This one’s a little rambly and definitely not perfect—but that’s the point. I almost didn’t post this because I kept overthinking the gear, the setup, the script… but creativity doesn’t come from the perfect camera or the perfect plan. Sometimes, you just have to hit record.
This video is a field note on what happens when too many choices get in the way of creating—and why sometimes, the best thing you can do is pick one camera, skip the script, and just start.
📸 Simple Camera Gear I Can’t Stop Switching Between:
Fujifilm X-S20 – My “real camera.” Great colors, amazing video quality… but a little bulky when I just want to grab and go.
Insta360 Go 3S – Tiny, magnetic, and perfect for spontaneous shots. The image quality isn’t perfect, but the convenience? 10/10.
DJI Neo – Selfie drone that works with your phone and is super easy to fly with preset modes.
DJI Osmo Pocket 3 – Gimbal smooth, cinematic footage, and small enough to live in your bag. The flip screen is a dream. 🔗 (I got my Osmo Pocket 3 at Costco and did not get the kit with a mic)
DJI mini mic – such a tiny little microphone with excellent sound qualiity
Sony ZV-1 – A creator classic. Compact, fast autofocus, and crisp footage—still one of the easiest plug-and-play vlog cameras out there. 🔗
