I also use the Pocket 3 for behind the scenes stuff and other things, HOWEVER for most my work I need much higher video and photo quality for client work. So while I usually have it with me I don't mention it in this video

@JevenDovey 6 месяцев назад

Nice minimal setup. Just missing that A9III... I need to do a video about my bag setup. 2024 is all about simplifying

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I agree and thankfully now the tools we have available make it possible! No more having to take 2 camera bodies for video/photo work or many different lenses even. I love this setup especially after field testing it with you when you were up here!

@michaelpoczynek 4 месяца назад

Very well done, as always, Jake. Happy spring! 😀

@JakeSloan 4 месяца назад

Thanks! You too!

You’re welcome!

Firm believer in being a minimalist. But also being prepared. Nice Video Jake

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Agreed Bob! I didn't show it in this video but I always have a first aid kit and a Garmin inreach, as well as what is necessary to handle whatever sorts of weather I will be dealing with

@jaymeez 6 месяцев назад

Your footage is very crisp. Really impressed

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thank you!

@wendywitzig119 6 месяцев назад

Sweet compact pack. That rechargeable hand warmer looks interesting.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

those hand warmers are a MUST for me in the winter both to warm my hands up and to keep my batteries from freezing up

@tommydaynjer5334 6 месяцев назад

Really like this gear setup video, but I’ve been really loving all your videos recently! Could you do a cold weather clothing video? I noticed you talk about the gloves in a previous video but you wear the same stuff in all sorts of really cold looking environments so I’d love to hear your cold weather gear for hiking!

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thanks so much Tommy! I can definitely start including some stuff about how I work in cold weather and the gear that helps make it possible.

@hasenmyer 6 месяцев назад

One of the few creators not pumping a bunch of stuff they got for free...I appreciate that! I can't wait for my Shimoda urban bag. Will be interested in your view of the Rode v Sony v DJI wireless mic showdown.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! I am working on the comparison video and have a good portion of it filmed so it's coming!

@MrEddieNunez 6 месяцев назад

Cool bag and nice minimal setup. In early 2023, I went to a meeting.... similar to AA, and swore not to buy anymore bags. I was an adict.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Eddie I might have the same issue lol

@markkempton4579 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for the overview! I had not thought about hand warmers for my gear! Seeing this, I'm really regretting going with a 35L pack on the last Prime Day. It's still in the box because it's just so large. I told myself I'd want to carry both drones AND camera gear, but in reality, I'm going to be taking one or the other. 25L would have been plenty.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

the 25L is great for this but I think for most stuff the 30L would be perfect. I will probably get that one next

@brianmatiash 6 месяцев назад

Great call on Shimoda. I have been using their bags for several years (and was an ambassador for them). Love their ethos and attention to detail. The Explore v2 bag is probably the best bag you can get. I use the Explore v2 30 because it fits my 16” MBP. Otherwise, I’d likely go down to the 25. I’ve been eyeing the Peak Design travel tripod to possibly replace my Really Right Stuff travel tripod. I’ve used the hell out of it and it treats me well, but I feel like it’s a bit too tall to be a bonafide travel tripod, even when folded.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

yeah I love this one, definitely going to be adding a 30 or 35 for when I need a bit more

@ShimodaDesigns 6 месяцев назад

Biased perspective but that was great video :) Thanks for making this. I'm also a fan of simple packing and must say you have a very neat and tidy set up. 👍

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thank you and thanks for making such great products for people like me!

@lynsmith1096 6 месяцев назад

Good review and nice Backpack.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thanks!

@GertKracht 6 месяцев назад

I use the same backpack in 25 and 35 liters. For now we don't need the handwarmers, but I will keep them in mind for the moment winter decides to return in the Netherlands. Temperatures keep being mild. Very mild.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Nice!!!

@GUANTA23K 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, Shimoda has insanely cool backpacks. Imo the new action line is even better than the explore.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I think I might pick up an action 30 or 35 for longer multi day trips for sure!

@steveborghardt 6 месяцев назад

Nice - reminds me of my Lowepro BP 450AW - I've bought 2 of these bags over the last 12 years of heavy use. Your choice of the Air 3 over the Air 2S intrigues me. I would think the 20mp 1 inch sensor would beat out the smaller 12mp sensor on the air 3. Great informative video as always.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

for Photo the Air 2s absolutely beats the air 3 video is closer but since the Air 3 has the 3x (70mm) camera as well and much longer flight time it's a much better fit overall for my uses

@chrissnyder4439 4 месяца назад

I've had the 35L bag for about 3 years now and didn't know about the pockets inside that side flap. I've always used the mesh you can pull out for a tripod, but never opened it beyond that, lol.

@JakeSloan 4 месяца назад

Nice!

@SCAerialsSteveCarpenter 6 месяцев назад

Excellent minimalist pack. Thanks for the overview and beautiful surroundings. So, how soon before you pull the trigger on the A9?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Steve!! I'm not sure yet but probably shortly after it starts shipping... I just need to sell my A1 first

@aboyandhisdrone512 6 месяцев назад

Ouch…my pockets just hurt me as soon as clicked on the links! Lol. Love the bag though. I might have to add it to a wish list!

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Definitely if you are looking for a great and purpose flexible camera bag give them a look

@DDHDTV 5 месяцев назад

The Shimoda bags look real good, pretty hefty price at 400€ though

@JakeSloan 5 месяцев назад

definitely not cheap!

@moritzneubauer 6 месяцев назад

Great and interesting Video.😊 So you normaly do not have the pocket 3 in your bag?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I usually do have it with me and use it to film BTS stuff, but for this trip I forgot to charge the battery 😔

@felixarm 6 месяцев назад

Jake, would you mind sharing a link to the gloves you wear? I would love to grab a pair. Thanks!

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

photographygloves.com/collections/photography-glove/products/milford-photography-glove these are the ones in this video, I also have their liners and arctic mitts too.

@stigfloberghagenphotography 5 месяцев назад

Nice review. Will this bag fit a couple of more lenses?

@JakeSloan 5 месяцев назад

it would fit a couple more small lenses like sony prime lenses 16-35gm II etc, You could probably fit a 70-200 f4 or 70-200gm II if you rearranged a few things

@ZOB4 6 месяцев назад

I have the slightly larger Shimoda bag - the 30L and love it for hiking. Do you find that the hand warmers being directly up against your gear is a problem? I would be a little worried about putting them in the main compartment of my bag.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I don't find them to get too hot on the lowest setting and single sided warming only

@karloskarb 4 месяца назад

Hardcore to do this outside in the snow.

@JakeSloan 4 месяца назад

It's my life lol

@gcarmichael 6 месяцев назад

The new A9III is not half the camera the A1 is. A9III ISO base at 250 with higher noise, lower dynamic range and less than half the megapixels. Stick with the A1 in the bag.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Hang on, test and review video of the A9III is coming up next on this channel

@SimplyScotlandPhotography 6 месяцев назад

I have to ask buddy sorry 😐. What's the weight with all that equipment in it? I remember packing my DSLR and 3/4 different lenses into my Slingshot bag. Then heading off trekking only to be feeling the pain a few hours into the journey 😮, I absolutely loved the slingshot bags, Currently use one still for my mini drones.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

This weighs in under 20lbs with a full water bottle

@PaulVang 6 месяцев назад

No gimbal for the larger camera? Nice setup by the way.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

No I find I don't need one that often if I am careful, especially since the 24-105 has OSS built in, the newer camera bodies (A9III, A7rV and A7cII) all have dynamic active stabilization which is insane for handheld stuff too. That's one of the reasons I am considering upgrading to the A9III

@andyarts8382 6 месяцев назад

Jake, I'm curious what fluid head do you use with the tripod?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I don't use a fluid head tripod at the moment, I've been looking at the Sachler ones though

@yeeisme 6 месяцев назад

I’ve been looking for a good travel camera backpack and I was looking at this bag too. It has a lot of great features, but how do you find the packs base weight of 4.5 LB? Most of my camping bags come in at under 2 Lb and hiking are under 16 oz. What features make a bag so worth it you’ll accept a higher weight?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

so for me having the bag designed around protecting camera gear makes it worth while to have a little extra weight. To be fair many camera bags can run 6-8lbs which is too much lol

@gordon3988 6 месяцев назад

Great pack for the camera gear for front country, but it doesn’t look like any room for hiking gear…extra warm clothes (down jacket), rain jacket, food, a few liters of water, maybe mini crampons, maybe a small shelter etc all needed for any hiking. For me I try to keep camera gear to around 1kg if on a hiking trip but in fairness these are 20km days often in the mountains, so camera backpacks too limited and of course, I’m a recreational camera user so the kind of wonderful videos you make aren’t an option unless I want a huge pack…and then there is my lack of skill😊.

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I agree and anything more than day trips will require a larger bag (I should do a video about this as well lol) for the jackets yes there is room in the front and top to add a bit, in this case here I am wearing both lol. The red is a goretex arcteryx alpha SV shell which works well in rain and snow. Not shown in this was my small first aid kit and Garmin in reach which I always have with me just in case!

@perfectlylonely 6 месяцев назад

Have you had any resistance, from the airlines, about your tripod as a carry-on? If you've covered that topic before, perhaps you could direct me to that video?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

Only traveling from Mexico oddly enough

@perfectlylonely 6 месяцев назад

@@JakeSloan... I've been two years traveling Mexico, Central America and 'am now in Peru. There have been those times when I wished I had my tripod. At the Guatamala City airport, I was hassled about my collapsible hiking poles (stored inside my carry-on). Thanks for your reply.

@StormSignal 6 месяцев назад

What happened to the Pocket 3 you have been raving on about?

@JakeSloan 6 месяцев назад

I use it to film a ton of BTS stuff and the very last shot of this video was the Pocket 3, but for most my work my clients demand a bit higher quality

@StormSignal 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for your response. Can one infer that you do not recommend the Pocket 3 for commercial work?
