    I have to say, your cinematography, and your video editing, has stepped up a notch. Excellent video - I held my breath with the Cahill footage; and yet the whole video (aerial, underwater, slow motion nature shots) was breathtaking. Plus a little bit of… cruising along with the music, the music stops and walking out to the front of the car for a quick repair - great advice and lessons along the way👍🏻.

    It is recognised the Tassie Tiger was endemic to the mainland earlier. It is not surprising, because there was a land bridge (see Gondwana info) with Asia after Noah's flood in 4000 BC -6000 years ago (and , yes Noah's Ark has been found and gets explored more each summer thaw in Eastern Turkey). So it is not surprising the dingo's arrived as well as human migration after the Tower of Babel Incident c3500 BC (5500 years ago near Babylon). When you look at the artistry of places like this you see the Artistry of the Designer, so much so that no human artist or interior designer could come close to replicate. Thanks for sharing how easy it is to visit and the hints.

Looks amazing and a good option to the Canon M50 - our thoughts now would be to look at a canon with better lens options like a Canon 6D - Sony also have some amazing cameras in this higher price range too…. Once you work out if you want a vlog cam or a more versatile cam (that can use better lens’ for shooting wildlife etc) check our KZread reviews where they pitch cameras against each other 👍😊 good luck!
