Elina Osborne

Elina Osborne is a filmmaker based in Auckland, New Zealand. Osborne has thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail and she vlogged her entire journey. Since then, she’s done quite a few other major hikes around the world. Hiking for months on end requires carrying all your equipment, so Osborne makes her videos with the lightweight Sony Alpha 7S II with the Sony 35mm f/1.8 or the Sony Alpha 7S III paired with the Sony 24mm f/1.4 G Master. Get the inside scoop on one of her recent films HERE.

We love the vlog they posted below of them rock climbing in Yosemite National Park. They shoot their videos on the Sony Alpha 7 IV, the Sony 24-105mm f/4 G and the Sony 16-35mm f/4. The high quality of their vlogs truly make them stand out.

Simon shot it on the Sony Alpha 7 III and the Sony 35mm f/1.8.
