I've been waiting for this video! Been doing photography for years and recently got into videography for weddings. Definitely going to be doing a mentorship session with you for DaVinci, as well as how to run my business better. Thanks for all you do, brother!
Thanks for the video Justin! Last week I decided to roll a 47” case around a wedding. I returned that bad boy. I now have more appreciation for my multiple, smaller Nanuk and Pelican roller cases.
Oh yea. I don’t roll around with this during the wedding. Usually I set up shop wherever the reception will be and use peak design slings to hold essentials like a lens, mics, straps etc.
So so good!!!! Organization is key when you gotta be 100 places at once for weddings. Also waiting for that gimbal breakdown I’m about to get a 4K to pair with my 6K and need that great gimbal breakdown haha
Great video! I like your rationale for your choices based on your workflow, and as you stated as a Black Magic shooter. You organize your thoughts as well as your equipment! Much appreciated and every time you said something was trash, I could not stop laughing. Lol Thanks for sharing!
Great video man. Love having a lid organizer on my 1510, absolute game changer. I’m actually curious about what WASNT in this case. Do you have a Lighting case that carries all your Godox lights, reflectors, batteries and light stands? What about an audio case for audio cables, lav mics, XLR recorders, etc. Would love to see videos breaking those down too!
Ironically I recorded an “audio bag” video the same day I made this. Decided to wait since I had updated more things. I’ll make it again though and post. 🙌🏾
You've sold me on the Tamron 70-200. I use the Tamron 24-70 for video and it's a beast. I think I might also invest in their 85mm. The stabilization on them is phenomenal.
Dope video, will definitely be waiting for that gimbal camera video. I have a 4K and a crane 3 so still trying to figure out what are some good ways to use them together that work for me.
Bro the level of production and quality in ur videos is insane….🫶amazing job homie!! I love hearing about all the gear u have and why you use it not just know that you have it you know ? 🤝🤝
It was sort of accidental lol. I got my Ursa mini for corporate work. Then covid happened and I needed an extra camera at a wedding I was filming. Took the Ursa and was blown away with its performance. That’s what led to me switching entirely to the pocket 6K
Sadly I sold them. I still have the irix 30mm but I needed something more practical for how I film weddings. The fixed focal lengths slowed me down a great deal and lack of ibis in the cameras made holding 20 minute takes brutal lol.
Check out the nanlite 6c-2 and the 15c and the litolight 5-c 10x more powerful then mc. I think you will enjoy them and they are app controlled by nanlink. Perfect for your wedding lighting.
As a former micro four thirds user, that 12-100 is interesting. That’s equivalent to 24-200. With a f4 aperture on micro four thirds, that’s equivalent to f8 full frame in terms of depth of field. As wedding videographers, people make a big deal out of bokeh. I’m curious about your feelings on shooting with a deeper depth of field rather than shallow, at least with the 12-100.
I can’t wait to talk about that in the gimbal video. In short, I love it. When filming at 100mm you have enough depth when you use frame blocking. It looks amazing in my opinion. I wouldn’t use it as my main camera but for gimbal work it’s phenomenal especially because I have to manually pull focus.
Of course. If you want a great out of the box camera I would say the Sony ZV1. It’s a vlog camera but doesn’t require much to get going. I used it as the top down angle in this video.
You can literally toss this case across the room. Your gear is safe as long as you pack it well. I fly with smaller pelicans to take my cameras and lenses on as carry ons though.
@@JustinPorterMedia nice! I need to invest in a small one that I can roll around to shoots. Thanks for the reply! Great video! Love the multiple angles.
@@JustinPorterMedia nice! I might have to look into those small aperture lights too. Especially for run and gun. I’m using these neewer LED lights but they’re low wattage.
I only have the irix 30mm still. Sadly, I needed a more versatile lens and had to sell those for 24-70 zooms. It’s a much bette combination for what we do.
Amazing video sir! You inspire me. I currently use a pocket 4k and I’m starting to bring it to weddings more. Do you recommend upgrading to the 6k or the 6k pro? Thank you!
Hey. Thanks so much for watching. I’d definitely say a 6K would be ideal. My honest opinion, I hate mft lenses because of low light and depth issues. For a gimbal setup, the pocket 4k is phenomenal. For a main A Camera, I don’t think it’s worth it.
@@JirehTorres Ofcourse. If you can get the pro, definitely go that route. The built in NDs is solely the reason to get it. I personally can’t film without the NDs haha. Having them built in is so convenient.
I was watching your How to Travel with Cases video and was curious how does or does this camera case factor into that. Do you use this case for more local travel and then take things out and distribute it into the 1510's when flying?
Late but awesome video! Thank you for the breakdown. One question/opinion from you. Since I full switch to Davinci Resolve and started to use more black magic gear like the speed editor. I was thinking of getting the Pocket 6k pro. I fully understand the pros & cons and I am still considering it. So my question is show i get it or wait to see if they come out with new model since it did come out in Feb. 2021?
Thanks so much! Better late than never haha. So it really depends how badly you need it. If your current camera and workflow is fine then I’d hold off. If you’re in big need of a camera upgrade then I’d say get the 6K pro. It’s easily worth it still today even if they dropped a new lineup.
Hey! Yes it should be showing your time. To be sure, right above the calendar it will show the timezone. You can click that to ensure your location is accurate. Thanks so much for the support 🙌🏾
Pelican also makes trekpak for some of their other cases like the 1510 Air which is the largest one you can get and use as a carry on 😎
I've been waiting for this video! Been doing photography for years and recently got into videography for weddings. Definitely going to be doing a mentorship session with you for DaVinci, as well as how to run my business better. Thanks for all you do, brother!
Dope!! Welcome to the video side haha. I’m ready when you are. Thank you for the support 🙌🏾

It really is. Love the system. Definitely going to make that pocket 4k video. It’s the best solution in my opinion. 🙌🏾

You're super chill. It's a joy to watch your videos man.

The pocket cameras are beasts! Great work!
Yeahhhh! Always excited to see your videos. Love what you do bro.
I’m also excited to see part 15 of this video haha!
Hahaha part 15, the light case 😂💀
Thanks for the support as always!
@@JustinPorterMedia yessir!
The 4k and that lens is an amazing combo. I used it before I went Sony.
It really is. Such a powerful combination. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Great video homie! Appreciate the breakdown! Can’t wait to see the gimbal cam vid!!
Thanks for watching bro. Yea the gimbal setup is the one. 🔥🔥🔥
Mannnn you always incourging me to do things and here is another ☝🏾. I have to do a video like this now
Do it!! Hop on the train now lol. I personally love watching these type of videos.
You've sold me on the Tamron 70-200. I use the Tamron 24-70 for video and it's a beast. I think I might also invest in their 85mm. The stabilization on them is phenomenal.
I believe it. I should of out b roll of thag 70-200. Best stabilization I’ve seen in a zoom lens for sure.
Wow this gear! I cant wait to see gimbal setup video!
I’m planning to make that very soon. Just need some more b roll examples with it haha. Thanks for watching.
When your passion becomes your profession
Dope video, will definitely be waiting for that gimbal camera video. I have a 4K and a crane 3 so still trying to figure out what are some good ways to use them together that work for me.
Oh I can’t wait to make it. Especially because I feel like the reasons I love it don’t get talked about nearly as much lol.
Love the organization! Can't beat big cases!!!
👏🏾🔥 Thanks so much. Nothing is better than an organized system lol
Bro the level of production and quality in ur videos is insane….🫶amazing job homie!! I love hearing about all the gear u have and why you use it not just know that you have it you know ? 🤝🤝
Yooo! Thanks so much man for real. Definitely had alot of fun making this. Felt good making a set and putting up lights haha.
Justin! Always enjoy your content brotha! Keep it up. (even though I'm liking Nanuk over Pelican lol)
Aha actually I love nanuk cases too. I have one but I haven’t found one as big as this with the divider system similar to trekpak.
As always, great content. Thanks for sharing.
My boy! Thanks for the support 🔥🔥
@@JustinPorterMedia It's all good
video starts..".let me just gon' and get that like out the way" since I already know its gonna be good!
Haha let’s go!! 😂😂😂 appreciate the support.
I’ll buy the case just to have the arm like you 😤
Good video. Quick question.... As a wedding filmmaker, why did you decide to invest in pocket cameras over canon / sony?
It was sort of accidental lol. I got my Ursa mini for corporate work. Then covid happened and I needed an extra camera at a wedding I was filming. Took the Ursa and was blown away with its performance. That’s what led to me switching entirely to the pocket 6K
Great video as always, but WAIT!..What happened the Irrix lenses from your earlier videos 🤔?
Sadly I sold them. I still have the irix 30mm but I needed something more practical for how I film weddings. The fixed focal lengths slowed me down a great deal and lack of ibis in the cameras made holding 20 minute takes brutal lol.
Justin you’re the GOAT
Check out the nanlite 6c-2 and the 15c and the litolight 5-c 10x more powerful then mc. I think you will enjoy them and they are app controlled by nanlink. Perfect for your wedding lighting.
I’ve heard about the 15c. Definitely worth looking into though. Thanks for the recommendations.
As a former micro four thirds user, that 12-100 is interesting. That’s equivalent to 24-200. With a f4 aperture on micro four thirds, that’s equivalent to f8 full frame in terms of depth of field.

Great video. Thanks for sharing. My son would like a camera to record his basketball training. What would you suggest?
Of course. If you want a great out of the box camera I would say the Sony ZV1. It’s a vlog camera but doesn’t require much to get going. I used it as the top down angle in this video.
Is that case good for traveling on planes ? I’m assuming so.
You can literally toss this case across the room. Your gear is safe as long as you pack it well. I fly with smaller pelicans to take my cameras and lenses on as carry ons though.
@@JustinPorterMedia nice! I need to invest in a small one that I can roll around to shoots. Thanks for the reply! Great video! Love the multiple angles.
@@Nardvillain of course. The pelican 1510 is the best small one haha. You can also use it as a carry on for flights.
@@JustinPorterMedia nice! I might have to look into those small aperture lights too. Especially for run and gun. I’m using these neewer LED lights but they’re low wattage.
@@Nardvillain yea grab the aputure mc. Neewer is the worst lol.
Very nice! 👍👍
Is trash…!!! 😂🤣😆
Fantastic video Justin..!!
Keep it movin!!
😂😂😂 it is haha. Thanks so much bro. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Great job Justin! I noticed you had used IRIX cine line of lenses in your videos. Do you still use those for the weddings? God bless you bro!
I only have the irix 30mm still. Sadly, I needed a more versatile lens and had to sell those for 24-70 zooms. It’s a much bette combination for what we do.
Do you use the Godox ML60Bi’s to light these types of videos or another light?
Amazing video sir! You inspire me. I currently use a pocket 4k and I’m starting to bring it to weddings more. Do you recommend upgrading to the 6k or the 6k pro? Thank you!

Yes. This is my local case. I’m switching to think tank cases now

Trasssssshhhh lol. Cracks me up every time lol.
😂😂😂😂 I mean it with my whole heart if something is trash 😂
nice video :) I use bmpcc as well :)
Thanks so much! Gotta love those BMPCC’s
last time I watched one of your bts, thought you were rocking some IRIX lenses?
I was. Sold them about 3 weeks ago. Needed a more versatile setup. Trust me, I miss them everyday lol
what do you think of the apache cases? heard anything good about them? Pelican is above what I can afford at the moment..
Hi Justin
If like to book a 1 hour mentirship
I'm for the UK - are the times showing on my browser GMT? So if I pick 5pm - it'll be 5pm my time?
Hey! Yes it should be showing your time. To be sure, right above the calendar it will show the timezone. You can click that to ensure your location is accurate. Thanks so much for the support 🙌🏾
Did you sell your Irix lenses?
I did. I still have the 30mm but I sold the 45 and 15 for the Tamron 24-70s.
I have just one question. How much memory does a wedding take from all cameras?))
We usually end up with 1.5 terabytes per wedding. We film in 24fps and toggle slow mo very selectively.
@@JustinPorterMedia
Do you shoot ProRes LT?
@@anestofvampire I don't. I film in Braw.
what mic do you use?
Shotgun mics I use the Rode Ntg3, audio technica AT 4053 B. Lapel mics I use deity BP-TRX and Sanken Cos11-d
Do you service California?
I do :) only weddings though.
