Did you actually read the description? - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
I love this video. Quality and footage is top notch and I like your editing paste. it's fast, but not "mr beast in your face jump cut" fast and you still get some jokes in there with audio.
Being a Luc Forsyth video enjoyer I like to see that others also talk about the less fancy gear like tripods or a simple cable. Keep it up!
Great vid Ryan and some good suggestions. I have the Sachtler tripod head and it's fantastic. One thing with the carry-on case is the weight: it's 7kgs empty and 7-10kgs is the carry-on weight limit on most airlines.
I whole-heartedly recommend the SmallRig FreeBlazer legs. Been using them with an Ikan GH06 head and love the combo.
Amazing video! In terms of the Condor Blue adapters, I have found a D-TAP to USB-C in/out made by ZITAY to be way better since not only can I regulate current but now every V-lock/Gold Mount Battery can be charged by USB-C. Other than that this was super informative specially for people new into the game
Great video as usual Ryan! The D-Tap to USB-C adapters actually seem like a super useful piece of gear. Going to look into picking up a few. Didn't even know these were a thing 😅
They're so so helpful. Make traveling with v mounts so nice!
I always love your videos and how you go about explaining things. Even the cadence of how you speak. Would you ever be willing to share with us how you store all of your gear at home? What containers you put them in. Kind of like how you show it in the beginning of the video
Thanks man! That monitor looks sweet
Gear I didn't know I needed. Awesome run through of them, Ryan ✌🏼
Thanks for watching Dylan!!
Way cool, amigo. You put the proverbial 'water back into the well ...' as filmmakers like yourself is doing the right thing today and for generations to come. Bravo-!

Luc is my mentor, and his channel is filled with filmmaking nuggets!
Looking forward to dive deeper into my own creative career too
Finally someone that’s loves Nanuk cases.
They even come with a sticker on em’ that say made in Canada 😜 10/10
Preaaachh
Excited to watch this later!
🙏
Love the vid!
The smallrig tripod was something i didnt expect when already seeing the sachtler one.
Glad you liked it Stephan! Thanks!!
That Sachtler tripod is probably the best piece of gear I've ever bought, worth every cent! If you buy the matching fluid head, it comes with a quick release so I can lift off the entire fluid head (with camera attached) and transplant it onto a different tripod, or even a slider within seconds.
Totally agree!!!!
Super solid reqs.
A few of these are in the need category of our rigs, so I appreciate the content.
Glad you like them!!!
Great vid. Well argued points. Your bit on Resolve made me laugh, could've been my words exactly! I changed in 2020 (after 24 years on Premiere) halfway through a project and by day three I was questioning why Premiere was still even considered a credible piece of software!
Your suggestions for tripod and flight case have made it onto my list - great tips °¬)
Never clicked on a video so fast.
Agree
he's fast as f*** boi
Cool story bro
@RyanKao fassst! Sooo fast!!!
Ok pp
I'm finally getting around to upgrading my older "budget" gear and damn does it make my life so much easier. Great recommendations as always! Next up on my list is probably the Portkeys BM7!
It definitely makes a huge for me. Thanks for watching man!!
Aye this was super helpful! I’m planning out some new purchases to upgrade my kit and this was spot on bro 😮💨
Ayy there we go. Thanks for being here Benji
Kondor cable is so sick. Turns all your old batteries into usb c charging modern bois. And pd camera power is the right way to go because of redundant dual power sources.
Yeah man I've got some killer manfrotto tripods from like over 10 years ago easy. But now I'm using my little cheap ones because I'm not using the fluid heads anymore since everything I'm doing is static talking heads. So I'm just run and gun with the most compact things and my DSLRs are so much smaller now getting a big old man frodo fluid head out is just kind of excessive. I have smaller ones too but I don't have any with that nifty latch deal you got going on! It would be cool to have legs like that for my fluid manfrotto heads!
Hey cool video, could you maybe do a video to go with it on what you would get for starter gear if you were starting out as a new filmmaker right now?
For example:
What kind of equipment would you buy with $3000, $4000, $6000 and $10000 respectively?
I saw that smallrig tripod at the front and got heated.. then I saw the flowtech at the end, live and learn; I've been there lol
Looked up the Nanuk, carryon is typically limited to 7kg, the case is 5kg, doesnt leach much room for much of anything for the limits. Some international routes depending on the carry may offer 9kg or 10kg
Thinktank are best for carry on, they look like everyone else's bag and dont attract attention from psychotic security droids .
great video and one i will certinaly put in my playlist and come back to
Awesome thank you!
Awesome !
Thanks!
Probably getting the monitor based on your recommendation! 🙌🏼
Thanks man 🎉
You bet
Flowtech is definetely the best of them all. I got it + used FSB8 ... the best setup ever. I bet I will use it next 20 years. I'm already using it with 3rd camera body ....
Absolutely man, couldn't agree more!! Solid investment 🙌
Great video as always Ryan. Just wanted to know the font you used for your YoutTube banner, and where did you made that?
Thanks Bro! Good Video, Good tips, Good guy 👍🏻
Thanks! Happy to help!
Bro sick video! What was the 5” Portkeys monitor you used to use?👀
Maybe mines an older version but my portkeys BM7 is loud when the internal fan kicks in when shooting in bright sunlight and max nits. Good monitor though. Definitely agree about resolve, been soley using it for the last 5 years
Oh, is that 1:37 a rehoused Canon Rangefinder lens? Can you do a video about it? Would be nice to see it in action.
Cool, the Sachtler Flowtech was my first tripod - and I think it's for life :)
It's truly solid!! Thanks for watching man!!
Not a film maker, thoroughly enjoyed this……. Cheers.
Thanks for this
No, thank you :)
Solid recommendations Ryan! 8:26 killed me dude lmao
Yoo thanks Kyle! Appreciate you bro
I think premiere has improved a lot not sure what changed but I have had less to no crashes in general and it ironically came after they asked creators why everyone is switching to Davinci.
Maybe I am just getting lucky lol.
Hey, amazing vid. What is the purple thing on your lens?
Thank you. It is Mofage PL to Sony E adapter
Small rig or ZGCine v mounts have usb c charging.
Where did you learn so much about color grading? I’m new to your channel. Maybe you have some videos out about it.
Honestly thought lighting would be one of the first. I find that it's probably the thing I'd pick up first - a quality portable lighting equipment.
I feel like I should give Davinci a go but honestly I get the whole adobe suite for free so its super hard for me to make the switch... Is there anything major to it apart from its colour grading abilities?
Yeah excess a lot of money for that monitor I wonder if it works with Raven Eye? And I wonder if they have a smaller one... That would be great for my Ronin S3. Maybe like a 5-in...
did you record your audio 1 word at a time, then put 'em together in post? 😜
I'm waiting for them to get ProRes RAW support then I might try again to switch to DaVinci
Charging the internal battery via USB-C makes my battery hot and I'm always scared it swells, pops or damages something. I've been doing it with external power banks on my x-t3 for years but it's so dodge. So, I prefer the dummy battery, it feels safer lol. What do you think??
Does the BM7 II display the traffic lights?
im off to Amazon now ..thanks..
😅
I’ve been looking for a right angle usb C version of that Kondor Blue cable. I can’t find anywhere
Actually its an adapter on the cable, I just added a link in the description ;)
Any more travel friendly tripods?
I never get the need for expensive v-mount rigs. What am I missing? I just hook my camera up to a usb power brick that’s 20 buck via usb c and it lasts for hours. Never had a problem. That being said, some monitors only accept d tap, or Sony/Canon batteries. So you could use a big v mount brick for both I guess. I never felt the need the need tho with my atamos.
Couldn't agree more in terms of a good tripod, I've been wanting to upgrade my tripod legs from the Speedlocks to the Flowtechs but haven't been able to justify it. Maybe when my Speedlocks become too worn out I'll make the upgrade. The D-Tap to USB-C adapter looks great, something that I definitely have to add to my kit!
Davinci Blowing Adobe straight out the water wow and I noticed a lot of people are switching out of PP as well wow.. Hey man you mind next video you do maybe at the end of the video just put a 1 minute stare of the rig? I just wanna gawk it for a moment lol. Inspired new videographer here and I literally just got some stuff to rig out my sony a7rii but she aint looking like yours though. Your rig thicc!
The last time I went camping, I decided to stress check my drones' hard case by closing the air vent and chucking it in a creek! The look on my wife's face while I tossed a couple grand in the drink was totally worth it! (I knew it would float!)
Oh man... nightmare scenario haha
Wow an actually useful non lame gear video. Dope
Glad you think so! Appreciate it man
What?! Of COURSE I actually read the description!
BTW: the Amazon link button on the webpage linked in the description seems to not be working...
What would you say the best editing program is? Think my husband uses premiere pro, i did try it but it's so techy, i think i need something for kids🙃, my husband is a filmmaker, he made Genesis Paradise Lost 3D. Ralphy is working on another film meant for theaters in 2024:)) hope u get to catch it.
:)) God bless
What's the camera you are rigging here?
Is that a Oktava mic you have there ?
What we really want to know is what collapsable dolly you're using brotha?!
Would charging the battery in the camera make it hot and eventually overheat my Sony A7C or similar?
The camera won't overheat while being constantly charged?
Will the D-Tap work for Sony cameras? Because I see it gor the Canon R5
Will you please please give me an Adobe keyboard shortcut thing so I can upload it into DaVinci!!!??? My biggest hurdle is dealing with the keyboard shortcuts. I live on the keyboard when I'm cutting and recently I tried getting back into DaVinci and just really don't know if I can live without my habituated keyboard shortcuts. I'm so deep in my projects and they are so big that I don't know how easy it'll be to transition but I need all the help I can get!
I hate Adobe so much I can't believe I've been using it for like 20 years. It's such trash. Every year so many dreadful heartbreaking bugs that set me back complete days at a time and weeks combined all while paying out the ass. It's such a horrible nightmare. But DaVinci wasn't really viable 20 years ago as far as I'm concerned and it's been hard to stick with learning it when I have so much work to do. But I think now is the best time!
I can buy a car from the price of the tripod here in Denmark. I'll buy a car and just put the camera on the hood 🤣
Resolve is the best piece of software for creators
🙏🙏🙏
VALUE FROM THE GET!!!
THANK YOUUU
I was hoping you'd talk about batteries🙏
My 30 years old Manfrotto 058 also does that with the legs, what's the news?🙄
You can check in the cart dolly?
Yup! 👍
❤
You will find yourself upgrading your tripod as soon as you try to film a live performance with a long lens with a sketchy tripod for the first time. 😉
Can't wait to see Adobe realize people are actually leaving Premiere for a free software. They have to start improving on Premiere A LOT to keep it up with the industry. Hoping that will happen soon
I have worked with Pr for 5 years, i think i will give Davinci a try…
the only problem with resolve is the free version dosent supoort 10 bit
I wish I could afford a good tripod its what's holding me back to be honest
It's a solid investment!! Hope you get your hands on one soon. Thanks for watching 🙏
So moral of this video, "portkeys sent me a free monitor!"
On my way to buy a better tripod. lol. I have had the same one for ten years
Love to hear it!!
wow handsome AND smart that is so neat
I will self immolate before I buy another smallrig product.
wtf 1600 tripod
first
bro nice video but for real why are you speaking staccato with all those artificial pauses after every 2nd word? I find it quite exhausting to listen to. I am 100% sure you do not talk like this in your everyday life. not trying to front or troll, appreciate the effort you put into your video, just thought might be worth tryin to improve the flow of your speech on camera. cheers
Oddly enough, this is exactly how I speak and communicate in everyday life. You can ask anyone around me, or who I've worked or collaborated with! I'm sorry to hear it bothers you. Glad you enjoyed the video
@@RyanKao hey mate, thanks for your reply. hope it didnt come off rude, was not my intention at all. it doesn't bother me but I find it a bit difficult to follow. anyway, nevermind, you do you :) take care
