I use a Lumix GH4 with two weather sealed zooms, the 12-35mm f/2.8 and 35-100mm f/2.8.

There are several other Micro 4/3 weather sealed bodies and lenses.

The flagship Lumix G9 and midrange Lumix G95 are good stills-centric models that record fine video. The GH5 is video-centric, but makes nice stills.

Most of the Leica-branded Panasonic lenses are also weather-sealed. Here’s a list of the majority of Micro 4/3 lenses:

I’ll let an Olympus user chime in about their camera gear...

Thanks for the recommendation. I found it on Kindle.

Since I am an Olympus user amongst others I will chime in with my take; Olympus M1 mark II and the Olympus 12-100 lens. Internal stabilization in the body as well as stabilization in the lens. Equiv. 35 mm FOV of 24-200. This will give you up to 6.5 stops advantage . Use as high of shutter speed as you can and try and anticipate and time your shots best you can. BTW, ALL weather sealed to boot.

Not sure if anyone else mentioned this, but usually the center of the boat has less movement than the bow or stern.

I have not been able to do any shooting due to back problems can walk but not far .Before we traveled to the
I invested in a travelalator : it is walker with brakes and a seat and a place under seat where I can put my two cameras I can use seat to sit and shoot using handels with the brakes set and rest my arms on the handle makes a steady support from I use a Nikon d300 with 70 200 2.8 lens not very light work great .
the travelalator is 28" wide and will hold a 500 lb person and has 8" wheels
I am 83 years and been act in photography since high school ,I still do all my own finishing .I hope this will be of some help.Ron

I agree, get a high end video camera that has ibis to take out the shake. Lumix makes great cameras that will steady out anyone's hand held shots. YouTube these cameras and see for your self. But if you are not getting a new camera, do up the shutter by opening up a fast lens and go for it with what you have.

Thanks will research

A shutter speed of 1/4000 or faster would probably work. But, I suggest you look into a Stesdycam outfit. The are a number of different camera stabilizers on Amazon.com starting from $20 to $300.

I have used the Olympus E-M1mkII and the 12-100 f4 Pro IS that MrBill stated to go around Germany (rented the 12-100) and only took it off for three shots of a door in Heidelberg Castle that the 12mm end of the lens could not cover. That was 11 days of travel, castles shot from the Reine River, shooting in the rain, snow on the mountain top, narrow streets, wind, dust, hot, and cold, and never needed another lens except for three shots. And the 12-100 did some 1/2 lifesize close-up shots too. And if you would also note that Bill's Panasonic outfit covers the exact same range with two lenses at a stop faster. Both outfits are small, lightweight, and not as costly as compared to APS-C and FF outfits covering the same range with similar abilities.

The lenses that I actually own are the 7-14 f2.8 Pro, the 14-54 f2.8/3.5, the 50-200 f2.8/3.5, and a Zuiko 90 f2 macro. The first lense is a micro 4/3 lens, the middle two are just 4/3rds lenses (non-micro), and the last is a sharp old film lens. With the 1.4X and 2X teleconverters, this setup covers 14mm to 800mm in 35mm terms. My next lens purchase will be the 12-100 because of the ILIS. I will be switching out the 14-54 with the 12-100. This will give me a travel camera system of 7-14, 12-100, a small and large flash, camera body, extra battery, and filters that will fit into a camera bag 6"X11"X12", weigh less than 7 pounds, cover a range of 14mm to 200mm + 1/2 lifesize (35mm terms), all of it weatherproof, and image stability of 6.5 stops (hand holdable to 4 seconds so far). That is not a bad travel system.

Should you forgo renting a 4/3rds camera system, like others have said, up the shutter speed and ISO and shoot as wide open as possible. And be sure to enjoy some of the show without out the camera glued to your eye. That will make your photos even more amazing to you.

A high speed and lead the shot like you would with a gun.
