Neewer Mini V-Mount 99wh Battery Review
This Neewer battery bank can charge EVERYTHING!
Link to buy this thing: amzn.to/4fcQ682
I have a ton of battery banks in my studio, but this one is my new go to - it has a D-tap, it has USB C and USB A, there are even 12v and 8v barrel plugs that come directly out of the thing for video lights.
It can charge at 65 watts PD power, so it can even charge your laptop a full charge with its capacity. But also, it will charge your phone and iPad as fast as they will accept power, just as fast as a full sized wall outlet.

Viltrox 56mm f1.7 Lens for Sony E-Mount Reviewed with ZV-E10
Переглядів 81714 днів тому
The Viltrox 56mm 1.7 is a budget, cheap, portrait lens for Sony APSC Cameras like the zve10, holy crap this one is it. It's fast, it's got great subject separation, it works for making UA-cam videos just as well as taking pictures. I can't believe how little this thing costs for how well it works. These photos literally stack up against my $1000 lenses! Link to buy: amzn.to/4eGtgpM 0:00 Intro 0...

    I raved about this product and was over the moon with it's versatility. However my Panasonic S5ii a £1700 camera is now broken and after some investigation I have tracked the culprit to this V-Mount battery. YES it's happened before and not just once it has happened many times before. You cannot run the camera through the USB-C port as advertised. There are also many youtube videos saying this is OK. IT IS NOT OK BE WARNED. There are other's complaining that the battery supplies too much voltage to the camera and it fries the HDMI circuit. It doesn't happen straight away. You will experience some anomilies at first and like I did put it down to a dodgy cable or something. It isn't the cable it's the HDMI port struggling with the voltage supplied by this 'intelligent' battery. I put my faith in this product and it has been extremly costly do not do the same. Both of my batteries will be returned. I'm gutted because I thought I had found a true solution for my power setup.

      @@NicholasJamesJohnson Thank you for answering my question. However not sure if we talk about the same; its likely that I need two screens next of each other because one is to small. So there should be two sheets of green (or pink). My question is that probably due to sizing I need two green screens as one background. My question is do both green background screens have to be exactly the same green; or can there be a certain amount of deviation in the green color; and to what extent can I control that in FCP? taken to the extreme can mint glossy green and against traffic light matt dark green be used without any issues? Can I select in FCP a range of greens?

    Yeah, looks like a solid power supply with lots of great features. And I knew all that coming in; you've mentioned it in previous videos. But the one feature it seems to lack - thus, why I haven't bought one - is an elegant way to hold this brick while it's charging all that gear. Honestly, I'm drawing a blank on this score. Would've been nice if Neewer offered (or bundled with it) some kind of 'tripod mounting accessory'. Am I missing something? If so, LMK. Otherwise, all ideas welcome. .

The best audio I can get on my ZV-E10 is 48k x 16bit and that's through the mic jack regardless if it's from the built in microphones, an external mic or an outboard sound source set to 24bit sending sound to the mic port. 16bit it seems is what the Sony's pre-amp limits recording to. Please let us know if recording digitally using the multi shoe with these bumps this up to 24 bit ok? I might have to plunk down on the single unit version of this going to get me 24 bit recording.
