Shuswap Falls, BC – Photo Shoot with Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ300 & FujiFilm X-T4 – Shuswap Falls near Lumby in British Columbia facilitates BC Hydro’s Wilsey Dam which features multiple waterfalls year round. A prominent viewing platform high above one of the dam’s bypass channels provides spectacular views to the frothing waters below. Further north along the course of the Shuswap River at 29 Km distance is the site of Sugar Lake dam. Historically known as Brenda Falls, the river drops there about 30 feet. The structure is a 150 m long and 13 m high concrete buttress dam that provides storage and regulation for the BC Hydro Shuswap Falls generating station downstream.

The FujiFilm and Panasonic’s LUMIX FZ300’s features, splash proof and dustproof rugged design with tight seals on every joint, dial and button, stand up to harsh weather conditions and challenging environments. Shooting at or near waterfalls are no problem for these camera due to their ruggedness. The image to the left was taken from a viewing platform at the dam which allows for dramatic shots of the raging waters below.
