The heavy tripod that I carry during my Himalayan treks every year. I offload it on a mule to carry my backpack but carry the 8-10 kgs camera gear myself. But climbing up and down the mountains is a pain with the camera gear.
When I bought this cart I had only seen it used for audio folks. I got it for use at work (expensed it) and its a godsend for moving around lights, stands, and boxes of random stuff. Plus I stuck a power strip to the underside of the main surface and plug in all the chargers. Then when I get back to the desk or to where ever I am filming in the office, I plug in 1 cable and I am done. With it, my desk area is almost organized.
Totally agree with getting a cart, especially on a seemingly easy talking head shoot I end up bringing breefy tripod, panel LEDS and C Stands and as I'm finding out an additional monitor for the client is becoming essential as they're becoming more and more aware of how they want to look on screen.
Man you keep that cart CLEAN! I just picked one up today and plan to keep mine as clean as you. Great take on the typical whats in my camera bag video!
Chris. Chris! CHRIS! This episode was the bomb! I loved it so much. It's so refreshing to hear about studio gear, why you have it, the pitfalls of not using it (sandbag), and just giving us a sense of how long it took you to round out your kit. Love it. Cheers pal - more of this.
I really recommend getting a cart! I have back issues so I got a cart to carry all my equipment. It has made things so easy since then!! And it also looks really neat and professional!
Hey Chris! Great video with nice tips. Got a question for you: What's the bag you use that slides into the cart and carries the c-stands? I was hoping that it would be mentioned in the video ;)
Love that this is not another “what’s in my camera bag” video! Lol Also love that this talks about what you need for a bigger production setup. Thank you!!!
I love the gear episodes. Very educational and inspiring. Help me focus my acquisitions in the right direction. Thanks. I just last week figured out I needed a cart. Then this. Boom!
Hey Chris! Very fun video today! I always always always enjoy seeing what people have for gear! I love seeing how you put your unique style on everything as well. The biggest piece of gear I own is my Canon 5D IV! And I would love to get the 1DX some day! You are creeping up to 100K very quickly! I'm so excited to see you progress as an artist :)
Thank you for the video Chris. Just a question, at what point do you justify to invest money in all this gear, which being upgraded with speed of light and not just rent what you need and bill the client? Also if you don't have a c-stand, it will not look like a professional shoot?
2 things. I HATE RENTING - I value you my time and going to the place to pick things up and drop things off bothers me when I can purchase an item use it for a few years and then sell it for half the value. The frequency of shoots is important. We have enough shoots to justify. Sometimes I rent my gear out personally - so that pays for the item. NOO you don't need a c-stand, but I find them safer and safety is HUGE FOR ME. Sooo that's my two centsss
I was joking about C-stand. It just was funny the way you said, that C-stand will make you look like a professional. On a serious note, it would've been useful if you would have covered the insurance aspect of photography and production as there is still a chance for c-stand to fall and break gear ;)
Peter Mckinnon got me hooked up with Epidemic Sound. You've got me signed up for Skillshare, I better hurry and unsubscribe from Matti before I go broke! Thanks guys your awesome getting me to the next level! -Will
Hey! Question for anyone if they can answer. I have been into automotive photography for a little while and I am looking to upgrade some of my gear. I have been rocking a Canon T6 with two kit lenses and the nifty fifty (so a pretty inexpensive setup). I feel like my T6 has a few issues that are holding me back a little bit. The biggest things are the autofocus and frames per second are abysmal! Aside from that it is missing a couple features that would add to convenience such as a flip-out screen. If you were looking to buy a USED camera body for $500-$800, what would you all recommend?
Andrew Renner hey there. I would think about trying to find a Canon 6D. A mark ii if you can find one in your price range, but the original mark i would be fine also. Your canon lenses probably won't work with it though if they're kit lenses made for ef-s. They need to be full frame ef mount. You'll notice the quality difference in your photos immediately. Vastly improved low light performance, less noise. When you say abysmal fps, are you saying so from a video standpoint or photography?
Shaneo 613 FPS in photos. If I am shooting raw, I can do a burst of about 3 photos before the camera has to pause and take a breather for a couple seconds. It is super annoying.
Really interesting to see what’s in your cart. Are you thinking of getting the new Ronin-S to replace your current stabilizer? Did my own “camera bag” video yesterday. But yours are so much better :)
Thanks for the info! The only thing stopping me (or that I don't know about them) is if they are constant light only or can I use them as strobes? I prefer flash for my photography rather than constant light. BUTTTT I will most likely end up with some of their stuff if I want to take my youtube stuff to the next level. Video is so new to me haha. Thanks again for the reply, love your content!
Nice Rock-N-Roller! You've had this same one for a year or two now? Have you found that the Rock-N-Roller carts rust pretty easily? I've used a couple over the last two years and they've rusted pretty quick for me. Some c-stand advice (if anyone sees this), make sure to place the largest foot towards the light/whatever pointing direction. WAY TOO MANY people place the small foot or a gap in the direction and it falls over (sandbag, as Chris suggested is a 😙👌). Sweet gear tho Chris, damn!
It's like anything I guess. Take it around the world, mountains, snow, skyscrapers, planes, etc it'll get some damage and rust. Signs of hard work (cup half full).
Chris Hau hard work pays off! I started my channel focusing on Photography & film in December. Still a long way to go! Videos like these great inspiration ✌🏼
You should do a video tutorial on how to build intros like yours. I know Peter used to have a similar one (haven’t seen it in a while) and they look so good!
😉seriously tho... nice job - I'm a fan of ur work. I'm a travel vlogger heading to Canada in a few months for a year or two. The Canadian UA-cam community seems so vibrant right now. I'm excited to get involved.
What about us poor folk who are on a budget? I got excited when I bought my glidecam hd 2000! Still need a ton of stuff but little by little my equipment is growing. Next on the list is lighting and more glass.
Some of these items don't cost alot of money. The sandbags, sound blankets and 5-in-1 reflects would all cost under $25.00. All of those are extremely useful!
Great topic. Very much enjoyed seeing what all you have for your cart! Right now, all my gear fits in a small bag, but I can see a big ole cart of gear in the future (after I win the lotto of course (= ) Cheers!
I can't even begin to explain how many times my 5:1 reflector has saved the day. I literally have two always in my car. Now I just need to get a cart so I'm not making 5 trips on my shoots.
Don't own any camera or gear but when i started to earn money the second thing i would purchase will be a nice camera😄 and then collect more money.. Invest and then buy other gear
Don't cheap out on the bitrate! I feel like this video is waaaay too blocky... Nevertheless - love the gear, would love to have it. *drool* Btw, you grew pretty quickly. Can't believe you're at 95K already. Wup, wup!
Nice! I was going to ask for an updated gear review video, so I was (very) pleasantly surprised when I got this notification! Any chance we will see a 2018 Camera Bag video?
What's the biggest piece of gear you own!? What would you buy if you could fill up a CAMERA CART!?
It was my whole Canon C300 rig. Fully loaded with a bunch of accessories. But sold it since. Now its just a FalconEyes RX-18 LED light. lol
canon 750d and I would love to buy a dji mavic air
The heavy tripod that I carry during my Himalayan treks every year. I offload it on a mule to carry my backpack but carry the 8-10 kgs camera gear myself. But climbing up and down the mountains is a pain with the camera gear.
The biggest item is a TLR medium format, which contains more metal than necessary and therefore weighs way too much.
My fuji XT-2 and the Objectifs

Thank you so much for the membership for 2 months! I got one! so happy! Appreciate everything you do for the community in UA-cam and photography!
:) yeah man! Go and learn
Call me a nerd, but camera carts do it for me!
Love your opening scene BG music always. What category are you picking always from epidemic ?
Beats or soft house ?
Totally agree with getting a cart, especially on a seemingly easy talking head shoot I end up bringing breefy tripod, panel LEDS and C Stands and as I'm finding out an additional monitor for the client is becoming essential as they're becoming more and more aware of how they want to look on screen.
Man you keep that cart CLEAN! I just picked one up today and plan to keep mine as clean as you. Great take on the typical whats in my camera bag video!
Love the idé of the sponsorship that fits your channel. That is how you think longterm. Chris, you are amazing! Hope to meet you one day! 🇸🇪
Chris. Chris! CHRIS! This episode was the bomb! I loved it so much. It's so refreshing to hear about studio gear, why you have it, the pitfalls of not using it (sandbag), and just giving us a sense of how long it took you to round out your kit. Love it. Cheers pal - more of this.
Thanks Paolo! Really appreciate it :)
My camera cart is from Harbor Freight- the wheels grind on the bed and it constantly swerves to the left.
It’s got “character”.
The Enthusiasm Project hahah I love that last comment
I laughed my ass off when you pulled out that 6 foot reflector
I really recommend getting a cart! I have back issues so I got a cart to carry all my equipment. It has made things so easy since then!! And it also looks really neat and professional!
YUPPPP he knows.
Hey Chris! Great video with nice tips. Got a question for you: What's the bag you use that slides into the cart and carries the c-stands? I was hoping that it would be mentioned in the video ;)
Love that this is not another “what’s in my camera bag” video! Lol
Also love that this talks about what you need for a bigger production setup. Thank you!!!
You’re so close to 100k subs! Looking forward to seeing you hit that milestone. Your channel is dope! Thanks for all the great content.
David Pergande thanks man! It’s been a wild journey so far :)

How do you like that rock n roller cart bag? How well does it hold your c stands? And how many?
Thank you for the challenge I now know what to look for as I am a beginner.
Awesome, would love some more tutorials. Love from Scotland 🏴
I love the gear episodes. Very educational and inspiring. Help me focus my acquisitions in the right direction. Thanks. I just last week figured out I needed a cart. Then this. Boom!

Love this kind of videos. Thanks

I love the Thumbnail for this video Chris!
Thanks dude! SPENT WAY TO LONG ON IT ACTUALLY :P

Thaks Chris! What's the black bag at the end of the trolley where you put your stands and tripods in please?
Yo thank you so much for the 2 free premium months, I'm glad I got it and I will definitely use it !
:) Go learn and smash it.
BRB GOIN SHOPPIN' 🔥🙌😍Who's coming?!
I'm IN!
Sweet Gear, and a very Nice E46 my dude😉👌🏻
Hey! Question for anyone if they can answer. I have been into automotive photography for a little while and I am looking to upgrade some of my gear.

Shaneo 613 FPS in photos. If I am shooting raw, I can do a burst of about 3 photos before the camera has to pause and take a breather for a couple seconds. It is super annoying.
love the video Chris!
Really interesting to see what’s in your cart. Are you thinking of getting the new Ronin-S to replace your current stabilizer?
Did my own “camera bag” video yesterday. But yours are so much better :)
I want the RONIN-S so badly.
Chris Hau Same here, can’t wait for it to be released. Unfortunately stuff like that are almost 100 dollars more expensive in Sweden.
What's the bag that the C-Stands are in at 1:39?
My Canon 77D would be the most expensive item after my EFS 17-55mm f2.8 throughout lens. It's what I mostly use for UA-cam and photography.
That's one expensive cart! Love seeing into your arsenal man! Everyone loving on the aputure lights makes me strongly consider them!
They actually are great. The CRI rating is amazing, LED is the best. There's a reason they are killing it.
Thanks for the info! The only thing stopping me (or that I don't know about them) is if they are constant light only or can I use them as strobes? I prefer flash for my photography rather than constant light. BUTTTT I will most likely end up with some of their stuff if I want to take my youtube stuff to the next level. Video is so new to me haha. Thanks again for the reply, love your content!
I don't think I'll ever have enough gear to fill a cart haha! Great video and different to the usual "what's in my bag?"
right! :P
Nice Rock-N-Roller! You've had this same one for a year or two now? Have you found that the Rock-N-Roller carts rust pretty easily? I've used a couple over the last two years and they've rusted pretty quick for me.

WAY TOO MANY people place the small foot or a gap in the direction and it falls over (sandbag, as Chris suggested is a 😙👌). Sweet gear tho Chris, damn!
PS. Love the development in colour and lighting you've made with your setup. 🙌 Composition is on point!
Yeah - if you take good care of them they won't rust. Mine isn't yet.
Aww thanks man! I kinda wanted to keep this set up simple.
It's like anything I guess. Take it around the world, mountains, snow, skyscrapers, planes, etc it'll get some damage and rust. Signs of hard work (cup half full).
Hi Chris . Can you help on how to reduce the hissing that comes through the Rode VideoMicro ? Thanks .
Check my channel - I did a whole tutorial on it.
Thanks a lot Chris . Appreciate that !
Chris... you are just amazing... that is all! ❤
Jordan Wright he really is
Well done for your first sponsor dude!
Thankssss dude. LONGG TIME IN THE MAKING.
Chris Hau hard work pays off! I started my channel focusing on Photography & film in December. Still a long way to go! Videos like these great inspiration ✌🏼
That cart idea kind of blew my mind lol I've lugged items in and out of gigs and it never occurred to me to get a cart haha thanks
What's the bag that holds your c stands and how is it attached? Thanks.
You should do a video tutorial on how to build intros like yours. I know Peter used to have a similar one (haven’t seen it in a while) and they look so good!
Good to meet you the other day! You're super awesome guy man.... "the guy with the big beard lol"
Nick Plourde no way! That’s amazing. Great to meet you too nick!
Love your vids. Looking forward to more, especially tutorials. That would be awesome.
Thanks Chris. That video was "hella dope" :)
You know it ;)
😉seriously tho... nice job - I'm a fan of ur work. I'm a travel vlogger heading to Canada in a few months for a year or two. The Canadian UA-cam community seems so vibrant right now. I'm excited to get involved.
A lot of toys too play with! Very cool . . How bout your Hair Beautification Kit tho? =) Awesome!
Thank u Chris for skillshare, I dint knw the premium plan was this cheap
So good Chris! Keep it up! I just did a “what’s in my camera bag” on my channel lol
You can record pro-red files which is....hella dope 😂 yes man, gotta get you out to SF, you have the California lingo down already
I never mind listening to the sponsored messages from creators that I really enjoy like Chris, Mango Street, etc :)
Keep up the good work man!
Tell us more about sound blanket. Show us how you use them?
Thank you for sharing this!!! :)
I like the originality lol
have you ever looked at the edelkrone sliders, they seem to be realy good as well
They seem like an interesting brand.
Also, you know what I want in my camera cart? SOME CHRIS HAU MERCHANDISE!!!!
I really need to make some eh :)
Chris Hau YES!! I would buy everything! Do it for your 100k!
what is the c stand holder on the left side of the frame you are using at 13 seconds? i need that!
chris where can i find your luts for premiere pro ?? thank you
hey pro , do you have any camera that you dont use?
am really in need of one
Almost 100K! Great!
yo chris how come no gaff tape mention? I LOVE GAFF TAPE
I had a whole section - the video would have been 200 hours long. haha
Great video!keep it up
What about us poor folk who are on a budget? I got excited when I bought my glidecam hd 2000! Still need a ton of stuff but little by little my equipment is growing. Next on the list is lighting and more glass.

Hi Chris, is that a GripnGaff bag?
New Subscriber! Love it!!
What bag are you using on the end of the cart to hold the c-stands?
Rock N Roller makes an extension back. If you go on B and H I'm sure you'll find it. :)
What a video 🙌🙌❤️
Great topic. Very much enjoyed seeing what all you have for your cart! Right now, all my gear fits in a small bag, but I can see a big ole cart of gear in the future (after I win the lotto of course (= ) Cheers!
haha - or when you get more projects!
I can't even begin to explain how many times my 5:1 reflector has saved the day. I literally have two always in my car. Now I just need to get a cart so I'm not making 5 trips on my shoots.
Hey Chris, I've asked you this before, but what is "Furtography" 😂 And great video thanks I was looking for a cart.
Chris- I miss an electric skateboard here! ;-)
RIGHT! I should have said the one wheel :P
thanks!
Amazing video
The biggest question the biggest thing to add and complete my camera crate is the camera itself.
Wish I had one😐😶😂
Siddharth Sancheti me though
Cool video!
Thanks Chris - I've subbed and pinned this video - That cart - yes please.
You probably need that cart just for your hair products.
BAHAHA. Best comment.
Lol
Top 10!
I've been working on this G master 2.8 for like a year
love me some Skillshare!
Would love to see a video on a shoot that you use those stuff.
You got it man!
Don't own any camera or gear but when i started to earn money the second thing i would purchase will be a nice camera😄 and then collect more money.. Invest and then buy other gear
Come on Chris! We wanted an updated what’s in my camera bag video🙏🏼
haha ;)
nice video!

Brian classsss
haha but seriously though what product do you use for your hair, you should do a video on that
Don't cheap out on the bitrate! I feel like this video is waaaay too blocky... Nevertheless - love the gear, would love to have it. *drool*
Btw, you grew pretty quickly. Can't believe you're at 95K already. Wup, wup!
wheres the gaffer tape to tape down the cords???
Nice! I was going to ask for an updated gear review video, so I was (very) pleasantly surprised when I got this notification! Any chance we will see a 2018 Camera Bag video?
Probably later this year! Still use a lot of the same gear :P
Okeydokey!
bmw e46?
5D classic..
4 to 6 years. you right...
Drink a shot every time Chris says "like"
Zilvinas Baskys sounds like a party! Everyone gonna be hung over in the mourning ;)
