The purpose of this paper is to critically reflect on the added value of video in ethnographic research that seeks to understand peoples' lived experiences of health and place. Of particular interest is the potential for video to elicit the embodied, multisensory and relational nature of people's place experiences that are the focus of much recent health geography research. We draw on our experiences of using video in an ethnographic study that sought to explore the experiences of people with intellectual disabilities engaged in nature based (or 'green care') therapeutic interventions for health and wellbeing. We argue that video has the potential to capture aspects of people's wellbeing experiences that may be lost using other methods, such as observational field noting. Consideration is also given to how researchers using video methods should seek to (re)present people's wellbeing experiences, as well as the practical and ethical challenges that this approach has for those working in the field of health geography.
本文旨在批判性地反思视频在民族志研究中的附加值，这种研究旨在理解人们的健康和地点的生活体验。特别感兴趣的是视频引发人们对地方体验的身体、多感官和关系性质的潜力，这是最近健康地理学研究的焦点。我们借鉴了在一项民族志研究中使用视频的经验，该研究旨在探讨参与基于自然（或“绿色关怀”）的治疗干预以促进健康和福祉的智力残疾人士的体验。我们认为，视频有可能捕捉到人们的幸福感体验的某些方面，而这些方面可能会在使用其他方法（如观察性实地记录）时丢失。此外，还考虑了使用视频方法的研究人员应如何寻求（重新）呈现人们的幸福感体验，以及这种方法对健康地理学领域的工作者在实践和伦理方面带来的挑战。
