I have been thoroughly enjoying your channel. I have avoided clicking the link because I was concerned it would be too expensive. Tonight I finally mashed that link, and low and behold, this may be the best value of the decade. THANK YOU. Looking forward to absorbing the information!!!
Ted, a teenager in the ‘80’s. I, a teenager in the ‘60’s. As motorcyclists we learned the art of minimalism. Take only what you NEED, no more. As my friend Siddhartha taught me: thinking; waiting; listening to the river-the way to understanding. Lust for unnecessary things of the world clouds what is of value and holy in life. Need I say, I enjoyed your video…
Nothing like waking up to a Ted Talk only to read from my favorite Hermann Hesse work ✌🏻
George. I like your style brother. Siddhartha Is new to me. Originally published in 1922. Now I need to check it out. Thanks for being part of the community here.
Respect for taking care of the elderly!
good video and info... thanks Ted...
Ted, in terms of value this video together with " The worlds greatest drone" is the best you've provided to us so far. Man, it's still better to just use what you have and have fun and create something nice, instead of waiting for something better and nicer and newer and sitting at home doing nothing. Even if you don't have the "right" backpack or camera bag or no bag at all, take a simple plastic bag for that one day, but go out and use what you have. This is the content we need instead of another review of bloody stupid drone water landing sticks.
Stoked to see an awesome sponsor! Congrats! Well deserved!
i really appreciate that. I get about 50 sponsorship offers per month. But they just aren’t a good fit.
Great video..thanks for sharing😊
hey great to see you. its been a while. I just checked out your channel. Loved the M2 morning flight with the cool low clouds. I need to visit!
Thanks for keeping it real, Ted!
Just love all of your content creations
Darryl I really appreciate that. We aren’t curing cancer here…..so gotta have some fun.
@@TedNemeth indeed
Thanks Ted! Very interesting that you shared your gear stuff! Unique and refreshing as always! Keep the good work👌
Franke i appreciate it ma friend. Had fun with this. Where are you on the gear spectrum?
Mini pro 3. Filter kit, 1 long lasting batterie and 3 standard batteries. Looking for a "non flying" camera/video as a next step...will certainly look deeper at the Lumix you presented..I'm doing a lot of research on camera/video gear lately...frankly, a real rabbit hole...still can't choose... @@TedNemeth
Solid list, and great book recommend.
Love that v.much - thanks bud keep it up 💪
right on brother. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. It’s quite a share from you - appreciated Great video, so true, I regularly sift through my kit. I use my GoPro hard case for my drone - works a treat! Got the same watch too!
Sweet vid and thoughts ! 👏👏👏. I make sure my drone license is in my kit
Glad to see you made it through winter. Happy Spring,Ted !
Happy Spring. Dang it feels good when that warm sun illuminates the skin and the colors all around come back to life.
Another great job, My Flying Friend! I used to worry about all the gear. Turns out I didn't need most of it - just like you said!
Great video! You are so right. I was buying everything I saw on the tube. I have a back room full of crap I Never use. Have my one ND 16 and that’s it.
That Aputure M9 sings lovely when light is turned on, LOL!! Great awesome video on drone gear, love those leather patches!
Dude that was a lot of stuff packed in small space. That is so cool. 👍🏿
Best YT Thumbnail Ever!
Great subject Ted. For gear and for life. We like to go backpacking...when you are weighing your toothbrush before deciding if it goes, you know you are doing some critical thinking about what's really necessary! I'm a believer that our physical possessions all carry some emotional weight (or importance), even mundane stuff. Less stuff, less emotional weight, more ability to be present and fully experience life. I'm gonna check out that book!
Chad you said it much better than I.
Love seeing how organized you are with your gear, I am definitely one of those who tends to throw things around in the bag, especially when doing quick changes to chase the low light. One case I'll make for the widescreen lens is when shooting for social in the city (while keeping it under 400 ft) it really helps to expand what you'll get into a 1080x1920 (portrait) format, for me it's made a pretty big difference. Of course I do try to plan it so I'm not rushing and flying back to add it, etc.
Eric I just watched your client reel. You ABSOLUTELY killed it brother. DAMN that must feel amazing to have overdelivered when it came time for you to step up and really perform. Those shots are sick ma man.
Thank you for sharing.
Hey Ted! Another excellent video sir, bloody love it, the humour really got to me! Very much enjoyed the semi mini truck 3 charging past at lightening speed 😂 A lot of wisdom there too, you have shown a mastery of minimalism, something I strive for although not quite as successful, but the necessity of living in a van helps and I'm very much not missing a house full of crap. Your motorcycle is a beaut! And I love the leather work, so cool! Really nice to see your channel grow, very well deserved, and congrats on the sponsor! 🙌
Jamie thank you. Did you film that Nazaré film?!
@@TedNemeth I did, not sure if you saw my reply on my channel, but great to hear you surf too! I'm very much a beginner still after kitesurfing the last ten years or so. Where do you surf? I've just been on a road/surf trip to South of Spain, soo good! Thinking possibly Morocco next.
great stuff Ted 🙏 my flying camera gypsy friend! juast one other accessory i do love --its the hands free ---neck lanyard for the rc controller 👌
❤ This vid
Switchblade comb. OMG!
We love you Ted.
😊
4:14 caught that 🪆😂
Always struggle with the minimalist thing - total respect and love that you carry "bobbles" even as a minimalist.
I love my little apocalypse prep box, it forces me to compartmentalize the necessities cause i can't stretch it out like I would with a bag. just wish it was Aluminum with a single handcuff bolted on 😊
yes! i dig your style brother.
I switched to a iPad Pro M1 refurbished from Apple directly and I have zero issues it absolutely replaces a laptop IMHO, I like your kit. If you’re ever in southern Philippines Davao City area you’re always welcome. FYI Swatch’s rule !
Sam that’s exactly what i was thinking…a refurb M1, because I want to switch to Final Cut Pro.
And yes i am definitely going to visit Philippines & India.
Let’s stay in touch.
Great work and tips, Ted. Congrats on having the video sponsored as well.
Right on Ted! I bought accessories for the drone that I've never used. Nice craftsmanship on your leather collection.
Man Ted your a cool guy 😎
Inflatable girlfriend 🤣🤣🤣 Your are always informative and entertaining.
I almost spit my coffee out when he said that lol
what the heck i thought i was subbed to you already! Love to you Ted and keep doing your thing my friend!
thanks Kevin. And loved ur spec ad.
@@TedNemeth Thank you dude!! The better version is on my website. I fixed the audio a bit and adjusted color on one or two clips. Color correction is my nemesis but I’m determined to learn it.
First off, let me say I enjoy all your videos I’ve watched so far 👍 However, when it comes to product recommendations, in particular the “First Power” extended drone battery, I’d just like to point out a few negatives:
1. Their drone batteries do not support DJI firmware updated (which are required by the FAA), so that means you need to have a DJI battery in the drone to do the updates. [That info was also listed on Amazon by the company]
2. Their batteries, according to the company’s own info, discharge quickly flying in temperatures below 10C (that 51F) which is ridiculous. DJI’s extended battery specs show operating temps as low as -10C (14F) and charging temps as low as 5C (41F). They (FirstPower) even address this i temperature issue in their FAQs.
3. The most important issue, if you crash your drone with a non OEM battery, DJI most likely will not cover any warranty you have, and if your crash causes the FAA to be involved, you might find yourself with some hefty fines just for not having the drone up to specs.
One last thing, which isn’t necessarily a make or break deal but, on FirstPower’s Amazon page, they list the weight of the battery at 119 grams (twice) but also at 137 grams (twice), so I’m thinking they have quality control issues at least in their marketing department, and possibly in other areas (engineering, production, ???).
Love my Omega Seamaster too. It's almost 30 years old.
Love coming to this channel. Be well my flying filmmaker Guru. 🤙🙏
Another great video! What is your opinion for the FPV drones?
I love the smell of a late upload in the evening!!!!
Dude great to see you pop up! The gang really misses your humor/contributions.
YES it's VLOS!!! I have been wondering this A Lot especially this past week - Hope all is well - new seasons, new sights ✌🏻
I really enjoyed the singing LED light. Nice touch. Made me laugh.
hey Professor. thank you ma friend.
That put a smile on my face, too.
Hey Ted, I'm really enjoying your Drone Cinematography MasterClass, very well put together and easily understandable - learning heaps and looking forward to putting it into practice.
I was wondering if in one of your up coming videos, you could explain, and give examples of what situations you might use AE lock to stop exposure changes in your footage and why?
I truly appreciate the time, effort, and personality you put into all your videos. Thank you.
"Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify, simplify! I say, let your affairs be as two or three, and not a hundred or a thousand; instead of a million count half a dozen, and keep your accounts on your thumb-nail." Henry David Thoreau
You nailed it! Henry D would be proud! Thanks for reminder Ted!
Thanks, just took the Wide Angle lens off my To Buy list.
yes! great to hear. Like the Buddha once said: “acquire more drone skills, not more drone gear.”
man 1 drone mini2 3 batteries 1 controller done and dusted simplicity ruled ted hope ya well mate cheers
Do they make battery's for the fimi x8 se 2020
Cool video man! Love your just get out and get it done well don't worry about gear and bits to much attitude. Are you considering the pocket 3? How come two drones? Backup? Or to film the other one or something?
Sam thank you! I had the Mini 2 and was totally pleased with it. I bought the Mini 3 Pro just so I could review it for the channel.
I use the Mini 2 for riskier shots now.
I would LOVE to get the Pocket 3. I had the Pocket 1 & 2. I sold my Pocket2 so I could afford my LUMIX S5ii.
I just don’t have the money yet for a Pocket3. But hopefully soon.
You based in Norway yes?
@@TedNemeth no we just visited Norway, based in the UK and will be visiting the US (East coast) in May.
Hey Ted good to see you, nice sharing like always 🤝😎
hey buddy. great to see you flying & posting so consistently. I need to learn from you. Great shots up at the Cloisters.
@@TedNemeth thank you my friend 😎🤝
Is it ironic that the sponsor for your minimalist gear video is a piece of gear?😂 Excellent video, as always! Thanks for the peek inside your world!
Always fascinated to see what gear people have...I have one mini 4, six batteries and an nd filter pack nd 8 to nd 128. I use nd 32 and 64 quite a bit for daytime filming. Also have a pocket 2 for land filming.
I still need a couple of things, a good mic is next on the list as I'm using more audio on my films now.
Cheers for the insight Ted.
Davey
Hey buddy. Thanks for sharing. I found this free audio cleanup tool. I use it frequently. It works great to remove a slight echo when recording audio indoors or if you peak slightly. Occassionally it does some strange things to audio….but overall it works great.

@@TedNemeth Nice one, cheers for the heads up 😊
Are you using the Osee monitor with your DJI drone?
Interesting Whisky Prof... With the title I was expecting to see a flask.
Out of interest, when do you prefer the Mini 2 over the M3P and vice versa?
i prefer the Mini 2 because if i crash it I care much less. I prefer the Mini 3 Pro for the RC controller. I also REALLY like the 4k60fps. I shoot in 60fps while flying low over water very frequently and absolutely love that look. I also tend to crop in frequently in editing so having that 4k resolution helps over 1080p.
What part of NY I grew up in granville new york
Inflatable girlfriend 😂 now I’ll never unhear that with your vids
2:50 then it means i shouldn't get a drone😢😂
Hi do you have size S or L with the clear plastic gear case ? Kind regards from Holland
hey buddy. I own both. The large ones I use for camera gear. The small size I also use for personal items when i travel.
Hello from New York!
@@TedNemeth thanks i learned so much from you 🙏
Cool video. Agree with you on keeping it simple. So easy to get sucked into buying things you really don't need, and distracts you from developing your skills ... I should know! 😂 Great choice of watch by the way 👍
Oh and did you say the battery could be used for powering inflatable girlfriends? 🤔😂
A man of many talents! I love your leather patch work! Unreal! “Will breed for whiskey” 😅😂😂
ha. hey Lee. You caught that. Thanks for watching.
@@TedNemeth always watching your videos Ted. Awesome and inspiring and always looking forward to the next one. Safe travels my friend 👍🏴☠️🇦🇺
"...my inflatable girlfriend..." @ 4:13 Hilarious, but highly unlikely.
there are SO MANY rabbit holes of crap for these drones hahahahaha!!!!!
Inflatable girlfriend. LOL
Good job!! Bread makes me poop!
Splendid.
hahaha inflatable girlfriend :)
We’re is the link to the inflatable girlfriend sounds like one extra required in the bad!
haha. you caught that. I was curious if people actually listened to the sponsor reads. So thought I’d throw in an Easter egg for you guys. Thanks for being part of our goofy community here my friend.
Hey Ted, as well as practicing the art of the flying camera I am also a very keen fisherman and I adopt the minimalist approach in this as well, we all get bogged down with kit we clearly do not need from time to time and it's really great to see someone on UA-cam try to get this over to their audience rather than saying hey, buy this, buy that, you NEED! this...blah blah blah! It's a refreshing change to see.
Absolutely love your channel, keep up the good work my friend, oh and the part about the blow-up girlfriend...that made me chuckle, even had to backtrack on the video just to make sure I heard correctly 😂 keep it real Ted 👊
Right on! Thank you. I needed to hear that little pep talk. This is my worst performing video. It gets a little disheartening when you spend so much time creating something and it doesn’t perform. Then I remember those metrics don’t matter in the long run. It does suck because my income dips substantially when videos do not perform. But that’s part of being a creative & putting “performance” in the hands of an algorithm. Anycrap. I’m here to help. That is all that matters. HA! You caught that part about the inflatable wife. I wanted to see if people actually listened to the ad read. So i put that in. Hehe. Thank you my friend! @@shartafromsparta

Damn right! Thanks Paul. (Mr.107)
