Hi Ben. I’m a devotee to your channel. I love your work, more than often you inspire me to take a break and go shoot film. I love shooting with my Contax 137 ma. And then this video. I’m from South Africa know the area fairly well. Now living in Australia. What a awesome privilege you had capturing wildlife for eternity. Excellent work.

[@adventureStaley]

Thank you sir. This means a lot. Film shots next week!

[@photosbybo]

Some photos have a great depth of field. Wouldnt have thought that was possible with the 100-300mm. Great work!

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@DroseMr]

Footage of walkin or whatever is spooky.and all the rest too🎉Thank You

[@alanneilson6811]

Fantastic images brought back fond memories of my time when I lived in Kenya. I am looking to get back but would like to do SA this time.

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@artistjoh]

Both Africa and Australia are full of the most incredible and often very strange animals. The GH6 makes fabulous video and photographs.

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@onnie1968]

Amazing work loved it thank you for sharing.

[@adventureStaley]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@lindsaytaylorphotography]

Some incredible images. Been to Africa twice, might be time to plan a return.

[@adventureStaley]

Go

[@flipfilmmaker]

Awesome! Hungry Hungry Hippos and Lions! Great content !

[@adventureStaley]

🤘🏼

[@3dtrip870]

Fantastic footage, my man!

[@DLM-ty3rt]

This was inspirational, the footage is beautiful and your photo compositions are just amazing. Clearly proves that it's not always about the kit but the person taking the images (although I'm tempted with a GH6 now!). Think my favourite critters are the crocs, the way those eyes watch you above the water line ...!

[@adventureStaley]

Thank you very much

[@JohnPatrickWeiss]

Amazing footage! Didn’t know the hippos were so deadly.

[@adventureStaley]

Stone cold killers

[@robmcd]

I’d love to see a vid on printing these huge (appropriately sized)

[@adventureStaley]

Ooooo good idea

[@jeffreywjpn]

Ben, this was so enjoyable. Love your channel and your passion. Guess you didn’t use the q2 much for these shots! Magnificent footage of some beautiful animals. You really brought us there with you!

[@adventureStaley]

Thanks a ton!

[@TheClaudedimitri]

What a magnificent adventure the photos are exceptional that of the lions are breathtakingly beautiful and your video captures of great art and the music choice amazing 🙏 Is all this magnificent adventure for a documentary?

[@adventureStaley]

Hey thank ya 🙏🏼🙏🏼. And nope, I was just out there making a silly tv show. Had some down time. Cheers.

[@SuchetB]

Ben I am new to your channel and love the way you filmed this video - did you film using VLOG or another profile such as CINE D on your GH6? It's beautiful.

[@adventureStaley]

VLOG. thank ya!

[@wk-film]

Great!!!

[@bradmiller9993]

Faaaaaantastic stuff. A++

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@lamclucianoalonso2110]

Hi...amazing montage music and images...I have a question, do you use ND filter for your shooting?

[@adventureStaley]

I didn’t for this one. When I’m doing very specific video I do. Thanks!!

[@kosmidts]

Awesome Ben!! Great shots and portraits. MFT isn’t dead 😊

[@adventureStaley]

Hell no its not, thanks pal.

[@zenonbillings9008]

AMAZZZING !!!!! zen billings

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ericrjennings]

Awesome video and photos. Is that the 100-300 that has that swirly bokeh in the background? Great job

[@adventureStaley]

Which shots specifically?

[@ericrjennings]

@@adventureStaley the tighter ones of the lions. Also are you keeping the GH6 or was it just a loaner for the trip? Are you fully analog right now?

[@adventureStaley]

That’s what I thought. Those are with the 42.5. Those lions are in a large sanctuary and I shot them through a fence. Could get within a foot of them or so. Very scary. I expect I’ll have to return the GH6 but they haven’t asked yet. When those cameras get better AF for video they will be amazing. Still don’t actually own a Digital camera. Shooting some portraits with the GH later today. Cheers.

[@ericrjennings]

@@adventureStaley yep I love the look of that lens. I thought the photos turned out awesome

[@adventureStaley]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Tom_YouTube_stole_my_handle]

That 200mm f4 Nikkor is a great lens. I had one in the 1980s

[@adventureStaley]

Really stoked with the film shots I got back with that lens. Thanks for watching.

[@hizhaus]

wow
