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?
I do believe you got the Kondor Blue Cage because of me :) Remember I mentioned it earlier, its the best cage by far for the S1H! ::) Great video Justin!
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!
Yeah Nate mentioned it, but yeah we talked about it. I'm happy for you dude you got the best camera cage on market for the S1H! Your welcome dude, keep up these great videos!
Can you post the link for the cage for the Sony a73? Also how can I mount a battery pack? Do you have a recommended one? I searched but can't find the Sony cage or the top handle with the record. Thanks!
Really cool cage I have ever seen for mirrorless camera... I do watch all your videos and loved the intro So let's get started so keep your arms and legs inside the chair sitback and relax and enjoy the video. 😂😂
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.
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.
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?
these are common manfrotto plates correct? So If I stay in that ecosystem I can slide the Kondor cage or baseplate straight onto my Manfrotto Tripod, correct?
@@DustinArmstrongPro Excellent, thx! And can you also slide out the camera with the Manfrotto Baseplate straight onto the 502? Or is an Arca Swiss connected between camera and cage?
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.
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
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
Great question. I wouldn't say there is a "best" option. More the question to ask is what kind of look do you want for your Netflix film? Cause they all do different things and give different looks
Stoked your loving the gear! Cool comprehensive vid! Thanks for the shoutout!
No thank you for making a cage that is well thought out and makes my life easier!🔥
Agreed. Best cage on the market!
Just curious, Are you going to do a review of the Panasonic S5? Interested to know your thoughts.
@@terrygriffin5201 Maybe. It'll be a minute before I am able to
Great review, Dustin. Well explained. As a SmallRig-boy, I will definetely consider the Kondor for my S1H now!
Thanks! It definitely should be considered!
Same with me! I fell in love withe KB right away!

I returned the tilta to buy this one
@@DustinArmstrongPro Cool. I may look into this one in the future. Thanks again for the review.
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?
now I relaized I'm actully more into the Ultimate version it looks very stable but I see you didn't bought it
Are you gonna talk about new Canon?
I talked about it a little in my livestream I'm going to post soon, but more than likely won't be doing a video on it. I don't have access to one.
Great video! Definitely looking into this cage!
Thank you🙏 As well you should!
Dustin how does the Sun shade and filter holder of Condor blue compared to the smalle rig
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 👌
Totally makes sense to go that route if you use a battery grip
I do believe you got the Kondor Blue Cage because of me :) Remember I mentioned it earlier, its the best cage by far for the S1H! ::) Great video Justin!

Right? I'm a big fan😁
Haha I'm glad you like it! I gotta make myself memorable some way and a catchy saying is a good way😁

Does this cage work on the Sony a7iii?
This one is specifically for the S1H but kondor blue may have one that you can use for the A7III
Does this cage work with the sony a7iii?
If you buy the version for the A7III yes
@@DustinArmstrongPro Can you post the link for it? I searched but can't find the Sony cage or the top handle with the record. Thanks!
Bro which is the best lens to use with Panasonic S1H..for Netflix..
Great question. I wouldn't say there is a "best" option. More the question to ask is what kind of look do you want for your Netflix film? Cause they all do different things and give different looks
@@DustinArmstrongPro can u refer me any movies to watch which is made by Panasonic S1H
