Ever wondered how I film my videos? Here's the lightweight camera gear I use to film all my hikes and backpacking trips! I do not come from a videography background, and neither does my producer Rainer, and so when we film our outdoor adventures we like to take an easy-to-use camera kit that still delivers professional looking video, and I think this is the perfect set-up! If you're looking to start capturing your outdoor adventures, start vlogging your thru-hike, or just need lightweight camera gear for any other purpose, this is the perfect kit (plus accessories!) to get you started and feeling like a pro! Happy filming friends, see you outside!

For anyone wondering - the camera we use for indoor videos (like this one) is the Sony A7sIII with a 16-35mm f/4 lens. I have taken that into the field as well, but it’s kinda heavy and far pricier than the ZV-E1. And less beginner friendly too.

I used to use a DSLR, then I was born again and started using a camcorder. It's not your soccer mom's camcorder, but what's known as a "prosumer" grade camera. They start at about $800, but because you don't have to buy multiple lenses like you have to with a DSLR/Mirrorless, it's all you pay for it besides maybe a mic which is about $50 from Rode. Compact, light, no need for opening up your camera body and exposing it to the elements while swapping out lenses, 25-600mm zoom (it's like having a telephoto, macro, wide lens all in one body) and now they come with onboard adjustments for typical stuff (ISO, aperture, etc..). Just pop it on your tripod (or gimble), open it and WALA! ...instant video. No fidgeting around, no having to trying to tailor it to the shot and the autofocus is insanely simple. It's a point & shoot on steroids (unlike DSLR/Mirrorless that require readjusting everything every time you move it). I can carry a whole kit in one small pod (about 8X3") and that'll hold 3 batteries (for a good 5 hours of constant shooting) and OH! they don't overheat or break up the footage in clips every 30 minutes! You can literally just put the camera on and let it record for hours without worrying about it having a meltdown. DSLR/Mirrorless cameras are photography cameras that shoot videos, but camcorders are legitimate videography cameras. All the hunters are switching back to camcorders now after losing so much footage with their DSLRs & mirrorless cameras. The footage is nice too. I suck at taking my time and getting nice shots, but the one time I did it (the moon video on my channel), I was stunned at the footage. It was like NASA took the shot. I could clearly see all the craters on the moon. I have a GoPro too, but GoPro is like Adobe Premier Pro. It's overpriced and unreliable. When it works, it's AWESOME, but when it doesn't, it's horrible and frustrating. It's too finicky and I can't stand taking good footage and HOPING that my GoPro actually caught it.

[@lanecountybigfooters5716]

What BRAND do you use? I could afford that. I really want to work on my channel, and I'm a freakin' Luddite and am not good with tech. I need the KISS principle applied here.

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

@lanecountybigfooters5716 Panasonic VX1, but Sony makes a great camcorder too.

[@nerdlord2411]

The DJI Osmo Action 4 Outperforms GoPro in almost every way possible. The new low light sensor is a godsend. The batteries last much longer and the charging system is amazing; you can charge 3 batteries at once and it takes about 10 minutes to get one to 80%. The camera doesn't overheat or glitch out which is a notorious problem for GoPro. It can also go underwater twice as deep. The last thing I want when I am out in the wilderness is a camera that doesn't work or loses data. Last year I used to Osmo Action 3 and had it recording every moment of my backpacking adventures for 8-12 hours a day. Only time I turned it off was when I was swapping batteries. I pair the Osmo Action 4 with a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra for my backpacking adventures. Both are super compact and lightweight. They both do 4k @ 60FPS.

[@LaurenRoerick]

Good to know!

[@Cool-Story-Studios]

The Osmo Action 4 also connects directly with the DJI Mic 2

[@bw2314]

The BURP is back! SIGH of relief. 😁

[@ERM_photo]

A little late to comment but just have to point out that the special mounting plate Miranda has on the trekking pole tripod adapter (super cool btw) is based on the Arca-Swiss standard of mounting plates, so if you have ANY Arca-Swiss compatible plate it will work with the tripod mount, HOWEVER not all Arca-Swiss plates are created equal, the Peak Designs capture clip (the backpack attachment used for the ZV-E1) will pretty much ONLY work with their own Peak Design plate because the mechanism used for the capture clip has the same size slot as an Arca-Swiss plate but doesn't only use a clamping force on the sides of the plate it uses the small holes and triangle-ish extrusions on the bottom of the plate as well. TLDR is Peak Design capture clip plate will work with ANY Arca-Swiss mount but not all Arca-Swiss compatible plates will work with the capture clip. I just realized how big the wall of text I wrote actually is, hopefully I helped give anyone curious far more details than necessary and maybe save them like idk a dollar or two on mounting hardware.

[@daenathedreamy9053]

That's exactly what I was wondering! Thank you soooo much So basically, I I already have the Peak Design clip, I could buy any Arca mounting plate to screw onto my gorilla pod and then I'm good to go quick and easy? I have both DSLR and GoPro on my straps on a clip and could easily switch any camera to the tripod?

[@ERM_photo]

@@daenathedreamy9053 effectively any Arca plate yes, there are some weird like SUPER specific ones that don't like the peak clips for some weird reason but I've come across maybe like two of those in the practically hundreds of mounts I've used over the years.

[@kevgoes]

I've seen people strap a hand warmer (the kind you put in your mittens) to the gopro to help the battery last in the cold. Might be something for you to try.

[@miketheglassguy7568]

I was just thinking this morning I wish more backpacking KZbinrs would give some tips on how they film their amazing content. As an up and coming content creator thank you so much!!

[@crappyvideoswithrob4150]

This was awesome and I would love to see more about how your crew creates the content.

[@fiskmasadventures]

As a Gopro user, I can definately recommend a couple of useful accessories to that as well - the "Gopro Hero Media Mod" gives you a better "internal" microphone, but also gives you a 3.5 mm jack so you can use wireless microphones by connecting the reciever to the Media Mod, as well as a USB-C socket for charging the battery or uploading files into the computer straight via the Media Mod instead. You can also get the "Gopro Light Mod", which is a small LED light which you attach by sliding it into a socket ontop of the Media Mod, and then you have a light when for example vlogging in low light.

Thanks for recommending LMNT. When I hiked in the Camino in Spain, I found and loved canned orange Aquarius, but can't get that here in the USA. I'm not a fan of a lot of other electrolyte options I tried. LMNT is great. It is lightweight and easy to use. Can't wait to try it in a hot coffee.

[@MirandaGoesOutside]

Sweet, happy to hear that!

[@holaa.lauraa]

Awesome video! As someone who has backpacked exactly once and used a DJI gimbal + iPhone to record the trip, this is super useful in the case that I want to get more serious with it ✨also it’s just fun to know more about the behind the scenes :) Honestly would love to also know even more technical specifics of y’all shoot (4k vs 1080?) and it’d be interesting to hear about the post-process work as well!

[@crackasour]

Awesome tips! I'd recommend ditching the camera cage and handle though (I would ditch the strap too)! Useless weight that won't make your videos look better, cheers!

[@RainerGolden]

Totally agree they add weight, but I find it worth it to have the handle and cage. We film outside all the time and the cage helps protect the camera from drops, as does the strap since I regularly have to use my hands for things, and often suddenly. On a recent trip I misjudged a step off of a rock and had to suddenly shoot out my hands to stop myself from falling flat on my face from a decent height. Because of the strap, the camera just swung from my neck and was undamaged when I let go of it. Without the strap it falls 6 feet and hits a rock. Another benefit is that the strap helps me go without a gimbal for some stabilization. Miranda and I are new to being videographers, relatively, and so our muscles have not developed that experienced camera-person smoothness. To help with that when we're filming we just stretch the strap against our necks to make it taught, and use our entire body as a counter weight for smoother and easier pans, tilts and dollies. Not perfect, but does help. Also, the mounting options for things like onboard mics, HDMI clamps, and so on, is great with the cage seeing as the ZV-E1 lacks a good deal places where mounts can be attached to the camera body itself. My hands also get quite sweaty and warm and so by having my hands off the camera on the handle, especially when hiking, I can keep it from collecting sweat and overheating and roll it for long periods. So for me it's weight that's worth it for far easier handling of the camera, even though in terms of picture quality they don't add anything. Definitely agree with you that in an ideal world we don't use a cage or strap or handle and save the weight. Miranda will often take that handle off when she films solo.

[@RainerGolden]

Miranda has also just told me she doesn't want the cage on there either, haha! So hey... definitely a personal preference thing!

[@mihaidavid359]

For pure vlogging i thing the best you can get is the DJI OSMO Pocket line of cameras.For outdoors and mountaineering camera nothing can beat Olympus / OM System in terms of weather resistance , image stabilization and weight- compact footprint.I had my 9 years old Olympus EM5 Mk.2 inside the tent at -20'C and the next morning was just ready to take some more photos.Beside-it was a frozen solid bottle of water and a happy me to be in the mountains.Since then i upgraded to Olympus OM1 and is even better 😍

[@ThenaturalmedicAdventures]

Agree I use the pocket cam for most of my content

[@JennOuttDoors]

Great tips thanks for sharing

[@MakeItWithCalvin]

I use a GoPro Hero 9 with a custom 3D-printed handle when my friend and I go on adventures, and for all the issues, it gets the job done. My friend LOVES doing water shots and having the camera already water-resistant is a HUGE plus, not to mention almost anyone can use it with minimal to no training. And you can pick them up second-hand pretty cheap if you are on a tight budget.

[@krakatoasundra]

[@TaylorPassofaro]

I think I can help alleviate some annoyance at 12:18! I used to use an arca swiss screw mount to allow me to use the peak designs clip and a tripod, but twisting the knob to attach it to the tripod was always annoying and I never knew if I tightened it enough. After some digging, I found that the F38 system has a super solid quick release that also has a plate that works with peak designs in one direction and the F38 system in the other. Much faster, much more secure. Maybe it will be a nice upgrade for your setup.

[@tommy-vella]

Have you tried the GoPro Enduro Batteries? They are made for cold conditions and I use them in winter all the time. Winter camping, ski touring, snowboarding... It is night and day compared to the normal batteries.

[@alangauld6079]

I love the idea of the tripod adapter gadget but sadly I only use a single trekking pole. And I suspect adding two legs probably pushes the weight close to my current travel tripod. (Although it would still extend higher I guess!) Something to investigate for sure.

[@scameronsky]

Thanx for the video! Love it... but... How do you put your gopro to the shoulder strap AND to the shorty at the same time? Does that double mount come with the shoulder strap? Would love to have that combo..

[@WishfulWanderings]

Great video! Thank you for sharing. I have always struggled with camera gear on my hiking trips and just because of the ease of use i end up using the gopro the most. How is the stabilization on Sony ZV1? Do you ever walk while filming on the Sony or is it pretty much used on a a tripod?

I have a knockoff version of the GoPro selfie/tripod and I like it, but it can be a little tippy sometimes if I have it extended all the way up. I wish it had longer legs.

[@LindsayDaly]

I carry a lot of similar stuff, but instead of a GoPro (I have one, but find it too temperamental to rely on - it died on me during a 21 mile run yesterday because it was too cold!), I typically carry an Osmo Pocket. - it's awesome for trail running too because it has a tiny gimbal for stability and the shot doesn't shake all over the place! I gotta get me one of those GoPro tripods though, that's sweet! I'll think of it as a consolation prize since I can't exactly afford one of those nice carbon fiber PeakDesign tripods that I so desperately want haha.

[@MirandaGoesOutside]

Oh my gosh, same!! Those PeakDesign tripods are an arm and a leg. I've heard good things about the Osmo Pocket - I'll have to check it out!

[@DanielOutdoors]

True facts: 1. There is a Low Light Mode for GoPro (Since i use them diving) 2. The GoPro has endura Batteries to help with the cold. 3. The Lumix GH5 or G9 are more Waterproof than that Sony, no need for 15 USD pouches. 4. I am my own producer and camera crew, lol

[@SpykeHellboy]

you need to get enduro batteries for the gopro, the grey ones. I used them when i ski and they are good, they're not discharging

[@danielpittman889]

Sony cameras are very good. I've always been an Olympus guy myself - from my OM-1 back in the film days, to my current EM-1 mk3. It can shoot an 80 megapixel image from a tripod and 50mp handheld. Apparently it shoots good video too, but I am a terrible videographer!

How are you guys getting along with the camera rain cover? I use the lenscoat rain cover, because i usually use it with a 600mm lens. But i found that i get condensation inside quite fast and think that this is probably more dangerous to the camera (at least something rugged like a D850 etc.) than just straight rain that can be wiped off easily from time to time... But honestly - it's just a (mildly educated) guess. So would be interesting to hear how you're getting along with camera raincovers.

Honestly, it gets lost far too often 🥴 I'll tuck it in my pocket or in the hip pack, but sometimes it walks off and I proceed to panic until I find it.

I love the GoPro when it works but it can be a bit finicky sometimes about micro SD cards in my experience-- sometimes it just doesn't want to read them. Drives me nuts! Have you ever tried the Osmo Pocket? I've heard good things about them from other hikers but haven't tried one myself. Also this is not related to anything, but your hair looks great in this video!

I was thinking of switching to the Pocket Osmo, because a few channels I follow use it, but it's not water resistant at all. So you need to use something else when it rains, which would be a PITA. It does work in super cold temps tho, which the Go Pro does not! So they each have frustrating pros and cons.

​@@musingwithreba9667Can the GoPro be powered by on external battery? Maybe run a USB cable from battery pack inside a pocket?

I love my Osmo Pocket! I film trail runs with it. I have the exact same problem with those damn GoPro micro SDs, too....I'm forced to use the app and transfer footage to my phone, then laptop. Ugh

[@musingwithreba9667]

@@memathews yes and no. To use an external battery pack you have to remove the battery/Sd card door, which then makes it not waterproof anymore and dust can get in the SD card slot.
