I just unscrewed the two tiny screws that hold the mic holder on, then put them in a zip lock bag so I didn’t lose them. I didn’t bother covering up the tiny holes that remained

I just saw him post it ❤️

Thanks, really appreciate it! Did you find me after Mark Bones video?

I was wondering the same thing. Only example I can think of is if you need a stronger ND

Two reasons why you'd use ND on an FX6 - you want more than 7 stops of ND (EG: shooting F1.4 during midday sun because the client loves bokeh) - you are having issues with the internal ND (EG: polarisation issues shooting into water that wouldn't happen with a 'basic' ND) I've never personally experienced the second issue, but I do sometimes hit the first issue. Also, if you think you will need more than 5 stops you can put a 3 stop ND on there, then you get 5-10 stops from the internal system so it gives you wiggle room Aside from that 'ND on FX6', the other reasons I have filters on the sony lenses is - I sometimes use a diopter ("close up") filter to get closer focusing, especially since I sold my macro lens, or when using anamorphic which has generally horrific minimum focus distance - I often use a glow filter because I love the look of them - I use ND on these if I mount the lens to an FX3 instead of the FX6

@@Isaac_Insoll ah that make sense, thanks for explaining :)

Maybe if you were watching at 0.25x 🤣

@@Isaac_Insoll hahahahaha 😒😒😂😂😂🖖🏻

I've had this for about 8 months now and there was one time (about 6 months ago) where it dropped off the network, so i just unplugged the power and plugged it back in. Aside from that once incident it has been perfect the whole time

I'm working on it, i swear! I think years of watching TH-cam at 1.5x has warped my mind

​@@Isaac_InsollNo worries. Always time to get better 👊.

I have no issues shooting 25p for long periods of time, but there is definitely issues shooting 50p for longer periods. My latest video on the channel (FX6 long term review) I had the X-H2 as A cam and X-T4 as B cam. The X-H2 went forever but after 45 mins I was getting low battery and overheat warnings on the X-T4. I realised that I had accidentally left it in 50p mode and shot a long video. Aside from that, no overheating issues.

Honestly I don't own the ZVE10, I was just setting it up for my friends studio. I feel like the runtime would be limited by so many factors including ambient temperature and I've never personally tested the runtime so I can't answer that.

There are two delays going on: 1. a tiny (1 or 2 frame) delay that this monitor just has all the time, and it's noticable when compared to another monitor like a small HD 2. wireless transmission delay. Plugging in directly to the camera will mean you only have the first delay. It's not a deal breaker at all and totally fine, but it is noticable when comparing it to other monitors.

This definitely does NOT have touch focus

Depends on the load rating of the fork 🤣

Did you enable webcam mode on the camera itself?

Thanks, really appreciate it 🙂

Thanks so much, really appreciate it 🔥

100% agreed. And it’s even more of an improvement because of how bad the old connection was. Like I have other non-locking barrel connectors that felt better than it

Thanks for leaving a comment, feels great knowing this video is helping people ❤️

I feel like it might work if it’s not fully inflated so you still have a bit of “cushion” to it

@@Isaac_Insoll yeah, that makes sense, I waa thinking to figure out a super portable version of it

Yep, you can just use NPF batteries on the back place like most on camera monitors do 😀

@@Isaac_Insoll great thanks!

I’d suggest either using a larger aperture (EG: F4 instead of F2) or keeping both subjects the same distance from the camera. For example, if the person on the left side is exactly 1 metre from the camera, then make sure the person on the right side of the frame is also one metre away, then they should both be in focus

Sorry I can’t help with that one. I threw out the manual and all packaging as soon as I got it up and running. I did email their support department with some questions (about the security side of things) and they were really responsive.

How did it work out for you? Is it helpful or was I all hype?

@@Isaac_Insoll It worked out great. It definitely helps a ton to steady shots out and get that lower shot, but still be stable. It's also nice and compact so it feels a little more discreet than a full shoulder rig, but more stable than just hand-held.

I actually don’t know. I bought it second hand from my wife’s sisters husband who had it for years. I’m guessing I’d search for ‘Hollywood vintage stage light’ if trying to find something similar

I don’t have an atomos ninja but I presume it’s similar image quality to the shinobi. Compared to the shinobi I like this slightly more but they aren’t that different, so I’d consider this a ‘shinobi plus wireless features’ rather than a ‘much better image than a shinobi’ if that makes sense

I’m actually not sure, it has been working perfectly for me for a couple of years now on both FX3 and FX6. I suspect it’s digital as analog was only needed on them to support older bodies, but I can’t actually say that for sure. Either way, it has worked fine on both types of cameras

How did it go? Did you actually find it useful?

@@Isaac_Insoll yes, pretty useful, especially sitting down on a chair panning and shooting, you have to tinker with the quality and quantity of cushion though

lol, I panicked at the first half of that comment and was about to blame Daniel for it 😂 Yea I’ve got the M1 enhanced now so Daniel has the original M1 and is loving it 🔥

I’m using Home Assistant. This whole device is powered by ESP Home which is built to connect simple smart home devices like this to home assistant without using the cloud. I didn’t want “cloud” as I don’t want to pay other companies or trust them with my data. If you want something that works directly with google home without home assistant then I’m sure there are multiple options out there for you, but this isn’t the one you want, and I don’t have anything I can recommend as I’ve only got experience with this one.

I didn’t do scientific testing on the M1 enhanced but it absolutely felt the same as the original M1, which means it’s noticeable compared to a SmallHD but after using it for 1 min you get used to it and don’t notice it.

The camera itself is recording at 4K. There is no video interface on this particular setup as it’s optimising for low cost and easy setup

I’ve recently started using the M1 enhanced to transmit to a 15” monitor and would agree totally. On a smaller monitor like a 7” receiver the image compression is acceptable but at 15” sizes it’s great for client review of framing etc but nowhere near as sharp as running even a 1080p feed directly into the monitor.

Sorry, no idea as I’ve never tried anything like that.

It’s the Jinbei M1 lightstand, so just google the specs of that if you are interested :)
