    The In Pinn, what a fantastic place. The belay ledge in the middle is one exposed place. I dropped my small camera there once, it bounced and stopped and I was able to retrieve it. Very lucky.
    Another great video of my favourite hills, thank you. Even better with Gerry and Mark banter!

    Another brilliant video Murray the 360mcamera was made for this!
    I also have unfinished business with the In Pinn, having stood below it three times but never climbed it! The first time was after we'd done Banachdich, and just included Dearg on the way down to make a good day of it, without any intention of climbing the pinnacle, or any gear to do it. The second time it was just too windy so we retired gracefully back to the tent. The third time I was on my own and had come along the ridge from Mhadaidh, and was just completely knackered by the time I got there.
    I'm now knackered by age, but never say never eh :)

    • @ScotlandsMountains
      @ScotlandsMountains  Рік тому +1

      Thanks Paul, dont think there was an issue , the camera was probably at a wide aperture to get a little of the "bokeh" effect as you saw . The action cameras have set apertures (usually ) and so cant offer that so I don't think it would've been the gopro - probably the sony zv1 or a7 :)

      Go with an experienced climber or guide on a good day (tricky I know!), but deffo try it. Yes it’s exposed,but is worth it.
