CAMERA GEAR
To bring you the experienced information in the videos a steady investment of camera gear and software has been purchased. Here is some of the gear that I use to make it happen.

GoPro Hero 12
Version 12 has game changer improvements over version 11 .Besides many other things, Hyper Smooth is even better.

GoPro Hero 10
I’ve owned the GoPro Hero 8 and 9. The version 10 upgrade was well worth it for me. The touch screen now responds like it should with greater sensitivity. The newer version of Hyper Smooth and the new front screen display took this camera to the next level.
Dual Battery Charger + 2 Enduro batteries (Hero 9 and newer)
The Enduro batteries last much longer than the original blue label models.
Enduro battery for Hero 9 and newer
The Enduro batteries last much longer than the original blue label models. This is a single pack.
Suction cup
You can attach this to your car or pretty much any flat, even surface.
Magnetic swivel clip
Using this, the camera can be mounted in precarious places given they are metallic in nature.
Media Mod (Hero 9 and newer)
The media mod allows you to attach an external light mod, external mic, or an external monitor for vlogging.
GoPro Jaws: Flex Clamp
This thing won’t let go of anything so be careful what you clamp it to.
3-way 2.0 mount
This is my go-to mount most of the time due to its versatility. It can simply be used as a camera grip, but when needed, it can swing out and become a selfie stick or odd angle catcher. The tripod stand hides neatly inside the handle.
Canon EOS REBEL SL3 Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm Lens kit
I actually own the SL2 version because I bought it a year or two before the SL3 was available. The SL2 was rated first in class and had great raves. I have enjoyed using it. It’s been all I need for the videos I’ve used it for. The SL2 is no longer available on Amazon as a new camera so I am providing the link for the SL3.
Canon EOS 50mm
This lens is great for doing closeup shots with blurred backgrounds.
