Ugh here I am _drooling_ over that camera. We're young newlywed vloggers making a new life for ourselves in Las Vegas, and we've been looking more into cameras lately... I can't even imagine the crazy shots we'd get with that camera! I hope you guys get some awesome shots with it! Very excited to see what you can do with it! Good luck, happy recording. :) xox
Who cares if Ben has spent 7,000$ on the camera. He earned that money by himself, he can spend it on whatever he likes. He loves making films and all that has to do with it. Just chill guys and be happy for him because he will be making better films with a better quality. Enjoy you new toy Ben!
I might be a little late to the party and I'm sure you've got the FS700 down pact but, the highlights were blown in these shots. Though the 700 has pretty grand dynamic range its highlight retention is a bit short ended, its best to underexpose it to conserve highlights. Its an amazing camera in the shadows so bringing it up in post is like buttering a cow. (not sure what that idiom means but yeah)
I really liked the slow motion action of Alfie walking. You could see his little face properly and was so cute the way his little feet looked so floppy when he was walking x
Wow man congrats on the new camera! It'll be worth the money w/ the things you'll be able to accomplish. Looking forward to all the great content you'll be able to do on it! Cheers
I'm so excited for the awesome footage I know you'll be able to get with this camera! You put so much passion into your work and the price of equipment is just part of filmmaking that you have to accept in order to create good content. Totally worth it in the end :)
A great big purchase - I already know it's going to lead to amazing things. Your upcoming visual vibes will be so sick. Really proud of all of your hard work and dedication to this. Can't wait to see what's in store, thanks for everything Ben =)
I walked past you and Louis today down on Southbank! Would have stopped and had a chat but you looked pretty busy with your filming, oh and nice camera!
Love the slow motion footage, and investing in pricey equipment may seem odd to some people, on the other hand it can serve as a motivational tool helping to inspire creativity and content, as well as having the potential to increase the quality of your content. By no means does this mean that great content can't be created on less expensive gear. Gear is merely a tool to help in creation.
Congrats on your purchase!! I don't know much about cameras, I just congratulate you for wanting something, waiting till you could get if, and fulfilling that desire! It's awesome to get something you worked hard for! I'm sure there will be a lot of great content coming from this! And fluffball is always cute, even if he's growing so fast! Hahaha Ok love you, bye! Haha
This shows how passionate he is about filming! I don't think he just bought it for fun im sure he wants to have a future with filming and someday the Sony will pay itself! Goodluck
I've owned and operated my FS700 for about a year now, in all kinds of conditions recording all kinds of subject matter and I adore it. It has never let me down and I've abused the hell out of it. I am, however, only now exploring the word of cine lenses and now I have to own one. What lens have you seen the best results with in trying to achieve a pure 'cinema' feel? I've read good reviews of the Rokinon t1.5 85mm and 35mm lenses and they won't destroy my wallet as much. Thanks!
I knwo the video is "old" - but i use this camera today for my everyday work - with my Sony FS7 and it works very good with the FS7. I got my FS700 "used" from an TV-station in Hamburg. A great maschine and very robust - is us this camera with the Xeen-Lenses and Zeiss-Lenses. 2017 i use this camera for some work at the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie and the video looks amazing. This year i want buy a Sony PMW-F5 as a A-Camera.
Technology improves so quickly! There's no point in spending that kind of money for a camera unless you work in an actual studio! You can easily get an amazing 4k camera like the GH4 for 1,000$ instead of 8,000$. I know it has more features, such as slow motion. But still, thats a hella lot of money for something that will be considered "old" in probably less than 3-5 years!!
Oh and you're using a hella shitty tripod for such an expensive camera! Wow, you should get something much stronger to support that huge heavy camera and lens!
I agree with the tripod. My DSLR fell off my shitty £10 tripod so just bought myself a nice manfrotto and gimbal head! It's not worth having a cheap tripod - too risky!
Joonas Puuppo Why? I'm not jealous, I'm just cheap as fuck and spend my money reasonably. BTW, I'm only 16, so I haven't started working, but my parents own a lot of land, and aren't poor. We live in a house worth a little over a $1M. And in a month, I'm moving to my own brand new little luxury condo (that my parents bought for me for college), which costs about half million. So please, if I was ballsy enough to want an 8000$ camera, then I could get it. Like I said, not jealous, just very cheap and smart with spending. The truth is, it's not the camera, it's the filmmaker. Spending 8000$ on a camera that perform like the GH4 (with a few more features) or even a Go Pro Hero 3 is insane! Phillip Bloom used a Go Pro Hero 3 in his vietnam video and it is absolutely breathtaking!
I don't think it's a waste if money, sure he might be broke for awhile but look at the great opportunities. It's awesome how even more creative it can get! Excited.
a deposit for a house tends to be around 10% of the full price so it's unlikely he would find a place around the area he lives in currently for that much, but i see where you're coming from :P
***** Yer I know, it would've helped a lot though. Hopefully the camera will be like an investment for the future. I would love to play around with a camera like that haha. Best of luck.
Oh, man. Ben, that was some amazing footage of Alfie and friend. Very cool. But I gotta say, you 'content' is pretty damn fine. Always interesting shots, close ups, etc ... but I guess you're wanting to take it up a notch. Well good for you. Btw I'm certain it must be awesome havin' your girl with you. Good for you. Ok, take care.
*Oh My God*! The FS700 is my dream camera! Can´t wait to see the videos you shoot with it! Also stabilizing your Stedicam with a new camera is such a pain..
£9000 on a video camera. He's got that TH-cam MONAYYYYYYYYYYY
Ben, the amount of effort and dedication you out into making your viewers happy is unreal, keep up the good work!
Thank you Scott :)
And then replying to comments, too much! 😉 Ben, do you know when you will have jumpers back in stock in your shop?
As my mum says, you can't take your money with you when you die. So if you want something that you're going to enjoy and get use of .. buy it!!! :)

Loving the emphasis on transitions in your vlogs at the moment. Ties together your sequences so nicely!
Dude I can just say that I love your vlogs and that I am so in love with your way of living
Who cares if Ben has spent 7,000$ on the camera. He earned that money by himself, he can spend it on whatever he likes. He loves making films and all that has to do with it. Just chill guys and be happy for him because he will be making better films with a better quality. Enjoy you new toy Ben!
Incredible camera. I think that 4K technology will not dominate the market. Great choice, 1080p is still new.
Anderson Marques How wrong were you
Alfie sure knows how to work his angles!! Great footage, Ben, super excited for the amazing new content you'll be releasing!
Never get bored of your vlogs benn

I really liked the slow motion action of Alfie walking. You could see his little face properly and was so cute the way his little feet looked so floppy when he was walking x

Love the quick creative flicks between cofee close up. Could work excelent to do those in your shoot tomorrow.

So excited for the upcoming content Ben! Even though I don't know exactly what's coming, I know it will be good stuff.

Congrats on your purchase!! I don't know much about cameras, I just congratulate you for wanting something, waiting till you could get if, and fulfilling that desire! It's awesome to get something you worked hard for! I'm sure there will be a lot of great content coming from this!
And fluffball is always cute, even if he's growing so fast! Hahaha

You and Nicole are so cute, you make me so happy.

Haaaaa i laughed a lot with Nicole's "well i woke up, and now i'm here." eyy dear
I love all the music from every one of your vlogs, the music just makes it that much better. Where do you usually get your music from?
Finally! Been having a bad day, glad to finally see this!
I knwo the video is "old" - but i use this camera today for my everyday work - with my Sony FS7 and it works very good with the FS7.
I got my FS700 "used" from an TV-station in Hamburg.

This year i want buy a Sony PMW-F5 as a A-Camera.
Awesome camera! I feel the need to buy one of your shirts to sponsor those amazing videos haha
Technology improves so quickly! There's no point in spending that kind of money for a camera unless you work in an actual studio!

Jealous much? :)
Joonas Puuppo much jello WhatTechShow

Awesome buy Ben! Wicked footage. Looks so cool
I don't think it's a waste if money, sure he might be broke for awhile but look at the great opportunities. It's awesome how even more creative it can get! Excited.
The footage from your new camera is immense!
Love the transitions on the coffee!
Omg woowww the clips of alfie on your cam are amazing! Soo impressive
You could've put down a down payment on your own house for the amount of money spent on that camera. Hopefully you can make more money back from it.
a deposit for a house tends to be around 10% of the full price so it's unlikely he would find a place around the area he lives in currently for that much, but i see where you're coming from :P
Not in London you can't! haha but yeah, I was super nervous about buying it but it'll pay for itself pretty quickly...
***** Yer I know, it would've helped a lot though. Hopefully the camera will be like an investment for the future. I would love to play around with a camera like that haha. Best of luck.
Some pretty insane slow-mo footage of Alfie and the brown Labradoodle!
Oh, man. Ben, that was some amazing footage of Alfie and friend. Very cool. But I gotta say, you 'content' is pretty damn fine. Always interesting shots, close ups, etc ... but I guess you're wanting to take it up a notch. Well good for you.
Btw I'm certain it must be awesome havin' your girl with you. Good for you. Ok, take care.
Best vlogs ever! Ben is the best!
Wow. The quality of that camera is amazing😍
*Oh My God*! The FS700 is my dream camera!
Can´t wait to see the videos you shoot with it!
Also stabilizing your Stedicam with a new camera is such a pain..
Awesome shots already! I'd love to do what you do Ben. Will you be using that camera in Canada? Cheers man!
5:58 Love that shot.
wow thats quite the camera... looks great though
