Choosing the right camera body for me.
Like many, during the release of mirrorless camera’s I sold my entire collection of Canon gear and purchased the Sony A7Rii. Not that I had many complaints against canon, but it made sense to strip the mirror and convert to a lighter, more compact system.
As I began entering into the word of adventure photography, I started to learn this concept of sacrifice. Finding a balance between what is essential and what is weighing down my pack. On one of my early expeditions, it took several attempts to stuff my bulky Canon body along with several off-camera flashes into a dry bag and then my pack. The seams of the dry bag expanded to its full capacity while the bag itself barely folded to clear the bulk of the equipment inside. The remainder of the day was spent crawling through cave passages that were equivalent to the height of my bag, as I hauled it behind attached to my foot. I knew if I wanted to persevere energy for longevity on expeditions that I had to sacrifice weight. It only made sense to switch to a lighter camera system.. the mirrorless.
