How to balance a ZOOM LENS on your GIMBAL
In this video I show how to balance your 15-35mm zoom lens on a gimbal so you can use different focal lengths (switching to 15mm or 35mm) while the gimbal is still balanced.

    Photographer(photo enthuist) and someone who has a degree in commercial photography first off there's no cookie cutter answer it depends on preference I have been using wasabi Power Batteries for over 5 years and they haven't been an issue the issue comes with other lesser known brands. Ive haven't had a good relationship with the original batteries take for example my canon rebel t7 I got last year whenever I charge the original battery that comes with it doesn't hold a charge so I would test it to make sure it has enough battery then I am met with the charge color being orange instead of green using the original charger I don't know if its just me

    I just bought the new Dji mic 2 for my Sony a7c and i love it. I set to Mono and Stereo, with the low cut filter OFF and NC OFF and it sounds very well with the mic attached to my shirt. The new wheel is nice, the package is top notch, and i pay only 50% because i won at the casino, ah ah. Dji product seems solid and well thought, sounds good. Then after in post in DaVinci Resolve, you can always refine the sound IF you want with AI voice enhancer or isolation, apply special EQ and compressor for top professional quality. But right of the box the sound is good to my opinion. I prefer to disable all options on the mic to keep the best quality with the ambiant sound, then you can always modify it later with a powerful software. I always disable nc and lcf on all my boom mics as well. I need to buy a stereo to mono splitter so i can test connecting my stereo azden smx-30 stereo/mono via the two transmitter and record 120 degree stereo wirelessly. Dji told me it should work, outside of their design but it should work.

    You do not know how to fly a drone, You are breaking almost all regulations ever known, flying under 33m AGL without VLOS , i could easily report your video and they could track you down and give you a fine for illegal flight. Just check how many youtubers had the same Issue for trying to earn 5 bucks out of ads they get 500 dollar fines or more depending on how many rules you are "showing the evidence" When you are going to do a video I suggest you to use your brain a little bit before you actually do act upon it. I know your reaction will be like, oh this guy hates me blah blah blah, I hope you are wise enough to see its in "bona fide" , just cut the scene where you show yourself flying or replace them i would say, or show yourself a flight where you are above 33m AGL at least

      I just bought the dji mic 2 two days ago and there is no noise, the mic is set for my camera listed in the menu and i set my camera gain the lowest possible (1-4) to maintain -12db level and no peaking Then in post (Davinci Resolve) you can normalize for the application you use (youtube). I haven’t it yet but With digital adapter, you don’t need to set the camera gain, it’s digital. The dji mic 2 sounds good with the mic on shirt or in interview mode, but must not be too close from the mouth or it will peak and distort, but that is normal with all the mic. But on the shirts or jackets at the normal distance, the sound is excellent with no noise. Wirelessly. I haven’t checked the files yet. But i am certain these are perfect with the 32 bits mode activated as i do.
