How a Cabin Changed My Life

I’ve been spending a lot of time at my off-the-grid cabin in the Berkshire Mountains lately. When Nikon reached out and asked me to test their new Z6 full frame 4k mirrorless camera, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I would put the camera through its paces and make multiple films on subjects I’m very passionate about. The goal was to test all of the camera’s greatest features and show the quality of content that can be produced with this cinematic beast. While making this film, the stabilization capabilities proved to be instrumental on every shot. We were able to run and gun and capture quick little moments completely hand-held, without having to worry about dizzying footage. Once you use a camera like this with the capability of shooting at 120 fps for slow motion, you will never be able to go back. The mix of slow motion and raw footage makes for such a dynamic story telling experience. The new Nikkor Z series lens provided beautiful bokeh and stayed sharp at every aperture we shot at. Overall, this camera is an incredibly dynamic tool that every modern film maker should seriously consider.

I teared up watching this. I've been feeling down and lost lately. I don't know what I'm doing anymore, but I know this is what my soul longs for. I don't want anything fancy in life. I just want a simple life. I want to see the stars at night. I want some peace. I want to find my happiness.

Edit: Thank you all for the love and support. It's comforting to know I'm not alone. May we all find our peace.

So glad to see a younger guy understanding this value.

This was very beautiful. I’m 22, just graduated college, and have been incredibly stressed trying to figure out what I want in life. I’ve decided I want to build a tiny home and live a simple life. Watching this video brought tears to my eyes, which made me realize this is the first time in my life that I actually know exactly what I want. I haven’t even built the house yet, but already my heart feels so full just finally knowing where i’m going.

A guy with a dog spending some quality time in the forest with a tiny cosy cabin next to a calm and beautiful stream... How much more beautiful can it be?
I would love to call this Beautiful, just because it is BEAUTIFUL.

I agree. There’s nothing better in life than a cabin on the river with a loyal loving dog 🐕

This almost made me cry, it was so beautiful.
You have found heaven on earth.

I live a pretty simple life here in the valley up in the ridges of the Sequatchie Valley, living in a motor home, built my little wood shop next to it where I find myself doing what I love most. But every 3-4 weeks my old friend calls me and we go up into the mountain where he has a nice cabin, build a fire, fish the pond and ride around in the woods on some old logging roads that have grown over and washed out decades ago. The peace and solitude restore's the soul and gives life meaning. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven.

I appreciate that people do enjoy the little things in life

my story is almost identical....i kept my eye on a small river cabin off a dirt road for years.then in 1995 a 4-sale sign appeared in the front window...i tried tirelessly to get a call back from the seller...it finally came and i was the new owner

I moved from a large city to the Pennsylvania woods after I had a mental breakdown from having an MS relapse. When i discovered the woods omg i was at peace. It was calming, relaxing and it seemed that my mental health turned for the better. I was so enamored that i connected more with nature thru plants n maybe in the future even dabble in some homesteading n I'm only 35!🤗

Omg! Your best one yet! This video has washed over my broken soul. I feel better already. No better cure than nature.
