[@H2o3G2a]

Hi, big fan from Bahrain, can you please stop fighting it and get a 6x7 film camera. I'll buy all your books

[@ChrisDeltaEchoKilo]

Every time, Gavin tops all his previous videos. More entertaining than anything on Netflix and better for your mental health too.

[@matejbednarik8736]

Big truth :D 👍

[@peterfritzphoto]

I agree 100%!

[@deroux]

Fujifilm just give Amanda the camera. She's earned it!

[@crazygooseventures]

Hi Gavin it’s Jaylin (using my dad’s account) and thank you for the wonderful book (your number one fan)! PS: your book is not a POS. ;)

[@fototripper]

Hiya Jaylin. Glad you liked the book and I reckon you aced your first acting debut :)

[@JoeMustang99]

Jaylin--great job you did on your part of Gavin's video. Maybe you can give Gavin some acting lessons?

[@tonyjohnson3752]

the ending is worth more than all the minutes in all other fototripper videos combined.

[@jonnybondphoto]

Dear Fuji, while Gavin only has 68k subscribers, most of us live on his every word. As an example, 19K of us got engaged right after his engagement video aired. I have noticed about 22k Sony A7M4s recently hit eBay for sale, no doubt on the assumption Gavin is keeping the Fuji camera and we all will soon be joining him with a Fuji purchase once our gear is successfully sold. If you are not persuaded by pure economics, consider the heavier camera he will be schlepping will help him get into better shape. You may actually be helping save a life. You cannot put a price or profit analysis on that. #savehardcastleslife #smallbutmightyfollowers #iwant1too

[@fototripper]

I fact checked this and it's all 100% legit

[@peterfritzphoto]

What a pisser! I agree, Jonathan!!

[@delhiggins1234]

My favorite part of this episode was the last 10 seconds….. LOL

[@JonathanRobinson11]

Finally, a professional photographer with a sense of humour…

[@victor-ferreira]

Gavin to the Grammy Awards!!!!! The best worlds, photography plus hilarity humor scenes!!! And Fujifilm please give the GFX to Gavin please, he deserves and he is ( he will be) an excellent Fujifilm ambassador!!! 👌

[@rongallacher8216]

Fujifilm please give Gavin this camera and lens. He did a FANTASTIC JOB PROMOTING YOUR CAMERA. I’m thinking of buying one 👌👌👌👌

[@fototripper]

They didn't.

[@snymat_68]

That ending caused me to choke on the pizza I was stuffing in my face... which in turn caused a coughing fit, all the while crying with laughter. 😐😐😐

[@juanitakelly3082]

One of your smoothest and best productions with added value that you inspire folks to leave great comments that are entertaining as well. KZbin needs to add time to your viewing numbers for people like me who put it on pause at the end to read all the comments!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

What a great camera, I'll have to see if Fuji will give me one, oh wait they already did 😁😆

[@fototripper]

but can you keep it?

[@Ktizo_Images]

You're not a bad photographer. And you take me to some of the greatest places to shoot. Oh, I forgot, thanks Brent. Seriously, sometimes some of us may forget just how good a photographer you are and that's a shame. Thanks!

[@sierragold]

The ending with that little girl... was gold! LOLOLOL

[@robertwhitemoto]

Gavin that bluejay photo was fantastic: Mads - Gavin it was EPIC: Tom - Gavin It was Absolutely Stunning: Nigel - It simply doesn't get any better than that Gavin: Adam - Meh: Robert - and @12:55 just WOW !!!

[@aramarsh]

wahahaha, that ending... Fuji, Gavin owns that camera now.

[@derdiegus]

Best end of your videos EVER!! Laughed for minutes with it! This is just a pure happiness therapy! Thanks for sharing all your trips with us!

[@joshuathreadgill4148]

I'm dying at Jaylin at the end🤣. Oh, @Fujifilm, I will be buying a gfx100 strictly because of this video... eventually...when it's on sale.

[@olo101olo]

Second book confirmed: Chasing Brent by Gavin Hardcastle

[@JLTPhotog]

"Lichen sub-scribe..."... that was masterful.

[@joshheldsinger4775]

Fujifilm, get in touch and just give Gavin the camera so that he can make a new book, called: 'CHASING AWE WITH GAVIN HARDCASTLE...and fujifilm. Theres a link, in the description...

[@ian-robinson]

I’ve spoken to Fuji and they said you can keep the camera and lenses. They also said to just ignore any emails that their staff may send asking for it to be returned.

[@tobywoolgar9517]

Any one else like it b4 watching ☺️

[@terrydekker3233]

Thank you for the stunning images and for taking me somewhere I would never have been able to see.

[@srameypr]

WOW, that square image was wonderful! Cute kid - she played along so well! Oh, and hey, Fuji, let Gavin keep the camera!

[@SuelenTiekoPhotos]

Omg Gavin! That shot with the bird in there is just perfect!

[@travissaunders4686]

Who is the instant star that stole the show at the end. She is fantastic!

[@honorab6220]

Nice images but my favorite part of the video was your #1 fan Jaylin.

[@ATiborA]

Most underrated channel EVER!

[@robgustin1487]

OUTSTANDING!! I'm sat here in the states, Michigan. We have 4 Great Lakes, miles of coastline, waterfalls, mountains, fall color and snow. I still get giddy seeing those Canadian Rocky vistas. Wonderful work Gavin! Gives all us tubby, old guys a feeling we could still get up there with you. Thank you.

[@iKeto_gal]

Gavin, that Fuji camera is made for you!! The color science of Fuji + your photographic eyes = Awesome Photographs. I will keep my fingers crossed that you one day own that magnificent camera. 😊

[@gwelland]

Wow, the girl at the end of the video is definitely a future acting star!!

[@infrequentgamer_greg]

Gavin, definitely one of your better videos of the past few months. Drop dead gorgeous Canadian scenery, mixed in with a little comedy, and even a mini review of the Fuji camera (c'mon Fuji at least give Gavin an extended loan of the gear...do you see the images he's making with your gear...what a spokesman for Fuji)! When you were pointing out the view from Brent's higher shooting location, am I correct...is there a viewing platform up there on the top of the Beehive as I saw a roofed structure of some sort? With all these beautiful locations Mr. Brent Henderson finds, I think he needs to stop being a personal trainer and do photo trip leading (of course with you, Gavin, leading the group).😉 Wonderful images Gavin of Lake Agnes! ♥

[@fototripper]

Looks like it, I never made it up there.

[@dianevose9655]

Hahaha the young lady at the end was hilarious! Brilliant vlog as always 😃👍🏻

[@thompsy2k6]

Fujifilm could not have a better photographer to showcase this camera. They should reach out and get in touch. And babybel of course.... This channel cheers me up. Thank you so much

[@dholahansr]

Fujifilm, come on, give him the camera and lenses. After all, he did lug it up the mountain and he took some beautiful photos.

[@trevorpayne2749]

Reckon you've earned that camera lugging it all the way up there! Love your images and Brent's is amazing as well. Thanks for another great video.

[@samvelsargsyan77]

Thank you for share with us this fantastic day with brilliant shoots! FujiFilm give him this magnificent camera!

[@stephengatley8144]

You deserve a million+ subscribers i don't shoot landscape but you are too funny to miss!...

[@andrewwilson9271]

There's only one word for this weeks vlog - "Magnifiqwue" - well done mate, Stunning :)

[@roybixby6135]

The Fuji GFX100s is a great Landscape camera. Its just a shame Fuji chose the smallest physical medium format sensor available. With a larger sensor Fuji could have had a fantastic Landscape camera.🦘

[@ewphotography.]

OMG I can not believe I was just too lazy to hike to Lake Agnes. Three times I´ve been fortunate to visit Lake Louise. Can´t get any better than a Fuji camera I have the Xt2. Great images.

[@MhDizzy]

Come on fuji, just give him the camera, look how happy he makes us...

[@pattymattes7124]

Awesome shots by you and Brent (Fabian, lol). That bird stealing your sandwich was incredible. I laughed so hard. That is a brave bird and he's forever immortalized in this video, lol. I have to say that ending was a bit of a shocker. Thanks for the review of the Fuji camera. I'm looking forward to the next video.

[@StephenBridgett]

Beautiful photos Gavin, love the humour. You and Amanda are looking good together.

[@EugeneMaynard]

Fuji, this show will sell a lot of your cameras! I am sure you will do the right thing!😉🙏🏾

[@johngrahamcurry1641]

Outstanding light, outstanding photographs! I wish you every success in getting Fuji Film to donate the gear to you!

[@michaelbottari6398]

In your ownm words. This images are brilliant, Gavin. Every foodstepp up ro this mountain were worth it. Really great work.

[@gerarddonovan8678]

Very funny at the end when the girl throws away Gavins book 🤣🤣🤣

[@shagmesilly78]

Stumbled upon this channel yesterday! Really liking it. I've always enjoyed British humour. Another sub for you. Nearly at the million mark ;)

[@perambulatingmike]

The light on Mt. Lefroy was stunning....in Brent's shot! Seriously, what a lovely spot and looks like it was well worth the hike...loved the last skit as well...I like this kid! Another great video, Gavin...thanks for taking us along!

[@robcoventry574]

Enjoyed this video. To answer your question, I am sure Fuji would back up the money truck if you got 250,000 subscribers. But what you convinced me is that my full frame is all I need. Too much extra work to stack-merge the extra shots.

[@redauwg911]

Fujifilm give him the camera!

[@futureexperience]

Jaylin skit at the end really capped that one off! She was hilarious. Well done with that and the shots of Lake Agnes and Beehive too!

[@robertforehand]

Fujifilm -give Gavin the camera in exchange for a copy of his book. There's a link, in the description.

[@marcusoutdoors4999]

Fujifilm… just give the man the camera. No doubt the portfolio shots coming from the camera could be featured and preserved for posterity in the upcoming “Chasing Awe… part deux” (tm)

[@duncansteward4331]

Fuji just give him the camera --- you know it makes sense. When Gavin wins Photographer of the Year, the extra publicity Fuji will get will be unimageable.

[@michaeldsns]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@2DogAle]

So many things to comment on here this time Gavin... first, stunning location this time. The traffic jam and unbelievable amount of people there was both wonderful and awful at the same time. So many places in our area have been trampled and to me, ruined by so many people going into the outdoors. It appears, the that commercialism has driven some of this. There are no good answer when it comes to how to manage it all unfortunately but it's still heart breaking to see what damage people an do to our wild areas. The video, as always was perfect combo of humor, discussions of your approach to shooting the and technical challenges of taking images from that day. The ending was absolutely hilarious, that little girl deserves an Oscar. Brent is a great addition to your vlogs with his dead pan looks at you some times and the skits he's been in with you as well. Last but not least, that Fuji GFS100s is a stunning piece of technology and produces wonderful images. It's one of those cameras, just by using it, seems to give photographers super powers when creating image. At approximately $15,000US to get a decent set up though, puts it out of most non professional, and some pros too, price ranges for that equipment. How would most people justify that cost is beyond me. I do hope that Fuji can put that camera and lenses you have used on permanent loan to you so you can keep using it and not have to fork out all that dough. See you again real soon... Cheers, Rob

[@mjsharkey]

Fuji! Give Gavin the camera! And lenses. Laughed many times in this one, as always!

[@StacheEsq]

Amazing hike. End had me laughing, against my better judgment.

[@TheLadyteesha]

I *totally* think fujifilm should let you keep it! Long term review, more shots like these, that would be fab. Love that you are teaching camera things even though it’s my boyfriend who does the photography, mixing it with humour, and just straight up entertaining and being you. 👏🏻

[@winheiMR]

Warum? er hat ja schon das Privileg und kann es testen.

[@FabiusMaximus1000]

I liked the second shot. It would be nice to see a recap of the photos at the end.

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

As an old guy there isn't much that impresses me, but thanks for taking us to a place that I think is the most amazing thing I've seen. I actually shouted. I came across some of those ripples in a piece of rock in AZ and I suspected it had to do with a sand beach. Now it's comfirmed. Lichen subscribe.

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

Always an enjoyable watch. Entertaining, and informational. The GFX100s is incredible but for me personally I'd need a whole new computer to handle those files. After a lot of sleepless nights I'm going with the X-pro 3 only because the insurance co are forcing one on me after I drown my beloved ETRSi. Fuji would be mad not to give ya that camera. Great advertising for them.

[@peterfritzphoto]

I'm with you, Paul. :-)

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

@@peterfritzphoto happy to have you on board Pete 📷😂❤️

[@grgdavis2]

Bravo Gavin! Premium content!! Incredibly beautiful images/scenery mixed with a genuine belly laugh at the end! Fuji please gift/sponsor Gavin the kit you provided!

[@domlabr]

Fujifilm, don't give Gavin the camera... give me the camera! In all seriousness, another entertaining video Gavin.

[@libork4000]

Awesome views .... Just keep the camera ... & lenses too ...

[@docfluty]

the ending was awesome!

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

Wow, those pictures look amazing. I've got to go there now.

[@grahamecarter]

Cracking video as always stunning images as ever, but how are you going to beat that ending. Tears of joy then hit with tears of laughter. So natural.

[@sz1294]

How much effort and ideas you put in your Videos, it is such a pleasure watching them! And special thanks for your explanation about your ideas about the composition.

[@davidakoubian3025]

Great video Gavin. Seeing the trails brought back lots of memories! We loved hiking to Lake Agnes, Big Beehive and the Plain of Six Glaciers. The Teahouse actually had some decent scones. Lartch trees make it even better.

[@williamturner1441]

Thank you for freezing, sweating and then freezing so I can sit here in total comfort enjoying another wonderful video. Absolutely stunning scenery and your photos are nice also.....LOL

[@vincentspratling365]

Fantastic shots and video. Nearly fell me chair with laughter at end lol

[@Kris_World]

Give him the camera Fuji-film. Just look how he’s promoting your product. I love my Fuji XT-1 even if it’s an oldie it’s such a sweet camera for photos. He’s the reason I bought my Fuji because I saw the amazing quality you can get, from watching his videos. Gavin, love your shots man! Keep up the great work!! Your videos are inspiring. Thank you for the positive vibes. Hope you’re having an awesome holiday season.

[@annetivendale8616]

Beyond stunning photographs Gavin.Can’t wait to get back to the Rockies! Fujifilm - JUST GIVE THE MAN THAT CAMERA!!

[@DeadlyFromDeep]

No no no, no trial period for the camera. That's what all of this has been! C'mon now Fujifilm, it's the season of giving, let Gavin keep the camera! He's only going to make it look better and better! Appreciate you and your videos Gavin, thank you! Shout out to Amanda as well for simply being hilarious! Bless up to you both!

[@tlpetrella]

"Piece of s**t!"....GOLD!

[@wiseguyknowsall]

Love your banter.. Subscribed.. Fuji film.. Give him the bloody camera...

😂😂😂 Another incredible video! Entertaining, relaxing, and informative all in one!

Hey Fujifilm please let Gavin keep the camera and lenses

[@johndownes319]

Definitely the Best entertaining Photographer on KZbin. Love your content. Can not wait till the next one. Great photographer as well.

[@PyroMax]

Omg that bird at lake Agnes stole my cookie too! 😂😂

[@JayMacroPhotos]

The ending was hilarious

[@IslandFilmMaker]

Fijifilm... please, Please PLEASE let this poor KZbinr KEEP your AMAZING "GFX100 CAMERA SYSTEM". I'm sure that Gavin will make great use of it, possibly, just possibly finally get an award winning images! Kidding aside, these images at LL are truly Stunning! Thx Brent ;)

[@markjagger7139]

Fujifilm give us all a camera ( tight sods) great vlog Gavin stunning shots and funny as ending 😂😂😂😂

[@Epicfail911]

Absolutely loved the video Gavin. Comedy, story and stunning shots. Brilliant mate.

[@Sashman077]

IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO FUJI: If you don’t give that camera to Gavin, Nikon will send him a Z9 to showcase how great it is for landscape photography!

[@oliverdecker1930]

Another brilliant video. And oh my God, that hilarious ending. The No. 1 fan girl was fantastic!

[@MarktrustingJesus]

absolutely gorgeous views and shots. I wish I was there, but thanks for taking us there. I enjoy the adventures so much and the humor.

[@annieturner3335]

Okay, maybe THIS episode is my favorite ;) Great content and amazing images! Fujifilm should always keep current loaners in those talented hands of yours!

[@reddogtwelve]

C’mon Fuji…..all this advertising, and the promise of more….a no brainer wouldn’t you say? Brilliant as ever Gavin. 😎😎

[@merkin22]

The bit with the kid is priceless, LMAO funny. Some great shots, as usual. Cheers!

[@Chris-13]

Fujifilm….. just give him the camera! Best ambassador for you I have seen

[@astralbody]

Another smashing video! You now even employ birds to take your food! I love those Jays! I was at an alpine lake in Washington and had a bunch of Gray Jay buddies eating lunch with me! Nice... Lake Louise is crazy! Let's see, where is my photo site list...scratch off Lake Louise area...oof! I use photography to get away from people... ;) Beautiful area! Gavin, psst..there are reflections of the people in the water where you removed them. Awesome shots! Fujifilm GFX system is great, agree with your assessment. Fujifilm, give em the camera! ;) the ending is the total best! LOLOLOL hugs and love! Cheers!

[@tonyvaldivia7300]

C'mon Gavin!!! Stay Humble. Fantastic photos for the day!!

[@Martin-nu6ym]

Like how the Stellar's jay stayed in the shot for you. Beautiful shots.

[@aandrep007]

Hey Fuji! Give the man the camera! 😃

[@claredelune9282]

Fujifilm give him the camera and 3 lenses - it'll be a Merry Christmas 🤶 🎄 😀 ❤
