By far the best resource for pocket 4k...you provide the best info...all the links...could listen to you for hours ...you make those FD lens shine...the LUTS are amazing...you mate are a gun !!!! You keep posting , I'll keep watching...Number 1 on TH-cam...balls to the wall AWESOME !!!
The famous formula F = m*a actually explains why heavier cameras shake less. For the same force applied by the operator's shaky hands, the camera with the highest mass will be the one with the less acceleration.
I have the 6K with the Tilta screen mod. If ever you want the machine for stripped down shooting this is superb. I shoot with a modified strap, no cage, screw on ND filter and a home made screen visor. It goes with me everywhere.
Tilta is offering a mod kit to make the built in screen able to tilt. So that might help if you need to go super light without a monitor. Also, that kit puts a USB-C plug in the empty spot where the screen used to be, and you can plug an NVMe drive in there for even more portability.
Imho ie invest in a good small 5" monitor. Its brighter so no need for sunhood in daylight and less prone to damage opposed to the tilta mod. The P4K screen is not that bright in daylight.
I prefer the monitor mounted without the bracket it just adds vertical height for no reason when you can simply add the monitor to the end of the handle with a smallrig monitor mount, makes it smaller.
I'm hoping BM will release the battery grip soon. I think the grip is a great way of extending shooting times. I don't mind using different batteries. But, aside from that, I use v-mount batteries. As far as stability goes, I already have the Pana-Leica 12-60mm f2.9 lens with IS from my GH5 days. So, that helps a lot. And yes, making the camera heavier is a great way to help with stabilization as well. I don't mind handheld if its relatively smooth. I don't like floaty (like you're in a boat), or jittery handheld shots.
I have the Smallrig quick release half cage so I can remove the camera entirely when I want to go incognito. When I do that, I use a stabilised lens (Leica 12-60). The rest of the time I use Meike Cine lenses with no stabilisation and it's fine - gets trickier with the longer lenses - 50mmm is doable hand held unstabilised, 80 isn't really
- How do you get your footage so stable while you shoot handle? How can you live with the fact your sensor is not stabilised? - I'M THE CAMERA OPERATOR, PEOPLE PAY ME TO CAPTURE GREAT AND STABLE FOOTAGE :D I love that part haha :D
How can you live? I mean we survived 120+ years without a stabilized sensor, I guess you just need to learn how to operate a proper cinema camera. That’s about it. Keep in mind, professional cameras don’t have stabilized sensor.
Hi. You are a God sent. I've been wracking my brain as to how to create a run & gun rig and BAM! here you are with the answer via a well put together presentation. My question though; at 4:22 in the video what is that piece of accessory that the Power Junkie Adapter is connected to?
loved this... I hate seeing the reviews complaining about autofocus or ibis.. I have never used autofocus to shoot video.. it just doesn't look natural
Great video! I recently sold my Nikon and got the BMPCC4K, partly thanks to you, as I realized filmmaking is what I want to be focusing on. I’ve been putting together a rig for it for an upcoming trip to Japan. Being new to cinema cameras, there were lots to learn, but I feel like what you said in this video validated a lot of my choices for the rig. Maybe I’ll make a video about how I went about it when I get back. Right now, my main worry is what lens to bring. I’ve been eyeing the Sigma 18-35 (original choice, I know), but it’s a bit on the large and heavy side. An alternative would be something native like the Olympus 12-40 2.8 Pro. I think I’d generally prefer a single zoom lens and I’m not that worried about DoF for this trip...
I recently purchased BMPCC 6K. I was trying to figure out to rig out properly. I really appreciate you putting together this video. It was informative! Thank you!
Thanks for the video! Looking for more information about the following, as I didn't find it on the list you included below the video (though perhaps I'm just not looking hard enough!): Which batteries go on the Blindspot Power Junkie? And which cable connects the power junkie to the dummy battery in the camera? Thank you!
Hello, Matteo. Do you use an actual fd to mft speedbooster, or just an fd to mft adapter? I am looking to purchase a metabones fd to mft speedbooster, bt cannot find one. Any recommendations? Thanks for the videos, they are always awesome and very helpful.
Matteo .. I have SO MUCH RESPECT for you! Your comments about learning to shoot handheld speak volumes to your cinematic integrity. Only REAL cinematographers can shoot on anything and even make SD footage look good. I tell these kids this all of the time. This is the difference between a professional and a professional amateur. I would hire you on the spot, just for that comment. Keep shooting my brother ... Onward and Upward ....
How are you attaching the Blindspot Power Junkie to your cage? Thanks for making this video. I am mostly following your setup, though I'm completely new to rig building and don't know how I'd attach that plate. I think I need something like a little L bracket.
Thanks for the setup vid Matteo! Wanted to ask you about your thoughts on the 6k vs 4k bmpcc. Which one would you recommend and why? Your thoughts would help me choose one, thanks. Continue making videos. Love your visual style!
Hi Matteo!great video (sono italiano come te) i followed you such a short time but your contents are very helpfully especially now that i choose to buy the Bmpc6k, my question Is, some people said "this Is not agood camera for run and gun" but i tried a bit and i don t have kind of problem, what your opinion abut that, and how your prepare your camera (codec ecc) for 2,3,4 days of shooting? Which Is the best setting in terms of quality/space in hdd for more than One day of shooting? Thanks for your video!

Hi Matteo great video. When you listed your rig kit , you did not mention IR Cut filter with you tiffen variable ND. There have been a few youtuber talking about light pollution when using ND with the bmpcc4k. Is it a problem that you have experienced . Any advices is appreciated.
@@matteobertoli thank you. I guess that means I need to get an I R cut filter. I have a tiffen variable ND but I dont think it's an IrND. Thanks for confirming. 🙂

Thanks for the video man! I’ve been using a big setup on it lately and it’s super stable but want to use something more compact for hiking with and run/gun elopements. Can you get similar stable shots on this smaller setup like the bigger rig? Enough weight on it? Thank you! Love your videos and the buttery collection! 🔥
Can someone help me? I have the Blind Spot battery plate for my BMPCC4k. I notice when I have a LP6 batt inside of my camera, while I have my camera power through the Blind Spot, the camera shuts off even though i'm 100% on my Blind Spot. It turns out my LP6 batt is running low. I thought I was getting power from my Blind Spot? I have a DC power cable coming from my Blind Spot going in a female 2-pin into the BMPCC4k.
damn, you've just explained every single complain about this camera! btw, how are you dealing with dummy battery cable, because bmpcc 4k doesn't have a special hole for cable management?
Ciao bel video grazie... seguendo i tuoi consigli sto acquistando ottiche fd.... ti ho fatto una domanda nel video che hai realizzato per le ottiche. Oggi ho visto che monto il metabons come adattatore.... farò un test assurdo...forse... in poche parole posseggo uno speed booster XL e l'idea e di unirlo all fodiox fd adapter... non so' se funzionerà. Oggi ho preso il 70-210 f4 ed canon grazie a te
Hi Matteo, thanks for the interesting content you post! I wanted to ask you, given your experience, if you think it is possible to shoot Daniel Schiffer-style movie brolls so to speak, with the 6k freehand, or for that kind of very rapid camera movements, it's better to choose another type of mirrorless, Thanks and Greetings from Italy
Matteo Bertoli Visuals è un videomaker ha un canale youtube gira broll molto interessanti da 30secondi sul cibo! se hai tempo dacci un occhio, sono di impatto visivo con molto sound design speed ramp e montaggio in stile epico!
Gravity is not the only reason for less or more camera shake....more the weight mounted on camera lesser the body shake...body jerks are so minimal ...that it doesnt affct when the body is heavy..lighter the camera more the jerks
Will you be purchasing the battery grip when it’s available. If it could power my monitor at the sane time with the camera i would snatch it up quickly but i doesn’t so im not sure. What do you think about it?
Okay I shoot with a GH5, but this is video helpful and still applicable to that in many run n gun situations if using non native primes for instance. I have been contemplating a matte box (not for run n gun) but I am unsure of whether it will actually be needed apart from a convenient way to hold filters? Do you think they help with IQ at all or do they just make the camera look more pro?
Steve Tucker matte box doesn’t make your camera look more professional, matte box is ESSENTIAL so you can use good filters and yes, the image quality is gonna be drastically better. If you put side by side something shot with a variable ND and nisi irnd in the matte box you are not gonna shoot with the variable anymore. It’s literally day and night.
@@matteobertoli Okay thanks for your reply, the "professional" comment was a little tongue in cheek because I have seen a few TH-camrs comment that that is all a matte box is good for. Having never used one I was interested in your opinion on the value of them and as I consider whether to invest in one and a set of filters. I have never used a variable only standard screw in ND's. A comparison test between a rig with matte box and 4x5.65 and no matte box and a screw in ND would be good, I'll see if I can find one anywhere.
Thanks for sharing your run & gun setup! I have a quick question. How do you stack your pro black mist and the variable ND together? Not sure if they screw in together or if you used some accessory.
@@matteobertoli Matteo, did you use any ir filter on Bmpcc4k? When you maxim your vnd the ir is a problem?. I just a little worry of the image Quality if i stack a blackpromist+irfilter+vnd.
thanks for this Matteo, been looking for a travel rig. What wide zoom lens do you think is best for travel? I have that 70-210 but have been looking for a wider option. Also, do you ever throw a strap on the super bare bones setup?
This was something I was definitely curious about from your POV, thanks for sharing! What tripod legs/head combo were you using around 0:42 on that slider?
Lovely tips video. Of course, shooting wide makes camera shake less apparent. Thing is, sometimes the job requires a longer lens. Try that hand-held with a massive rig. I give it 3-minutes before gyro stabilization is viewed in a different light entirely. Anyway, thank you for taking time to share details of your rig setup. You may have produced the single best video on TH-cam regarding setting up a BMPCC for run-and-gun work which I've seen. Well done! Last thing, what's your opinion of what you'd want to record something with fast action like this - vimeo.com/457151049 - where the distance to the subject is significantly greater and is moving widly? This used an iPhone, which proves good light makes up for small sensors. Anyway, I'm specifically wondering about using a Lumix G X Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 II ASPH. POWER O.I.S. lens (like a 24-70) expressly because of the gyroscopic assist in stabilizing to help me. Thoughts, please?
Hey love this video, I have a question about the slow motion. Why does my camera slo down the footage but keep the same audio. is there a way that i can just make the audio slow down with the video?
I’m also curious about this one if you get the chance to reply. I know your full rig consists of NiSi irnd’s but it seems like you’re just running with a Hoya Vari and the black pro mist and no ir cut, is that correct? Has this given you issues with color casts from the Hoya?
Matteo Bertoli Visuals sorry for not being specific. Learning how to film. I just subscribed about a few weeks ago and I’m very impressed with your visuals. Just wondering if you went to school for film to help you get this good?
Awesome rig, Matteo!! I love your content. Straight to the point, no filler. Keep it up! Off-topic question (I'm posting here because I didn't get to your video last week): In the description of this (th-cam.com/video/BAeWPVjM7uY/w-d-xo.html) video, you mentioned how you thought ISO 640 was the sweet spot between noise/color shift and dynamic range. Then, in last week's false color video, you mentioned how you only shoot at 400. Why is that? Is it a noise issue? At 640 you get almost 3/4 of a stop more than 400. That could be the difference between a bright highlight, and a clipped highlight... Just curious. Anyway, love your stuff!! Thanks.
Janana Beats thanks man! Yeah 640 is great and I would use it in extreme dynamic range scenarios, but it’s still a bit too noisy for regular stuff, at least for me!

@@kolecava I agree. I was only suggesting the tilta mod in the case that you wanted to go super light without a monitor.
People need to remember that the BMPCC is NOT a vlogger's camera. It's a CINEMA camera for FILMMAKERS.
I prefer the monitor mounted without the bracket it just adds vertical height for no reason when you can simply add the monitor to the end of the handle with a smallrig monitor mount, makes it smaller.
Ferhan Khan Photography I just love that arm and how you can tilt it ;)
Ferhan Khan Photography also, check your email please ;)
This is what I've been looking for. I find that I'm more likely to go out and shoot if I can keep it small, light and unnoticable.
Thanks for the video Matteo! The biggest take away for me was the fact that you can actually screw an ND filter on top of Pro Mist. That's great!
I'm hoping BM will release the battery grip soon. I think the grip is a great way of extending shooting times. I don't mind using different batteries. But, aside from that, I use v-mount batteries.

Great Stuff - side question - what is your Audio Rig Set up? Boom Mic? Sennheiser/ RODE do you use a recorder etc
In hindsight do you think the FD speedbooster purchase was worth the $450 pricetag? considering the cost of the FD lenses and other options available.

Hey, How did you shoot water shoots ?
Is the Black Pro mist filter really necessary for the bmcc4k?
I found what WB on BMPCC4k is not correct. If i use 5500K light - in camera in need set around 4900K to have correct WB. Do you have yhe same problem?
Such a clean set up! I was wondering how were able to attach the variable ND on the black pro mist. What sizes did you use?
Alvin Ho they screw on each other, I believe those are 72mm
what about the microphone? can we put on this rig

By the way, you made a very nice lut for the p4k ;)
Lovely tips video. Of course, shooting wide makes camera shake less apparent. Thing is, sometimes the job requires a longer lens. Try that hand-held with a massive rig. I give it 3-minutes before gyro stabilization is viewed in a different light entirely. Anyway, thank you for taking time to share details of your rig setup. You may have produced the single best video on TH-cam regarding setting up a BMPCC for run-and-gun work which I've seen. Well done! Last thing, what's your opinion of what you'd want to record something with fast action like this - vimeo.com/457151049 - where the distance to the subject is significantly greater and is moving widly? This used an iPhone, which proves good light makes up for small sensors. Anyway, I'm specifically wondering about using a Lumix G X Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 II ASPH. POWER O.I.S. lens (like a 24-70) expressly because of the gyroscopic assist in stabilizing to help me. Thoughts, please?
What battery are you using on the power junkie?
Sony npf
Matteo Bertoli Visuals thank you thank you!
Hey Matteo, how are you finding this camera in comparison to the GH5s you had?
Official TimCruz way better ;)
@@matteobertoli thanks. I was going to switch from GH5 >GH5s. But I keep hearing and seeing good things about thr bmpcc4k :)
Hey love this video, I have a question about the slow motion. Why does my camera slo down the footage but keep the same audio. is there a way that i can just make the audio slow down with the video?
Nathan Casares it slows down the footage cause your project frame rate is 24p. If you keep it 60p you are gonna see the sound perfectly synced
It’s there an option to see all the Camera info (iris, iso, wb) on the Small HD monitor?
Cali Cuesy yep
Usi un filtro ir/uv cut con questo setup?
Con questo no, ma lo uso molto raramente. Sempre nisi irnd per risultati ottimali
Matteo Bertoli Visuals non hai problemi sui neri che tendono al Magenta?
Brazilian ?
Do you use IR Cut Filter on your BMPCC4K?
I’m also curious about this one if you get the chance to reply. I know your full rig consists of NiSi irnd’s but it seems like you’re just running with a Hoya Vari and the black pro mist and no ir cut, is that correct? Has this given you issues with color casts from the Hoya?
Did you go to school to learn this stuff?
Ronnie G what stuff?
Matteo Bertoli Visuals sorry for not being specific. Learning how to film. I just subscribed about a few weeks ago and I’m very impressed with your visuals. Just wondering if you went to school for film to help you get this good?
Ronnie G oh sorry ahah! Yeah went to film school in Italy!
Matteo Bertoli Visuals nice! I want to go to film school myself. You’re just motivation for me to go.
Awesome rig, Matteo!! I love your content. Straight to the point, no filler. Keep it up!
Off-topic question (I'm posting here because I didn't get to your video last week):
In the description of this (th-cam.com/video/BAeWPVjM7uY/w-d-xo.html) video, you mentioned how you thought ISO 640 was the sweet spot between noise/color shift and dynamic range. Then, in last week's false color video, you mentioned how you only shoot at 400. Why is that? Is it a noise issue? At 640 you get almost 3/4 of a stop more than 400. That could be the difference between a bright highlight, and a clipped highlight... Just curious.
Anyway, love your stuff!!
Thanks.
Janana Beats thanks man! Yeah 640 is great and I would use it in extreme dynamic range scenarios, but it’s still a bit too noisy for regular stuff, at least for me!
@@matteobertoli Yeah I totally agree! 400 is much easier to push in the shadows.
cool
Matteo mi mancano i tuoi video e le tue live di vivere in america 😢😭
I straight up just do camera and lens for travel stuff haha. I wiSh tHiS cAmERa hAd IBIS 🤪😂
The optically stabilized lenses like the Panasonic 12-35 f2.8 work very well for handheld shots.
2.8 on a 4/3 sensor is like f5.6 on a super35 and it's incredibly slow. Gonna be hard to get some nice shallow dof
@@matteobertoli I use the Canon 35mm f2 with IS I get a 1.3 with the speedbooster. And I use the 42.5 Panasonic f1.2 IS both are great lenses.

Lol, doesn't look very run and gun
Guy With Camera if you are used to Arri Alexa yes, it kinda does ;)
Matteo Bertoli Visuals I wish I was that pro haha, great video
