Highlights from a 4-day/3-night visit to Lake Adelaide, New Zealand, in January 2022. One of the most physically and mentally demanding hikes I've ever done; this video doesn't really do justice to how arduous and unforgiving this landscape is. For that reason very few people venture into this remote location, and so it's an absolute privilege to showcase the outstanding beauty of a place many will never visit for themselves. I hope you enjoy.
The majority of this video was captured on a Nikon Z7II and with Nikkor Z lenses. Several clips were captured with an iPhone 12 (they're reasonably easy to spot, as in spite of being shot at 4K they're much softer and noisier than the Nikon).
