Make sure you watch this show in 4K!

Thank goodness it's not actually goodbye. I was really worried....

Had me going with the title, Rob. Glad to hear it's only the camera that's retiring. It's always a little sad when you have to say goodbye to a good bit of gear that you've shared adventures with, but I hope you have fun with the new camera!

Freaking me out Rob! I thought you were saying goodbye to producing your videos! I thoroughly enjoy your work. Glad it was just the camera you said goodbye to 😂

I’m from Melbourne, at Gympie there is a sign that says “Gympie, the town that saved Queensland”. I understand that gold was discovered at Gympie just in time before loans were obtained from London. Can you please do a story of the Gympie gold?

I was thinking you were saying goodbye to this channel. Happy that's not the case. ❤

The new camera is very noticably better.. good luck.

You got me!! Thank God it's just a camera you were talking about

Thanks Rob, new camera looks great. I’ve driven over that old Logan River bridge (as a passenger) probably hundreds of times. My grandfather had a holiday house at Southport and we spent virtually all our school holidays there.

And a very Merry Christmas and thanks for all the great videos 👍

I look forward to the Chermside video, my mother remembers being in the camps in the late 40's waiting for their housing commission house to be built. Her mother used to cry alot due to the conditions... they would walk to the Chermside school each day.

Oh you cheeky sh*t Rob! I thought you were leaving us 😂 That's also one of my favourite bridges. Thank you for sharing through the eye of your new camera. 👌🏻 Hugs to Deidre.

so good - hey bro you're the youtube guy

Geez mate... You had me worried when I read SAYING GOODBYE.. I am 76 and you have to take my "ol heart into consideration with these wild descriptions... LOL Congratulations on you choice.... Many vloggers here in the Philippines use the DJI and they seem to put up good clear video.. And if you are not back before Christmas, I wish you and you family a good Christmas.. Or as they say here.....MALIGAYANG PASCO....

Nice ! I love seeing your fans ~ UKposts followers ~ in your videos ❤

I thought you were saying goodbye mate. Keep making them

I have noticed the high quality of your films so this makes sense. Cheers

Phew! Thought you were quitting for a minute there. Good work Rob.

OHMYGOODNESS I thought. this was the end. So happy it is just the camera. Had me worried...

Phew! Scared me for a second there Rob with that title. Looking forward to even crispier content!

Alice? Thanks for your videos!! I was curious about the history of the red bridge. Now I know. . .

Good job avoiding over rated gopro rubbish. Cant wait to get rid of mine for a dji

On ya Dan

Fantastic little camera! Carry on with your amazing videos and enjoy your celebrity status my friend!!!

I love a good( but honest) click-bait title. All power to you. You go to a lot of trouble. And you're local. Thanks.

Little bit crisper than Deidre. Colour balance is slightly better too. My camera name suggestion: Doris.

Lovely new camera Rob, hope you have many years of good filming with it. The Red Bridge at Beenleigh is a stunning colour for photos. I am glad they kept it and look after it. 😍

thanks for what you do mate

The new camera looks amazing! The fan at the end was so sweet too ❤

One of these days I will find the energy to walk not just to that bridge but across it and beyond to the Hyperdome or something. (although not in the middle of this heatwave...)

That bridge at the start of the video was used in the opening scene of a movie Fortress 1992, one of movie worlds first big movies.

That's some really good footage. Money well spent 👍🏻

Good on yer Rob. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. Lived in Brissy most of my life and always loved colonial history. Welcome, Enid, and long ( battery) life to you. Merry Xmas.

Old battler at the end.

Farewell trusty Osmo 1 (Deirdre). You served Rob well. Welcome Osmo 4, may you provide many more thousands of hours of high quality video to both Rob and us fortunate viewers. May I suggest the Osmo 4 be named Kevin? Not sure why, just has a certain je ne sais quoi to it.

I love seeing places I Recognize or have been too in your videos

I remember going to the Gold Coast late 60s early 70. Myself and my three sisters in back of Holden. Stinking hot,mum threatening to bang our heads together if we don’t behave. Then Dad would say I can see the sea. Hooray we all screamed. I swear it took half a day to get there from Brisbane. Love ya work Rob. Oh by the way mate I use to hang out at Runcorn all hours. I’m a bit older but we may of met. Merry Christmas to all.

Can’t wait to which town you do next give us the history..I’ve only tuned in a few weeks ago and have enjoyed your videos

I can remember driving over that bridge long time ago I used to live right around the corner from that bridge as well good little skatepark of the road as well

Dam, shame I missed you i live about 700 mtrs away from where you were filming, as a young high school student and living in beenleigh i would have to ride my push bike over the red bridge to get to shailer park high school, it was quite scary not much room there to get across. Mind you the traffic back then wasn't half as much as it is now. Thanks love your videos.

Congratulations on your new toy Rob. ❤

Obviously it should be R2D2 (Rob2Deirdre2)

Interesting vid, thanks for sharing.

What a sad day for you but also a happy one. Call it Daryl.

Truth is, Your the nice bloke... :D New footage looks amazing.. Looking forward to chermside. I used to work at the car wash.. Good luck with the new toy. 'Beatrice' comes to mind for its name.. It means 'Blessed one'. All the best :D

That's some impressive clarity in that new camera. Now, keep that old one. It has some soul.

Damn it Rob you click-baited me! Haha an ode to a camera 🤳 Good on ya. I am still watching it anyway cause I know the bridge and ridden my horse across it once a long long time ago

You're gonna have to wear disguises soon Rob. Becoming quite the local celebrity.

I love your videos too. Mavis would be a good name for the new camera.

Well there is something I didn’t know. You have done some overseas travels recording your travels. Where can I find them?

Chalk and cheese Rob the quality is so Crisp you right about the fish eye effect on the go pro probably good for surfing or realestate but the turn off function on the DJI is handy. Bring on Chermie

I used to whipper snip around that park when Beenleigh was under the Gold Coast city council back in 2007.

Like your videos ,very interesting, better documentaries then on Mainstream.

I wanted the DJI but functionality with Android is sad plus that Chinese watching you fear. So GoPro it was. And I hardly use it vs you so good to learn the DJI works in your cases!

Welcome "Desiree" the DJI, that is my suggestion. After all you bought her because she was "desired"

Love your shows mate I reckon you should call her Rhonda I’m 56 and never met a Rhonda I didn’t like.

I had to replay the bit about poles. Just before you mentioned straight poles, you walked past two light poles that definitely looked bent. But on replaying it looks like they were actually bent light poles.

Nice. You remind me of Bill Peach. Grew up watching his videos. Always enjoy your work,thank you, from Tassie

The GoPro record linear as well which is one option you have....

interesting you have certainly been living your best life so many adventures and travels .

I have to say warp at 1:40 background pole (as you were mentioning this with the warp effect handrails of the bridge?). This camera may be not as bad then as others, the issue still exists however. Did you consider the Insta 360, the latest is amazing?

As my mate Goldie the gold fish just pointed out in a fish tank of angry bubbles, " who says we dont see the world through a fish I lens!??" And you oughta go walkabout after a good feed of magic mushrooms .

I have both a DJI Action 3 and a GoPro 8. The Action 3 is definitely better, except that it's prone to wind noise. I use my Ray Ban Meta glasses to record most of my audio now because they have directional sound recording and almost no wind noise (unless I'm on a motorcycle). I also find that the operating system on the GoPro 8 tends to crash, once so badly that I had to reset the whole camera before it would start working again.

👍🏻 thanks for the short video.... isn't it amazing how we keep hearing how technology saves us so much 🤔 but we constantly seem to be forking out $$ to upgrade and 🤔what happens to the old PC's camera's phones etc ? Very frustrating.... sorry just wonder 🤔 New name......🤔 Dot?

We all saw a lot through Deirdre. I'd call the new one Chuzwazza.

Great little camera. One tintsey winsey little criticism....its a little dark?!?...maybe contrast adjustment as full sun as natural light is bright not darkish... Cheers, keep up the good work

You do top videos, but from your split screen here with #1 and new camera, I prefer the old camera as the colours seem nicer

love it

I was wondering what you used to film

It's hard to believe but back in the day semis would use the red bridge (without the now added curved rails). I don't know what convention they used coming from different directions ?

I have to ask, how do u manage all yr data that you have recorded?

It was time to upgrade, ready for your next adventures in 2024! 😅

Hi Rob, just wondering if the DJI cameras suffer from the same overheating issues that GoPros are susceptible to?

OH, that's good advice. I could use a camera like this, but didn't like the fish eye effect of the Go Pro. I didn't realise you were using an action camera the whole time.

Are these any better than a modern phone? Which begs the question of why not use phone?

I nominate the name "Rex", if you know Latin then it will be self explanatory. now back to "Saying Goodbye, as a child traveling to the Gold Coast done the old single lane Highway we would hang our heads out the car window so we could get a good view of the bridge and the river.

Maybe “Russell”?

Long may she run.

Where to go from Deirdre? Brigid or maybe Dolores?

Nice camera, it will do you well. Did you know that the old "red" bridge was once used for part of a movie? Unfortunately I cannot remember the movies name. But it might of had Jean Claude Van-dam as the main character.

What about a 360 camera. That way we could look at what you are looking at.

Cosmo the Osmo

That title!!

I remember driving over that bridge in the mid 80's when it was still part of the Gold Coast Highway.

a groupy at the end👍

Audrey sounds like a new camera name

Who else thought this was a retirement from UKposts video

Remember many trips on that old bridge.

Cameron.

How about “Wanda”… (or wander…)…

I painted that bridge

Nellie

Call the camera Neville or Lesloi…..

Delilah!

Call it Mrs Gurkle !

Deidre? I can't think of the name Deidre without thinking of the Monty Python skit where a frequent mother is washing dishes at the sink when a new born baby falls to the floor at her feet and she says to her youngish daughter next to her... "Oh, get that would you Deidre?"

A DJI MIC would suit the combination now.

Maybe you should ask DJI for commission, since you’re part of the influence that informed my choice to get the Osmo Action 4 Adventure pack today.

Daphne

Mildred!!!
