    Cool review on this Kondo Blue cage, Dustin. Have you ever used the Titla Cage for the S1H? That's the one I use - it's pretty solid and fits nicely in the hands.

    Hi Dustin
    The Kondor blue looks like a beast with the S1H
    my question is how is it compared to gimbal, how stable is it while walking? running and gunning?

    Nice! I was looking at kondor blue for my S1 but ended up getting the smallrig because they had a cage that would let me use my battery grip as well 👌

      I actually discovered it from Nates Film Tutorials. But I feel like I remember us talking about it in a live stream or something! Maybe it was before that? I don't engender😂 either way it's a great cage. Thank you for watching!

    Always glad to watch your reviews. The Kondor is really nice with that slide in mecanism. Do I see a PL mount adapter with that heavy lens? If yes, which one is it? Thinking of buying the Irix Cine lenses line up with PL mount for my S1H.

    • @DustinArmstrongPro
      @DustinArmstrongPro  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for watching! Yeah it's super slick definitely is my favorite thing about the cage. You do see one :D Video coming eventually, I just don't really know how to make an informative video about a mount 😂The one I have is the Sigma MC-31. My short thoughts on it, it's pricey, but very very solid mount. No wiggle at all between the PL mount or L mount part of it. I've really enjoyed it so far. I think I have an idea for the video that just came to my head while I was typing this. Stay tuned!

      @@DustinArmstrongPro Wow! 800 Euros! That must one hell of an adapter! Made out of adamantium. Forged by Thor the allmighty himself and engraved by his buddy Wolverine. Definitely worth a review. I need to get one! Jokes aside: thats the kind of money we have to spend when we enter the realm of pro gear. I'll get over it.
      Blue Kondor have no resellers in Europe. Yet. I emailed them and they told me that they are working on it :)

    Hey Dustin is the Kondor Blue top handle tall enough that the Panasonic DMW-XLR1 XLR can fit under? I have Smallrig cage with helmet kit that protects the Panasonic DMW-XLR. The helmet kit is a hassle because when not using the audio module you have to unscrew it to take it off.

    • @DustinArmstrongPro
      @DustinArmstrongPro  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmmmm that's a good question. I'd probably have to put it on to know🤔 I don't own one though. If I run into somebody that has one I'll try testing it for you👍

      @@DustinArmstrongPro I can make it easy for you. The top of the audio module to the top of EVF measured from where it says Panasonic is 2.5 inches. Also, did you get a chance to test if the Sigma 24-70 was parfocal?

    Maybe not related, but what drone do you use? Thinking of the Mavic Air 2 but worried I won’t be able to match the 8 bit codec to my S1H. Any thoughts? The Mavic Pro 2 is just so much more money haha.

    • @DustinArmstrongPro
      @DustinArmstrongPro  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I still have the mavic pro. I actually would probably go with the mavic air 2 if I upgraded. I don't use drones super often so if I can just get close to my footage I just call it good and move on

    • @fatheadmediapro
      @fatheadmediapro 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dustin Armstrong thanks man. I’ll probably use it for mostly real estate gigs so that’s my thinking as well. Any reason why you’d choose the Mavic air 2 over the Pro? Frame rates?

      @@fatheadmediapro In that case yeah you'll be using it more than me haha. Frame rates and the size of the drone too. My mavic is small and even still I feel like it's a pain to carry with me when I need it. So a smaller drone would be nice for me
