    i wish you lighted up some more things with it just as an example. could not figure out what it is capable of after watching the video

    Buddy I love how much more production value your putting into these! Especially the crazy way the spot turreted up like a sci-Fi weapon and turned itself on… How did you pull that one off?!????

    You're right about me ordering my 60d and2 60x's.. however they have been on backorder for a couple months now. 60d is set for mid July and 60d will be available mid August.

    • @ScottBalkum
      @ScottBalkum  3 роки тому +2

      There are several places that have them in stock. I am guessing you ordered from B&H or another large place. Give Hot Rod Cameras a call.

      I love B&H. They are a great company. But, everyone loves them too. They get an overwhelming number of orders for gear. People end up waiting a long time.

    As far as comparing this to the big brother, if I had money for both setups what do you see the 60+mini brings that is better or unique that the bigger one fails at. Of course besides the fact that I would need to buy both lens for the bigger spotlight.

    • @ScottBalkum
      @ScottBalkum  3 роки тому +1

      Think of the mini zoom as an accent sized light. When you want to throw a splash of texture in a smaller area, or just provide a little streak across your actors eyes. Each has their place. The mini zoom is capable but it can’t compete with the brightness of the 300D or X.

      @evan_stellmach 3 роки тому

      @@ScottBalkum would you say on the lower settings the big spotlight can do everything that the mini can do. Or just because of the size you can’t get as fine tune of a light?

      @ScottBalkum  3 роки тому

      @@evan_stellmach in theory yes. But there is a higher sharpness with the mini zoom over the spotlight.

    If it can be used with 120d or 300d then it would be a better value. Otherwise there’s a lot of similar gobo fixture options for 1/3 its price

    • @ScottBalkum
      @ScottBalkum  3 роки тому +1

      Yea it can’t be used in those. Basically they built a zoom camera lens. Just like on cameras, an S35 lens can’t be used in a full frame sensor. Same here. It was designed to be used in the led emitter sized with the 60D. They already make one for the 300d.

      @@ScottBalkum My problem is the 30degree ! I got the 36degree spotlight and I rarely need to get closer for a narrower beam(I got the iris and it not installed yet), I most often need to get further, but then, that mean you can't have as much restriction in the path of that beam.
