Join us as we visit CAL FIRE HQ at McClellan Air Tanker Base in Sacramento to capture CAL FIRE’s tanker pilots train for California's 2024 fire season. This is all for our long-term goal of making a docuseries that will show you what it takes to fight fires from the sky.
To make things more interesting (or complicated, because why not?), we’re testing out two new cameras: the Canon R5C and the RED Komodo, which I've been dreaming about like it’s a sports car. Spoiler alert: we ended up returning one. Want to see which camera didn’t make the cut? Watch until the end! The answer will surprise you.
