Changing the focal length while the drone moving forward is a genius act 0:20

Duuuuude these are amazing! Can’t wait to travel with y’all soon hopefully

[@TKNORTH]

Thanks so much dude! It would be epic to link up 🙌

I found telephoto lenses very helpful in capturing landscapes with short stubby mountains or ones that are just too far away. Did you use the 100-400 for the timelapse at 7:44 ?

[@TKNORTH]

I said it in another comment, but although I tend to use the wide angle most frequently, I really do love a good telephoto shot! Yep that was at 100mm :)

[@danielnnng]

Love the vid TK! super helpful

[@TKNORTH]

Yooo thanks bro! When the vlogs coming I wanted to put your KZbin up haha

[@DailyPassenger]

🎬 Your Mount Fuji vlog was so well-made! The way you edited the footage and added music and sound effects made it a joy to watch. I am a fan now, stay in touch.

[@TKNORTH]

Glad you enjoyed it :) thanks so much for that!

[@janjamesramos247]

Yes, sometimes you would have to use a telephoto or zoom lenses for landscape. It's not always wide or ultrawide lenses.

[@TKNORTH]

I still use the wide angle zoom most frequently, but quite often it’s the telephoto shots that make for a more interesting composition in my mind!

Hello I found the view of the hotel fascinating. May I know which hotel were you staying at for shooting the timelapse? Thank you! 4:24

[@TKNORTH]

Hiya! The place is called ヴィラス浅間の庵 - always seems to be written in Japanese even on google maps and booking . com so it can be tricky to find! But I believe it translates to Villas Asama no iori. Hope that helps!

[@CARLO.OBRIEN]

Fooooji gang bro!!! 85mm for me

[@TKNORTH]

I need to use 85mm more haha Keen to see more from Japan brooooo

[@JamesBond-qv2ht]

Thinking about bringing a drone on my Japan vacation. Is Japan drone friendly or are you very limited in where you can fly (outside of cities of course)? Also any paperwork to bring a drone into the country?

[@mikedyson_]

Sweet photos man! You guys got some epic conditions at Fuji.

[@TKNORTH]

Thanks heaps dude! They were pretty decent 👌🏻

[@arunasrimkus1922]

For a beginner it is really hard to use a wide-angle zoom, since it includes so much into the photo... Unless you have access to big mountains and vistas, I'd recommend a mid-range zoom like 16-55 for aps-c or 24-70 for full frame cameras

[@TKNORTH]

What’s your favourite lens for landscapes 👀

[@juliancanalesphoto]

for me if it’s one lens, its the 70-200. It’s just the most versatile for me, and for a two lens combo its 70-200 and the 16-35 for sure. Cant be beat imo

[@TKNORTH]

Hard to argue with that! Lately I’ve opted for the 100-400 over the 70-200. Still ultimately prefer a 70-200 I think, just the lightweight 100-400 I currently have is hard to go pass!

[@bon1lhv]

Great content! Congrats! One question, Im travelling to Japan in the end of this year and I would like to know how it is to fly a drone? What are the restrictions? Thanks in advice

[@sby1076]

Dang, going to Japan soon and thank you for this tip....I was thinking 24-105 gonna be enough but I might just bring laowa 12mm as well I guess

[@seanchua71]

Hi. I will be traveling to Mt Fuji next Feb. Which lens is best for taking landscape of mt fuji? 16-35mm?

[@bluezikylez9743]

[@shahd.8890]

[@BraydennnB]

Any considerations for drone flying in Japan?

[@jasoncaban7056]

Thanks for this video!! I goint to japan i think how len i need to shot fuji i think i dont need 70-200 i think 24-105 enough

[@kevinheg8814]

Hey, I'm also traveling to Japan soon. Got the Sony A7 IV with Tamron 17-28 F/2.8 I have to decide between Tamron 28-75 F2.8 G2 or Sony 24-105 F/4 as the daily lens, which would you take? Better lowlight and smaller size or a little bit more zoom and also a little bit wider with F/4. And I will add a 50mm or 85mm F/1.8 for some night shots. Also got the Sigma 35 F/1.4 but I think it´s way to big and heavy for this vacation. Please help me out :D

[@nicholassmith7723]

What did you end up taking? Going to Japan at the end of summer. Right now I have the Sigma 20, 35, and 65mm f2 primes. As well as the Sony 85mm 1.8 and Tamron 28-75mm G2.

[@kevinheg8814]

@@nicholassmith7723 toke the 24-105 f/4 and Sigma 35 f/1.4 + 85 f/1.8 But I would stick with the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 G2 and swap the sigma 35 with the Sony 35 f/1.8 17-28 was pretty good. Maybe swap the 85 for a 70-200mm

Old Mitch: Landscape lens = 24-70 2.8 Portrait lens = 24-70 2.8 Vlog lens = 24-70 2.8 😂
