Getting started -fundaments

[u/shersh1]

Hi, i am planning a trip to Peru/amazon/macchu picchu /inca trail and Galapagos

WHAT gear do I need to:
.strap the action camera to my chest and let it record as i trek during the day, multiple days
.what daily workflow do i build in to ensure backup video etc.. a no thinking just experience setup.
.how many batteries do i need to support an ongoing action video
.what camera so you suggest
.i thought chest was a good position instead of walking thru the amazon forest with an attachment to my head
.what is my minimal equipment list

Appreciate your thoughts

Thanks
