I’ve had mine for 15 years. The 21 mp generates an image suitable for high res commercial printing at A3 size. Which is why we bought it for my graphic design studio. Its generous. Never seen any dust spots, thought that was a thing of the past. Never had a CF card fail. The battery life in this thing is astonishing. Its not driving multiple screens so it just keeps on banging out photos. It’s a tank. It has an easy to relate to logic. Pick up, shoot. Oh and yeah, full frame.

Absolutely amazing Ben. I invite to you guys Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower

Hey Allan, this is not real time unfortunately. My wife and I live in Spain so we're able to do little segments at a time. We finished in Estella, so 5 days of the Camino. Spoiler alert it was amazing and the first day needs respect as it's a tough climb.

Yes and no, I think this is the toughest day from the whole Camino. With a climb of 1,400 meters I doubt that any other day has this incline. I know there's a day where you walk 30km but have heard it's not as strenuous.

@@35mmgravel_there’s another tough climb between Valcarce and Cebreiro and Fonfria. Over 1600m during the day. Quite a tough one, but as said not as tough as the beginning as you got used to it. Of course, that’s another story if you do segments only

God I loved my G7, I had it for about 5.5 years before it randomly died on me in the middle of a shoot during one of my college projects. I ended up borrowing one of my friends a7si, my first time using full frame and I absolutely fell in love with the full frame look. I just ordered an s5, but I'll never forget how absolutely amazing the G7 is especially for the price.

This is the camera I've used on my channel for years now. I've attempted to "upgrade" to a few other cameras a few times and always ended up sending them back (either the video quality wasn't good enough, or such a miniscule improvement that I couldn't justify the cost.) When I do my talking head shots, I set the camera in manual focus, and tap to focus on my phone with the Panasonic app. It eliminates the focus jumping, but for photos, I've never had a single problem with autofocus.
