Day Hike Camera Test/Reel
Added on 11/6/2024
In this video, I take you along for a beautiful day hike along the Palisades Parkway, showing you that you don’t need fancy gear to capture an amazing story! I decided to keep it simple and portable, using only the DJI OSMO Action 5, DJI Mini Pro 3, and a Peak Design carbon fiber tripod to document the stunning views and moments of this hike. Although I have my Sony A7IV and other high-end gear available, I wanted to prove that even with minimal equipment, you can still create a cinematic and engaging video. Join me on this hike and see how you can tell a great story without overcomplicating it!
