I'm so happy for you. I can only imagine how wholesome and fulfilling it must be to get the opportunity to capture such a brilliant footage and breathtaking pictures up close. You truly have honed the art. Despite the fact that Fuji AutoFocus is generally underwhelming, you never let it bog you down. Thank you for the visual treat!

This video should have way more views! What a great story. I could watch those brown bears for hours. You have a new subscriber.

Thank you for capturing the beauty and tranquility of the Slovenian wilderness and the magnificent brown bears! While the images and videos are stunning it’s your awe and love for nature that draws me into this inspiring adventure! I am curious about your experience with this equipment in low light. I had always assumed that the larger medium format sensor would perform better in low light than full frame cameras.

Great photography and passion! Thanks for sharing

Wow, I didn't think that your footage and images could be any better, but this video is just so good. I've just managed to see my first black bear at the side of the road whilst on holiday in Canada 🇨🇦 it was a real moment for me . I can see why you keep going back to see them. Thank you.

Beautiful footage! Those cubs are just too adorable. By the way, I think it's safe to crank that ISO up to 3200 or beyond. The GFX handles it well, I believe! But I'll hear it in the review, I reckon. 😊

Aw thank you ☺️

As always, peaceful footage, reflective music and artistic simplicity! It sounds like your GFX experience has been a little stressful due to the dark aperture and low shutter speeds. Looking forward to your full assessment! :)

The Fuji GF 500mm 5.6 seems to be a very nice Lens, compact and light weight. Now Fuji just need to update all their GF Lenses, so they can be more compact and light weight. Some of the new Hasselblad Lenses are very compact and light weight, though they have a shutter built into the Lens ! If Fuji updates all their Lenses to much more compact and light weight, then I guess that the Fuji GF system can take more of the market from the high megapixels full frame Cameras !

Key part to using this lens - mechanical shutter… any movement - even on fast shutter speeds - on electronic shutter, results in massive amounts of rolling shutter! This is for photos, and tested on the GFX100S… not the MK II, but still, the rolling shutter was horrible, and I don’t expect the new mkii to be that much better here

@@wildandfreevictoria yes, and I’m impressed how video holds up with your pans, and lack of rolling shutter… I have not tried video at all on GFX, I also have the X-H2S, much better suited for that, but I only shoot stills anyway

Excellent video and pictures. It made me fell like I wanted to hug the bears. Ha! Ha! Too bad about the resolution on the LCD screen. It should be better. Although, viewing the shots from a larger computer screen is always better. Good Job!

Ok, so who are you and why is this the first video of yours that I am seeing? This was a GREAT video!! Beautiful cinematography and story telling. It looks like I will be spending some time watching many more of your past videos in the coming weeks. I love these kinds of nature / photography productions. I have an X-T3 and a 70-300 btw.

Hehe well Hello there! I am Victoria 😄 thank you for your lovely comment! I have a lot of similar stuff in my playlist for the Brown Bears in Slovenia and the Wonderfully Wild UK wildlife - i think you will like them, I enjoy an emotive story telling. And I love the X-T3, it was my first camera for a long time - which I still own and holds a special place in my heart. Keep enjoying your photography and thank you again ☺️🙏🏻

Great content. Would be very interesting to compare gfx100 + 500mm against the xh2s with 200-600mm at 600mm. The xh2s has the range advantage of range and aps-c. But the gfx has the advantage of 100mp. Which one delivers the best image when framing of image is adjusted one to one?

Beautiful Video. What software you use for video editing. Will be helpful if you can please mention. Thanks

Go to Romania and you will not wait long time searching and seeing them. Last days a young woman lost her life, encountering a bear on Jepi Mici road on Bucegi mountain. This shows us how dangerous they can be and react in certain situations.

Yes I have heard this which much be great to see but I don’t want to see bears by the road. I also don’t want to get eaten nor do I want to contribute to the problem of the bears getting too close to people. These are big predators and you have to take responsibility to not cause a problems for the bears or people.

You're only viewing a jpg on your cameras LCD screen.

Yes, it just makes it hard to see how sharp it is ok not. Because even then for jpeg you still hard to see what is sharp or not to the level of high quality image you get from the 100s II. But all was good in the end and I trusted the process 😄

Women's content in any platform: don't worry about it, just be underdressed at least for a thumbnail, and you're good to go.
