Thanks for sharing, it means a lot to us! Appreciate that!🙌
Love love love these videos, the learning, the quality and best of all, the channel shares all the magic that goes on to create them. They are just an absolute pleasure to watch. Thanks Caleb
I love the F22 system, used some of it for my first rig build last year. I ended up building a monster rig for my current client work as I'm a one man band, and it definitely makes reconfiguring things so easy.
Happy to see love for the Kessler Kwik plate; I recognized it immediately. Very solid piece of kit!
Great video Caleb! love the gear series!
Just got the stand and am stoked!
I went out and purchased the Ulanzi system when I discovered Caleb for the very first time, and have used these for absolutely everything. It is brilliant, and literally every piece of kit I have has this system attached enabling me to move things around easily, even on the GearTree I use all without screwing a single bolt on or off !! Thanks Caleb ! I do want that plate though so yet again you’ve cost me money Caleb but I’ll forgive you :-)
Caleb, your ability to consistently produce high quality, high value content never ceases to amaze me. Great timing too. I was just thinking about getting an external monitor lol!
Thanks Joey! Means a lot man!
Would advise to read the comments in this thread and any unbiased reviews if you consider the Hollyland M1 after watching this video.
THE BEST UA-camR BUILDING CINEMA RIG'S, SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE... WITHOUT A TON OF ACCESSORIES LIKE ALL THE OTHERS DO.
Looks like everyone is downsizing! Now that I find myself traveling a lot more often, I’m currently building out my travel cine kit. So from a beefed up S1H + Ninja V + Mirage VND rig, I’ll now be packing the S5 iix + RS 3 Mini + Mavic Mini 3 Pro + Lumix f1.8 primes.
In the beginning I didn't care how big, now I want it as small and LIGHT as possible. Also, the less distracting, the better!
Agree
Ty for teaching!!
Clear feature pocket cinema camera 😊
This is next generation 👍🏼
Thanks for your beautiful video🙏🏼
Caleb you always come up with cool ideas
I love this!
The problem with most of these ‘mini rigs’ that I see suggested on UA-cam is that the suggestions seem to totally ignore sound. Do all of you record sound externally? Are you only shooting B-roll? Where’s your sound?
External. If you want a minimal setup externally recording into a dji mic is so simple and sound quality is amazing.
I was looking into right angle HDMI cables for my Z CAM and bam you show one of Kondor Blue's new products, can't wait
❤ cool setup
That look’s cool
After filming a week long music festival, i learnt the vauable lesson of the smaller the setup the better. 👍
Angled HDMI!!! About time!🎉
Sensational video. 😊
Thanks!
Always delivering good content, thank you! And the Fx30 is nice, better thant Canon R7 for video, IMO. Looking forward for sony release something with a EVF like an a7000 or so
Caleb, I have checked your site many times, hoping to find you've creatd a guide (with LUTs) for the Sigma FP. I can't be the only oe hoping you'll take another look at that brilliant little camera.
You are the sole reason my Amazon wishlist is as ridiculous as it is. Appreciate you.
So informative
Thanks!
Can't seem to find an answer to whether those falcam rails serve as standard nato rails too? Or are they incompatible with nato clamps?
thoughtful design. smallrig / kondor blue should hire you as a consultant
I really liked the Ulanzi system but it's rather expensive and I already have a smallrig big cage for xt4 + top handle with record button. I found a very cheap new smallrig small cage so I went for it.
But the Ulanzi one still interests me since you did your video on the F22 system.
Very nice
Dude, you sold me on two products. The 18-55 Sigma and the OSEE T5! Thank you.
Fab video again! Can you do an updated tube light video? Looking for something to light my space when I throw my darts and give it some jazz!
waiting for the Sony FX3 guide!
What’s the best way to mount the transmitter to the camera? Also great video, love the simple focus pulling rig.
Loved the video!! I feel there are some audio nuances u can look into... This video in particular was a little on the quieter side & lot of s sounds giving off weird sibilance...
Super cool set up. Im quite a beginner with all of this camera stuff and I was wondering why would I need a monitor? Is it just for easier viewing or are there other things that monitors do that are generally helpful besides the LUT stuff you mentioned in the video.
The FX30 is the GH4 of the modern era, it’s the camera that everyone universally agrees is THE camera for social media content creators and has every feature you’d want a damn good price point. Was very happy with my GH4 and so far I am very happy with my FX30
There are better cameras out there
@@Yupthereitism obviously? There’s no such thing as the BEST CAMERA EVER, especially not for under $2,000.
Thanks for the great video again. May I ask what follow focus you were showing in the video?
I hope the hybrid body of the fx30 is coming soon.
Thanks for the interesting video. With regard to the Hollyland M1, I ended up returning it. First of all, the system has quite some lag even if directly connected via an HDMI cable (your follow focus system would be frustrating to use / borderline unusable in any configuration). Secondly I had quality issues with this system, whereby I ended up returning 2 of the monitors which started to flicker heavily and were clearly defective. Furthermore, the monitor lost its settings when restarted, which is also frustrating. It is a nice design and concept, which I really wanted to love, but was disappointed in. Needs a version 2 which addresses these issues.
I really like the Kessler arca Swiss plates too. In Europe those are quite difficult to get, but the brand ProAim makes similar plates under part numbers BP213 (short) and BP214 (long) and do ship in Europe from Belgium. They don't make a nice alternative to the Kessler Kwik Release Receiver V2.
Great video mate just one question. What is the lens filter adapter whch allows you to use 77mm filters on this lens with 55mm filter size?
For the focus pulling situation, how's the lag?
Uuh ... Morphing ... Nice.
Haven't seen that in a while.
Great video Caleb! My two cents regarding M1 Mars, since I have it. and was hyped when buying it. 1. Huge lag (2-3 frames) comparing to what you see on camera viefinder. Both SDI and HDMI the same lag. 2. Focus peaking is pretty useless on this monitor - barely see anything. 3. battery life 3 x times shorter than Shinobi 5". 4. Loud fan (but You can turn it off) 5. Heavier than Shinobi 5". 5. It has long 30 seconds booting time (Shinobi 8 sec.) 6. No "sleep mode", you can only lock the screen but it's always on draining battery (Shinobi turn off the screen). 7. Final flaw - my unit after 1 month started to flicker occasionally. In my opinion, buy this monitor only if you will use TX/RX function all the time. As a standalone monitor it is not actually that good at all...
I had the exact same experience, and ended up returning 2 of the monitors because they started to flicker and continued to flicker. While I wanted to love this system, as I really like the concept, it didn't work out for me. And the lag, even over an HDMI cable is a factor to consider. If used as a client monitor or monitoring while filming yourself, it's fine, but for pulling focus I think you only end up pulling you hair out.
You need to revisit the Sigma FP with firmware 5.
Please make a vertical rig video for shooting Reels/Tiktoks
What about audio? Love the idea of the magnetic filters been trying to find something like this so super happy I stopped by,
Oh nvm it is the Xume - which are great though disconntinued - at least here in the UK wished I could get em
I wonder if you have any suggestions for a good tripod? It has to go under 30 in because I'm a mechanic filming cars that are only jacked up high enough to get the wheels off. The tripod has to hold a black magic pocket 4K.
Question for any magnetic ring adapter.
Putting 1 ring on the lens and another on the filter... would that introduce vignetting?
I guess it depends on how wide the lens is and how far the adapter puts the ring.
It's for the Panasonic 12-35 MFT lens.
Caleb! Where Sound ;) an Zoom F3 would Look good here. Is there a way to trigger recording sound when starting Video ;). Good Video!
As usual, a no nonsense video. Thanks Caleb! Those Magnetic Filter adapters are sweet!
THanks Made!
Can you do a s5 mark II build? debating on s5 II or fx30 because theyre priced pretty close. What would you suggest.
I watch your current videos and from 5 year ago. They are all so incredible and current to this day. Your contributions are very good! Greeting from Arg 🧉
I just hope to make a video one day that looks as good as any of yours 😂
Any chance you (or someone you know/recommend) sells the battery adapters mentioned? I’m hoping to convert my monitor’s battery to the same type as my camera and just use the NP-FZ100s going forward.
good job Kondor Blue, much appreciated for having taking my recommendation (and probably others') about providing angled cables (via Gerald Undone's video a few months back). when in spring can we expect them to be available?
Thanks for Your valuable infos. Does the connector of the Grip fit to Nato Rails? And are the other pieces compatible to Arca Swiss?
Get the SmallRig 3913 plate instead for the onion to retract the feet
Can you please tell us how you do those morphing transitions?!!!
How would you attach a wireless mic to a set up like this? Isn’t the hot shoe being used by the handle?
how convenient is it for stills?
Hii Are you Geniues , You provide Very Very Informational video that help me A lot , So I want to Say Thank you 😀❤️
Thanks ITX! Means a lot!
@@dslrvideoshooter you Are welcomed Big Brother , And your Videos means to me Alot ❤️
Is there a reason you’re not using an HLG to Rec709 workflow?
That "Kessler" quick plate ? Where do I find those ? Thank you
@dslrvideoshooter @Caleb do you know if the Falcam F22 Three-Position Quick Release Plate can work with the Falcam side handle? the 5 position quick release is no longer available on amazon or Bnh.
Are you willing to share anything about how you accomplish the sort of "morphing" transitions between different camera configurations? I've noticed them in several of your videos and they're a really nice touch. I understand if you feel they're a "signature" that you'd rather keep secret.
I feel like I've seen similar things from AI models where faces morph appearances seamlessly, but I'm guessing it's something simpler. I'm hoping it's something that might be possible to approximate as a live scene transition in OBS to "morph" between math steps while I'm tutoring.
Bro here it is
ua-cam.com/video/KRlasgqBq6k/v-deo.html
I did a video on it: ua-cam.com/video/KRlasgqBq6k/v-deo.html
@@dslrvideoshooter Thanks so much! I should have thought to search your oeuvre before asking.
So I was half right: it's just a built-in transition, not AI magicks. But also half wrong: it's on top of flawlessly synced robot footage. Still, within reach for many. If only I could justify some motion control gear...
@@attaboyBrad No sweat! You can also use static shots, cut them, add the transitions, group the shots (compound clip in FCP) then animate a slow zoom or fake pan and bam! You've got some movement.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Is there a filter ring attached to the Sigma lens? 🤔
I need a Minimal rig for my a7S3, thx
Can you please share a similar cinema rig for a Panasonic GH5?
Do you use the XLR handle?
Can smallrig please make a cage for the portleys evf ?
I am from Madrid, Spain. how can I get those accessories. I am going to buy LUMIX S5-!! Will u pls review about that.
can i ask the transition name with the gears on the first video?
We really need a solid evf which we can press our head against …
Unfortunately as of right now the Fx30 (body only) is hard to find :/
Any suggestions for vertical use on a tripod without a cage?
Perhaps look into the Silence Corner Atoll S Rotating Camera Collar, or for Sony E-mount the SmallRig Rotatable Horizontal-to-Vertical Mount Plate Kit. These mount around the lens barrel and do not require a camera cage. Chris Brockhurst made a video on the Atoll S on the 20th of February 2023 here on UA-cam.
What HDMI cable are you using???
That would be sweet to shoot music videos
Is there a Samsung SSD adapter for this rig?
May I ask what adapter you use to connect focus controller to the monitor?
It is wireless and does not connect to the monitor.
How can i put a top plate in a sony a7cr without a cage ?
I don’t like cages basically !
Hats off to anyone that can work with the Hollyland M1. Way too much lag for me.
How much is the latency? Like 80 ms?
Great ! But isn't audio the most important part of a documentary film ? 😅
How do u capture audio
😎 G E N I U S 😎
By the way, there's a new model, the Osee T5 Plus, 1000nits.
im getting major noise issues in the fx30, tips?
expose properly and light your scenes ;)
@@_rhapsodist right! I'm confident doing that in a studio setting with slog3. its that way even without lifting in a way the a7siii isnt (both are set to proper base iso)
What's that tripod, chief?
How did you make your false color LUT?
color map in photoshop
Crap tons of work ha! Not as easy as I first thought.
@@dslrvideoshooter would love to see one for Canon the Log profiles as well
where are the cables ?
what about audio?
Is there such a thing as a external monitor that has touch focusing enable… in sum communicates with cam with same options as the screen of the cam?
No, that does not exist for most cameras. Port Keys and SmallHD make certain types of monitors which allow control over certain types of cameras. I guess there is no uniform control system for cameras, so it would be really hard to make monitors which are compatible with multiple camera brands, and I am not sure whether e.g. HDMI would allow for such a data exchange or whether it requires a separate connection. Would be very nice to have indeed!
@@Edwin-- thanks for much for the explanation ive been wondering for a while
@@SalsaBailaProductions I am not sure what brand you shoot, but for some quite nice phone apps are available which do allow you to control your camera over Bluetooth and to monitor the screen. If you shoot Sony, the best app is "Monitor+". Chris Brockurst made a nice video about it here on UA-cam called "Sony Camera? you NEED to try this app (remote control + monitoring tools)" if you're interested. I hope that in the future we'll get our wish, full camera control with every monitor as I quite like the idea too.
Hey Caleb great video! Is the FX 30 10 bit?
Yes is it is.
Perhaps this particular rig is good for tall people, but maybe not short shooters.
Why is that cable not purple????!!!!!! What a shame!
If only cameras and accessories were wireless 🤣
Not sure what's "cinema" about this setup?
First
🥇🥇🥇🏆🥇🥇🥇
When is some one going to make a Parfocal Lens with power Zoom and make these Good at video DSLR types Really GREAT VIDEO cameras. It's the (Glass) Lens that is the difference between good and Great. Some DSLR Lenses are Good at AUTO FOCUS Some not so good. NONE are any good for Videoing Model AirPlanes against a Gray Cloudy Sky or Completely Blue Sony Sky. So the best way is to use a Parfocal Lens Set at Full Zoom & Focused at Infinity then set to Manual focus. Result one can POWER ZOOM from infinity (Full Zoom) to about 15' and every thing is in Perfect focus. NO HUNTING EVER because Auto Focus is TURNED OFF and U still have full zoom capability/
That would be rad especially with the little toggle on the FX30!
