Photographer and Cinematographer Bruce Dorn

Host Scott Brady and co-host Matt Scott welcome photographer/filmmaker Bruce Dorn to the Overland Journal Podcast, joking about gadgets and travel before discussing portable Light & Motion Stella LED lights and Scott’s Honda Africa Twin DCT impressions. Bruce shares practical advice for overland photography: prioritize making images, shoot in prime light, keep the camera ready, understand changing light, and simplify gear to avoid missing shots, citing lost moose, wolf, and bear-cub photo opportunities. They talk lenses and bodies (notably Canon 28–300 and 24–105), weather sealing, compactness, battery capacity, and Canon Pro Service, along with Bruce’s Canon Explorer of Light role and prototype testing history. Bruce reflects on his career path, regrets about not directing features, favorite places (Norway, Okavango/Botswana, New Zealand), the value of open, respectful travel, and critiques narcissistic imagery. They close with upcoming shoots and events and share Instagram handles.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
