Rex Pemberton - Young

Aussie Adventurer

Rex Pemberton has completed his 'Seven Summits' quest, taking him into

the record books as the youngest Australian to climb seven of the

highest peaks over the four corners of the globe, in less than two years.

Already the youngest Australian to summit Everest and having conquered

five of the seven summits, Rex has now completed his bid to climb the highest mountain on every continent.

Accompanying Rex on his quest was a Panasonic 3CCD SD video camera. This model is light and compact, weighing

just 243g (without battery). It was easily carried in Rex's pocket to shoot MPEG2 video directly to SD cards for

downloading to computer once he returned to base camp.

"It shoots in 16:9 and uses a 3CCD camera system, so it's got the ideal combination of a great picture and compact size

for this expedition.I find the 3CCD technology is of the highest quality, which is what I demand in a small, lightweight

documentary camera."

"The O.I.S. system compensates for handshake when shooting video. This is great for telephoto shooting. The image

is much smoother, plus if you are tracking or following someone and walking while shooting, it takes a lot of the

movement out of the image. This is especially important for all of the hand held shots that make up such a large portion

of my productions."

The Seven Summits

1. Mt Kosciuszko 2228m Australia

2. Vinson Massif 4897m Antarctica

3. Mt Elbrus 5633m Russia

4. Mt Kilimanjaro 5963m Africa

5. Mt McKinley 6195m USA

6. Mt Aconcagua 6962m

7. Mt Everest 8848m Nepal

Rex explains: "I was shooting footage for a documentary on the 'Seven Summits'

expedition. The camcorder's small size meant it can easily be carried right to a

summit and kept secure, warm and accessible in a jacket pocket. Weight is really

important on a solo climb – for example at Mt McKinley I had to carry around 100

kilos of gear and supplies. Also, as the camcorder doesn't use moving parts to tape,

it is more resilient to the rigours of a climb.
