What happens if you're stranded on a deserted island... but somehow still need to shoot content? In this fun episode, Travis and Chris challenge each other to pick a equipment they would trust if they…
Christian DiazHostSo let's start with camera body first.
going to say you're not going to go with the a7 IV because it's super sunny and it's going to overheat.
That's true, but I just know with the wedding I just did, I couldn't see the monitor.
You know, this isn't a camera I actually have, but I think what I would actually pick is, well, actually, no, I'm going to change my mind.
We can only have one piece of lighting gear, and there might be a lot of evening shooting going on.
If that's the case, you want to have really good low light.
megapixels are good enough so like let's say if i do have to do something that's photo related yeah i can you know it's a 12 megapixels it'll work um i know it has like great 4k all that kind of stuff uh built-in proxies like anything i would kind of feel like would be needed um but then i have the low white capabilities that like just you know the a7r5 isn't bad but it's not going to be the same so
answer.
But yeah, viewfinder would be great too because you can just see.
So I think that would be my pick.
