what's up guys welcome back to another video today we are talking everyday carrie this is everyday
tech everyday camera gear that i carry around with me on pretty much a daily basis starting off with
the biggest most important piece of tech for me anyway personally is my macbook pro this is the 16
inch baseline macbook pro so it's 16 gigs of ram it has the m1 pro processor just an absolute beast
of a computer i edit pretty much every single video on this machine or i do edit every single
video on this machine an absolute workhorse of a computer it is sitting behind me right now when
i'm in this setup it is plugged into my display out the back here but this fits nice and snugly
into the camera bag that i use whenever i'm on a shoot wherever i am out and about in london
or anything like that i will bring this camera bag with me this is by manfrotto it is a pro
light version i absolutely love it it is sturdy but also quite light and you can see like in the
compartment it has component compartments for everything as in a full compartment
sometimes these are separated so you can maximize the amount of camera gear
that uh your bag can hold depending on the shoot i might size this up or size it down in terms of
the amount of gear the amount of lenses that i'm bringing with me but on the whole this is
the bag that i bring and all of this everyday carry goes into that bag in terms of a phone
my daily driver is a google pixel six i've done a number of videos on the channel here actually
color coordinates between my top today that wasn't actually planned but the pixel 6 is an amazing
uh little phone like fantastic value i do i've spoken about it i wish that i've gone for the
pixel 6 pro personally just because i would have liked that extra zoom range that that gives you
but super happy with the pixel 6. i've never experienced tons of bugs which a lot of people
i know a lot of people have with the pixel 6 but for me just an absolute great phone a really good
daily driver does the headphones on a daily basis um i actually do use apple airpods even though
i'm on a pixel i know that that might make some android purists kind of question me as someone
who covers tech on youtube um but like they're just in terms of fit my favorite headphones that
i've ever found um they're not great in terms of integration obviously with android like you can
use them and find them and pair them and connect but the most importantly for me it is just
purely about about fit in my ears i can use these on flights i could use them for genuinely about
six seven hours without my ears hurting so that is why i continue to use apple airpods a camera of
choice that i use for any travel my sort of more everyday camera if i'm doing a shoot that i need
to be a bit more mobile on or i am shooting photos or out and around on a location i will bring
the eos r6 this is my b camera i'm filming on my a camera which is the canon c70 but that is a bit
big to bring along to actually most shoots i only use this camera for studio shoots or
location shoots but this is an absolute beast of a camera i absolutely love it she's beautiful
10-bit uh 4k video in terms of a lens my everyday lens is the 24 to 105 f 1.4 and this just makes
a really really brilliant combination i just completed a shoot we shot in germany and then
in monaco in france and i did that entire job just using the eos r6 so like absolutely brilliant
setup and one you can shoot professional work on and not feel restricted by size and obviously all
of this goes right inside that manfrotto camera bag carrying on with the cameras i also have a
fuji this is an x 100 t so a couple of years old um but this is my sort of travel camera if
i'm going on a trip i actually purposefully bought this because i went to thailand and i just didn't
shoot with my r6 so i decided i would like a slightly more physical tangible like mechanically
feeling camera um that i didn't have to worry too much about like lens changing and anything
like this i don't use this for any professional work but it is just a really really nice like
everyday carry type camera in terms of an on-the-camera microphone obviously if i'm shooting
on the canon eos r6 sometimes i need on-camera audio and right now i'm using the joby wavo pro
this is like a really really cool on-camera mic a bit different to some of the other microphones on
the market most notably there's a key a few key features which make this stand out for me
first of all is the fact that this actually has active noise reduction so a bit like maybe like
an airpods pro or something like that they obviously stop you hearing outside noises
and this little unit down here on the huevo pro is doing the same thing on your microphone trying
to eliminate the sort of bumps peaks in your audio that might be happening like a really really good
on-camera mic and something which i've been super enjoying because it genuinely is quite different
to what else is available on the market another nice little feature is it has an active led status
the nice thing about this again is on some other microphones it might not you might not always know
that they're actually functioning as intended if you're out filming yourself like this but
you can immediately check what's happening on the huevo pro live like a super super nice feature in
terms of a tripod i don't bring this around every single day but the manfrotto b3 advanced tripod
this is a twist based tripod and you can see how small this is like this is a real advantage
to an everyday carry because genuinely this is small enough for to just strap on the side of a
camera bag nice and easy like that and carry that around pretty much every day if i wanted to like
this is an absolute dream for shooting in places like london because this is so tiny i don't need
to worry about it i took this on my trip recently to germany and to monaco and this fit not even in
my camera bag this fit just in my carry-on like a super super efficient you can see just by doing
this you get to a more uh sort of standard um tripod size like what you would expect
and then you can immediately just pack this down again and it takes all of two seconds it's got a
really really good ball head mount as well which again for video or photo like super useful
if you're working with bigger more expensive cameras like a nice ball head that you can trust
is really really important you just would never expect such a high quality tripod to be in such
a small form factor external storage is obviously essential for me and i carry this round definitely
on a daily basis anywhere i'm taking my laptop normally i have some external storage with me the
way i work is i work off external ssds i have here the sandisk extreme i think this is a one terabyte
drive and then i've got a samsung t5 and this has been subsequently replaced with the samsung t7
but they're both very very good drives and very very fast and then any more longer term storage
i move on to these western digital elements drives and very very affordable these are four to eight
terabyte drives and like i said for more permanent like project based storage i can just move over
that ssd working files and then on to these slightly more permanent hard drives another
microphone i've been using a lot is the huevo air by joby like i was super excited when uh these
guys reached out to sponsor a video on the channel joey are an awesome manufacturer of camera gear so
i was super excited to try their new microphone lines and they've genuinely really impressed me
the huevo air has allowed me to be able to shoot videos like this one and not rely on my sort of
dedicated like a a voiceover microphone or a boom mic um it's enabled me to be able to do things
like this like i've just got a little receiver tapped on clipped onto me right now and i have
the wireless receiver on my c70 in front of me it's enabling me basically to shoot videos super
quickly and easily to step away from the camera and just go and record and not worry too much
about the audio another massive advantage with this mic is it has smartphone compatibility so
you can record directly into your smartphone using one of these little mics so again like an absolute
game-changing feature for creators who maybe only use their phone but really want to step up the
audio quality in their videos i was really excited to share these audio products with you guys so
thank you so much to joby for sponsoring this video and supporting the channel something i've
recently switched to is the ridge wallet i was using a more traditional wallet but i basically
realized that there was a whole bunch of stuff in that wallet that i just wasn't using or wasn't
needing and so i've just got back from my first international travel using purely the ridge wallet
and it was really really liberating you basically just have these um rfid blocking panels of metal
and your cars just slip simply in the middle of there like like i said i found this like a super
liberating thing to just have all of your cards with you at all times but with none of the other
surrounding bulk of uh you know a bigger larger wallet something else i keep with me you guys
might think i'm a bit crazy uh is a small rig multi-tool like i don't carry a pen knife like
a lot of other us creators or a lot of other us creators all seem to carry knives around with them
but i don't actually do that i carry a little small rig multi-tool has a ton of allen key
attachments like when you work with camera gear on a regular basis this is a super nice one
to have thoroughly recommended and that guys i think wraps up the video in terms of
an everyday carrier i'd love to see what you guys think and i'll catch you guys next time
