I always like it when you give negative reviews and tell people not to buy a product because you are an awesome guy and I'm a 100% sure you are saving others from unnecessary headaches.

Such a clever use of the Stream Deck!

I had a good laugh with the Giovinazzi thing😂

Love your work Kym, and thanks for always being generous with how you work. Really interesting and cool to watch! 🙂

The variety of textures in the kislux pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

You are a LEGEND! Recently got into Photography, and a few months ago stumbled across a facebook post, started following you there and before my 3rd ever event the F1 in Melbourne town this vid pops up!! My kit is on the cheaper end and Sony but I'm building towards what you've got and what you are doing; I hope! MotoGP is my jam though! How good is that leatherman, had one since my MTB instructing days and it is still rock solid. Great advice and Tips, Thankyou!

Absolutely fascinating Kym what a great video! Cheers.

mate!!!! 13:31 has blown my mind 🤣🤣🤣 never even thought about taking a powerboard overseas so simple of an idea yet so effective haha

Very good photo information! Your knowledge is so valuable for use on also other subjects 😊 Take good care of your "priceless" gear! Thank you Kim and I wish you many unique photo's (and keeping cool & warm). It's almost a sport of it's own.

Love the peek behind the curtian, fascinating!

Great content Kym. Love your work and Aussiness.

Been waiting for this video for a long while! Just bought a Cannon R10 for amateur/hire photography. Upgraded from a 7 year old Rebel and the difference with mirrorless and technology is truly night and day. I currently have a control ring adapter for my old EOS lens collection before I splurge on some of the higher quality mirrorless-specific lens. I mainly do portraits and nature/wildlife photography though. Thanks so much Kym! You helped inspire me to get back into a hobby I’ve truly loved!

Perfect timing. Love seeing kit like this.

my desire for the R3 only grows after this video.. thanks for the breakdown of the kit!

Thanks for the insight into your kit. Very impressive. I didn’t know anything about photography and all the intricacies but you have certainly given me enough here to be much more interested in it.

Great gear tour. A place for everything and everything in its place.

This was my favorite so far. I have just about watched the whole lot of your videos and this one has been my favorite

Great video! I’ve learned to always bring an extra set of ear plugs, gloves and extra sets of sunglasses

Great episode!

Great video and nice insights to your gear and workflow. I‘ve sold my two 1DX II‘s to get a R3. Can’t wait for the racing season to kick off in April. A bit limited with just one camera, but I hope to get a second one for Spa 24 at the latest. It‘s a sideshow and not my main job, so I deal with it.

Hey Kim, great video as always! As a photographer too, i’m quite curious about how you manage and use the different cameras/lenses? You’ve got your standard/telephoto zooms as well as your primes - what situations do you use each one for and would love it if you could takes us through that change throughout the race weekend! It could possibly be a pov video/broll sequence idea with the insta360 go that you have ;) Cheers!

Love you videos Kym!! I really enjoyed this one, me being a hobbyist photographer and fellow Canon shooter. I am doing all my photography and KZfaq work on the Canon R6MKII and absolutely love it. I really appreciate you walking us through your workflow as I am always curious how other photographers manage their photos, especially how a professional of your caliber does it. 🙂

Love it that you're so brutally honest. 😀

Thanks Kym, I've been waiting to see a video like this 😊

I've been doing the power board trick when travelling overseas for a few years now. Best thing!

It is easy to see why your Videography and Photography is second to none. Your expertise and vast array of equipment is awe inspiring. Cheers to you Kym for giving your followers such top shelf content.

This was a great video, love to see what's in the camera bag!

Great video, I also have EOS R3, I constantly monitor the status of my camera, in particular, I check for errors through the Tornado EOS program

That was a really interesting watch. I bet it’s knackering shooting an F1 race! Thanks for sharing.

its always a blast to see your gear and your "whats in my bag" vids much love from here in jersey! bigs ups!

Learnt so much. That key word things is super dope

YES NEW VIDEO I WAS LITERALLY WATCHING YOUR 2023 ONE NEW EQUIPMENT VIDEO LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Great stuff Kym, I’d bet many have no idea how much hard work is involved in being an F1 photographer, you make it look easy! Respect 😀👍👏

Brilliant Kym, very informative.

Was the main editor during Tokyo 2020(one) on all sailing photography for World Sailing, agency and some other teams. Also discovered the stream deck to be used on keywords, WhatsApp groups, and different websites and places to be able to edit, tag and send as fast as possible! Amazing complements to use in limit situations of time to send best quality on its quickest situation possible! Great video True, R3 plastic eye thingy falls really easy haha

Nice Yacht Master, great video.

Love your videos, Kym. It would be great if you did one on the race engineers. We always hear them but almost never see them.

Great content and great images as well around F1. Been trying to learn more on keyword process and utilizing the Stream Deck; would love a quick video of your workflow process, stream deck, macros and optimizing keyword workflow in Lightroom.

Fantastic info and explained well 👏🏻

Years ago someone gave me a sling type camera bag, it was a game changer for quick lens changes.

I’m a bag backpack sling lover, thanks for talking about that aspect as well!

Very thorough, thank you.

Pretty informative and great video

Kim, it would be really good to see some videos of how to take better pics for fans. Ie we don’t have the same access as you, so a video highlighting where we can get close enough without those massive zooms/ great photo spots that are easy to access

Another excellent video

I used to do Cricket Photography back in my school days!!! Miss that

great video from a great guy and pro. Not many sports pros tell all their secrets. All the best Kym, nice one mate.

I mostley follow you on TikTok. Love the way you bring the news, ins and outs from the formula1 !! Hope you’ll continue for a long time

Interesting video! I am a hobby photographer myself, so it's always interesting to see what kind of gear other people use! The F/1 lens you own gives amazing bokeh! Love it!

Great video

Awesome content as always

thanks for your sharing

great thanks for doing this mate

As a photographer that would like to shoot F1 one day this video was very helpful! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for inspiring me, Kym

Great video. Thanks for making it. I shoot the Canon R5. Great camera.

I recently got an R5 and I'm loving it. Glad you are team canon😊

8:01 Number 33, Kym.... Great video! (Well, now number 1)

You could glue or use gaffer tape on the eye pieces on the cameras. I had a camera that the eye cup keep falling off, never loose it, but used a little piece of gaffer tape on each side, never falled again!!

Mr. Kym! Thank you for all that you do! Your content week in and week is great. As a photographer myself, how or what process did you go through to get photograph F1? I would like to try and start photographing NASCAR here in the states, but I don't know where I should start.

Kim, tip top video. Question/thoughts on doing a video on how you got into F1 photography and how you become a F1 accredited photographer. The process of applying for you licence, the costs incurred and do you get many new photographers on the circuit with you? Many thanks zak

Great job! Tough job! Cool job! A man’s job! Respect Kim!

That black rapid strap would come in handy for airshows i go to, great video and gear

Great video Kym! I use your presents at least once a shoot, if not more!

Impressive gears you have invested in, good to keep a fit body to enjoy the process. I used to keep all RAW when pixel counts of cameras were lower. But currently I take both RAW and Jpg in different card. Only fall back to RAW if I need heavy photoshop. Otherwise I just keep the JPG. Cameras today are capable of producing very good Jpg.

At 9:55 I have a Nikon Z9 and I have the same problem with the eye piece falling off every time I stash my camera in my bag. Anything that drags a little bit against it pulls it right off.

Wow I know nothing about photography, that was mind boggling and so interesting. Definitely makes you appreciate the end product significantly more.

Kymi the f1 driver version for photographers. Use whatever is needed to improve that efficiency time even if its a few secs.

Amazing video!

Any chance you might dig into how you have the Stream Deck set up? I'd love to be able to do that with the sports photos I do.

And a couple of nice watches too!

id love to see a video of you out on track taking photos

What kind of bag or backpack do you use to carry your larger lenses when travelling by plane? Thank you very much, keep up the good work!

6:38 great to hear you are ramping up the video content Kym! Excited about your content! 👍

The R3s really are the gold standard. You always bring the best equipment.

Kym, A motorsports photojournalist friend just forwarded a link to your KZfaq video to me, thinking that I might like to see it. Wow! Deja vu. Your two cameras of choice are what I ultimately switched over to, after shooting with Nikon for 50 years. Your video is a fantastic, right-on guide to everything one needs to know to about how to shoot auto racing! I am absolutely blown away. Lately I've been wrestling with how to effectively carry my two R3 bodies with a long, heavy lens attached to each. I used to use a Cotton Carrier vest, with a 100-500mm lens attached to one of my R3 bodies on the chest receiver, and a 24-240mm short zoom on the other R3, carried by a Velcro-attached holster at my right hip, but when I replaced that lens with Canon's new, long and heavy 24-105mm F/2.8 for my wide to medium distance, low-light-capable shots, that setup no longer worked. Now I am using a combination of my Cotton Carrier vest and a Cotton Carrier belt. That works much better for walking around, climbing stairs, squeezing between fences and concrete barriers, etc. I used to use Black Rapid long ago, but switched to Cotton Carrier because it kept my cameras more secure from people hitting them and banging them into stuff. I edit my photos using Lightroom Classic with the Topaz Photo AI plug-in to easily remove noise, sharpen, etc. all at once. You are way more knowledgeable than I am about what to do with your photos after you shoot them. I could learn a lot from you. Thank you for sharing. How do I enter your contest? Jan

I love this details gear introduction as a photographer. 😍 i have just one question left: what kind of shoes do you use on the track? I think you have to walk a lot there and it can be a key element of your work.

this guy is awesome

Thanks for the great run down! 2 questions: 1) Why Canon and not Nikon (which I have)? 2) In the old days photos you kept, were so, in Photo albums. Where do you keep your "approved" photos? On an external hard drive, or in the Cloud, for the next generation to enjoy? I am struggling with where to "preserve" them for kids, grand kids and so on. Just wondering. Tks!

Really interesting Kym

Kym, as always, a great video! This thought/question popped into my head while watching: With all your global travel how do you deal with or manage the vast amounts of passwords you use? You can't possibly memorize them and writing them down is not secure. Keep up the wonderful content and I look forward to the next one!

Would love to see an FPOV video of the Insta360 or the like on you or one of your cameras as you're shooting on track/on the grid! Day in the life video similar to your travel content. I think I've seen a few things here and there from you with it, but I'd love to see more!

The stream deck is brillant

Great video. Couple of questions (1)do you use quad lock for your suction cap? (2) what do you with equipment when flying? Checked vs carry on luggage?

Love this video, shoot myself, but I use Micro 4/3 with Olympus which is now OM…. Quality I get is phenomenal…..

8:39 Photo Mechanic can also insert keywords using limited key strokes such as MV would insert “Max Verstappen, Red Bull,”..

Great video Kym. A real insight into what it takes to be a great (and well organised) F1 Photographer. Can’t wait to see more info on your PRESETS! Now, where is my wallet to become a channel member? Richard. From Pommie Land.

Would love to see you shoot some photos of the World Rally Championship.

Stream Deck is next on my list as it will help with my keywording in post for my Aviation stock photography. My question is what bag do you use to carry your kit while traveling from one race to the next? I am looking at the Think Tank Airport Intl. 3.0 to replace my 20+ year old Delsey pro backpack. Also do you have a different workflow for your night race images vs day light workflow?

Love your vids. And maybe one day i`ll also can be a photographer on F1 race hah 😂

Great video..what do you use the tilt/shift for?low shots"? An aside….do you ever get to enjoy a race, or do watch replays?😊

Sincerely hope canon gift you the odd lens or two, your work is outstanding & a great advert for their brand. 👏

Thanks for the video Kym, So you’ve never had any trouble with the leatherman in your checked luggage?

I started to ask if you had tried the 1.4X or 2X Canon teleconverter on the Canon 100-300 2.8?? That would make it a 420mm 4.0 or 600mm 5.6.... and lighter than carrying the 600 fixed.

Shoutout to Stream Deck! Every person I know who has one absolutely loves it

Very interesting! Just fascinating for a guy who did race photography once. Never even knew there was such a thing as a F1 lens.

I tried to find the video you mentioned on uploading from camera to Dropbox, but was not able to find it. Any hints on what to search for?

Great vid Kym - thanks. What model Profoto flash is it?

Kim, great video. Are you connecting the android phone to the GlocalMe everywhere? or do you get secure wifi for media at some tracks?.

@kymillman Can you tell me the precise brand and type of earplug that you use? thx much
