4×4 with the New Defender – our new way to travel
We want to experience off-road travel and be mobile where the big RV can’t go. Even when choosing the equipment, we trade comfort for compromise and focus on the essentials. We look forward to future adventures with our Land Rover Defender 110 called “Ralfi”.

The Youtube H.264 / mp4 lie. Forget the export madness!
If you search the internet for the best export options for uploading videos to YouTube, you will always come across videos and blog posts that present exporting as H264 codec in MP4 format as a panacea. The reality is different. YouTube re-encodes every upload, no matter what format you upload it in. The only advantage of this format is the fast upload, because the file size is smaller.

I will show you how to use your camera with Peak Design Capture Clip directly into the DJI Ronin RS 2 and RSC 2, without any screws. An alternative quick release plate makes it possible.
