thanks to irelo for sponsoring this video hey everyone Olia here so another everyday carry video I haven't done one for a year so I think it's time to do another one to be fair though not much has changed from my last one most of the things I actually pretty much the same but I know there's a lot of new viewers to the channel so I wanted to go through my current everyday carry so the first item we have here is the ulx sling bag full disclosure this is a product from my own store but yeah I've be
en using it to basically just carry around whatever I need to go around especially when it comes to like camera gear iPad and things like that this pretty much sticks with me most of the time uh when I'm going somewhere when I'm going holiday especially this is always with me and yeah it's actually deceivingly large you'd be quite surprised at how much it could fit in here it has two pockets One slim outer zip pocket where you can put sort of things that you need quick access to and then it has
one main large compartment inside inside there is also another zipper pocket and there are two sort of compartments for organizing your things and of course like I said there's the one main large compartment it's made from a sort of canvassy material it's water resistant and yeah for everyday stuff it really is perfect I feel like the size of it as well it's it's sort of not too big but not too small it's sort of in between I'd say so it's a medium-sized sling bag and yeah it's quite multi-purpo
se even though right now I have my camera and my lens in here I can obviously switch those out to whatever I need to I like how versatile this bag is so if we look at what's inside the bag we have my Sony a7c we have a lens for my Sony a7c we also have iPad Mini and I have a belt in a Belkin a belting a Belkin power bank for my iPhone so this is the Sony a7c this is the camera that I carry around especially when I go on a holiday when I travel this is the main camera that I use to be honest thou
gh I am using it a little bit less because of the iPhone 14 pro but when I want to take pictures when I'm traveling especially when I'm traveling I love to have a dedicated camera so I can take very high quality pictures and this is perfect I absolutely love the size of it it's really compact it's a really small camera full frame camera and then my favorite well I say favorite lens these two are my favorite lenses these two are the ones that I use but I'd say out of these two this is my favorite
lens the 35 millimeter 1.8 the most important thing for me is keeping a compact setup I don't want to carry around something too bulky too heavy and yeah this can easily be one-handed no problem I have a strap on it as well from in case because I'm in the Sony ecosystem as well it just makes sense to stick with Sony I use Sony for video I use Sony for photos so having all the lenses work across all of my cameras yeah it's great like I feel like at this city to go with something else I I have ob
viously considered Fuji I have considered Leica I really really really like the Leica Q2 but I don't really have any way to justify purchasing a Leica Q2 to be honest mainly because this is as close as you can get to a Leica Q2 even though it's a bit larger sort of that way but I'd say the rest of it is actually there's a similar sort of size the picture quality is I think that's Up For Debate really I do like the sort of Leica look that people like to like to say that people like to go for but
I edit my pictures quite a lot anyway you know I do quite a lot of editing I apply my own presets and stuff so that's the main reason why I haven't really jumped to getting a Leica Q2 and also because it's such an expensive camera it's like five grand four grand yeah I'd be worried about sort of carrying that around with me on holiday because if that thing breaks that's going to be expensive to repair the other lens that I have is the 28 to 200 Tamron this is an incredible lens like I'm really s
urprised that this lens even exists in this sort of form factor in this size because because you have 28 on the wide end which is quite wide but then 200 on the other end 200 in a lens this compact is is amazing obviously the aperture does suffer but because I mainly use this outside in the daytime it's really not an issue I love the pictures this thing produces at 200 that compression that you get from from shooting at 200 is really nice the camera itself though can take some phenomenal picture
s from the few times that I've traveled over the last year the the pictures that come out of this thing I'm just so happy with them it's just a really good way to document my travels because part of the reason why I like to travel is to take pictures as well so yeah absolutely love this setup I absolutely love this camera when Fuji do release an X100 update so right now we have the x100v if they do release an updated version I will most likely purchase it just to have as another camera but we'll
see about that right now Sony a7c is my main photography camera and yeah it produces some incredible pictures next up we have the iPad Mini so the iPad Mini is actually my favorite iPad Main because of the size I really really like the size of this iPad I have the M1 iPad Pro I had the M2 iPad Pro I have the normal iPad as well but this is the iPad that I keep going back to when it comes to traveling because of the form factor obviously it would have been really really nice to see the pro motio
n display the 120hz pro motion display on the iPad mini but at the same time it's not really a big deal for me personally because my iPad Mini acts as a sort of media consumption device I'm not using it without pencil out often and I'm not using it to sort of go around the UI and do any sort of anything fancy basically this is mainly just used for watching movies watching TV shows playing a few games here and there and reading and obviously you know the odd browsing maybe the odd photo editing o
r whatever for that sort of stuff it is fantastic it is an absolutely amazing device and the compactness is really what sort of attracts me to this device the case that I have on it is the Apple folio case that I picked up from their store just stuck on Via magnets which is really nice it is quite thin though so don't expect it to protect your iPad from any crazy drops and stuff but for everyday use for me it's perfect you know being able to sort of stand my iPad out when I want to watch a movie
or whatever um having it sort of landscape down when I'm editing pictures or something like that and what I also like to do is when I'm on a flight I will actually put it in the sort of magazine pocket that you could say and have the iPad in there and then I can I can watch my movies without having the table out on my seat so yeah really useful case really really love the iPad Mini it's definitely my favorite iPad right now thanks to irelo for sponsoring this video so I've actually been NRL log
user ever since I discovered it back in 2020. irelia is an app that offers e-sims for pretty much everywhere around the world so if you're an avid traveler and don't want to pay higher roaming fees or just need mobile data on the go this is the perfect service it works with any device that supports an e-sim which most modern devices do now and needs to be Network unlocked that means no need to buy or carry around another physical Sim which requires the pain and effort of switching them manually
most devices that support e-sims can support two sims at the same time so you don't need to remove your regular Sim so once you've downloaded the arello app you can choose your destination and package so I'm just going to choose United Kingdom just to make it easy choose a package one gigabyte of data for seven days buy now complete order once you've completed the order you need to install the esim of course every device will be different but I'm doing it here on an iPhone 14. install esim it w
ill then guide you on how to install the e-sim so we'll just do that next next next install esim continue add data plan and there we are ready to go we can see at the top now we have the four bars showing that we have signal and look the Sim is working you can choose from a variety of different plans to fit your requirements so if you're going to be staying in one country it's best to choose an e-sync for that location but if you happen to be traveling between countries in one region such as Eur
ope or Asia you can buy a regional Sim or if you need a global Sim that's also available covering you in many countries in different regions this has been a lifesaver for me when I've been traveling a lot more convenient than having to use physical Sims so if you're interested in ollo I'll leave a link to it down in the description below make sure to check in the battery back that I have right now is from Belkin nothing special nothing too crazy the reason why I chose this one is because one is
quite affordable it's quite cheap for what it is um two it's actually one of the thinner ones of the battery Banks and because of the thinness of it I can have it on the back of my phone and still have it in my pocket without it looking ridiculous with the big old bulge in my pocket so yeah great little battery Bank it does only do seven and a half whites but again that's enough for me if you look looking for a thin battery Bank to charge your iPhone via magsafe VIA magnets I'd recommend this on
e next up we have the iPhone 14 pro so I have the iPhone 14 pro in space black and I also have the umber case on it from Apple this is the official Amber case from Apple I mean it's basically saddle brown right and the case itself has actually held up really well you can already see I've got a few dings on it I've got a few scrapes on it and it's done a good job of protecting my iPhone especially because you know I do drop it now and then I do scrape it here and there being able to protect my iP
hone I want to keep it fresh I want to keep it clear looking the only thing is with the brown case that it does Mark up quite heavily around the edges and over time it can become darker and darker some people won't like that but I actually like it I like how it patinas over time I like how it ages over time and if you want it to actually get back to to the rich orangey brown color you can just clean it as well you can use a leather cleaner and get it back to that but I like it when it's a little
bit used actually I think it looks pretty awesome and yeah I've gone with umber this year usually I go for black but I just thought hey let's try something let's go for the brown one and I've really been enjoying it when it comes to the phone itself you know it's cool the dynamic Island all that sort of stuff but the main thing I'm here for is that camera the 48 megapixel sensor on this thing is just seriously incredible iPhone cameras are getting so good that I'm just carrying around my mirror
less a lot less often the pictures that this thing produce many people mistake as taken with a pro camera people always ask me on Twitter on Instagram hey did you take this picture with your phone or did you take it with your camera and I think that's actually a testament to how good the camera is on this thing there's something about the larger sensor and the better dynamic range that really helps compete with professional cameras and I obviously shoot in Pro raw so shooting in Pro raw it does
remove quite a lot of the processing that Apple does and the processing is actually a big issue because a lot of people have been complaining about the processing that comes out of images that you shoot with the with the camera on this thing if you're shooting Pro raw you can get rid of a lot of that and really sort of uh manipulate the images to look a lot more professional the depth of field is awesome too you can separate the background from subjects really well I have a few here where you ca
n see how the background is really nice and blurry with the with the sort of subject being in Focus I use my presets across all of my images so if anyone is interested in getting the same look check those out next up we have the airpods pro third generation and yeah these airpods I think are heavily underrated they're so so good it's just crazy how Apple have really sort of cornered that market when it comes to earbuds because the airpods probably third generation the sound quality the noise can
cellation everything about this is is so so good and it really comes in clutch when I'm at the gym at the gym when there's music blowing when there's other people working out being able to have these in and sort of isolate myself it doesn't obviously block out every single sound but it really does a good job of blocking out most of the sound so that I can listen to my music or watch a TV show or watch a movie whilst I'm working out next up we have the Apple Watch series 7. so I do have the Apple
watch Ultra as well and I use the Apple watch Ultra for a few weeks I really liked it absolutely fantastic watch and I would recommend it for those who are looking for an Apple Watch on steroids basically but the reason why I have the series 7 and the reason why I continue to use it is because I've just found that Apple watch Ultra to be a bit too big for my wrist I have quite skinny wrists and I don't want a big old bulky watch I also found it just catching on things because it was so big for
my wrist so I much prefer the smaller form factor of this series 7. I also didn't bother upgrading to the series 8 mainly because the upgrades just didn't really seem worth it so I've stuck with the series 7. this is the stainless steel version and it has held up incredibly well to scrapes and scratches I also have the stainless steel link bracelet which I've had since 2015 which is what seven years now that I had this link bracelet uh well yeah eight years is coming up to you I had this link br
acelet and it has held up incredibly well there are a few scratches on it here and there but I have put this link bracelet through its absolute Paces I'm wearing it every single day I rarely ever take it off I only ever take my watch off when I go to sleep I wear it at the gym I wear it in the shower I wear it when I'm doing anything really I never take it off and yeah the link bracelet just looks so good I also feel like it looks really classy for compared to most other watch straps this looks
really classier it's as good I mean maybe I'm sort of hyping up here but I'd say it's as good as a strap that you'd get with a Rolex or something because the quality of the craft the craftsmanship on it is fantastic everyone always compliments it when they see it they always do they do always ask where'd you get that strap from and I tell them and then they see the price and they're like okay that makes a lot of sense because it's not cheap I think it's five or six hundred for the strap alone an
d which is as much as an Apple Watch so if you want the one of the best Apple watch straps this is the one to get and it will last you for ages as well I'm really happy with it it's definitely one of the best sort of purchases I've made for my Apple watch and I keep using it when I when I upgrade my watches if I upgrade the watch itself I always use the same strap so yeah Apple Watch series 7 stainless steel version if there aren't any crazy Updates this year to the Apple watch I probably won't
upgrade again but we'll see I'm hoping that they have something interesting in store for the next generation of the Apple watch my current wallet is the bifold leather wallet from ulx made from full grain leather Again full disclosure this is from my own store and you can see this wallet has has creased up has been used quite well it's sort of lost its shape a little bit um just from using it over the last year or two I do actually prefer compact card holders but because I'm carrying around quit
e a few cards and I carry around cash as well when I need to especially because I have a few businesses so I need cars for for those businesses yeah I have to carry on a wallet and yeah it's done a really good job no issues with it I really like it made from full grain leather so it should last pretty much forever if I take care of it yeah fantastic little wallet nice and compact as well fits all my cash fits all my cards I'm really happy with it my key organizer also hasn't changed this is from
orbit key leather sort of strap with a with I guess uh I don't even know what you call that a metal hoop on the end and it also has the black Hardware I do also have this cool little sort of multi-tool that comes with the orbit key um I use it for when I need to cut open boxes um I don't really drink so I don't rarely ever need to use the bottle opener yeah just a cool little tool to have it also acts as a screwdriver actually I forgot to say it does have a flathead on the end so yeah just a co
ol uh little sort of key organizer I really like it does the job for me and then finally I have my glasses these are from where where they're from they're from Bailey Nelson they're the homo model so yeah black frame with silver arms on it however I think a lot of people will be quite intrigued I won't be wearing glasses that often anymore mainly because I'm getting laser eye surgery soon so yeah I won't actually need glasses I might still wear sort of Blue Light Glass glasses I also feel like i
t might look a bit weird me not wearing glasses on the channel anymore I feel like it's become almost like my style my brand you could say but yeah I'm getting Lasik laser surgery soon uh just sort out my eyes because I'm actually sick of wearing glasses I don't really like wearing glasses all the time I want to be able to take them off in the evening but I need them when I'm on my computer when I'm driving stuff like that I need glasses for those sorts of situations hopefully with laser eye sur
gery I won't need them anymore and that is it that is it for my everyday carry if you have any suggestions if you have any product ideas and stuff please leave them in the comments below I'll of course leave links to everything I can as well hopefully you guys enjoyed it follow me on Instagram and Twitter and subscribe for more
