Reduced to the iphone
We had an accident in January on the Crooked River in Westland.
After a steep descent from the bush to the river, Kathryn was climbing around an obstacle in the river and her binoculars pouch strapped to the chest, which held the camera at the time, flipped open and the camera was lost in the river.
I tried fishing around with the walking pole in white water to catch the lanyard. It was impossible to see and it likely slipped down between boulders anyway. The loss of the SD card was regrettable because of the images it held.
Maybe it makes her kit lighter today but the iphone is no comparison to the what the camera could do.
