- The Canon C70 is an incredible camera, even in 2023. Recently we decided to add a rig to our setup to allow for more ease and flexibility for shooting handheld. In this video you'll find all of our favourite parts and the links to them are in the description below.

So good! I just bought the C70 for weddings and this video was very helpful.
Mac, this video was super duper 🔥
Hahaha thanks I thought it was neato!
Well done video.. !!
Good review.
Didn't think I missed Canon until watching this vid....Ugh I just...I miss it. Awesome as per usual! Also, dope glasses for realz
That's really my main mission... get you back to Canon haha. Thanks man! 🤓
Come back! It's nice in the Canon world 😄
Hey! love the video, can you please share the power cable for the dtap to the C70 you are using? its a bit confusing!
Rig videos may be my favorite thing to watch, not gonna lie. You should consider the Smallrig half cage for the C70. I think it'll do everything your Nitze cage is doing but it keeps the hand grip completely free for a much more comfortable hold.
I've super curious about that one! Have you tried that cage? I think you're right that it would be more comfortable but there is something about having a bit more protection around the side. It saved me once already so now I'm afraid of going without it haha
@@hellotmrw I haven’t been able to yet unfortunately. Just rocking that little Tilta top plate at the moment. I totally get what you mean about the protection though.
Great video, thanks. How do you adjust audio gain if its blocked by the battery?
Such a sick rig! But your steez on a few of those things and they’re game changers!
Ps that sign off 🤌🏻🤌🏻 ASMR video next??
Slowly pivoting to all ASMR
@@hellotmrw yes please
What cable are you using for the V-mount
Your links to the Vmount plate is routed to the cage - I have the C70 and would love to purchase the Vmount accessories
Oh shoot my bad! Just corrected that. Thanks for the heads up!
Hi! I currently am on week 2 of owning my full c70 rig. Using 8Sinn cage and accessories combined with a lot of SmallRig stuff. I noticed you have the Peak Design tripod in your description-- do you use this tripod with the c70? Additionally, what did you add to the rig/tripod for turning it into a cinematography tripod? I ordered the 8Sinn arca/riser plate but hasn't arrived yet. My concern is lack of a tripod arm, but I do see there are heads available with very nice arms for filming. Have been looking at the Smallrig one.
I'm also looking at switching my system over to Tilta, Smallrig, or Nitze, depending on what the best option is as I have the DJI RS3 Pro on the way (although I am mostly interested in handheld videography)
Hey bro great video as always. One question though. How do you manual focus if the handle is in the way? Do you just put your hand completely underneath the camera for that?
Thanks so much! The side grip actually sits a little higher up and I don't find it gets in the way at all for manual focus. Actually sometimes it is a great point of contact for my wrist while focusing.
Great video! What type of D-taps are you using for the C70 and the atomos shinobi? Heard the atomos models shinobi and ninja need different d-taps?
Thanks so much! I actually use the Shinobi on my C70 b cam which doesn't have a v mount setup. So just Sony batteries for that monitor. Sorry!
Hey Maclean! What are your settings for audio with the NTG Video Mic - I've rented the C70 twice, and I've had a hard time dialing in the camera gain and the mic gain - there seems to be a ton of noise if I have the gain set at a good camera level, where the mic itself won't clip. Any thoughts?
I ran into a similar issue! I've found turning the camera gain to about 2 or so and then relying on the manual knob on the mic itself to be most reliable.
I love this, so helpful! What is the adapter you use? Can you please link that?
Sure thing? Which one are you referring to? The ef to rf?
@@hellotmrw Oh, sorry I didn't clarify - the focal reducing one
I am just here for the Interstellar poster.
It’s a good one right?!?!
Great Rig! Do you use most of the time manual focus or the auto focus? If you are using the auto focus, is the mic recording the noise of the auto focus?
I do use autofocus here and there but mainly for long A roll moments. The mic does pick up the noise a little bit but 99% of the time I have other mics that are my primary source. The on camera mic is often just scratch audio/ambience.
Nice Video Bro i have the same Rig!😂✅
Ha nice! You have great taste!
With that big battery in the way of the screen. Do you find you’re ever missing the touch screen to change focus …?
No not really. I’m a big manual focus shooter except for long A roll moments so it doesn’t bother me. But if I did need it I would just make sure I set the LCD up to be out and to the side before putting the battery on.
@@hellotmrw awesome thanks man! Loving all this new content!
Thanks a ton man! More coming!
Compared to the Canon 24-70 ii, how much sharper is the Sigma? I need a second 24-70, and injust dont care for the lack of sharpness from my Canon L 24-70 ii.
Unfortunately I can’t speak to this as I’ve never owned or used the canon version. But I’ve heard the sigma sharper but the colours aren’t as good as in the Canon.
Hey man! This might be a dumb question, but do you mind sharing what the name/cable is to connect the v mount to the camera? I've always just used dummy batteries in other cameras.
No problem! It was the "Acouto D-Tap Adapter Cable D-Tap B-Type Male to Right Angle DC 5.5x2.5mm Adapter Cable Accessory for Anton V-Mount Battery". Hope this helps!
@@hellotmrw sorry to bother again haha,
do you think the action 5 is close enough to your LCD image? Color, contrast, handling highlights? I’m trying to figure out a monitor and can’t stand the color of my shinobi anymore.
hey mate, which camera are you using for this video? looks great , cheers
Thanks so much man! This was also shot on the C70. We have two and love them.
@@hellotmrw oh, that explains everything, thanks for sharing, I always wonder what gear and codecs its been used. cheers,
what strength glimmer glass are you using?
Glimmer glass 1.
What is your B cam for the C70? This has been my biggest struggle finding a comfortable b cam to pair with my C70.
For us the R5 has been awesome! Not perfect but certainly capable for most situations. I just wish so bad that the R5 would have a better Clog 3 or even Clog 2.
I have the R5C and it matches perfectly. I film Clog2 on the C70 and Clog3 on the R5C. The trick is to use the same Log to Rec709 conversion lut. I use the clog2 to Rec709 and Clog3 to Rc709 buttery luts.
get the s5 II, amazing DR and reliable autofocus
I like the rig, but I use the C70 screen alot, and wonder if it's not a problem not to be able to use that?
Totally get that. If you use the screen a lot then I would just set it up with it out and to the side. That way it is still accessible.
I hate that you just covered up the most important thing with the Canon C70, the manual sound controls on the back of the flip screen..
But everything else in the video is super sweet.
using v mount + battery grip on my B-cam (R5c)
The c70 with the big batteries is så crazy for long shoots (6 hours) but V mount is so nice because it goes well with my aputure lights (300X) so its a battery that could be used multiple places in my setup... you video made me think it might work with the flip V mount solution that you didnt like :P
I need that HDMI lock... Is that seperate? I jumped to Nitze a while ago! The secret is out!
I do believe they sell it separately but this came included with my Nitze cage. Glad I'm in on the secret now. Love this cage!
@@hellotmrw THAT'S CRAP! I bought mine a couple of years ago and didn't get one! 👎🏾😜 I ordered from Nitze and Ebay... from China.. which are limited. I have a different handle than yours. I also use the C70... I have same Sigma... I also have the 24-105 with that Booster (4.0 to 2.8)... You should try that... I have the 28-70 also but that 24-105 with booster is in the starting lineup
@@hellotmrw that battery setup maybe under consideration because it would remove battery from my monitor - Atomos Ninja V
Tempting me to switch to Canon…
Hahaha doo ittttt! Although I can say the same for you and Sony!
@@hellotmrw Almost did last week, no joke 👀
Your links for the products aren’t correct 🥲
Thank you so much for letting me know! Should be all fixed now.
