Two Person Sit Down Interview BTS - Sony FX6 & FX3
Well done, Paul! Footage looks great and def not the easiest sport to start with!
Thanks so much! I know it’s just a normal person behind the account, but I’m slightly fan-girling that @sonycine saw and commented ☺️🥰
There could not have been a better leader for this project, or a better team!
Aw you're too kind, Kathryn! Thanks so much!
sickkkkkk video as always! thanks for having me out!
Brother, always love working with you! Thanks!
Great BTS!
Thanks brother! Not in this video, but in many others I've stolen your single stand booklight haha!
@@paulhuenefeld That is awesome to hear!
@PDMokry always learning 👏🏻👏🏻
Yeah boi! Final videos look so good!! Great stuff bro
Thanks for your help on it! 👏🏻👏🏻
Love it dude! Such a great day. That footage from the project y’all were shooting looks so so good.
Thanks! This is the man behind the bts camera! 👆👆 Thanks for your help!
I just bought a track E, and the Tentacle brand 3.5mm to USB-C cable, and can confirm it will not sync with the DJI Osmo Action 4.....at least I don't get the time code synced conformation screen. I have a different cable on order to try that. Very frustrating when it can come down to cables.
Ah yeah very frustrating! Sorry! I haven’t had a chance to try out the Osmo Action 4 yet…
I love dehancer. I use it on almost every project. Most of the time I don’t use the film stocks I mainly use film compression because it gives my videos a better highlight roll off. In my opinion I think it makes it look like it was shot in a better camera. I’m no professional but I’m learning. Only gripe with dehancer is the price. It’s expensive but worth it in my opinion.
Yes I really like the film compression too! The price is definitely steep, that’s why I was ok with doing a “sponsored” video for them hahaha!
Thank you for such a detailed and interesting review! Amazing work! If there is any questions about Dehancer, please let us know in the comments.
Of course! Thanks for the partnership 👏🏻👏🏻
Great video man! I’m a fellow Arkansas so had to subscribe immediately!
Oh yeah dude thanks!
But don't you have to have one tentacle box PER DEVICE? So, if you're recording audio on an external recorder, and you have the Sony a7s iii, you have to have a timecode box connected to the camera, and then you have to have a timecode box on the external recorder. Right? In that case, the dual timecode box set of the Sync E is actually cheaper. Or am I wrong?
Yes, I'm looking at prices now and it's all different than when I made this video! There wasn't even an option for the Dual Sync E package so that definitely lowers the price per unit! In my opinion, the Track E still offers so much more functionality for not much more cost. ALSO, PRICE UPDATE! The single unit Track E is only $20 more than the Sync E!
Amazing video I like the Dehancer-looking effects you added as well. I have a question for you sir: so I can run the track e or sync e through a TRS to micro usb cable instead of the 3.5mm jack correct? Does that mean I could then use the ECM-B1M through the hot shoe on the 2nd channel? (it usually disables the 3.5mm jack)
Thanks so much! Yes that sounds right, but really only with the A7siii, Fx3, and Fx30 because I don't think any other Sony mirrorless cameras are able to accept timecode through usb yet. I have not tried that specific setup, so I'm just theorizing that it will work hahaha!
Looking to buy something like this now as I am setting up a home studio. Something i see on this product is that you cant get the light in focus at th e top and the bottom in this video. So has me a bit worried. Some options like a more expensive one from Wellmaking has a canon EF lens mount, some have light shaping via geometry inserts, etc. So overall would you say skip this one and grab a different one?
I think if you have extra budget, it would be worth it to go with a higher quality spotlight mount for your lights. BUT this is still really great for minimal money. All in all, I just use this for personal work and use others for paid client work....
Is there an option to output the timecode audio signal via the USB-C port?
That would be amazing! But no I don't think so....
Does the new tentacle cable work for the a7iv as well? Or is the a7iv still need to use the 3.5mm jack?
Yeah I’m pretty sure the A7IV still can only do timecode into the 3.5mm audio input. Sorry!
@@paulhuenefeld thank you!
Fantastic video, thanks so much
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice work, Paul! Respect for the effort you put in. Subbed!
Thanks a ton!
Played it back multiple times. I have no idea what you did. Awesome shot though!
Ha thanks! I respect the determination 👏🏻
Final shot looks great! Not sure what the secret trick was 😮
Thanks a ton! We’ll wait to see if anybody can spot it! I’ll reveal the secret later 👍🏻
Love the bluey cameo. Relatable content 😂
Ha yes! Big Bluey fan over here!
Did you use magic mask for both of them? To make them pop a bit
Close, but no cigar!
Loved it Paul, awesome job all the way around 😊👍🏼
Thanks Pete!
Sorry guys.... The new Deity is shipping soon and will compete nicely with this. PR-2. Stay tunned.
Oooh nice! You got your hands on it early?
I can't wait! The fact that Tentacle caved to U.S. Patent trolls without providing some workaround is absolutely unacceptable. As soon as something is available that can compete, I'm ditching Tentacle forever. LTC signal is easy to generate with a $1 Arduino chip, the fact that they charge $200 for this is insulting. It's literally the guts of a "bluepill" stm32 development board in the box! Infuriating.
Amazing!
Thanks!
It's nice benefit to be able to use the Track E as a Sync E but I don't think it's a smart choice over having the Sync E(s). Just plug the Sync E's into the cameras and leave them there for the duration and , for me, it's been fool proof(and I am a novice fool....lol). Those Tentacle guys need to be commended for their obvious passion for their products. I wish all others would follow their example. Great product. Enjoyed the video.Cheers.
Thanks! Yes, I’m very excited to see what else Tentacle creates!
Leaving a timecode box plugged into your camera the whole time you're shooting is the best way to make sure there is no timecode drift. That's best practice so in that regard the Sync E isn't obsolete at all. I'm sure jamming timecode once and then using just the Track E will work most of the time but I wouldn't be willing to take that risk because the post production would be a nightmare and that would be costly and reflect reality badly on me haha
Yes I definitely agree! I keep the Track E connected to the camera the whole day. I won’t use it as a timecode box and recorder at the same time, I will use it for a specific use case each time. Basically the cost difference is so close that it’s worth it to buy the Track E to have the ability to use it as a recorder or timecode box at any time 👍🏻👍🏻
US market is out of luck. Just tested this update. TC output muted as soon as you press record. My advice is get yourself a European version. I wonder if Canada is getting fully featured units.
Yes, I would love input from someone with a European version! I just replied to your previous comment, hope that clears us how I've been using it! Thanks!
Yes the Canadian ones are full featured.
@@boutthere3374 super! Do you know any Tentacle dealer close to NY border by any chance?
Contact me. I got the International version with the W lav pro mic included. Works with my wireless lav setup and syncs with Adode Premiere, FC Pro, and Resovle via their TC Sync software. .1 click and you import the xml files into your Video editing program. So much better and like I said, I got 4 lav mics ...wireless recording on each box and are synced perfectly.
I don't think that Track E can replace the Sync E yet. I've installed the new version of software and upon checking the app I found that you don't have any options of Sync E. The only things you can choose is what comes out of headphone output. There's no option for choosing the TC format and camera frame rates. It looks like you still need the Sync E box, but you don't have to install it on your camera and therefore less wire clutter. I use the track E as on camera mic recorder.
Good to know. I didn’t notice the difference in options when I looked 👍🏻 Thanks!
@@paulhuenefeld here's what they have on their website. I'm in the US. I haven't tested it yet but if the signal will be muted during recording then it's a bummer. Please be aware that the timecode output feature is not a complete replacement for a SYNC E timecode generator. Although we have tested this feature thouroghly, we can't guarantee that it works with all third party audio and video devices. Therefore we recommend a test including post production workflow before shooting. In the US purchased TRACK E devices, the headphone output is muted when recording audio. Therefore timecode output will also be disabled.
@@DmitriOcean Yeah, I think they are probably just covering themselves from people being angry if it doesn't work in their specific scenario. I have had zero problem running the Track E as a timecode generator, BUT I never use it to record audio and generate timecode at the same time. There have been a couple instances were I've used it with my Sony a7siii into the audio port. Before the most recent firmware for this camera that now gives you timecode through usb with an adapter!!! I would connect a scratch mic to the Track E and then route the audio output of the Track E as such: Timecode--Left Channel // Mic--Right Channel That gives me timecode audio that can be converted to metadata timecode later while also having that right channel as a scratch audio if I need it as a backup. NOW, with the long awaited firmware for the A7siii, I can just embed metadata timecode using the usb adapter and still keep 2 channels of audio!!!!!
@@paulhuenefeld I hear ya. I'm not a pro and still use a6500 which is a bit outdated but still a great camera. Currently I use sync e box and track e box mounted to the rig at the same time. I was hoping to eliminate the sync e box with this update, but no luck. I'll be selling the US unit and buy a European one. I love the product, but I hate those damn "patent infringements".
@@DmitriOcean Yes I'm with you on the patents! So frustrating! So, how are you using the Track E mounted on your camera rig? Are you not using it for a traditional LAV setup???
The tentacle prices on BHphoto are the following. Tentacle Sync TRACK E Pocket Audio Recorder with Lavalier Mic and Timecode Support, 349.99. Tentacle Sync TRACK E Pocket Audio Recorder Basic Box with Timecode Support (Recorder Unit Only) 249.99 Tentacle Sync Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black) 65 so if you buy them separately you save $35. Thats just confusing though.
Wow that is confusing! Prices are always changing and you never know why hahaha!
What is that case you have on the Osee Megamon?
It is the case that came with the monitor.
Where can we watch the finished video? Awesome BTS!
Thanks so much! You can watch it here on their website: ptelevation.com/about-us/
Well Done!
Thanks a ton!
It's great to see more channels like yours popping up in my suggested videos. Well done.
Thanks a ton!
Do you know if once you pair the sync e and track e. Or two track e units, do they auto pair and sync when you turn them on again? Can you just power them up and start recording? Or do you need to use the app every time to sync everything up?
Yes, I believe that you have re-sync the devices each time they are powered on.
I love this. As a fellow filmmaker myself, more times than not I walk away from a shoot with a list of things that could have been done differently or better. The struggle of feeling a little bit like a failure or fraud is real in those moments for me, and it's so encouraging when I find others that walk away with the same criticism of their work. We are not alone, and that's super important to remember!
Yes, so good! Thanks for the encouragement!
This is so good Paul 👏🏽
Thanks so much!
This is a really weird question, but what sort of orange crates are those? I’m trying to find something similar here in the UK, and I think I saw before that you carried a bunch of Amaran panels in one before.
Not a weird question! They are called Sidio Crate.
@@paulhuenefeld Thanks Paul - I'll probably struggle to find those in the UK, but at least I've a starting point. Love the channel!
Thanks! Yeah their website says American made, but I bet they'd ship to the UK?
Oil change required :-)
Good eye haha!
🤘🏾
🤘
Awesome Paul! You are a good (great) person! loved the video.
Thanks for the kind words Pete!
Finally after looking at hundreds of videos about the Track E someone finally answered my question about if the headphone port will send timecode audio. I've been debating on pulling the trigger on the Track E for that exact reason. Thank you so much for clarifying it.
So glad you have some clarity! Yeah so many of the videos are when it was first released, but the ability to output timecode came in a recent firmware update. Thanks!
@@paulhuenefeld you’re welcome. Love your video of the horse guy. Looks great. I know you kind of touched on battery life. Would it last 8 hours recording and time code sync? That’s probably the most I would use it for my work.
@@slcantu Thanks! It was so fun to just be creative with video again! I haven't done exact testing on the battery life to know, but I honestly wouldn't worry about an 8hr day with it.
@@paulhuenefeld thanks will be getting one or a couple lol
Great video! For me, my s1h & gh6 both take jam sync via the flash socket and I still have full audio via the mic jack. On the gh6 with the xlr1, I get 4 channels of audio (2 xlr and stereo mic jack) it turns into 24bit 96khz audio if needed plus the external timecode. I tried it on a shoot and thought my zoom f3 sounded better for sure in post but having the flexibility of baking in quality fast audio is helpful. I just wished Final Cut would add audio timecode read!!!!! That would make my life so much easier than going through the tentacle app. Usually for me it’s easier to embed the timecode and render new media since xml workflow has been bonkers for me 🤷🏻♂️ just takes a bit to render out new files but once in post it’s instant syncing!
Oh cool! I never knew that about Panasonic cameras being able to jam sync via the flash socket! Such a good idea! I have actually never worked in Final Cut Pro, but that limitation would make me want to take “Pro” out of the name hahaha
nice work Paul! The 70-200 will give you that f2.8 aperture....the 100-400 GM -- even though it's older, it is absolutely sharp and focuses quickly with current Sony bodies (haven't used it on the FX6 but know of others that do...)...
Yes, definitely learned that don't need 600mm haha! Yes, both of those lenses work great with the FX6 👏🏻 Thanks!
I'd love and option where they scrap the time code and added wireless mic capabilities to compete with the rodes wireless pro ii
Yes that would be super handy!
The whole idea of this product is to free filmmaker from wireless system shortcomings like loss of signal or frequency interference. I'd never go back to wireless mics.
thats nice, but sony and blackmagic? why?:?
Normally I would try to have all similar brand cameras to match the color, but I needed more cameras and had access to borrow the Blackmagic cameras. They worked out great because I needed the extra reach from the super35 sensors!
