Am I the only one that has two Tripods? A heavy sturdy as Hell one, and a much lighter one that I can use to do extensive hiking with? There is no way I’m going to take that heavy one as I hike uphill through my local State Park, as an example. I can remember so many places which I did extensive hiking through areas like Death Valley, Point Reyes, lower and upper Sierras – that there is no way I could bring along that 800lb tripod. But I can remember many shots that I literally couldn’t have done without my camera being stable on a tripod, especially early and late.

In reply to drdroad. Very true, drdroad...if you don't have a remote shutter release, you can set the camera's timer to several seconds, thereby mitigating any need to touch the camera during the shot. However, if you plan on taking a long-exposure photograph, with a shutter speed longer than your camera settings allow (i.e. longer than 30 seconds), a remote shutter is usually a necessity.

I have a wired remote that recently wouldn’t work (I think I squeezed the wiring too much). So I just set the shutter release timer to 2 seconds. No need to touch the camera. No issues, except that tedious 2 seconds.

In reply to Kenneth. While the D810 is a great camera it is certainly not entry-level. The D5600 just came out but the D5500 I'm sure would serve you well. Consider going with the Nikon over the Pentax as you'll have more lens choices including 3rd party ones made by Tamron and Sigma (less options for Pentax). You can make great photos with any camera. Start with one you can afford and understand.

Kenneth,

Have you considered buying a previously owned (used) camera? You can get a used Nikon D810 (which is, IMO, still one of the best landscape cameras on the market) well within your price range on eBay.

Anyone got any advice for me, I am looking for a good landscape camera for under £1000 (just for the body). so far the best ones I have found have been the nikon d5500 and the Pentax k-70. Both seem like great cameras but I can’t help but feel that I am missing something. I was hoping a fellow landscape photographer could give me a few pointers and show me the way.

Agree with everything you say. I would also add that, along with good, sturdy shoes, you invest in knee high wellies (dunno what they’re called outside of Oz but they’re plastic type high boots used for walking in mud). These have been a godsend to me on many occasions when I was shooting in mud/wet and was sinking in gunk trying to get into position.
