      I had the Kessler kwik arca standard before but the production I’m on are often renting bigger cameras like fx9, c500, Amira, ursa g2 etc with the angenuix zooms, I invested in a nice sachtler head but quickly realized I wasn’t able to properly balance these types of rigs on the tripod with out some type of sliding mechanisms so I moved to the Arri standard which definitely has is cons but I was able to find the patented bright tangerine “open up left field quick release”wich allows me to quickly and securely mount any Arri dovetail (even out of spec ones)from the top load position

    How's the autofocus on the sigma? When I pick up my fx3, I'm thinking about getting the new Sigma 24-70 II. I like the Sony GM, but I'd rather not spend the extra $1,000 if I don't have to, I would much rather pick up a 70-200 as a second lens... for something just as good. -- Also would love to see a review down the line about the CF express cards, they are on my list as well.

      I have Impact and Matthews/American. You def get what you pay for. I use the Impact for little light things like holding my wireless receiver bar that holds four receivers. But for lights and real use, American or Matthews are the gold standard. MSE and Norms are decent too.

      @ I’ve made it work for years with impact, neewer, and cowboy studio stands. But once I bought a Matthew’s stand again recently, I remembered why I never saw those brands back in the day when I ran a grip truck. I’ll be sticking to premium brands from now on. They really are just better. Would I recommend a client build out their home studio with premium stands over impact or kupo? Probably not. But for me, I’m paying the extra ~48%. Buy once, cry once is real.

    My 2 cents, but you're making your client overcomplicate and spend unnecessary money on that green screen setup. If there's house power, use that, no need for the expensive vmounts and charger setup especially with it being a fixed setup that isn't being transported or needing remote power.

      @@garrettgoerlvisuals my idea is if we have batteries then I can quickly relocate stands and lights without plugging in. But I think I can go with a mix of our approaches, keep the lights set for the green screen on house power and the lights for the subject (weather they are at green screen or kitchen or living room in battery power.
      This client is really particular. While it might be overkill, I think they would pay for the convenience of battery.

      There’s no need to imitate anyone bc your perspective and personality is unique. I think it’s pretty fair to say that if you watch my vlogs, you are seeing an accurate representation of myself. It’s also too exhausting to pretend to be someone else.
