HI All,

Great Video. I saw more on the state of the tracks in 10 mins, than watching Your 4x4 on Monday Nights.

What Camera were you using? and What Format?

Please advise

Stuart

I'm also curious as to which camera you used, I assumed Go Pro?

Cameras were a combination of Panasonic compact camera looking out the windscreen, GoPro 2 on the side of the FJ and handheld out the window for some shots and also a few from a Canon DSLR.

Editing software was Adobe Premiere Pro.

Steve
The FJ has the same V6 petrol with auto gearbox as the current Prado - fuelled used was about 120lts from Birdsville to Mt Dare using ulp95.

Madkore
My FJ has a TJM T3 bulbar, X-ray halogen spotties, dual batteries, inverter for camera batteries, 60lt Waeco fridge, own built drawer system using plastic bin as drawer, Rhino tray on Rhino commercial bars using an ARB fit kit to the roof, 35lt of water in a flexitank bladder and a 20lt plastic jerry. Aux fuel tank is Longer Ranger Tank 125lt giving about 190lt of usable fuel. TJM snorkel, TJM xgs gold shocks and lift. Goodyear MTR Kevlars on std rims.

It's my daily drive so most of this kit comes off/out so it looks pretty std round town ..... Apart from the red dust that keeps appearing

Awesome
Definitely an awesome trip made all the better sharing it with the family.

Trust me red dust appears for years, just keep covering it with more
