@@luisyana9295 Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for commenting 😊

Sweet! Seems like a definitely no-brainer. How do you like it so far? Thanks for commenting!

Yes, apologies! You tap the Gear icon in the top right. We included a little on-screen text in the video, but sorry for the confusion. Hope it was helpful otherwise and thanks for commenting!

Happy to help! Back when we were looking for the answer I couldn't stand how long some people took to get to the point. Glad you found it helpful and thanks for commenting! 😊

@@LostieTrekieTechie You can still load this up with anything you want for offline listening, including your entire iTunes Library 🤩 But yes, you have to use Bluetooth headphones with it

Yep, it is. The tinyPod is basically a case that you put an Apple Watch into to transform it into an iPod. It's a really good way to breathe life into an old Apple Watch.

@@MartinSchabbauer Thanks for commenting! So glad you found it helpful! If there’s anything else you’d like to see us cover in future, just let us know

Thanks for commenting 😊 We haven't personally tried creating a daisy chain, but it is an interesting idea. Are you saying that you'd have the TS3 plugged in to your computer, run that over to the TBT4 with all your peripherals plugged in there, and then try using the Docking Station Utility to eject everything? Just trying to picture the setup and functionality you have in mind. Let us know!

@@messengerbagmedia Yes, that is what I am suggesting as a set up. I was thinking of buying a used TBT4 and trying this out. But after reading about the issues people are having with the TBT4, I think I am going to pass on it for now. I have had great experoiences with Caldigit products but it sounds like TB4 may present some hardware/software issues and I am guessing the company is now devoting most of its resources on TB5 products.

@@mattbirnbaum8964 What issues have you heard of with the TBT4? Would be curious to know 😊 But yes, holding out to the TS5, especially if you currently have a TS3 makes total sense!

Yes, it is certainly very confusing. Honestly it's the weirdest difference/non-difference I've ever come across. That said, we have been using both at MBM and have encountered no issues! Thanks for commenting!

@@unwrittensparkle You’ll have a far higher resolution image with the R5 Mark II than you will with the R6 Mark II. It’s 45MP for the R5 and 21 for R6, so that resolution can be useful if you ever need to crop further in, or if the images will be blown up very large. That said, the R6 Mark II does have better low light performance. We’ve used ours for photographs (not just exclusively video) and have been very pleased. You won’t go wrong with the R6 Mark II and the savings are certainly large between the two, but you may want the extra resolution. Oh, and one final thing to mention, the R6 Mark II has 2 SD card slots and the R5 Mark II has 1 CFexpress slot and 1 SD card slot. They can both write to multiple cards, but if you’d find managing two different types of cards would be a pain, that may be something to keep in mind too. Hopefully that helps and thanks for commenting!

@@messengerbagmedia It was really helpful - thank you! But I still didn't buy it. It's so difficult to decide. I'm currently working with the 6D + 5D IV (which has two different card slots as well) and I want the new camera to be better or the same level as the 5D IV. I'm a bit worried, that I will lose depth in my pictures with the R6 II hence the lower resolution. I have to sleep on it I guess.

@ Hmm have you had a preference or regret between your 6D and 5D? If not, I imagine you’ll feel roughly the same here. The quality of what either of these newer cameras captures is really amazing and you will absolutely notice a difference from your previous cameras stepping up to either the R5 or R6.

@@augustlikestolaugh Thanks for commenting! Glad you found our video helpful. I think that sounds like a great choice and saving the extra money on the Thunderbolt 4 Pro Dock seems like a good choice. As for Thunderbolt 5, while it does have far more speed than Thunderbolt 4, unless you are using absolute top of the line SSDs or equipment that needs all of the bandwidth, then you should be fine. It will probably be several years until it full realization of those speeds will hit the consumer or pro-sumer market. With what you’re hooking up, I think you should be totally good for several years, maybe even a decade. Hope that’s helpful 😊

@ Thank you for taking time and your informative answer, I finally see an end to my dock-quest 🤩 Seeing a lot of people talking about Ivanky Fusion Dock Max saying it’s good, fast and reliable? Any input regarding this dock? Ivanky and Caldigit seem to be equivalent in comparison. I would also like to say that I have no experience with docking stations hence my questions. I have previously managed with a USB hub connected to an iMac 🙂

@ Happy to help! I haven’t used the Ivanky FusionDock Max, but looking at it and the specs there are a couple of things to note…that hub does have HDMI ports on it, which the CalDigit does not, so if hooking up monitors or devices with HDMI is important to you, then it would certainly be easier with the Ivanky. But it seems they’re only HDMI output, not input. It does also have a couple of extra ports compared to the CalDigit, but it does cost about $150-200 more. Also, the Ivanky does not seem to be compatible with PCs at all; Mac only (with M-series chip). Whereas the CalDigit can work with Mac, PC, and even tablets so long as they have a Thunderbolt port. In my opinion, the CalDigit TBT4 is a great choice, but if you need the extra ports of the Ivanky and feel it’s worth the extra money, that’s certainly for you to decide and I can’t imagine it’ll be a bad choice 😊

@ Again thank for great informative answer! About hdmi I think DisplayPort would be a better choice so no need for those ports. One thing that worries me when it comes to docks is heat. Reading a lot of reviews about the Ivanky getting really hot even at night when it’s not used. Of course there will be heat, it’s electronics but don’t think I’ll push it that hard, only worried about safety. Also I have a bad gut feeling about Ivanky because it seems they’ve handed out plenty of fusionsdocks for reviewers who say it’s the best most reliable dock for Mac. They are also very generous with discounts making the dock almost 100$ cheaper. Well it’s all business I guess but makes you wonder 😁 Maybe I should stick with Caldigit, seems like a solid dock!

@ Yep, the CalDigit has been solid for me since I first got it in 2022 and then the new TBT4 we got for Adam recently has been doing great. It does remain “warm” but never concerningly hot. That said, it’s doing a lot of IO, so it is understandable if they heat up. I can’t speak to the Ivanky, but the CalDigit has done a good job with heat dissipation. Let us know how your setup goes once you’ve got it 😊

Depends on the project that is being used. Premiere Pro mainly, but sometimes we'll use Audition, or Michael will even use Final Cut Pro as he's been using it for years. Are you looking for specific use cases? We're happy to give extra feedback. Thanks for commenting!

Yes, the R6 Mark II is definite big upgrade over the original. The R5 Mark II certainly adds some great features, but for anyone who owns an original R5 I don't know if it's worth the additional money to upgrade unless you have need of some of the specific new features. Thanks so much for commenting and glad to hear you're liking your setup!

Saving extra money for me! Also waiting for TS5 / TBT5, I hope it is announced soon, and I get it or TBT4 drops price even more ;)

@jakmazdev Saving extra money is always nice and in this case I really think it’s a bit of a no brainer too! Curious to see if/when a TS5 will happen. That said, I think it’ll be a good long while until there’s enough external hardware that someone would be going beyond the bandwidth that Thunderbolt 4 currently provides, let alone what Thunderbolt 5 does. Still an exciting new standard. Thanks for commenting! 😊

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thanks for commenting! You should be able to connect, as again, the RC2 is basically just an Android phone running the DJI Fly app. In fact, the b-roll we used of me connecting to WiFi in this video was in a Holiday Inn Express while we were on the road filming for a client. We were easily able to connect to that network, so I imagine it should be the same for other hotels. Hope that helps! 😊

@@amandaparotte Thanks for the comment! You’ll notice a significant upgrade when moving from the 5D Mark III to either the R6 Mark II or the R5 Mark II. One of the biggest questions for you would be around price. The price difference between the two models is substantial, but if that doesn’t factor in, then you can definitely go with the R5 Mark II and enjoy the stacked sensor. That said, although it offers dual slots 1 is CFexpress and the other is SD; whereas on the R6 Mark II both slots are SD (CFexpress is faster, but just making the point that it’s not 2 of the same). I don’t think you’ll go wrong or feel that you’re not able to capture what you’re looking for with the R6 Mark II, though. So if you’d be looking to save a bit of money then choosing the R6 will not be a choice you regret. Also, moving from DSLR to mirrorless, don’t forget to purchase the lens adapter for your EF lenses. They sell an additional adapter that also comes with a new function ring, if that’s useful for you, or you can stick to the standard one. Hope that helps and let me know if you’ve got any more questions 😊

Thanks so much for commenting! The TBT4 Dock and the TS4 can both support Dual Screens Displays for the M1/M2/M3/M4 Pro, M1/M2/M3/M4 Max, M1/M2 Ultra. However, if you have a MacBook Air with a base M1 or M2 it cannot do dual displays; the base M3 can do dual displays but only if the laptop lid is closed (it will stop displaying to the built in screen). Hope that helps!

@messengerbagmedia thanks for the reply 👍🏻👍🏻

Hey there, yes, according to the box specs it will work with Windows 10 (20H2) or above with a Thunderbolt 3/4 port, a Windows Tablet with either Thunderbolt or USB-C port or a Chromebook with USB4. That said, neither of us have a Windows computer so we can't confirm this from experience. It may seem odd buying it from Apple and then using it on a Windows computer, but that's probably the easiest way to go about it and they have the simplest return policy. Thanks for commenting and hope that's helpful!

@@messengerbagmedia Thank you so much for the quick reply! 😂 As you probably know, in Canada, shopping at the Apple Store is the easiest and most affordable way to get the CalDigit dock. I also reached out to CalDigit, and they were super helpful! They confirmed that the Thunderbolt 4 Pro Dock will work with compatible Windows computers (like USB 3.2 Gen 1, Thunderbolt 3, and Thunderbolt 4). Since we have both a Mac and a Windows setup at home, we’re really hoping it’ll work seamlessly with both. Thanks again for everything-keep up the fantastic work!

@@wolfvillebythepark...finer1075 Awesome, glad to hear it! Hope the setup works out; that would certainly make things easier for you! And thanks for the kind words 😊

Couldn't agree more! It's definitely strange that they don't have the support there yet, especially given that they've talked about how it's on the horizon and the box even says it supports it. Hopefully it will come at some point soon. That said, as a docking station it's still terrific and I'd probably rather have the cost savings.

@ I just made a script to eject my drives, I can easily make that into a shortcut and voila, I too have the functionality of the docking utility working on the cheaper model 😂😂

Very cool! What a smart workaround. You'd think as an interim solution CalDigit might even offer steps on how to do that themselves 🤣

@@rmsyster Hey there, thanks for your comment! Yes, the SuperDrive is a standalone CD drive that you can plug in to your computer if you still need to use CDs or DVDs. I imagine it’s not a big use case for most people. To be honest, I haven’t found any really difference between the TS4 and the TBT4 aside from the Docking Station Utility to eject all the drives at once. You can also get around this very easily by highlighting all the drives on your Desktop and pressing Command+E and it will eject everything you highlighted. CalDigit does also say that this support is coming, so to be honest I think you are definitely fine to stick with the TBT4. We’ve also got a full review of both docks coming out on Tuesday, so stay tuned for that. In terms of music production, either model will be great, so I’d probably recommend sticking with the Pro and saving the extra money (as we own both and don’t notice any difference). Thanks again for commenting and let us know if you’ve got any other questions 😊

Thanks so much for the comment! Either the TS4 or TBT4 will do you well for sure. It really is the question of whether you want the Eject Utility and SuperDrive support already available. We've also got a full review of both devices coming out next Tuesday, so stay tuned for that! As for using it with music production and future proofing, the 40Gbps speeds of Thunderbolt 4 are definitely more than capable for what you're looking for. So long as any peripherals that you're plugging in are supported by the available ports, then you should be good to go. We use both the TBT4 and TS4 for editing multi-camera 4K content without creating proxies and we don't experience any lag or delay. The most important thing that you need to support the capabilities of the docks are the proper speed cables to plug in to your devices. So don't use just any old USB-C or USB-A cable, you'll want to ensure they provide 10Gbps speeds, so that you're using all of the bandwidth and speed you're paying for with the CalDigit. Hope that's helpful! If you've got more specifics, we're happy to elaborate! :-)

@@Mocha_Group Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊

@@vikram24Rider There are lots of combinations you can buy for the drone, but the combination we bought in Canada was sold at Costco and was $1299 CAD. Costco in the US sells a version as well, but it does not come with the good controller. Best Buy US sells a similar combo for $1159 USD, so with the exchange rate the Costco Canada combo is actually the best value. Hope that helps. Thanks for commenting 😊

@@trym2121 Absolutely! But for anyone in the market for the camera right now, it’s a very good price. Thanks for the comment 😊

Sorry, on the video we included a mention that it's actually the Gear icon in the top right corner that then brings you to the WiFi network selection. Hope that helps!

@@messengerbagmedia , I don't see a gear icon. My RC2 screen looks nothing like yours does.

@ Can you include a link to a screenshot or photo of your screen? We’re happy to help troubleshoot! Try powering on the RC2 without the drone being on, as it may be auto-connecting to the drone and bringing you into a different set of menus.

@@adotwhite Seems like a great choice! We’ll probably be sticking with ours for a while, too. Thanks so much for your comment 😊

@@presise1620 Thanks for commenting! Didn’t realize the R5 Mark II had consistent overheating issues. What modes was it giving you issues in?

Ok, Then save up for it or buy it.

Thanks so much for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the video and are loving your Mini 4 Pro, as well 😊

Hmm really interesting questions! It looks like there are some rumours of the R6 Mark III potentially coming out near the end of 2024, but given where we are now, it seems like they're shifting to a Q1 2025 release (again, rumours; grain of salt). That said, if you feel you can hold off making a purchase for a couple more months still, then you could have the opportunity to either get a brand new R6 Mark III or to potentially get the R6 Mark II at a heavily discounted price. I believe the R5 Mark II has improved on low light performance compared to the original, but I believe the R6 Mark II is still the best for low light. Hope all of this is helpful! We've also included a couple links to the rumour posts we've read about. Thanks again for commenting and let us know what you decide to do! 😊 Rumours: www.canonrumors.com/canon-eos-r6-mark-iii-prototypes-are-in-the-wild/ Rumoured specs: www.canonrumors.com/rumored-r6-mark-iii-specifications/

For wedding and event photography R6 mark ii would be great and it truly is better with low light compared to the R5 ii. I waited for R5 ii but then the wait was so long that I went for R6 ii and really enjoy the camera. I recently bought the R5ii which I use for wildlife because of its pre capture and higher bit depth even with electronic shutter.

@@kstotlani ah....so if I'm shooting food and potentially expanding into people...I feel so torn! I have had my old DSLR for 15 years! so I know the next body I buy I'll have for a very very long time

The R6 Mark II could be the middle ground for you. That said, there are rumours of the R6 Mark III being announced in Q1 2025, as we mentioned, so also something to consider. There isn't an easy choice, but I think you'll be satisfied no matter what you choose!

@@messengerbagmedia Yea, but see I waited for the r5 mark ii that kept getting delayed and delayed, so I know that r6 mark iii isn not coming out when they say lol. But now that I've waited 2 extra years than I should have....I'm down to the wire....yes no easy decision and I'm sure it will be the wrong one that I end up choosing

Yes, the Mini 4 Pro supports FPV mode. We haven't utilized that yet in any of our videos, but it's definitely something we can explore in a future video! Thanks for your comment!

It doesn't have the complete manual fpv experience, but yes it does feature fpv by locking the camera

Yes, you'll definitely want to check and see whether it has the remote with or without the screen. There is probably a cost differential there as well, but worth noting. We'd definitely recommend getting the remote with the screen!

Yes, sorry, that is a good thing to clarify for any viewers! You must use a remote controller in some capacity, but we're bigger fans of having the screen being built right in and not worrying about draining battery life on the phone. Thanks so much for your comment! Much appreciated 😊

@ yes, I initially bought it with the RC-N2 but ended up buying the RC2 off of eBay for the convenience.

@@SkyReelsFilmsim gonna do the same but geez they’re expensive

It's definitely an expensive item; not for everyone, but definitely does offer several great features. Thanks so much for your comment! 😊

Very interesting; thanks for sharing! That's certainly surprising to hear. Did you have an original R5 previously too? Perhaps your sensor may need to be cleaned too?
