That's what 1.5 speed is for

Thanks man! I did not, but I appreciate the suggestion. I will look into that

Thank you man!

🙏🏻

Thanks!

Thank you man!

Thanks!

The diameter is around 21”

Yes, a little shaky. If you are using it for quick montages it works well. I will be posting a video soon showing how I used it in the project I bought it for. Can’t really notice the bumps with quick cuts

Thanks!

The Impact combo boom. I have 3 of them and use them all the time. Never had one break on me, they are much lighter than lugging around a c-stand and they also boom out (We hung the red back drop on one of them). I'd definitely recommend them.

@@camnails awesome thank u cam!

Thank you! There will definitely be more to come!

I agree! For me, IQ is almost always going to be a higher priority than ease of use. After almost 3 years of using the Komodo now, I have learned to live with or work around its quirks in more doc style environments. But yes, the FX6 would definitely be easier to use

@@camnails I feel you! a lot of filmmakers nowadays don't have image quality as their top priority (everything has to be easy as it could be). But for me, if I don't like the image coming from my camera, I'm not inspired to shoot..(I know it's not just about the camera, but I hope you understand what I'm saying). In fact, I would love to shoot on film, but it's too expensive unfortunately for me at the moment... otherwise I definitely would even if it means a slower and more difficult process.

Thank you!

Thank you! I have many more planned!

Thanks man!

I watched reviews and test footage on them, and they seem pretty cool. I have thought about getting some old L series EF glass, so that could be a nice option for me.

​@@camnails Nice. The Tuners are a bit complicated to be honest. I would recommend getting a fast F1.4 or F1.8 prime. The Tuners work with F2.8 zooms but you get the most out of faster primes.

Thanks Bryce, I will test that out!

True! I have yet to fry mine

Thanks man. Keep at it!

Thank you! Yes, my in-house job wasn’t a production company. They just wanted a team to create videos internally. I left there just over a year ago after starting a production co. and freelancing as a dp/cam op

Thank you Nicolas!

Thanks man! I like to keep things simple if I can. These setups weren't very complex, so if I didn't keep it quick, I'd feel as if I was needlessly rambling.

Thanks!

Thank you!

For sure, the only reason I use an umbrella in this situation is for portability. On most projects I use an Aputure Light Dome, and the light quality is much better. The inside of the umbrella is actually white, but the bounce is still a bit hard. If it was a larger umbrella, that might would help too. I will keep looking for solutions to continue improving upon this setup.

And you can’t beat the size of that light lineup. They would be great to have in any kit.

​​@@camnailsohhh I see now. It does pack down very small. One thing you can do is mount the umbrella further away from the light so that it fills up the entire reflector. That should make it softer, but may decrease output. The larger the source, the softer the light.

@@VideoVo-Tech Yes, good point!

It’s because the light source is so large and soft. It is able to fill in those areas under the eyes. If it was a hard source from above, like the sun, it would have created those shadows.

Hey, I appreciate it! That’s what I would like to do, but I keep delaying it because there are so many other things I’d rather get than rectangle pieces of glass🤣 Currently I have a small rig matte box and a wooden camera zip box for the super speeds. I use a simtray and put a vnd on it (both from simmod). The breakthrough adapter is the one I wanted to get that was having tons of manufacturing delays. I’m pretty sure that has been resolved though. But like you said, I’d kind hate to invest that much into something that can only be used for RF mount cameras.

@@camnails I know the struggle. I worked a lot with the canon EF to RF VariND Adapter and it messes with the colors a lot. And I did not get any consistency with the exposure. SmallRig sent me the mini mattebox a few years ago and I used it a little bit, with a vari-nd, then I got the rectangle filters from Formatt (the superslim-versions). Then I had to upgrade the mattebox, because the Smallrig-One is crap 😀 The placement of the filters is not right, the distance to the lens is to big and causes double images and flaring. So I upgraded to the Tilta MB-t12 and thats way better. But the industry standard (at least here in Germany) is the ARRI LMB-5 and there is definetly a difference in build quality and features. Like I said, I think you'll work with other non rf-cameras in the future.

@@dielichtfaenger_academy Yes, I didn’t even bother buying the Komodo package that came with the canon vnd because of how bad the color shift is. I had the same issues with my smallrig matte box. When I was shooting a music video in NYC, I had all sorts of weird ghosting going on. I ended up taking it off and putting my vnd directly on the lens threads. What part of Germany are you in? I had the chance to visit Frankfurt a few months ago, and I absolutely loved it! My mother’s side of the family is German, and I really want to go back and explore more of the country.

@@camnailsI live near Ulm, it's more in the South. A one hour drive to the alps. Frankfurt is about 3,5h away from me. Hit me up, if you're in the South 😀

Yes, having great people around you is key! Not the biggest fan of the sigma 18-35, but it gets the job done. After using primarily vintage glass over the last couple years, the one thing I will give that lens is that it’s sharp, which I need for certain types of projects. But yeah.. over all the image has no character and it almost feels flat. If you want character in your image while using that lens, you have to do some heavy lifting in the grade!

Thanks!

Thank you man!

It does sound a bit better, but I was doing it more so because I didn’t want to clip it directly to my t-shirt.

Thank you!

Thank you Kendra! It really is worth the investment.

Thanks Alan! I appreciate you checking out my videos.
