![They FINALLY Made a PERFECT CAMERA [DJi RONIN 4D]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/V7DnNoAnbDc/mqdefault.jpg)
the running shot looks like the famous forest slow mo shot in Sherlock Holmes 2, great one
Idk of anything from Sherlock Holmes 2 can be considered "famous" lol
Oh yaa Gavin from slow mo guys filmed all the slow mo in that movie :D
Oh you guys beat me to it.....great job nevertheless.
Quick tip for you guys and this can serve you to stop the camera specially if you don't have a crew of 3 persons.
1- At the end of your rope or cable make a V neck to slow down the rig.
2- use electrical tape and wrap it around the cable near the end where you want the rig to stop. Make it in a way that is gradually growing so to speak, to make it take the shape of a funnel.
Like I said if you are a one man team, this will help you not to brake your camera
Another idea would be to fix an elastic cord on both the camera and the upper tree (like in bungee jumping)
7:00 "We should most probably tape those ends but WATEVER. yOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN, NEXT TIME." 3 seconds later " wow, yeah u should watch that. LO ;D
When their production quality is so good but they have less than 100k
Production quality is top notch but let’s be honest. How many people are interested in a camera on a line. I’m but I don’t know how many other people are.
HerreDePerre I mean peter McKinnon has millions and I’m sure if he made a video on a homemade cable cam he would get plenty of views, and people would love it.
idk bro ask people who dont subs
I loved the running shot!! I’ve been watching Peter McKinnon and Matti Haapoja for a while now, but there filmmaking still kinda starts to become the same every video. I love that you guys keep trying new things, which makes every video just a true pleasure to watch!!
4:50 This is why doing what you love doing is always fun. Imagine if this was some office work. Someone would have a heart attack.
Nice one we used our Climbing Gear to make a Cable Cam.
A few years ago we made our own Ziplines so we thought how cool would it be to make a cable cam.
The Photo at the beginning was our CableCam.
imagine that pointed towards the horizon with the cyclist riding in a misty forest and the bike throwing dust and dirt in the air filmed with a telephoto lens 🥵
That footage would be sooo good!
Yes with a telephoto lens
Those who have a Dji in your house. Like here.🥰😜
DJI is a GOD
I only have osmo mobile 3 I'm saving up for the DJI Mavic 2 zoom unless in the near future they come out with a better Mavic
Just a phantom 4 pro
Just a mavic mini
@@ckt3315 Nice Videos Bro..💫
@@crewkings4399 thank you
6:25 Stevens laugh cracks me up
the last one looks realy cool
I love how you are all smart thinkers and able to come up with solutions on the spot!
TMS Production deserves more subs!!!
The quality on this channel is IMMACULATE cant believe under 100k smh underrated
It hurts me how you guys dont have 100k+ subs..yet..but dont worry its on its way coming soon
Like i cant even describe how much i enjoyed watching this..your videos always rocking..the only videos i watch full without missing a single second❤
Thank you, it means a lot!
Sick B-roll at 2:20 The new camera footage looks nice. Definitely better sharpness and overall quality
the FOOTAGES look really sick!!!
I saw some other guys build their own DIY cable cam and they just threw a couple bath towels over the cable as a bumper brake to catch the slider.
I love filmmaking. You get to do all sorts of insane things to thousands of dollars worth of equipment.
Next step is to motorize the whole thing😉Would love to see something like that!
You guys should add a motor to the rig. You could have an extra wheel on a spring to hold tension so the motor wheel can grip then and a stepper motor if you wanted slow, precise movement or a dc motor for fast, motion controlled shots. Love the videos!
That would be a great idea, maybe for version 2!
7:02 and that's exactly why I'm making this suggestion. Look at using Dyneema rope. Very low stretch and very strong for it's weight. A lot of winches are now coming with Dyneema and the marine industry is moving to Dyneema rope. Also no 7:02
Superb video guys! Liked how you assembled your small wheeled carriage and experimented with different methods to get the right look.
Some tips: Clothes line steel wire is coated with plastic and very strong, so the run will be quieter. Certainly, your custom-made cable would be longer than a clothesline, and more useful. I bet yours was pricey and heavier.
The other tip is stopping the sliding rig. If you have ever been on a true zip line, there is a loose cable with an eyelet that slides just before the endpoint, about 10 to 15 feet before the final stop to slow people, or in your case, your rig zooming down the line. With a buddy controlling it, this would be a safer way to slow and stop your flying rig versus how you're doing it now (12:41). You could then hang it higher too!
Hope this helps!
Cheers! Frederic in Montréal.
Surely do this over a stream or something that would be awesome
2nd shot was dope
So this is how people were filming this type of footage before drones
maybe a reel of fishing line would be an upgrade to the current braking system? Possibly with a little motor to wind it back up if you want to get fancy. But just putting a safety line on the thing and running behind it would have worked too.
You can make a break for it with a bored out piece of rubber tied to a rope, or something similar. When the trolley hits the rubber, you can use the rope to slow down the momentum at a much more gradual pace.
i love coming up with ideas and then trying to produce those ideas in my head into reality. Cool video!!!
Just a word about the physics... Please make a version 2.0 of this. The metal strip should be about 3 times as long which reduces sagging of the line and stabelizes the Camera in the moving direction. Then you should ad another pulli somewhere around the middle of the metal strip. The lone goes under-over-under. The makes the cam put tension on the line an the pullis which stops the rattling.
Other than that... This is great am I am gonna build it this weekend!
Yes and version 3.0 (the next level) would have to be a motorised one so you can actually control the speed it's moving at. That would be sick!
@@marktegrotenhuis I would love to see something like that!
That is probably the best video I watched this week. Well done guys!
Cool! I'm glad you can point at things now too.
Loved the video ! Can you do a review of the fuji xt4 ? It would be great !
This was such a dialed video!!! Keep making more of them
We want to see epic phone gimbal hacks
Great One!!!
Love The "Saga"
And Congratulations on the Upgrade
Would love to see a review or something about it!!!
Loving it guys! Interesting idea! Big fan of the DIY content.
Awesome! Thank you!
You need to use Dyneema rope once you go beyond 20 feet because the sag is very low with Dyneema (also known as Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylen).
Hot tip:
bolt something to the cable to stop the pulley running so that you neither need someone to catch it, nor do you crash into a tree
You can connect rope to Rohnin to slow it down at the end also it will be helpful to reset the camera...
You guys SMILE the same way...
*You 3 crack me up!* I'll be honest...I think the Skydio 2 would give you those shots on the bike through the trail without a problem. Just watch those small branches..less setup time too. Still good stuff! Nailed the shot at 13:20 though!
Awesome idea! Other people have already said it, but I also want to chime in about figuring out a way to gradually slow the camera down so you don’t crash into a tree at the end if you are unable to stop it with your hand for some reason.
This is such a good idea!! So much to go wrong but you still did it anyway! Love it guys
This is super cool guys! Thank you so much for taking the time to experiment with this, and for bringing us along!
thats such a cool idea! nice video as always!
Thanks so much!
Always so nice and creative !
Wood blocks at the bottom of the cable will add drag.... aka brakes. Each block will drag slowing it down only so far, so fast, need more brakes... add another block on the line.
You guys should try and get a thick sparring pad to put at the end of the light so one of y’all can help more w video rather than stopping the camera
your trio is the coolest on youtube!!!
You guys deserve way more subscribers! This video is so cool, love the humour and the creativity! :D
Absolutely awesome! I love your videos!
Love the running shots, will be good with a motorcycle 🤔
This is sick! And as a way to stop it maybe find something springy that you can put at the end of the cable so when the gimbal hits it it quickly decreases the speed, without hitting the tree. If I find something I'll update this comment!
That’s would be greatly appreciated! A solution that was previously mentioned was to use a section of pool noodle threaded through the cable!
@@TMSProductions although that may sound like a good idea I feel like the pool noodle is too stiff and it will stop the gimbal way too fast and cause it to launch upwards and probably break something. I'm still searching!
@@TMSProductions I think I might have found a solution. It is called a ZLP spring brake. It says you should only use it on zip lines 100 ft or less but in your case you're not having people go down it you're having a 15 lb rig which should be perfect. Hopefully this Just gives you guys a starting place to look for the perfect solution. You basically put it over the cable and when the gimbal hits it it will coil up. www.ziplinestop.com/products/zlp-zip-line-trolley-spring-stop-brake
Why not Add Towels or a Seies of foam cups to slow down the rig??
As the rig grabs the first cup the slower end will keep the xameravfrom shock as well
For Sale: Lightly used Ronin, near perfect condition, never been dropped
you should buy a pool noodle and use that as a break for the end
or just put a towel or t-shirt on the cable ;-)
clap clap clap on the biking
lol
Guys You NAILED IT!!!! Great job!
nice job guys keep up the good work
1. rule for slackliners: protect the tree!
Use an old yoga mat. Thank you.
this channel is soo under rated
Thank you!
Yea people really should support you lot more
Without any doubt, the best video you've ever made, it's so inspiring and well executed 🥳🙌🏻
You can really do so much with the Ronin S that people don't think of. This was pretty sweet although that camera crash scared me quite a bit! lol and I did an overhead set up with my ronin if anyone cares
reaaally sick guys!
2:24 My ears are bleeding.
Awesome video... Would love to see some kind of cinematic edit (music, colorgrading) at the end with the material you shot
Keep up the great work though
His
laugh xD
You guys are AWESOME! Love your enthusiasm for trying new things, and experimenting. Actually stumbled across your site, while watching another channel. Best to you guys in your future adventures.
Yes I did hit the Subscribe button.
You guys are actually such handymans!
YOU GUYS A EVERYTHING I WANTED TO BE......the things u have...to make other things....and such awesome friends.......such awesome locations.....
Where did you download your orange lens flare from you guys use a lot?
Mate this is sick
You guys rock!
You Guys are really Dope. You deserve much more subscribers than this... Awesome content ❤️
nice work on this one boys! love it
Can't help but notice the Canon 70-200 0:13 . Is that a teaser for something in the future?
you can put a few towels at the end to stop it
This is so awesome :D
Great work bro...
Really well done!
Thanks a lot!
dudue you really enjoy that so it make it organic , amazing job on it
thumbs up for the Fuji
I want to try this with my new Insta360 camera
This is such a cool and inspiring video during this time
Get a snatchblock and you'll be able to get that wire tighter
This is cool 🚗 🚗
Can you guys make a video about how to shoot broll on cameras that doesn't have 120fps ? I really need that
DAAAMN!! that looked cool
Where did you get the cable?
you should maybe do a video explaining why you chose to get something like the fuji x-t4 rather than something like the new canon r5 or r6, idk that would be pretty cool to see
next time, put a folded blanket over the low end to stop the camera 😉
This is so cool, good work guys!
Thank you!
just found your channel and i LOVE IT !!❣️
I love xt4
Awesome guys..
Rolling shutter in fire
This is super cool!
good job guys
There's a screen so I can point to the window and blinds and stuff.
LOL
