To convince myself that it's a good idea to bring too many lenses, I tell myself that it will toughen me up for the next times 😅 I know it's not "smart", it makes the climbs harder, but I love some lenses too much. My main one is the big Sigma 40mm f/1.4, and in the backpack the small Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 (mostly used around ~23mm), the new Tamron 90mm f/2.8 macro for mushrooms, flowers, insects but also for landscapes and animals and an old Takumar 200mm f/4 which takes up little space. Most of the photos are taken with the 40 and the 90 but I love having a few occasions to use the others a bit too. With almost 3 liters of water and a few accessories and a tripod, that's a lot! But if I know that some will not be useful in a specific place, I do not bring them 🫣

Love how she absolutely completely ignored every single person's questions, what a way to lose subscribers. 👍👍👍

Beware the time lines. For photographers: I guarantee you can't shoot a sunset at Santa Elena Canyon (@1:25) then drive to Soto Overlook (35+ minutes) and shoot a sunset in the same day (@2:03). Both are good places for sunsets, great if you have just the right amount of clouds. On day two, Mallory finishes the day with a hike to Balance Rock, BUT the photo is from sunrise (A5:00). B Rock is a sunrise pic, at sunset it's in the shadow of the mountain its on, and the lighting is dull/boring.

Servus, Danke für den Tipp. Weiter so. Ich wünsche dir alles gute im neuen Jahr 2025, viel Gesundheit, Erfolg und tolle Aufnahmen mit einmaligen Perspektiven. Gruß Jörg

Great video! Thanks for all the information 😁.

Doing Lost Mine, The Window and Balanced Rock in one day would kill me! 🤣 Great tips, though... all the places you need to see!

Thanks for the great tips. I'm thinking of taking a trip in March. 3 days is the ideal amount of time IMHO

Hi Mallory. Thanks for the video. How about the Wasting ink??? Like my Canon Pro 300, I got a code 1700 that mean the Absorber ink allmost full.

Great video! Ugly hat..😅 Kidding-(Go Gators!) We plan a trip to BB this summer. This video was very helpful! Thank you!

YOU are a LIFE SAVIOUR! Thank you!!!!!!

ps...are you shooting Raw?

Awesome video, so informative. Thank you so much! This is a goal of mine for 2025 and you've given me a lot of confidence!

How to download a 360 video to android? Im using samsung s23 ultra

Thanks for the presentation/advice, Mallory. I mostly shoot timelapse-panos, and really never considered star trails, but since its New Years, and the Milky Way is not happening for a few months, you may have saved my life, LOL! : ) In my work I have done many presentations and lectures, and I want to say, you do an excellent job. Quite professional, and helpful!

Super gorgeous

Excellent video

Thank you for the break down. May I ask what do you use to cut the images after you have printed?

What frames do you use for your 17x22 prints on your wall. They look great!! The photos and the frames.

You should get more likes (y)

There is no mention of opening the blue lock that keeps the cartridge in place. Had to go to Canon for that small, but important detail. Pop the blue switch UP before removing old cartridge, down to lock new new cartridge.

Thank you for sharing. Love it a lot,

Can I do the same with DJI mini mic ? Thanks

Life saver thanks!!

I have this lens. I was thinking or perhaps hoping you would go into details about this lens. It is great lens no doubt and I think we all know how much you love this lens as well:)

Awesome video! We are headed there is coming March during my kids spring break, so this was perfect.

What a fantastic and simple video. Thank you! Question: can you prevent this by using the printer regularly (which I was not doing)?

I'm going to try tonight

Great tips. Especially taking your bike in for a check over. I have had great luck so far with the tubeless set up. However, I have not had much luck with getting those mondo tires on and off. It takes a special kind of person and tools to do it. Good luck with those tires and your ride. Century rides are a great accomplishment, especially solo.

Mallory, I literally love your rigor and your precision and I love what comes out of it. Greetings from Italy!

Thank you so much, Mallory and greetings from Italy! the two photos of the Milky Way that I can see in the video are simply phenomenal! Please I would like to ask you two things: 1) are the photos taken from a single shot of 25 sec? 2) I noticed that you inserted the advertisement for a polarizing filter. Is it also useful in astrophotography? Thank you so much!!!

Good tip. Thanks.

gak perlu alat tambahan, gak perlu edit laptop apakah bisa?

Haha I did this on my first roll with my M6 this week. It's all part of the experience

You don,t tell us what ISO any of the pictures were shot at, considering it’s a low light review it would have been really helpful.

This is an excellent video - thanks!

Many thanks!

What was the first software you used? And did you take photos as raw file or jpeg?

You got this, I did my first organized century in my late 50's a year after recovering from cancer. The only thing I would say is you should have probably done one on your own just to get it out of your head. That same year I did three organized century's and the next year I did the STP which is Seattle to Portland, 202. miles over two days. We are constantly amazed at what we can do if we put our minds to it. Good luck! and reminder it's just a hill get over it

Big Bend challenge ahead. Looking forward to your iPhone 16 Pro documentation.

$200 for a stocking stuffer? No way its my main present im gettinf this year and yes i customized it haha. I came to find a female perspective and im glad im finally getting one. My husband got married with a multitool on his hip, got a leatherman for his first fathers day and wears a leatherman almost everyday.

Would you still purchase the 1000 today or spend the extra $350 on the 1100?

Great list! South Rim and Emory peak are must do’s for those that can handle longer hikes or backpack

I would very much like to get into astro photography in the UK and I came across your video. Very well paced, clear, not tech heavy and well spoken. Subscribed. I’m hoping to get a Lumix S5ii in the January sales (I know it’s a hybrid camera but that suits me) then get out into the darkness. Do you have any videos for simpletons on editing? I don’t want to spend hours editing and I like that the LUMIX allows in camera LUTS as for just social media and my own prints, I don’t require hours of complex editing. That would be great! Many thanks 🙂

Thank you so much for this. I just bought my first camera and so confused.

I’m 5’1” and I LOVE this bag!! Very comfortable

Great video! Thanks! I have had my Pro-1000 for about 4 months now and the only thing driving me crazy is the ink. When should you put a new cartridge in? When the exclamation mark pops up? It seems like there is a lot of life left when this comes on. If you are in the middle of a print and a cartridge runs out of ink, what happens? I for the life of me I cannot find an answer to this. I kinda got the feeling from one video that I watched that the exclamation turns to a red X and the printer stops so you can change the cartridge. Does anyone know if that is the case? I have a BIG pano that I want to print but am afraid to go with it but don't want to just change cartridges if I don't need to. Like I said... this is the only thing that is causing me heartburn!! 😁😁😁

Well, I’d rather try in one single shot. AI did that photo pretty much.

Thank You Mallory!! Very Helpful Info!!

In yr 4x6 example how did you calculate the cost of ink per sheet? Ie vol of ink used per sheet? hence cost per sheet. If volume of ink is based on area sheet. This assumes equal colour usage which isn’t so. If the 4x6 print has a height of ink 0.75mm I can get your number. I assume it is a number provided by cannon? Can you clarify the 8 cents per sheet per print. Richard from Australia. Ditto larger sheet calc. Enjoyed your simple and clear explanation. Cheers Richard in Australia

Hey thanks for the video, how do you get the foreground lit and in focus in these shots?
