I use dry and dry (desiccant packets) inside a steel cabinet that holds my camera gear (lenses, bodies, etc) so every few weeks you just pop the dry and dry in the microwave on defrost to refresh the dry and dry so it can continue to absorb moisture and keep the humidity in the cabinet down. You can also get humidity sensors to monitor the cabinet, even reptile or pet stores have them! :) hope that helps someone!

I will be definitely be trying this! Thank you!!

great advice wunnerful photo

Some really sound advice again Ian. The waterfall was definitely a bit of a bonus and a great image. A nice location at the coast with plenty of potential. Great image's mate.

Another great video Ian with some good tips as usual. As always, great image's.

I was cringing when you were extending the legs on your trypod with your camera attached.

Hi Ian, I always enjoy your video's and your knowledge you bring to the table. Absolutely stunning image's. I wish you all the very best for the future in your venture and i am sure you will succeed with the help from your subscribers. Atb mate. Catch you on the next one.

Perhaps mirrorless cameras were not such a good idea after all? Some models have a form of sensor protection I believe. Maybe the present mirrorless types are only a stepping stone to models that have really good protection? Just like the manufacturers always do, they sell us the early models and then constantly upgrade them getting us to spend more and more! Just a thought. Any ideas anyone?

Just a dslr and you're fine

Another great video Ian. It is so nice to hear and see a pro photographer preach what they practice. I have long noticed your very deliberate approach to composition and timing. What a great lesson. Thank you for investing your time and talent to share with us. Have you recently changed your sound. I've been noticing your great sound quality for some time now. Great stuff. Cheers.

Thanks for the reply Ivan, appreciate it

The way i change lenses I have come up with, i think is the most efficient. Let's say camera body caps and lens caps are all on, I first unscrew my lens back cap without taking it off, leave the lens on the floor facing down and have a quick glimpse on where the markings are. Now, I can quickly take off my body caps with the camera facing down and throw the cap (in windy days I cover the camera body with my body, too, at this time), take off the lens back cap and fit it in the camera body in under 1 second. After I screw and click it on, then I can take off the lens front cap and pick up the body cap from where i tossed it. :P That's the bare minimum amount of time for my mirror and sensor to be exposed. Although I use my equipment frequently and I do not have to store it for prolonged periods, I keep it all inside my camera bag WITH small anti-moisture bags (like the ones inside of new shoes' boxes). Haven't had any problem ever.

Thanks for the great advice and taking time to do this video.

Should probably turn off the camera while doing this

Such good advice I don't think enough UA-cam videos having made about this subject! I always feel weary when changing lenses at the job site. Bugs and their wings get squished accidentally on your fingers and can get into your camera sensor and lens.

A very good set of recommendations Ian, I would add one more : Don't forget to turn around. Oftentimes a good composition may be missed by not seeing the perspective behind you.

The 18-55 is good enough for 99% of the people.

I was carrying my EOS 5Ds by the tripod on a country trail recently. I thought that the dovetail of the ARCA mount was firm and secure, but it let go, and my body and tilt lens hit the deck hard and got scratched on a stones. I won't do that again. Even the presence of my black and white dog could not prevent my stupidity.

Thanks!

Yeah very guilty of not leaving enough time and ending up chasing the light!

Another great video and very wise words. I think that your best attribute other than selecting the scene is your patience in waiting for the light to be just right. That last shot was a cracker. And belated congrats on hitting the 50k for subscribers, many more to come I am sure. If I lived in the UK then I would be joining a workshop of yours for sure!

Mistake number 6. Carrying too much gear around.

Very good video with excellent ideas.

Any lens cleaning tips?
