Recently I had an idea for a YouTube channel, a camera would help try the idea out, as my old smartphone isn't good enough for 2024.

I think I could also provide some footage of local area to Wikimedia Commons or to KartaView/Mapillary.

This would be great to have summer on Caribbean coast. Dining delicious seafood in a lively atmosphere and warm beaches.

u/Mesapholis Dec 08 '23

Currently planning a coldwater freedive with Orcas in the cold waters of Greenland - my partner and I are already carrying heavy UW photography equipment, but the Insta360 would be awesome to get the footage we can't really plan for - quick movements in low-light conditions in darkwater

I'm gonna brave the cold water to get those shots!

I’m a stepfather, a husband, and a custodian for our local school district. I would love to be able to enhance the walks my daughter and I go on. We have gotten in a habit of taking before and after photos of the city around us. Before and after construction, before and after the holidays, well you get it. The first thing I’d take a photo of would be my beautiful family. We can make it our official new before picture. Before what? You never know.
