There are several things I've learned when shooting in wet sand close to the tide line. I keep several blank DVD disks in my bag, which spread the weight of a tripod leg in wet conditions. I also always rinse my 'pod in fresh water to remove any sand and, more importantly, salt from the legs. Great video, I subscribed.

I always snap a few pics handheld right away if the light threatens to fade quickly. *Then* set up the tripod and fine tune the composition. That way you'll have something to work with if the light goes before you're done futzing.

Agreed, even if you have to push up the ISO to get the shutter speed you need hand held. That happens very frequently with birds and wildlife where you can't count on the subject staying put, and occasionally with landscapes when you have great light or something like a rainbow that you know could disappear by the time you set up with a tripod. Taking up bird and wildlife photography made me much faster with decisions on exposure settings and composition and that helps with some landscape situations.

Love your videos Ian. Just one comment on something you've said here regarding tripod positioning on slopes. You suggest that 2 legs lower on the slope for safety .. However, I work in TV and we always teach 1 single leg lower on the slope. Reason for this is that 2 legs create a pivot point whereas 1 leg doesn't. I know this is true because when I was a Camera Assistant I let go of a top-heavy tripod and turned my back resulting in it tipping over and bending a £4000 head (no camera thankfully). Luckily a friendly Grip bent it back again and I wasn't fired! True story ..

I have anchored the tripod by using some 1 inch webbing and a buckle. You can cinch it up so your bag still touches the ground without swaying. It’s fairly easy to get the distance between the tripod and the bag’s bottom to the ground. The webbing and buckle probably weigh less than a bungee cord and doesn’t have the hook to catch on stuff. The webbing and buckle cost me less than US$9.00.

Beautiful pup!! I really like that tripod head you use. I noticed it in a previous video and searched for it. Unfortunately it's not quite in my budget. But, maybe some day!! I have a very similar tripod made by Promaster that works very well for me. And, you're so right about that L bracket. I have one from 3 Legged Thing for my X-T3. I really like that you did a black and white edit on that second image. Really worked nicely! I've wondered recently while watching you and some other landscape photographers like Thomas Heaton, about why you keep your camera in the bag until you get to a scene you want to shoot. Why don't you have it on a clip or on a strap. I usually hike with mine on a strap at my side. But, you may have answered that question in this video when explaining why you use a tripod more often that hand holding.....so you don't just snap off loads of shots. You only take it out when you find a good shot. Hmmmmm...... Interesting idea I might have to try. Thanks for taking us along!! Have a great weekend. I just noticed that first post below about banning walking in videos. Sounds like someone got up on the wrong side of the bed today!! LOL!

I'm kind of torn between one leg downhill vs. two legs downhill. I agree that two legs downhill will provide more lateral stability, but one leg downhill will provide more (downhill) tip-over resistance since that single leg extends farther downhill than the two more splayed out legs. But all in all it's probably a minor consideration in the context of just paying attention! 🙂 Luna is beautiful! We have cats, so that sort of rules out taking them along on a photo shoot. LOL

I've been using it for years now, allowing me to carry a much lighter travel tripod, giving me great steady long exposure shots in windy situations.

Wonderful location and time of day. I suppose I'm a bit long in the tooth for getting tips about using a tripod and the result is that I watched all the presentation and found nothing new. Near the end, you saw some beautiful sunrays and started planning where to set up the tripod. As part of my workflow, I take a 'snapshot' of any potential new composition before messing with the tripod, perhaps turning up the ISO to achieve a usable shutter speed . This looked like a classic case in point. You could have lost the attractive sunrays whilst setting up your tripod whereas had you bagged a snapshot, you might have come home with a usable shot that would otherwise have been lost whilst going for the perfect tripod composition. Just my POV.

That gives a good stabilized camera, and then I look thru the view finder. I can also hold the camera around the Pixi legs if I want to have the camera further away from me, for any reason.

I primarily use weight stabilization when shooting astro, so the in-body stabilization is usually off unless I've lit the foreground to give the software something to anchor the image with. Even still, some nights I've ended up having to throw in the towel if the breeze/wind gusts pick up too much. I've always hung a liter of water or bag from the tripod, but not considered the wind swaying the weight side of the equation. I'm intrigued by this potential bungie cord solution (or perhaps a ratchet strap) to reduce the weight profile in the breeze and possibly increase the wind resilience of the set-up. I'll have to try that next time. Thanks for the very informative vid!

Another very useful review, Ian. I might be one of those who suggested using a bungee cord to anchor the tripod - full disclosure, not my invention: I picked it up from another landscape vlog a couple of years ago. But I have used it successfully in many situations when facing extreme wind conditions: places including Iceland and the West Coast of Ireland. I should amplify that the approach is not limited to anchoring with your camera bag: in tough conditions I have used a bungee cord to anchor my tripod to tree roots, rock outcrops, and stray logs on beaches. Cords are super light and because of their inherent stretch can be employed without having to make tailored adjustments. Mine were very cheap on AMZ: a few dollars for a set of 3 individual cords of different lengths (color-coded). I keep the shortest and the longest at the bottom of my bag: they take no space at all.

Not sure what you were doing wrong as apart from the title, you did not mention it in the dialogue. Most of what you showed is how I work and is common sense. If you do find your tripod a burden check out the new Heipi 3 in one, uniquely designed, lightweight, carbon fibre, travel tripod. I've used mine on some seriously strenuously located waterfall panoramic images and I love it. It has a maximum load of 55 lbs. Downside is it's expensive. One accessory I swear by that makes life much easier on rugged slopes is a levelling head. Another tip for dealing with windy conditions is a cord attached to the central column hook and hooked onto your bag which is partly resting on the floor (so does not get blown by the wind). Another accessory I swear by and always carry on my waterfall expeditions is a pair of mini crampons. They make clambering about on slippery, algae covered rocks, muddy slippery slopes and slippery stream beds a doddle and are very handy for seascape photography safety. They don't weigh much and have got me out of a couple of sticky situations. Well produced video with some nice images. Thank you.

Carry rucksack uphill tighten in the shoulder straps, walking down hill slacken them off, and the waist isn't, it is suppose to rest on top of your hips. Hence why it is always worth paying for the best in the way of being able to adjust the back length etc. Keep shooting.

I’ve always did one legs down then the rest. And in level I use two legs down first. And yes all the legs collapsed T the same time. And I used two tripods when I do pictures one is bigger and other opens up to be flat where the legs of tripod make it level and can be adjusted. It’s an older tripod that is kinda heavy but it helps to keep it down and not topple.

Actually having 2 legs facing down on a hill is not the best idea, the 2 legs act as a hinge if the tripod is knocked. Where as if you have one leg down on a hill if knocked it will fall sideways. For added weight on a tripod i have some nylon cord attached to the carry handle and then the rucksack is just resting slightly on the ground and the cord is put on the tripod hook. That way the full weight of the rucksack is pulling the tripod down. Using a bungee cord the tripod can still move due to the bungee just being a heavy duty elastic band.

Great video, and loving Luna - she clearly was ready to play!! Quick question: in some of the shots it seems like you have a USB cable between your camera and the tripod.- what does that do?

Thank you, the device was my shutter release cable, it allows me take the photo without touching the camera.

That is the same brand of ball my ball obsessed golden retriever plays fetch with. I take her and a tripod when I'm hiking and photographing, but no ball. If she has a ball or knows I have it, she's going to keep bugging me to play fetch and not stay away from my tripod and camera equipment. We either go out to hike and photograph or play ball, but not both.

Thanks for a good video. Luna knew exactly where to stand to get you to throw that ball. Some good tips here. One I do is that I use a super light oil called Breakfree in the US, on a paper towel to wipe the legs periodically. I subscribed.

I have the same problem with our spaniel! Now she has learned to stand in front of the lens to get my attention :)

That's funny, we have a spaniel too but he's terrified of the car, otherwise i would bring him along too.

Hey Ian, do you take some hand held safety shots when you’re rushing around looking for compositions when there’s fleeting light? I prefer to shoot from a tripod and take it slow but I always end up taking a few test shots at higher ISO’s (if needed) and sometimes I end up preferring them.

Nice photography video, but an absolutely beautiful dog. If I took that dog on a walk at the seashore, I'd leave my camera at home.

do u knw what i hate about the tripod head , its the screw on the mounting plate ( quick realese locking knob) that locks ur camera . and there is so many round knobs on a tripod , that u could easily unlock it by mistake or in dark or even ur fancy friend decide to touch it ended up droping ur camera in floor .
My Camera Settings were WRONG until I Changed This!
