Really good comparison review. Im a die hard Trangia man, I just love them. There so adaptable and you can ad hoc so many different set ups with them. I made my own X boil esq burner to use with a esbit military pocket stove. These are the only two spirit burners I ever need and use.

Great video, ive recently bought myself a Vango f10 nexus ul2. So far its only seen good weather, hopefully that'll change.

Camera is class, the burren looks amazing, thanks Matin

Freya is a beautiful dog. Rescues are the best!

Amazbols 😂❤

Looks like Freya had a great time. You found some lovely bockidy spots, nothing like it 😁 The 360 camera is very cool, on a multi day hike it would be fantastic for the variety of shots. Cheers for the video, I had me tea while you had your coffee. Amazeballs 😂

Another quality video, I would keep the camera, it helps give a different perspective.

The X3 is an ok camera in that it gives the possibility to get 3rd person views of you in the landscape, as well as decent talking head shots with still enough of the background and not just your head, something a vlogging DSLR may give. You seemed to change your settings about halfway through from washed out and very contrasty to more vibrant. Was it a white balance shift or a colour profile shift from log to vivid? One big thing about insta360 cams and GoPro etc is that they are at their best in sunlight. I usually use about 4 or 5 types of shots with the 360, as long as they are not too 'obviously' drone-like with extreme shifts in view, you should be ok. At the end of the day the video quality from a GoPro or Action 4, will be more consistent from the centre to the edge of the shot. With the X3, quality definitely suffers towards the edge. Then again how often do you look at the edges when watching a video shot on an ordinary camera. Last thing, and underestimated in importance, is sound quality. The mind will forgive poorer visual quality but not poor sound. You have that well in hand with the DJI mic. I guess there is no one-size-fits-all, you just have to decide what you want to film and how much you're willing to carry.

I like the footage from that camera. It can add to what you normally do, so if its not too much hassle to bring it along then I think you should keep it. As for the kids friendly version, why not just do one for all. What are us adults going to loose?

Well Martin how are things? 360 is very good and so are the other cameras, it's good to have for different angles, it has a time and place, would be good if you keep it to be honest, however, I find the audio is different, not as good as the other cameras you use, i don't know much about it or if you can use a mic with, maybe a different audio setup would make me love it more, still not sure about it, maybe a couple more videos might persuade me 👍

Great video, your dog looks like shes having fun. Love watching ❤❤

Absolutely amazing scenery man, these shots are beyond spectacular! Wow

Hi Martin. The footage is good and realistic when the camera is head height or below. It looks a bit globe like when over head height. You got a lovely day for your hike. It must be hard to eat a sandwich with that begging face of Freia looking at you 😊. All the best👍

I think the 360 is good in small doses - it provides an interesting but exaggerated perspective. However, I prefer the conventional action-cam view - it’s more realistic.

Ya mad banana

Good walkthrough of these tents. I agree that the pointy end should go down, that would definitely put me off buying one.

Fair play, enduring the cold.

Yup, I suffer with anxiety too, it's genetic so it will always be with us. We just have to learn how to control it! As far as the negative comments go, yes, we all get them. But I think your way of dealing with them is best. Don't give the trolls a chance.

14:19 camped dozens of times around that area, the direction of the wind constantly changes from being camped in a mountain bowl.

Thank you for your time and your job

I'm thinking about using alcohol instead of propane for my bondocks truck topper.. thanks u for the video..

Fantastic video mate thanks allot you've saved allot of people allot of time and money. Appreciate it mate 👌

You have a good leather boot and it’s let down by using mesh to save money, I don’t see any other reason, it’s not a boot I would consider 👎👎

Cheers martin.i,ll give it a go.

I'm a few weeks away from purchasing an F10 Radon UL2. I can't wait...

Great review. I would like to see more on the Vango Radon 1 please

Great video man🍻

I don't like the look of them compared with the lanshan. The lack of pegs is just weird.

Great video!

I still use my Lanshan 2. One of the best tents I've ever used. Outstanding review.

Honestly? Id give these an average rating. Not much of a bathtub so that could easily flood. The eyelid looks dodgy. Not enough pegs so therefore adding extra weight when you add your own. They don't give a HH rating which i think is suspicious. My advice if you want budget and quality trekking pole tent, try the decathlon MT900 trekking pole tent at just 1.3kg for a two person (0.9 for 1 person) full set of strong pegs etc, great quality. Cheers!

Good review .Will be giving those a big miss .

Might as well spend a bit more and get an X mid. Good video.

Really good video review, I do like the 2 person version, but id probably just go for a Lannshan 2P at the weight and cost. The Vango Heddon 100 is my current trekking pole tent and it has the eyelet for the pole at ground level, much better design. If it pops out which never happened, it just goes in the ground. My only issue with the Vango Heddon is the weight, its 1.6kg with pegs and bag. So pretty heavy for a 1 person trekking pole tent.

Good first look at them cheers, always good to see lesser known brands being showcased. Does feel like they're a bit expensive mind, you're getting into X-Mid and Dipole territories at almost twice the weight, could be good options if they're on sale though

As always so professionally filmed man! This looks really good and most importantly it doesn't take up too much space in your backpack! Love it 👌👌

Will this also help with the pink toe? Mine feels like the side of the pinky toe gets irritated the quickest

Well did it perform ok in the wet ?

😂😂Dude, you couldn't have cut it in advance.

Does the 2 man have two exits ? I never buy 1 man tents they rarely have room for your backpack ,[ i pack from inside to outside ] the other door on the 2 man tent is great when wind changes for cooking , and weigh very little more for the extra space they provide,

Really interesting, thank you.
