Thank you

wouldnt you mount it on the lens for wildlife using a gimbal?

I have a Lumix G9 with a wide angle lens. The overall weight is no more than 1KG. I want to use it for High Resolution mode (IBIS trick with a sensor to get 80MP image from native 20MP) when hiking in mountains. Will 204AB (CB) be enough stable when only legs are extended? Is it possible that Carbon version (CB) is more rigid?

They use a white colored thread locker on the base bolt. Put the base of the gimbal in a glass of boiling water for 15 minutes and the bolt comes out really easy. I had previously tried a large breaker bar with a 5.5mm hex bit and I couldn't move it. I tried a 1150 ft/lb impact gun and still nothing. The boiling water does the trick and the bolt comes out easy.

So who IS better ?

i've bought this thing for an instax camera lmao

Great content, man. Thank you for sharing your outlook.

Which one do you recommend for lumix g100?

Do you know if a firmware version has in fact cleared this issue?

You need to blink 😊

When you pull these things apart, do remember the screws are metric and assembled with Loctite which breaks down at 120°. Apply heat from a soldering iron is the usual dodge. You will damage the hex with an imperial wrench, and need a full size long Allen key to get them out. With the exception of the 1/4-20 and the 3/8 Whitworth, camera kit is metric. What on earth is farenheight? White lithium grease is useless, its sole purpose is waterproofing. You want an automotive bearing grease, practically any of them will do, a wheel hub type probably. Grease is oil plus soap, white grease is mostly the soap, not enough lubricant.

Appreciated this video and the tips for finding Snowies. Just started with them and you answered questions I didn’t know I had. Also thanks for the teleconverter details/comparison. Very Helpful!!

I dealt with this issue recently. I just removed my memory cards and reinserted it and it worked - no turn on or turn off delay. But it'll be good to just have some back ups just in case.

The stock market is still a fantastic tool for building wealth, however, so it's wise to consider investing even if you don't have much money to spare.

I have an R7 and have found that the Lexar 1800x cards take over 10 seconds for the screen to boot from switch on. Instant with Sandisk Extreme Pro less than a second. Thanks for your video.

I prefer the cuff’

from my experience,, the second knob is to set some tension so when you loosen the 'main' knob, the camera will not flop. (i could be wrong) i ordered the same head and am waiting for delivery.

Our local news station told us NOT to point cameras at or take pictures of the snowy owls as it may stress them out and cause environmental damage. Is this true and if so what is it about cameras that stresses out the owls?

The review of the gimbal that never mentioned that the center of the quick release plate is not alighned with the center of the base. (Turning for pana shots will be off center rotation.)

Has anyone ever told you you look like Vincent D'Onofrio

Thanks, David. I'm having that 4-second delay, too. I have two SanDisk Extreme Pro 512 GB cards in it. I shoot raw, and each have about 20,000 images on it. Do you think that could be the problem? Also, my camera is now hesitating shooting at least once per outing. It just doesn't shoot and goes dark, despite my having changed batteries and now using brand new Canon batteries. Thanks for your help, again.

just use blue threadlock not blue gloves lol!

Thanks for this interesting info. I always use Sandisk and my R5 seemed slower to start than my R6, particularly after a lens change. Normally I just used to shut my cameras off, then put the lens cap on. Research online suggested that I needed to put the lens cap on before powering down - since doing that so far they have been appx same time starting up even with different Sandisk cards being used -- strange certainly one to keep an eye on, and perhaps mention to Canon tech support

Good stuff, thanks!

Good Video … I am having a problem when I loosen the bolt where the gimbal attaches to the Tripod. If I tighten the lower knob, I have no rotation … if I loosen the knob, I gain the rotation but the Gimbal wobbles on the Tripod Screw. The more I rotate the Gimbal Counter Clockwise the worse the wobble. Suggestions? Gordon

So I have 2 cards and the fastest writing speed one I have is Lexie and I noticed when I got the r5, it turned on SO slow. After watching this I started using the other and it starts up basically immediately. Thanks for the vid!!!

will this program interface with Darktable? Thanks.

I replaced the grease in both swivels and it works decently now. When both knobs are tight, the cradle is level. If you undo either the paning knob or the swing arm knob, the head sags. However, I found the sagging of the base and the swing arm cancel each other out and the cradle is level again. This is slighty annoying if you don't want to have it either fully locked or fully loose.

Good video, but could be greater if you would slow down your explanations and show your step more clearly.

Thank you David, How did you remove the hex bolt in the bottom? How did you secure the ring at the bottom to allow enough leverage on the bolt. Mine WIL NOT come loose. Aany suggestions will help. thanks.

decent youtuber! thanks!

Hello i think this has two locking knobs to make it easy for Left handed people ( i all so have this ball head )

Thanks for this, very helpful

Super helpful tips, and thanks for the tip about the website, signed up.

Thanks david! Love awesome gear like these straps. More please

Dave, I found your information very helpful. Thank

I only use Scandisk cards and my R6 startups are quick. I just turn it on and bring the camera up to my eye and begin shooting.

Thank you for this video! After trial and error, I noticed that my backup 2nd SD card would slow startup if it had too many JPEGs. I formatted the 2nd card and the camera started up a lot quicker.

I have a problem that when I switch lenses it takes 5 - 8 seconds to turn on but after that I can turn it on and off and it's instant. Have you noticed this problem as well?

love the video thanks man. you talk kind of mechanical though and the audio is not that easy to listen to. Maybe change that. thanks for the video!

How long does the ravpower take to transfer, let's say 64GB of data to an SSD?

Hi David schliepp Is it good in this canon rf 24-105mm f4

great video

That was a very detailed rundown on your trip and I thoroughly enjoyed the photos. Those bears looked beautiful, but I think I’d have been suffering from more camera shake than usual 😀. Thanks Dave

Hi David, I really appreciated your thoughts on the Slide Lite and have just ordered one. I did already own an older Peak Design strap, which seems about the same as the Leash, but as you mentioned, it does cut into my neck. I’m using a Sony A7R IV with a 70-200 or 24-105mm mostly, so the Lite strap seems appropriate. Again, I just wanted to say thanks for your advice. 😃

Good work... 👍... I'm from India 👍

Good and bad video. I bought this ball head couple of weeks ago and really like it during my many uses of it.

Merci beaucoup pour votre excellent vidéo! I think I found a solution in my problem. I wanted to Cotton Carrier Harness with my 200-600mm lens and use-it at the same time my Gimbal. I just ordered a 5" plate for my Gimbal and I will install the Hub in the extremity of the plate and opposite side where the lens Collar is installed. When I will install my lens on my Gimbal, the Hub will not interfered since it will locate outside the Gimbal arca-swiss plate.

Great content. How many photos do you have in that platforms? And how many more photos do you upload every month? Thnx :D

After watching this and other reviews i have just purchased one of these. I've replaced the grease as you described and the improvements are obvious. No problems at all. This Gimble is terrific value for money and is a solid piece of kit. Thank you for the info.
