10/20, Saturday 10am. Lumix and Pro Photo hosts wildlife photographer and filmmaker Gerry Ellis in two session. The 2nd one is at 1pm. After the talk, there'll be a demo of Lumix gears in the store. But I had to leave before he finished in order to catch a bus which runs only every 2-3 hours.
I really enjoyed this talk. Ellis told us why he chose Lumix GH series (5x stabilizer, 4K video at 60 frames/s, compact size) and how he packs and uses his equipment in the field. He showed his carry-on backpack with everything he needed for any project. In his camera bag: 3 lenses (7-14mm, 35-100, 100-400), a spare camera body, Syrp 10 stop ND filter, Syrp tripod head, Syrp panning motion Ginie Mini, batteries. He carries a camera and Gorilla Pod in hand. The rest of his carry-on bag holds a Luci lamp, microphones, flash, a small harness, and various other gears I don't understand. He also passed around some of these - the camera is still too heavy for my liking. He also recommended a YouTube camera review DSLR Video Shooter.
