      Great stuff Kym! I have a question that I think you could answer for me. I'm attending my first F1 race in May... As an amateur photographer, I'd love to bring at least one body and a couple lenses with me. is this something that Formula one would allow or will I get stopped at the gates? My concern is that I'll get turned away at the gates because of my camera/cameras.

    Just discovered your channel with this video and loved the insight to the gear you take with you! That StreamDeck usage was brilliant too - it immediately inspired me for some ideas for a new TouchOSC layout on my iPad. I already have a pretty complex setup for livestreaming, but hadn't considered making one for use with Lightroom metadata/export. Cheers!

    Hey Kim, the HD60S is an elgato capture card and it is amazing for not just using them to use ur camera for live streams but if you were to do a good deal of recoding other devices on ur laptop or PC it is a great deal of help

    The Elgato SD60S+ is a capture card that converts the "way too large" file size of your camera, to a more streamable and stable version for the internet, making almost any DSLR and mirrorless fabulous for live streaming and online classes for instance :-) we use it for online classes while I travel and replace it with a Blackmagic ATEM mini, for multiple camera settings when we do live product presentations using up to 4 high-end cameras, for stunning results and a smaller budget :-) thx a lot for your content, always interesting to see what other photog travel with :-) just switched to the medium format from Fuji, the GFX100s, mind-blowing...

    No one needs car auto focus, specially on track. You can place the focus point on the line where the cars are. Eye af is nice to have and the 600 or so focus points as well, but car af is just something i don't think is needed

  • @nick8077

    Airpods are noise-cancelling yes, but they don't necessarily protect your hearing. If I were in your shoes I'd be getting some custom moulded in-ears just like the drivers and pundits.

    That little black thing is an Elgato HD60 S+, I have the same thing. It's use is to capture anything HDMI traveling through it so it doesn't use your computers resources to stream audio/video.

  • @stuartcarden1371
    @stuartcarden1371 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    My good old Pentax K-3 is hiding under a pillow at the sound of 30fps. However, it's no slouch for a camera made in 2013 at 8.3 fps with a mirror, focus and metering. Mirrorless is no doubt getting to the point of being such a good switch but I still need time to get used to an EVF. I didn't realise how sensitive my eyes were to flicker and lag until I started testing EVFs but I know they will get to a point where I won't notice and then I think I'll switch (maybe). A Pentax shooter is a hard person to change lol

  • @NickWhitehead24
    @NickWhitehead24 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Hi Kym, great video. Any chance of some side by sides with the old cameras?
    One thing to note, the noise cancellation on the AirPods is not actually offering hearing protection, and there is no research to suggest it does. Working in noisy environments I was curious when you mentioned it.
    You will see a lot of the pit crew will have moulded in ear monitors, and I imagine one of the major players in this like ACS will turn up at races from time to time. At current there isn’t really a wireless solution to these, so that might be a reason not to. But you will thank yourself for proper hearing protection in the future.
    I use ACS as I work at gigs and I am used to loud environments.

    Using a stream deck to increase the efficiency of your photo editing/broadcasting workflow?! Genius. Workflow is arguably the most important skill a photographer needs to master to become successful- love that you’re sharing some insight.
    I’m assuming your approach to photography is an emphasis on capturing images that are near perfection that need minimal editing? What about the photos you included in your book- did any of the images send you down an editing time-sink?
    Lastly since we are talking racing- I would love some editing/publishing speed runs comparing your new rig to previous years? Ha!? Do they compare relatively to the speed increase of Formula 1 cars over the years?
    I’m new to your channel so apologies if you’ve already answered my nerdy workflow questions. Have you posted a video about the history of your professional career?

    Another great video and my friend stayed with his EF mount 70-200mm f2.8 on his new R3 camera body mostly because past experiences of the push pull type zoom lenses allowed dust to get inside his camera lens. So he's given the new RF mount 70-200mm f2.8 a wide bearth. It will be interesting to see how you get along with the new RF mount 70-200mm f2.8 lens.

      One other thing which frightens me about the push pull lenses is the nodal point variation. If you want to do sports only, no problem, but if you also want to do pano's in a decent way you'd have to change the nodal slider for each zoom setting where on the RF 70-200 it's just one point as the nodal point doesn't change.
      And then there's my experience in the past... with some cheaper push pull lens.. over time it got relatively loose, so it just dropped down whilst walking around.. not great.

      Yeah that's an unreasonable worry to have, the RF 70-200 2.8 is far better than the old EF versions.

    Hi Kym, very interesting video. Love your photography i too love the Monaco coming out of the tunnel images.. awesome.
    I see you say you pack in the think tank bag. But you can take that into an airplane? including the 600mm? that gear must have a lot of weight. and the 600mm cant fit into overhead?
    im a technical person sure like to understand how to get from a to b to then focus on the image ca[pture.
    tanks for your insights and images. regards
