Actually it is cheaper...about $200...so based on what is required of cineback that is a battery $97, dummy battery $40, smallrig cage for fx3/fx30 ( if anyone one doesn't own one like myself) which is $62 and then cineback itself current is $329 or $337 with shipping and tax..so the total is $537...if i use your set up it turns out the total cost is $328...so $537 - $328 = $209.. I'm saving ~$209...if I am not mistaken lol.. I'm pretty bad with math and I am a broke filmmaker haha...sorry didn't mean to bash anyone and bore you with my calculation but I had to do it for me to decide which route I need to go about...hope this helps someone here...bottom line..thanks for the alternative and for this video. Really appreciate it man!
Great video thanks! I have this setup for my S5iiX. I attached my Hollyland TX with Velcro on the back side of the battery holder. With the sliding adjustment you can snug up the TX nicely against the back of the camera
@@Maxxter115 that’s a great call. Are you using a dtap to power that as well? I use the motion control app a lot now with the iPad since it’s pretty solid and keeps the size down:)
Oh sweet. This is what I did with my R5! Only, I dont use the dtap strip my battery has enough outlets to power all the accessories I might use at any one time.
Nice video! I like to keep my rig on the smaller side as well. Do you have a link to your mic? Did you customize it cause it does look like any SHURE MV7X when I do a google search
Your video looks spectacular, but I think you need to bring out the lights and highlights up a bit. It's very disturbing looking at my screen but only have your video be very dark. Great video otherwise. Appreciate your insight!
It was this support from CAMVATE - it works great when I need this for SDI conversion and want to keep my converter close - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q44FQCD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@invisibleadversary I agree, I really love still having a battery in my camera so I can still pull it off the setup to be super nimble! This camera was made to be small and nimble!
Thank justbasl for this PRACTICAL video regarding Cineback alternative. I love your rig because it's lighter, smaller even though it's not cheaper.
I have the same setup minus the extra D-tap splitter. I agree with you that it's amazing for run and gun scenarios. Thanks for sharing.
I have that SmallRig V-Mount attachment. I had no idea you could slide the camera with the cage directly! Thanks for sharing this bro!
It looks pretty sick! Great alternative for sure. I'm so glad Smallrig came up with that attachment!

@@justbasl I’m using the 8v output on my Smallrig 99’s to power the TX, the 12v to power the camera and the Dtap to power my 7” monitor.
4:38 just an fyi that’s an arca Swiss mount on bottom of small rig cage, not nato rail.
@@sharifsalem good catch thank you!

@@darianjones3268 Thanks! Yeah here is the link. I just put it on a desk arm, that is the only thing I did different:) a.co/d/bO4rWeX

@@erwickdsouza thanks for the advice! I am definitely still playing with the exposure and these older lights I have in my setup:)
Great video, whats the attachment you used on the HDMI to SDI converter?

@@justbasl thanks man!
Nice video!
Thanks! I hope to have more up real soon!
NICE!
Usefull= Yes; But man, Cineback is way too cooler
Yes I completely agree! It makes it feel more put together!
What mic is that on top handle ?
@@boothmedianyc6830 it the smallrig shotgun mic:)
Having to gut the battery slot and implement a dummy battery is the worst aspect of the Cineback.
