Your pronunciation of maori names is perfect. you put others to shame and they have chosen to live here from abroad or some have been a couple of generations and still don't make the effort to use proper annunciation. You make the effort to look into your travels right down to the rivers, mountains and more. as a kiwi Maori, I thoroughly enjoy all your videos. I watch your videos with great admiration to all the effort you put into each one.

Adam I loved the shot of the engine on start-up. I have never seen that so close. What was the little camera you were holding in the toilet? I want one! well done on everything. the location sound during the flight into the lav mic (Sennheiser as a guess) was lost and buried in back ground noise. I suggest you use an AI audio noise reduction processing app in post production. I aspire to your editing standard. Sorry I'm a bit pissed as an 82 year old - I hope it makes sense. Paul
@FromtheWindowSeat 11 күн бұрын
Thanks Paul! The little camera on a gimbal was a DJI Osmo Pocket 3. The lav mic was a Sennheiser but it was plugged into a DJI mic transmitter which broadcasts directly to the DJI Pocket 3. I do use an AI background noise reducer in Final Cut Pro but it’s not perfect and while making the vocals much clearer does reduce the quality. Compromises I guess.
@Currym0n 10 күн бұрын
@@FromtheWindowSeatDear Adam, I have been thinking about that Sennheiser lavalier and without knowing the model, I suspect it is an omni directional mic. When I was a sound tech at the Festival Centre, we used DPA4288 head mics exclusively. These mics maintain separation under challenging conditions with a lead vocal singing directly into the opposite lead performer's face during an intimate scene. It is a cardioid mic and because it is close to the mouth the signal to noise ratio is at its best. The DPA4288 is the standard for musicals. I use one for presenters who insist on turning their head to the screen despite providing a laptop at the lectern in 'presenter view'. I don't use the Microdot adaptor and direct wire to the standard 3.5mm jack. mic

Great video and i am so envious of these bullet trains. I live on Canada's east coast and our train service west to the main centres of Montréal and Toronto are now reduced to two to three times a week depending on time of year. They also take around 25 hours so the fast trains would just change life here. Maybe with such vast areas, it would be too expensive or maybe it's just a lack of motivation on Via Rail's part. Thank you for sharing that wonderful overview of Japan's railways.

I've always found Stony Point station interesting in how little there is that it serves. The 'town' consists of a store, a Telstra depot (from memory), the pier for the ferry services, and a caravan park. And that's about it! It would be primarily the pier that justifies the service.
