Nice winter shot of Reine!

Just happened on your page and I'm really enjoying watching your videos. They're excellent. Subscribed!

Thanks for the Video, it helped a lot. Which tripod do you use? Thx

Impressive vlog Melvin - nearly 6 years since I was there - must get back soon

Wow, love this episode! Such a beautiful place and epic footage mate!

the smaller dovetail is for the "mono ball fix" plates, AND arca-Swiss Monorails (the bar on the LF cameras, tech. name "optical bench"); the wide side is for standard fit or "classic" plates; CAN'T confuse these, the large classic plate is OFFSET i.e. 2/3 of the plate rest on the "loose jaw" of the clamp, the other 1/3 on the fixed jaw on the head (and very precise tolerances), so only their plates work!!- not like the sirui and Gitzo, etc. arca compatible plates! ( there is a silver thumb knob inside the QR plate base, this has LIMITED tension adjustment, can't fit this to EVERY plate manufacturer, choose one and set the knob and stick to this brand).

Excellent taste of Iceland with a great soundtrack. I’ve stood by those falls looking at the Holy Mountain. Amazing viewpoint.

Superb locations and very informative. Sounds like you have to go with the flow with the weather conditions. The random landslide story made me smile.

A true Photographer with cable release instead of all this 2 seconds delay crap and you can of course watch the unfolding image and press at the correct time without camera shake

like it but then realised the knobs have rubber on .. i havnt had a tripod head that rubber lasts ,achilles heel was hoping they were knurled ,

cheers buddy . cant i take a grinder to my manfrotto base 😁😁😁

lose the rubber bits on the knobs id buy one .. never had a rubber gripped knob that hasnt stretched . loosened or come away. get propper KNURLED knobs on il have one

I WILL have one! Thanks for the rundown! Very well done.

Hi Melvin, is it a restlyng version of D4? On website www.arca-shop.de/en/tripod-heads/gearheads/d4-series/d4/775/d4-classic?c=441, D4 doesn't have a numbered scale under the clamp. Thanks. Giorgio.

Beautifully put together Melvin

What on earth are these two old blokes going on about......lol Great Q&A

Thanks for sharing! did you got the chance to use it compare to the arca cube?

Hi Melvin, what is the Garmin device shown at the bottom. I really loved my visit there a couple of years and I remember that road well, albeit with less snow!

The close-up segment at the end can stand on its own. Wonderfully effective.

OMG THANKS!

cost more than a fuji lense, that's actually hilarious

Thank you, very useful.

Around every corner is a photograph

What do you think of the head so far?

Absolutely beautiful work melvin and some great advice :)

What do you think about the D4 versus the P0 hybrid? It’s a ball head that also has gearing for fine tune

I have a d500 and it doesn't want to fit can someone help me

Hi Guys well done, your delivery and presentation came across in a very relaxed and succinct manner, well done once again. I got up at 4.30 this morning and thought what will i watch then I remembered your email, Ive watched it from start to finish. I would say more for your own sanity, I might be inclined to do them regular fortnightly, with a 45minute time slots, like Tony said it was a longtime, I would have watched it until the cows come home.

Great vid lads!

1:05:42 - I can back up what Tony is saying here, as someone who has been on his workshop to Northumberland we were all given a little challenge to create a detailed shot and I struggled with it, I do have a lot of respect for detailed photographers now!

Thanks for answering my question fellas. Chuffed to bits and great answers from both of you. Please do keep safe and well. All the best.

Thank you guys. Even if my printing question sent Tony to sleep 😂😂😂

About time for another video Melvin!! ;)

Great. glad its on CZcams mate

A pleasure to do this mate!

Woohoo first question, looking forward to watching this!

Excellent as usual Melvin. Great photography and video presentation. Good comedian too!! ;)

Excellent explanations!

Bonjour, thanks a lot too.

Thanks for the info. Im assuming thats your photo in the background. Ive seen it with an article posted on Facebook. Nice shot and thanks for the review 👍

Nice to meet you in Leknes the other day. Enjoy your videos. love the laughter! cheers, Colin

Oooh what a beautiful place!!

Cool buddy

I remember seeing shots from this trip on your Instagram. What an incredible place and those conditions! 👌 Brilliant video!

Beautiful images. And you explain well the former use of the site. Thank you very much.

What plate(s) are you using with Arca Swiss D4? Have you had any trouble with an L-bracket plate interfering with tethering or movement of the rear LCD on your EOS-R?

sunwayfoto gh-pro is better in my opinion

got any videos using it yet?

Hi Melvin - I have just come across your video (perfect timing) as I have been researching this particular head. I will be wanting to use this head for producing panoramic images, but I have an information gap that needs addressing. | am having great difficulty establishing if the head rotates above the tripod centre - to explain: I am not so much worried about the fore/aft movement as that can be dealt with by the nodal rail adjusting the NPP point on the lens - but it is imortant (at least according to my research) to have the head centered on the left/right axis in order to give the stiching program the best chance of success. Can this head accommodate this?

HI Mel, is there a spirit level bubble on the head to help you set up for panorama shots?
