You Need These in Your Camera Bag! + Canon R7 Photo Adventure

[@debrapeasley2606]

The products look great. But even better were the music and the birds! I'm always amazed by their resiliency. That Greater Yellow Legs at 3:42 was the picture of forbearance, braving the cold, wind and rain. So beautiful.

Hi Scott good to see you bounced back strong from your health incident 🙏

[@WILDALASKA]

Thanks

[@OregonOutdoors1]

Visited Alaska a month ago on a cruise. Thank you for the motivation to see your amazing state. Glad you’re on the road to recovery.

[@WILDALASKA]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Kellysher]

Wow, that wind looked wicked! I’m fairly new. I’m not sure if this makes sense, but if it’s too windy to hold the camera steady, I take off the lens cover. What are your thoughts on that? Love the channel! My only comment is to keep the photo specs on the screen a tad bit longer. I do use them as a learning tool. Thanks.

[@WILDALASKA]

Lens hood stays on just to protect the lens. You have to set yourself up to hopefully not have the wind drag your shot away. Doesn't always work.

[@lindacooper480]

I'm using your great set-up for my R7. So helpful as I learn the new mirrorless. Is the Llano charger you're showing here the correct one for the R7 batteries? The specs say for Sony.

[@WILDALASKA]

There should be an option to select camera brand for the charger.

[@GTGeorgeW]

hi Scott, what about a camera bag that you find usefull, since it will have to carry long lenses?

[@WILDALASKA]

I have several, but my main backpack bag is an Fstop (Shimodos are great also) and my non hiking flight bag is a Tenba Cineluxe. I'll be making a video on Wildlife gear flight bags and one on how I carry gear in my Bronco in the field.

[@vimalneha]

You give the distance, that is a great aid. Thanks for that. The review is good.

[@WILDALASKA]

Glad it was helpful!

[@stuartblink]

Beautiful, beautiful footage. It is especially meaningful as I’ve been stuck all weekend with Covid - so was my little bit of outdoors

[@WILDALASKA]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@brianrose2487]

Great images! Battery charger is very cool and on my list. Airshow in a couple weeks r7 and 100-500 should be fun. Take care and good health

[@NECPER]

Thanks for your photographs and video. Your good explanation and recommendation on what to have in the bag was valuable. Thanks for sharing. / Per

[@WILDALASKA]

Glad you enjoyed it!

I kove you are using the R7 , this is my new camera and can see what you can do with it .........I nice to see that you can use the lower end camera and do great photo , there is many video with the other higher end , I understand the quality etc, but for most of us this is great.

[@WILDALASKA]

The camera does very well. We had some of the worst conditions to shoot in that day. No light, rain coming right into the lens, all kinds of craziness. Hope you are enjoying the new camera 😄

[@birbs4life174]

Let’s hope for the R7 Mark II! ❤

[@WILDALASKA]

[@lanep4322]

You're going to need a good wood fire and hot coffee after a day out in that weather. Thanks for the gear info.

[@WILDALASKA]

Definitely

Hi Scott, i'm a fan from italy , i want to thank you for all of your great work you do on your youtube channel . I'm looking for some advice , i'm interested in wildlife photography specially "big" mammals like deer, roe deer, chamois etc , not very focused in small bird , only large like eagle and vulure. My current set-up is a bridge ( lumix fz300). i'm undecided if a r7 with rf 100-500 would suit my needs , i have watch and read a lot about this camera and there are a lot of different opinion expecially in low light performance and i can not take a decision , r5 is out of budget , do you think this combo will be the right choice? Or it will be best to wait untill early 2025 if a new r7ii comes out?

[@WILDALASKA]

No clue when Canon will release anything really. you may even look at an older EF 100-400 lens but the combo you listed would be ok for those needs

[@VABrowneMDPhD]

Scott, thanks for another great video. How do you protect your gear from wind and rain?

[@WILDALASKA]

Raincoat from Lenscoat. Lenscoat Raincoat amzn.to/3BuKqVk

[@derricksalisbury7631]

Great info Scot some useful gear review 👍🏻

[@WILDALASKA]

Thanks 👍

[@jasontanner2163]

When you note the distance to subject, is this an estimate, or is this piece of information shown somewhere in the camera viewfinder or file EXIF data? (It's something I've always been curious about with my R7, but never been able to find.)

[@WILDALASKA]

It's in the EXIF. Choose settings in Lightroom for your EXIF data and add it there

[@isoawe1888]

Does that device transmit to an iPad ? That would be useful

[@WILDALASKA]

it doesn't but you can get a converter to input from the receiver

[@davidsherman3462]

Great video images

[@WILDALASKA]

Thanks

[@Call_Me_PeW]

so, when the final review of Nikon Z6 III?

[@WILDALASKA]

Hopefully soon,. I actually had to send it into Nikon as I got a lot of volcanic sand in the buttons and locked up the Af-ON button. Just got it back 2 days ago. Great service from Nikon also.

[@wesb123]

[@WILDALASKA]

🐻👍

[@owenpeller6471]

It looks like this charger is only for Sony. I have Canon.

[@WILDALASKA]

All of them have Sony, canon, and Nikon versions.
