect to it from my phone inside the helicopter and it can run for about 30 minutes usually. We swap the batteries when we land! It doesn’t last as long in the cold though
I wonder if you guys ever considered getting the Sony A1? or the new A7IV? to swap everything out.
Great video btw. Always such great details into the why on each choice
We haven’t, we really love the low light capabilities of the A7S3 and the resolution of the R4 (plus it’s got a sync port) once we get stuff we like we usually use it until it breaks. Both cameras look amazing though!
💯
You guys live in Buffalo...what!? I’m a little over an hour south of y’all in Randolph, NY
Upon hearing Becki comment her MBP 13" 2018 can't handle workload well (not surprising), would suggest the obvios upgrade, get a M1 MacBookAir 16GB Memory perfect for almost anything and better for travel (runs circles around her notebook) - or If you like-prefer staying with a Pro, the M1 MBP 13" for portability.
Hey Chris, with your home - made drone with gopro attached.. that would weigh over 250g - so do you know if you have to register it when flying in states or Canada?
Awesome Series + BTS Camera... For future reference LaCie is pronounced (LA - see)... I know they produced Firewire drives and if I remember correctly they may have even produced SCSI drives (aka a really long time)...
Oh thanks you! 😂
How do you download your Fusion 360 footage with the legacy software issue?
I just take my holy trinity. But good idea on the backup system you guys use. For me, I personally spent more on hard drives so I back mine up to a 2 TB HDD and a 1tb SSD and format the cards
Oh and I bring a ton of sensor swabs so if cleans my sensors on both my r4 and s3 every night lol
I think we’re gonna just do the Holy Trinity next time. But I’ll miss my 50 1.4!
THE VESSEL
Wait why didn’t I get notified for this video. TH-cam needs to get their shit together.
Appreciate this video and consolidation of things. Are you considering getting the Sony AIV when it comes out? I'm curious about your redundancy plan..which is a good one. What about also backing up to the cloud? Is that not a consideration/necessity? Maybe it wouldn't be feasible due to the size of files and limitation to upload speeds of wherever you are?
Thanks Dana! I won’t be getting the A74, happy with the current set up as is and will likely use it until they break. For cloud, when we are at home we use Backblaze, but on the road the internet is too slow and unreliable for cloud backups so we toss it all on when we get home
Nice video / audio regarding what's in your bag. However, I think it would have proved a tad bit more informative had you shown more video/shots of the actual bags and how you two pack things away; especially since you hare traveling in a rotar-craft. Thanks and keep up the great work. Absolutely, love you videos / photographs.
My camera bag looks empty, I'm trying to get more gear but it's taking a while. After the camera bag has everything I need, I just need a helicopter and a Becki and I'm good to go😂🙏
Almost twinning with the hairstyles.
We’re just morphing into one person 😂
Did you guys get the new apple pro computers for your workflow?
We have a stacked 2019 MacPro for our main workstation and Chris uses his Razor Blade 15 for his edits but we didn’t add any of the new laptops. Might pick one up after Christmas though!
