PLEASE! I'm new to YouTube and I have all kinds of ideas on volts and video content for my travel and outdoor lifestyle blog/brand. But most of the time I have no idea where to start or how to edit and it takes up so much time. I would love to see more videos from you guys on how you edit your videos! This is a great series idea!

[AprilSlocombe]

Interesting video where Stephen discusses the equipment and software he and Jess use for filming and editing their videos, especially if I liked the drone footage in their Croatia and U.K. vlogs. I use my iPad mini to film videos since I feel I don't need a vlogging camera right now and it has more memory space than my phone and iPod and I also edit my videos in Adobe Premiere Pro albeit on my MacBook Pro because I converted to it from my PC laptop nearly five years ago.

This video was fantastic, I love the way you think! I'd LOVE to see a video on what software you use to edit your videos and maybe even a beginners guide to editing.

We've watched tons of reviews on cameras and travel equipment and this seems to be one of the most useful ones we watched! You guys make everything seem so relateable! Thanks a bunch for this!

[MrDaddo]

You need to put more of those sort of Vlogs out, as it is so informative and you have the gift of the gab that makes it understandable and perfectly clear

[JakeRichandAnnaChah]

GoPro hero 5's are epic!! I can vouch for them x Damn! I've been thinking of switching to PC... this is tempting bro

[heatherm]

Yes please continue this series! I enjoy hearing about this. Also how you edit would be amazing!

[DutchNomadFamily]

Now we know how you create this magical looking videos. Recognise the fact of 'grabbing' attention when walking with your camera and mic. That would be reason for me to purchase a compact camera on the side. Clear and to the point!

[chriswilliams]

These videos are so handy and educational, thanks so much!

[beautybycouture]

Yes please a part 2 would be amazing. BTW I love all you vlogs I binged watched all on them. You two are an inspirations to me and my hubby. We want to travel the world and had no idea it was possible.

[meagancolumbus]

Great video, thanks! Very interesting to see what you use. Keen to see some comparisons of the same scenery taken with the different cameras and lenses.

[alwaysforevercurious]

Stephen you are good teacher. This is the best vlogging gear video that I have watched. So, a how you edit would probably be equally useful and interesting. I have enjoyed your channel for quite sometime now. Thank you.

[wetdedstuocm]

I guess I will  have upgrade and put my Kodak Box Camera in retirement. Good information.

[qomototoro]

awesome video, please continue the series!

[kierastohry]

I would love to see more videos on all things travel vlogging, especially on how to edit!!

[marie]

Love this video! Thank you for sharing!! I'd love to see how you edit your vlogs! Also tips for shooting with a drone, music for videos, how you made your intro with your name, how you find volunteer opportunities on trips, how you plan your trips beforehand, travel tips, all that great stuff! Love y'all! If you ever make it to Colorado let me know!

[othepenguin]

You two should totally sign up for the amazing race. You would kill it!

[KirstenWitney]

Great video Stephen. What is the weight of your Sony cam? It looks like DSLR size but of course it is probably lighter... I hope! Do you do any electronic back ups to a cloud service etc? I was hoping you would talk about your drone. My hubby has been eyeing up drones and we were under the impression the phantom had better video quality from what we had read but it's good to hear a real life user experience. The Mavic is just so much more compact and I feel like we carry around some much gear when we travel that I I couldn't imagine having to lug a phantom round too. Would love to see an editing video xx
