Photographer explores Chernobyl in 2019 with the ultimate travel camera

In this video, we spend the day exploring Chernobyl, the site of the Chernobyl disaster, one of the worst nuclear incidents in history, and decades of looting, to capture our own photos of Chernobyl. Armed with the Fujifilm X-T30, we explore some of Chernobyl's most iconic sites, such as the epicentre of it all, Chernobyl's reactor 4, the abandoned town of Pripyat, with the Chernobyl amusement park that houses the Pripyat ferris wheel, as well as the massive over-the-horizon radar station of Duga. We even managed to climb to the top of a derelict apartment block to get a roof-top view of the thriving nature that's fast reclaiming the once proud architecture of Chernobyl in 2019.

As well as capturing the tranquil scenes of history's worst nuclear disaster, we have a look at our pick for the ultimate travel camera in 2019, the Fujifilm X-T30 to see how well it manages to perform in challenging environment while shooting on the fly.

We hope you enjoy this video. Exploring Chernobyl and the surrounding area has been an amazing journey, and one we'd love to repeat. It's one of the most impressive and interesting locations we've ever been to. It was not only calm and tranquil, but it was even peaceful - despite years of looting and neglect. So join us as we ask what is Chernobyl like today?

Likewise, the Fujifilm X-T30 is a stunning camera. We can't praise it highly enough, with it's 26.1MP sensor, fast shooting speed and compact size, it's definitely our pick for the best travel camera in 2019.

Whether it's exploring Chernobyl yourself, or picking up an X-T30 to do it, It's highly recommended for all photographers, regardless of skill level, but get there quick before the decay and tourism set in even further.
