Hey there! Thanks for the sub. The type of footage that you're working doesn't really affect which method you would use, I just like Method 2 because it also saves all those stills and groupings on the Color page. If you're not doing a lot of Color then media managing by Timeline should work fine for you. That's the method I used for a while until I tried out the other way

No need to apologize

Thanks! I hope to see more from them too!

yes indeed

Thanks!

Check out the full video on the plate over on my channel 👍🏾

Sorry to hear so much got added in shipping 🙁

Sigma

I was speaking more to the feeling I get when I do those things rather than the things themselves, if that makes sense.

Then you already know! Hard NOT to love it 😍

It really does. Glad to hear to can feel the love through the video 🥰

Thanks! I’m glad it comes through 😊

I’ll never stop loving this little beauty. I honestly can’t believe the community is still going so strong after 5 years!

Thanks so much! Really glad you enjoyed it

Thanks! I can’t wait until I can do exactly that with my little girl 🥰

Awesome! Would love to hear more about your rig.

@DylColeman I can upload a video on my channel in the coming weeks. I could tag you in the description so you can see it. I primarily make use of the SanDisk Pro-Blade and Kondor Blue Pro-Blade Handle. The rig isn't totally complete. I'm still trying to find the right monitor, and I'm also planning on getting the new Lumix 28-200mm Zoom lens.

Hey there! I do use an ND filter. I use this one from K&F concept - amzn.to/3A4kDFO. I'm also a fan of the Tilta mini matte box, but to try keep this everyday rig small I just use a lens hood whenever possible

@@DylColeman Thanks! I will check that one out. One more question about the Niceyrig handle: You called it a rubber material, but the product site says it's leather. Can you confirm weather it's genuine leather or faux leather/rubber?

@@saschathiede you’re correct, it’s leather. My mistake.

The struggle is real! My journey has been very similar and I honestly gave up hope until 52 weeks reached out to me. Really glad they did, cause their product is awesome. Let me know how it works out for you if you end up getting one

You're very welcome! I prefer to call it "esoteric" instead of "unpopular". Sounds fancier 🤣

Never too late to join the fp family 😉

Not sure. I wasn't doing any super long takes when I tested it out in England, but I was able to roll for over a minute without issue. Maybe even a couple at the longest. Will have to do a longer test 🤔

I did some thorough testing on this, although not with that enclosure and drive in particular. The gist is that recording in 4K 12bit 29.97 FPS does not seem to be an issue with most drives and enclosures. For >15 minutes it didn't cause me any problems, I probably tested even for much longer, but I haven't documented that. The real challenge is FHD 12 bit 100 FPS, as that fails on most drives and enclosures just after seconds, but I was able to make even that work for more than 15 minutes. Generally, drives with lower power consumption or gen 3 drives seem to perform much better on this, but the enclosure plays also a huge role. Technically, there should be a record limit around 70 minutes, if I'm not mistaken, but I've made recordings much longer than that, but only in 10 bit, to save drive space. Hope that helps! Let me know if you need any additional data. :)

@@saschathiede very grateful for the answer! yes, your knowledge would be very useful to me, is there any way to contact you, for example in a telegram? or whatever is convenient for you

Nice! Hope your enjoy it!

Right?! Such a cool piece of gear

I love to instigate 😏

Yes! Say goodbye to sticky messes! As someone who started with velcro, I can say that is much better option for sure 😂 Thanks for watching!

Is this item shipping to UK as well?

For real! Love this product. Can't wait to see what else they come up with

Nice! Definitely let me know how everything works out for you

⁠@@DylColemaneverything came in. The adapter works great, but it has two problems. It doesn’t have a tripod socket on the bottom, so there is no way to mount it on a regular tripod. It does have a built in arca Swiss mount, but it is mounted sideways, so when I mount the camera on my video head that is arca Swiss compatible, the camera points to the side instead of straight ahead. So basically, I have no way to mount it on my tripod. I guess I have to see if I can get some kind of 90 degree arca Swiss adapter, so I can mount the camera on my tripod so it points straight ahead. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, but I rather have a tripod socket instead of an arca Swiss plate that is pointing the wrong direction. If I was him, I would make the same hard drive housing, but ditch the arca Swiss plate, and put a tripod socket on it. He has the right idea with mounting the hard drive on the bottom, it makes for a nice, low profile setup.

With the 1/4 20 attachment point I imagine you could mount it somewhere on a cage so that you could fix the fp on the gimbal as well, but I haven't tried. Would be an interesting setup for sure

@@DylColeman Thanks for the prompt reply! And yes, it would be a cool setup, but will probably require use a focus puller too. But the bottom plate sure looks like a great solution for handheld work. Thanks for sharing! Hopefully the SSD wouldn’t overheat much.

@@ArunWadhwa yeah, it’s a perfect minimalist solution for everyday walk around shooting for sure. I’m loving it

Thanks! I'm really glad you got some info out of it.

She does that to me almost every day!

You're welcome!

Haha! thank you! 🙏🏾 Glad you dug it 🥰

Good question. I personally do a lot of my pre-production and organization for projects in apps like Milanote, so that's what I use to keep track of other assets not used in the NLE. It may just be a necessary step to gather those assets and save them in the same place you put your media managed assets when the project is finished. What have you done in the past?

​@@DylColeman I'm just copying the extras into a folder along with the media folder. I want it all in one spot for the future, in case I need to resurrect a project and modify it. Unfortunately, Resolve doesn't recognize collateral and will leave it behind when archiving. I've decided to just copy my entire project folder structure up to an archive location with a single click/drag. It includes all media, the output rendering in an 'output' subfolder, my 'extras' subfolder with non-timeline items such as PPTs, PDF, TXTs, etc, and an empty 'project' subfolder. Before moving, I also copy any Fairlight audio clips from its location into the 'media' subfolder and relink them. Then I export the project .drp file to the empty 'project' subfolder. This way, the ENTIRE project is bundled under my top-level project folder. In the future, I can copy/paste the whole folder tree back onto my laptop and just relink the media and start working again.

Appreciate the feedback. I'm always looking for ways to improve the content I make and honestly, very specific criticism like this is quite helpful. I've been working on "getting to the point" in my videos and adding value while still trying to inject some personal insight and storytelling. That being said, thanks for watching.

Interesting. Didn't know that. I've some a few other creators that I respect map the HDR wheels in this way and since I'm not a colorist myself, I've emulated their process. Do you know why the option to map the wheels exists if the HDR tool is always color space aware?

Thanks, brother!

Will definitely be talking all about that SSD solution (the star of the rig) in the next vid.

@@DylColeman Hello, SD card is not anymore the best everyday solution :D

@@SuperMrMental Not if I want to record 12-bit UHD raw video. I just came out with a breakdown of my new favorite everyday carry setup for the fp here 👉🏾th-cam.com/video/GD9VI27kbmI/w-d-xo.html

Thanks!

You’re welcome!
