    I absolutely love the way you broke it down to three levels. I've used a Pelican and a Nanuk and found myself constantly swap things out, but now I've been approaching productions in a tier system and really enjoyed watching your take on it. Subscribed for more videos like this!

      For sure! The nice thing about TrekPak is once you have enough of it you can almost endlessly reconfigure to suit changing needs. We are about to do a revamp of our case layout again because we got a new drone and are simplifying our E-mount lens lineup

    I have had to check my peli 1535 (smaller by a bit) under a plane on 2 occasions to small airports in Virginia and Durango Colorado. I had it loaded with lithium ion batteries and they made me hold them in my lap. Tried all the tricks and it didn’t work. Even checked on one of them and it did in fact not fit overhead. So be mindful of how big the plane is going to be. It was a pain for sure. I have started to add camera bodies and glass to backpacks just to be safe for travel gigs

    • @Gloryvisuals

      We actually literally had our first experience of an overhead bin being too small last week after posting this haha. We had even flown into this extremely small airport before and not had issues, but the bins were smaller this time.
      We ended up strapping one of them into an empty seat, and shoving the other under the seat in front of us and putting our feet on top of it. The stewardess wasn’t stoked about it but I told her there was NO WAY we could check them.
      I guess the play would be having an even smaller carry-on case if you KNOW you’re going to a super small airport, and keeping batteries and the absolute essentials in there. But you live and you learn I suppose lol

    You spend a huge amount on gear. Moisture and fungus are the old time enemy or all photographic gear. Unless you can spend a vast amount of money for a controlled environment, you must preserve your optical gear in a "dry" environment. It can be as simple to "not let them be on display for your clientele", and to keep them in an air tight case full of Silica Gel. It is not just the Sensor your must protect. The circuity and metals of your gear must be protected from the outside world. If your rental house does not have it, or enforce it on you as a customer, then don't hire it.

    • @Gloryvisuals

      Hey Kevin! Thanks for the input. We have never had issues with fungus or moisture - our equipment is stored in a relatively climate-controlled area in airtight Pelican cases. We also don’t live in a metro with great rental house options, so we tend to buy over rent and pass those rental fees along to our clients.
