How dangerous can it be?

I failed to mention in my health and safety spiel about the need to wear safety glasses - because I already wear glasses; so protect your eyes also!

Today's video is a tutorial on a popular photography fad from a few years back, which is wire wool spinning. I talk you through the equipment, camera settings and other considerations to capturing awesome images.

The gear I use to make my content (although this is always changing!)

Canon EOS R8 + 24mm F1.8 - This is my main YouTube on location camera, since it is small yet powerful.
Sony A7iii - this is my primary stills camera that works with native Sony lenses and all my Canon EF lenses on the Sigma MC-11 adaptor
Canon EOS R8 + 16mm F2.8 + Zhuyin Crane M3 - I use this on location where I have a lot of travelling to do
Canon EOS R + RF35mm & Sigma 50mm - This is my office camera setup, with a Rode Video Pro+ mic and studio lighting.
DJI Pocket 3 - an incredibly small but powerful stabilised camera that fits in your pocket. I use this camera when I cover a lot of ground on location.
Canon 5D3 - I use this camera when I use my EF glass and there is no benefit in adapting
DJI Mavic Pro 2 - My first drone, and I can’t see me replacing it. It’s amazing for both stills and video 
Go Pro Hero 8 - for adverse weather conditions that my other cameras might not survive!
Insta360  - X3 & One inch edition - for 360 degree video and BTS content
