Our Gear:
Canon G7X Mark II: http://amzn.to/2nDh9UH (it’s amazing and basically sees in the dark)
Canon G7X: http://amzn.to/2mMmPrd (the original is almost as good, but less expensive)
Joby Gorillapod: http://amzn.to/2n6m92y (fantastic versatile bendy tripod – this is the slightly smaller “action” version that’s easier to travel with and comes with a mount for a camera and a gopro)
Macbook Air: http://amzn.to/2n6rPtc (we edit everything on Final Cut Pro on a Macbook Air, which is light and easy to travel with)
External Hard Drive: http://amzn.to/2nD6o4F (the videos are a little too big for the macbook air to handle, so I edit everything off an external hard drive)
