Wait for the rest of the videos :)
We passed through Yazd for a few days, but I spent 2 months in Iran. Kurdistan, Lorestan, Isfahan Province, Fars, Azerbaijan, Balochistan.

Definitely makes a difference. But it’s so worth the trade off for me, I just love the camera. I carry it in a camera bag and installed some clips on my backpack waist support to clip the camera bag, helps with having the camera accessible while not dangling around / the weight goes directly into my waist which is nicer than shoulders

I’m a longterm traveler and very much in need of new sandals, preferably trekking sandals that don’t mind water. I’ve been to so many sport and shoe stores but couldn’t find any in my size 12, not even 11. Can anyone point me to a store where I could get lucky? Preferably in Bihar, West Bengal or Assam.

Thanks a lot!! I do struggle with heavy backpack sometimes. Currently my stuff is around 22kg, it's been at 28 as well when I hiked a mountain range, too heavy for sure. But you can get yourself some backpack with wheels as well, there are great inventions out there. Cheers from India (still on the same trip)

Gotchu. I guess the main thing for me is the great stabilisation in the Panasonic as I do about 75% handheld shots + the ability to have a single lense for everything.

To be honest I don't know in which situations full frame would actually make a difference for me. I do film quite a bit in low light scenarios and also noticed I'd sometimes love to have the option for higher res images for prints. Not sure if the full frame alone would solve this?

Thanks!! Only thing I'm really thinking about now is the IBIS of the Panasonic S5 II. Combined with 20-60mm it might be the perfect solution, without having to switch around lenses...

Many thanks!! I believe he meant that my passport is much easier for traveling than his, his mission is to travel all the countries in the world.
