    Hi, I'm searching online this answer but can't seem to find anywhere. Just got a Scarlet X, it came without the top fan (it does have the front fan). Does that mean I'll fry the camera? Can it tolerate use without the top fan? (moderate use, about 5-6 hours on per day) PS: I think I just asked the same question on an older video :)

    I’m in the same boat as you man. All these negatives I even bought the cooling fan which helped but did not 100% prevent overheating on a 4 hour shoot. I did have a ninja v attached to mine and was recording to the Fuji and ninja same time so that could definitely have made the camera overheat. As far as AF man I gave up on that but I need it so I don’t know what to do. I’m thinking about waiting for a new fx3ii or a s1hii if they release it within this year.

    In a sentence, I don’t think giving a bunch of free footage to venues easily equates to ~4 weddings booked. Wouldn’t want a noob to hear this and think this is a reality. There’s a lot more involved to unlock ops like this.

    • @epochfilmandphoto
      @epochfilmandphoto 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Will Smith once said, "There's a certain delusional quality that all successful people have to have." So, I'm gonna have to disagree with you. I get where you're coming from, but it's true that booking weddings isn't just about giving away free footage to venues. It takes a lot more, including building relationships, honing your skills, and consistent marketing efforts. Free footage can open doors, but it's the whole package that really gets you booked. Honestly, being somewhat delusional and seeing every opportunity as a potential game-changer has been a key part of my success.
