How Camera Choice with the DJI Mavic 3 Pro Affects Perspective and Emotion
The camera you choose for capturing an image with the DJI Mavic 3 Pro drone can profoundly alter its emotional impact and the narrative it conveys. This becomes especially evident when comparing images taken with different cameras of the same scene.
Read MoreWhen I first purchased the new Nikkor 28-400mm lens, my goal was simple: find an all-around travel option that could live ready in my vehicle for those unexpected moments of beauty. My plan was to pair it with a Z8, creating a lightweight yet versatile setup that could handle a range of situations. Initially, I had my reservations - a lens with such a wide zoom range, topping out at f/8 at 400mm, seemed like a compromise.

Thanks,
This was an image I captured in Southland on my drive home from one of my photography workshops in the Catlins. Such a beautiful part of New Zealand.
With international travel and photo expeditions on hold - it has allowed me the opportunity to create breathtaking content in my own “big backyard”. Recently I worked with the amazing team from Heli Glenorchy and Heliworks Queenstown to create a new video which was showcased last week to the travel industry. They have received fantastic feedback and interest in their products from this project.

Rab New Zealand, Nikon New Zealand, Manfrotto and Lowepro Bags.
Read MoreI created images of my own on Facebook and on my Instagram page @chris_mclennan1 everyday during New Zealand’s lock down. What started as a fun project for myself turned into a truly incredible display of photographic creativity from around the world. Thanks to Nikon NZ, Rab, Lowepro Bags and Manfrotto for getting behind this fun project and offering fantastic prizes to be given away to photographers who stayed home and got creative.
Read MoreI have been part of the Lowepro Bags Loweprofessional ambassador program for many years now. Recently I worked closely with Lowepro on the redesign of the Pro Trekker series which was launched a little over 6 months ago. During that process I hauled numerous samples out into the field to put them to a true test.
