I need to set up a camera in a vineyard for over a year for an ongoing video project. Quality is important. In a perfect world, I could match a Sony mirrorless (or equivalent). At the very worst, a 4k go pro or something similar.

Will need to have a solar/1+ month battery life situation.

Will likely stake rebar or something into the soil and strap camera onto it.

Any advice? Worried/not interested in something about anything that looks like it was filmed with a Ring home security camera.

EDIT: looking for links to these setups/gear needed. Must be waterproof from power source to camera. Gopro is last resort but most likely option. Not familiar with how to dummy battery from solar and all that and that’s where I need the most help.
