    Answers to questions you might have:
    - i filmed this video with Sony Rx100v
    - I usually use autofocus, not manual focus, on the gimbal
    - I leave IBIS on when I'm using a gimbal
    - I don’t have Zhiyun Crane 2 yet but there’s no reason not to upgrade, so I include v2 in the kit link
    - I have not used the Crane M and I don't know anything about it
    - I have not used Ronin, Feyu, etc
    - I use EOSHD picture profile on a6500. You have to buy it from www.eoshd.com

    What I appreciate is you thoroughly use the gear you have and you produce incredible content from them. Many people seem to have all the different cameras but don't actually do much with them, just review them.

    Instead of buying the Sony A6500 I used my money to build a time machine. Now I own the Sony A7S CXXIV. Couldn't be happier!

    I just purchased my a6500 a few weeks ago and my lenses & crane are on its way! I'm really thankful for the videos you're making - it really validates my investment in this equipment! Keep these videos coming! I'm learning so much!

    Man, I'm happy to see the first three lenses you present are exactly the ones I have bought and use. And I love them, love the 35 mm the most, pictures are awesome. And the 18-105 mm is better than I thought it'd be, love the fact that it doesn't change length when zooming, it's perfect on a gimbal.

    @Ride_XP 7 років тому

    Hey Brandon! Love all your vids, from your films to your vlog/review content. Thanks for this one, it was pretty helpful! Just to add, I've actually been able to balance and use an A7SII with the 24-240 and the Rokinon/Samyang 35mm f/1.4 on the Zhiyun Crane V2, but I do have to be extra careful to prevent significant camera shake. But definitely using the 18-105 I think would be a better option for gimbal work so I might actually use that instead, in crop mode, so I'm not stuck on one focal length.

    Oh my good god! I have you're exact kit that you listed in you're description... Literally everything identical!! Minus the 18-105mm E is the only thing I don't have but hey! You're right man the Zhiyun Crane with the 6500/6300 with that 10-18 F4 or the 35 F1.8 is just a killer set up!! I even mount the rode mic on top when using the gimbal once in a while cause you know.. what the hell lol

    So comprehensive and informative. Thanks a lot. Also, thinking of getting the Small HD Focus as an on camera monitor for bright daylight shooting when the A6500s lcd really doesn't perform so well. Plus if you shoot in log profiles you can overlay LUTs to get a better idea of what your final image will be. And it has audio monitoring and input and output audio jacks (plus loads of other features)

    Hi Brandon, thanks for putting this together! Great info on a very popular camera.
    RE: audio recording, I've had great success with the new Tascam DR-10L, which is basically a headless Zoom H1 or Sony 712. My favorite feature is the safety track, meaning it will record at a normal volume, and simultaneously at -6DB in case the subject gets unexpectedly loud. It's small, unobtrusive, and the included lav mic isn't bad at all.
    Anyway, just my $0.02. Thanks again!
