FUJIFILM X-T3 FOR VIDEO: CAMERA SET-UP TUTORIAL
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- In this episode, the longest gearbox to date, I go through how to set up the Fuji X-T3 for video. I hope you like it and please subscribe & click the bell for notifications for when new episodes drop. IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THIS VIDEO...
1. Jump to about 6:48 if you want to get into the in-depth primer on the camera.
2. Starting at about 14:36 I mention that the Dynamic Range was set to 100% instead of 400% when I was shooting F-Log but have now found out that dynamic range options are disabled when shooting log on the camera. That makes sense as Log is supposed to yield the most dynamic range out of the sensor as possible. DR is only available when using the film simulations.
3. The X mount versions of the cine zooms are MKX not MK. The MK versions are the e-mount ones.

Truly an educational experience for all XT3 users power to the people.
Ishijah1 thanks for the kind words.
Another amazing camera review, from a cinematographer, for cinematographers; proving once again how little youtubers know about cameras, video and cinematography.
Thank you all of videos, they explore everything you really need to know. I have literally rented a camera, watched your video & delivered professional results. There is nothing worse than being on set and trying to figure out a menu setting, or the best mode for the situation.
The XT3 really is the best hybrid camera; I mean you could improve video and photography by carrying around both a Pocket 4k & a Nikon D850, with lenses .... or just the XT3.
Thanks for the kind words!
sold off my canon gear six months ago, waited and waited, finally it dawned on me the X-T3 is probably not going to be bested (for corporate reasons) at sony at this price point. that whole price thing, but the real kicker is that the Panasonic S1 is too heavy to carry with me everywhere... even if the A7Siii is lighter and more attractive for some reason, i think their lens lineup is overrated, dated and similarly bulky. looking forward to not checking an fs7 and a giant DSLR anymore!! this thing feels like no camera at all, with the zoom i am gtg and walking on 10-bit air... hopefully i earn enough with the X-T3 to procure myself one of the recently rumoured, hopefully forthcoming leica 100th anniversary ASC edition "location scouting" cameras - now that is a camera worth spending thousands of dollars on!!
digressions aside, the professionals are going to wake up eventually. the workflow is faster than any camera (canon, pentax, sony, canon...) system i have ever owned. the Fuji X-T3 with the 23mm f2 WR and an extra battery is a fantastic combination - even with the zoom it is 1/2 the weight and 1/2 the size of any sony or canon with a prime. IMHO the 1.2 glass from fuji is not a good option for video, and the f2 is great for street or documentary photography. the battery life on the X-T3 is substantially better than youtube reviews let it on to be - getting approximately 75% of my canon. if i was on a hot-set shooting video, i would want the battery grip - but only for the AC adapter connection - and only if the 28600 MaH Anker battery pack (officially recommended by Fuji) doesn't work out for some reason. as i think it is only available on amazon, i would gladly return it. with that Anker setup, presumably i can shoot for nearly 6 hours!?! on my busiest days with the fs7 shooting interviews all day, i have never shot for 6 hours.
clearly i am a happy camper.
@@punkrachmaninoff hi. what is fs7? thanks. phil
Just picked up the xt3.... so much to learn but excited for more knowledge
Man I am in shock because I'm getting the XT-3 as a B cam. But after watching your video it's turning it into the A cam... Lol. Thanks so much and I subscribed!
Thanks. I’d love more X-T3 content from you 🙂
Thanks Isaac. I need to buy the camera first and then I will create some more. Maybe some stuff with the Ninja V and also some stills stuff?
I’m a photographer who is slowly getting into video. I’d love to see if the ninja really helps. I understand 4:2:0 vs 4:2:2 but haven’t actually seen how much further you can push the grade with that extra colour information.
Isaac Insoll Noted!
@Isaac Insoll It's a bit of a rabbit hole I'm afraid as there are so many variables that contribute to the final image. Each company has its secret sauce and that can have a dramatic imoact on how far you can push and pull the image in post. For instance, the Canon C300 is only 8 bit but has some magic fairy unicorn dust in there that allows for pushing the image more than you would expect. That said, I would say that bit depth might be a tad more important than chroma sampling. Bit depth defines the total number of colors/colours. Generally there are less banding issues with 10 versus 8 bit. We are very good at filling in blanks which is why chroma sampling can be 4:2:0 and we can still "see" everything. Big subject that will become bigger once our monitors actually start to show us more of what these cameras are actually capturing.
@@mribi gerald undone did a video recently about this subject. for documentary filmmakers who can nail exposure, his conclusions were interesting from a data management perspective.
A very clear tutorial, you hit the deck running. I subscribed.
Thanks for watching.
It's not possible to change the dynamic range and set it to 400% while shooting Flog. Dynamic range is only available when OFF is selected in Movie settings > F-log recording
I can set the tracking in photo mode, but not in video mode, so I don’t know what is that tracking sensitivity for. I presume it’s just for face/eye detection mode, but what if I want to track something else or a person from behind.
I’m thinking about adding a XT4 to my Xt3, because of IBIS. The fact I can’t stabilise a prime or vintage is killing me. I have to carry either a tripod or a glidecam with me all the time. The other option would be to buy the Tamron 17-70 f2.8 VC, but then again I can’t use primes.
For now the only stabilised lens I use is the 18-55 and mine isn’t as sharp as it should be.
Excellent setup tutorial very helpful!
Glad it helped Kadshah
With the latest firmware you can output a film simulation to a external monitor when filming in flog
David Hoult Yes. I want the ability to see a LUT on the built in screen when shooting in Flog.
theC47 yes it would be nice if Fuji would allow you to load your own LUTs let’s hope another firmware update will add that.
Awesome Video. I have a couple questions. The first one being is that a SmallHD wire that's connected to the SmallHD Focus? I have the same setup but my Monitor isn't detecting the camera. The 2nd question is that my movie setting menu (1) My Dynamic Range is grayed out. How come you can set yours?
May I suggest that you record the screen via the HDMI out port and that way avoid your hand always appearing in the shot?
RemekTek Media If I had had time I would have.
Thanks for the video. When should you use 100% DR or 400% DR, what is actually happening when you change that setting?
Nathaniel Bockley Sure thing. Higher percentage dynamic range is for situations where you need to protect highlights more. If highlights are blowing out and you have the choice then go higher on DR.
@@theC47 there must be a reason why one would not just leave it on maximum permanently though...?
@@GeoffRichards_GP I would love to know the answer too
I haven't tested this on the Fuji X-T3, but from a technical/theoretical point of view, 400% DR should be used where you need more dynamic range, like in broad daylight where you want to preserve details from both the highlights and the shadows. Using this with F-log would be ideal.
By decreasing dynamic range to 100%, you may find less noise in the shadows when shooting low light since you're keeping most of the bit-rate within a narrower range, therefore the performance of your mid tones details should be better as well. What you will find is crushed blacks and blown out highlights if you do this in a scene that requires a higher DR, which is usually not the case in low light.
Valuable information. I am going to buy T4 thanks.
Great. I have videos on the X-T4 on the channel.
This is a great video that covers a lot of ground for video shooters, so thank you. When shooting F-Log, would you recommend exposing by a stop or two just as with S-log and V-log?
Hey Johan,
I’m still experimenting but right now I’m trying to expose for middle gray/grey at around 45-50 and making sure I’m not blowing out highlights. Learning this camera but it seems quite different than the Sony a7 series.
@@theC47 Thank you. Looking forward to more content from you on this camera.
@@theC47 Thanks for sharing your knowledge and I hope we get to learn more about this camera. I've got an itch to ditch the A7III for the X-T3.
@@johantaljaard2093 same here!
Hey mate great video. I have noticed on my new X-T4 that Flog does not use bt.2020 gamut it use rec 601. Not even rec 709. Crazy.
I bought my XT-3 3-4 months ago. I fell in love with it immediately! To the point where I was contemplating of switching over to Fuji from Canon. :O Maybe get the XH-1 or when the release the XH-2.
Thank you all of video ,
I have a question. I am trying to transfer a 4k video from fujifilm xt3 to the iPhone, but it does not open, what is the problem?🙁
great video. what is good free video editor for Fuji video?
DaVinci Resolve would be your best bet if you want free. I haven’t tested the h.265 in there but I’m sure you could google it and see if people are editing that codec in Resolve.
Thanks for your insight! Looking into anM50 as my first canon
Great first camera but lacks a headphone jack.
I own the Panasonic GH5s. Should i switch to the xt3? My only concern is the low light compared to the GH5s.
Not if you are happy with the GH5S. No need to switch from such a good camera. Caleb Pike can help you with what to get (speed booster), to increase your angle of view to rival the X-T3s sensor size.
theC47 This video has been intensely helpful with getting my XT3 setup for initial video use. I really appreciate the information!
Trail or Sail For sure. Glad it helped.
this was a very informative video. My brother just gave me this camera and I am about to use it for underwater videos. I was wondering if you had any recommendations on a wide angle lens for this camera. Do you recommend any camera lens
If you stop down the camera the Laowa 9mm zero distortion lens might be a good option.
My observation: The XT-3 is the closest DSLR in terms of being an ENG or Cinema camera. I say this because of the abundance of tactile functions on the camera.
Its not a dslr
Nice video explaination for the video features,just started my video ''career'' after 10 years as a photographer.You earn a subscribe ! Please make more tips about the XT3 and video features. Cheers
Happy new year Jem! Gonna be a good one
Totem Ent. Thanks. Yes it is!
Also was hoping for a link to the 4 stop ND filter you recommend for the 18-55mm lens. Thanks
Hoya variable!
Very helpful. Thanks for the excellent presentation. Question, software (and some specs) seems very similar to the defunct NX-1. When I shot external hdmi raw output UHD on the NX-1, most of the settings on the camera are locked. What's the settings flexibility when filming external hdmi uhd output on the XT-3? Thank you again for all your contributions to our film community.
I haven't done a lot of external recording tests but the only issue I know about is that the headphone jack in the camera is disabled when using HDMi so you would monitor from your external recording device instead. I'm getting a Ninja V soon so will do more tests when it is in.
And no any words about exposure ramping)) everything is good, except one thing: use xt3 in the studio, and not use for run and gun shooting, because exposure stepping is awful when lighting changes around thr subject. See more at dpreview forum
I’m not sure what this comment means. If you set the camera to manual it’s fine unless you mean when you are using zoom lenses.
Very helpful. Thanks.
Fantastic content!
C Weeks Thanks!
Great tutorial thank you! What do you think about some of the Fujinon prime lenses for video? The F1.4 lenses are said to have noisy autofocus and some say that is a problem for video. Do you think they are ok for video if one wants to capture audio also, possibly with a Rode mic mounted on top of the camera?
Ozzy Slant Well, I have the 35 f/2 and the 56 f/1.2
Both are fine for video except no image stabilization.
The 35 f/1.4 is a bit noisier. I would stick with the weather resistant lenses as they are all quiet unless you need that extra stop.
Hey Jem .. this may sound like a silly question but here goes.... A while ago I purchased a SmallHD Focus 5 monitor that I have used with my Canon 5D Mrk4 ... now I want to use it with my Fujifilm XT3 (especially after watching your video), but the cabling that I have with the 5D package doesn't work with the Fujifilm. I've googled my mind out trying to find what cabling I need. Can you or someone on this comment stream let me know what I need. I live in a small town so popping out to the local camera store isn't really on. Thank you in advance.
How do you get the 4K Video from the XT3 to the IPad Pro? It doesn’t except it as it says the video is too large. If I change the video settings to a lower bit rate, it will accept it, but not the 4K that I like. So... Is there a work around?
Thank you very much for this video, very helpful! And do you think about HLG record mode?
It's really designed for broadcast.
requesting a video like this for the Pocket 4k, and Panasonic S1 (when available).
If I can get ahold of them then I will do it!
Super helpful, thanks for this.
1BigBucks1 👍👍
1BigBucks1 sure thing!
Thank you for the video. Can you do an X-T3 test with a camera that shot this review?
Hi Igor. I don’t understand the request. Can you please elaborate on what you’d like me to do?
I have x-t3 and the movie mode is grayed out and so are many many selection settings are grayed out. and currently its in slow mode on video. I am unable to switch to normal mode for video cause about 85% of my camera is grayed out? can you help?
you should do a video just on settings that are grayed out and how to unlock them. There isn't any UA-cam videos on grayed out settings.
This might help you with this topic…

Have you ever compared the video quality of the XT3 to the ZCam E2 (smaller MFT sensor, but RAW)?
Does face detection work when an external monitor is connected unlike the A7iii?
Hello! Very interesting video! Thanks! Would you recommend me the minimum data rate recording for uploading to youtube? I don't have a fast sd card, so I'm wondering what can I do with th one I have! Cheers!
Thanks. The 100Mbps option is great. If shooting high ISO you might want to look into the noise reduction parameters.
@@theC47 thank you!

Excellent video. What brand and model number is the mini tripod you used with your X-T3?
Eric Adeleye it’s a Benro S2h head but it’s no longer made. That’s the Arca Swiss version but they still make the S2. The tripod is a Benro travel tripod.
Thanks for the great content! What is the model of the tripod in this video?
Video newbie here. i setup my camera using the settings you outlined and LightRoom wouldn't import the MOV files. Then after using Finder to copy the files to HD the playback using Davinci Resolve 15 is jerky. Is it because of the H.265 setting? or the 200mbps? Can I convert these to something usable?
Thanks
It's the codec. Lightroom might not support the H.265 format. I find that H.265 Long GOP @ 200mbps is the most efficient version overall. Lots of dropped frames playback for ALL-I. If that's not working then you have to go to MP4 recording. I get good playback in FCPX with the above in UHD though.
@@theC47 Thanks but now I have to ask~ What is FCPX and UHD? Looks like you have a nice channel
Ronald Hoppus Thanks. Final Cut Pro X and Ultra High Definition.
I figured it out :-)
Ronald Hoppus How did you figure it out? Details please...
can the xt3 run a ssd for more storage capabilities?
Great video!
I would like to use the XT3 to record an event lasting 45min to an hour, in 1080p. If I use a recorder, like the NinjaV, can I record for an hour?
Thanks!
Photographic elements Yes. The recording limit is only for the internal recording to SD cards.
Is there a way to jam sync the camera's TC to an external source?
RemekTek Media No.
Hi, is there any way to set video output format to mp4 instead of mov?
mp4 would only apply to internal recording if it was available. This camera has H.264 and H.265 options and over HDMI (video output), you would be sending an uncompressed signal and then choosing your recording format on an external recorder.
Thanks. I can't select the film simulation option, why is this? Thanks man.
Andrés Toro Giraldo Depends on your settings. Are you in movie mode? Are you in log or not?
How do you sync the timecode without an SDI port? Can you jamsync it from the slate? What would I tell the sound mixer?
It isn't really an ideal workflow with mirrorless. There are some audio based jamsync solution out there like those from tentacle sync but you can only get scratch audio to camera with those when they are attached. If you are doing diuble system sound they might be an option.
bhpho.to/2F2tSbX
Otherwise just set internal clocks to free run (time of day), so they are as close as possible and then slate your takes.
Hi dude, i'm a landscape photographer but for fun with friends i'd like to record us doing wakeboarding. Do you think i can record with the 50-140 with a 3 stop ND square ? or should i go lower 2 stops ? maybe ? that could save me 150 for a variable. Thanks in advance ;)
I generally think that a 1.2 or 4 stops is minimum for outdoors if you don't need to shoot wide open.
whats the difference between 23.94p vs 24p? awesome video helped me alot
ShootsDenBrah it’s actually 24p and 23.98 or more accurately 23.976.
24p is generally the frame rate used to “film” movies. 23.98 is widely used to the same effect but mathematically allows for the conversion to 29.97 which has been the standard frame rate in NTSC countries to distribute television programming.
It’s a rabbit hole. If I think about it too much myself I still get confused sometimes.
@@theC47 oh ok haha. just wondering if it'll make a vast difference when choosing my frame rate in xt3
ShootsDenBrah Nope. We all shoot 23.98
11:33 how fast does my card need to be?
AF-C
AF mode -> multi area
Only the center can focus.
The right side on the left is not focused.
Can you help us with this?
This is my first time using Fujifilm. Maybe it's a bad thing, but...
Please refer to the test video. @Jk64
Hey Jim, which lens do you think would be best to shoot interviews with the X-T3? I'm thinking of a 50 f.2...
50 would be an OK choice but do you have the 18-55 kit lens?
@@theC47 Yes I do and I like it. After doing some test shots with my mannequin head, I felt that I was too close on the subject, even on the long end. I guess I'm looking for something, "special"..lol
Peter Foggy OK. I’m a bit confused what do you mean by too close on the subject? The 18-55 can hit that 50mm focal length but is a slower lens. 2 Stops. Are you looking for shallower depth of field or a different focal length?
@@theC47 Forgive me Jim. I think I'm guilty of thinking out loud (while underestimating how blown away I am with this camera). My daily driver is a Sony Fs7ll with both fujinon lenses and of course I have used the 18-55 for interviews all of the time. I got the XT3 mainly for gimbal purposes and got carried away...lol. Thanks anyway!
What gimbal would you recommend? What other suggestions you have for filmmaking for the X-T3?
The Life And Times Of The Unconventional Crane 2 is inexpensive and works well. Newer ones like Ronin-S would be a great choice as well.
zhiyun crane plus is probably better
I filmed some videos of a hunt recently and upon importing them to Premiere Pro, I find the video to be very choppy. I recorded at 29fbs, 16:9 1080p 100mbps. Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you are whip panning and moving that camera quickly that might be part of it. Also, are you sure your timneline matches exactly with the frame rate you were shooting in?
To have the DR active I find that I need to have the F-log on SD film sim and HDMI, all the rest DR greyed out...what settings do I need to have in order to have the DR active which I want. I am not using an external monitor
Tom Gibson it depends on your ISO settings. The higher your iso the more options are available. No idea why
Many cameras remap dynamic range above and below middle gray based on ISO.
I just got this camera, and I finished recording a lecture, and found that the 30 minute video recording limitation is happening for this camera. I was under the impression that this camera could go beyond that (like 1.5 hours or so). Is there a way to get this camera to go past 30 min recording?
Unfortunately no. Where did you read that?
@@theC47 I bought the camera at Henry's, and the guy selling it said that it would create multiple files, but they would be seamless when thrown into the editor. So you would get 30 minute clips back-to-back-to-back, each of which would line up properly. I tried recording a lecture yesterday that was an hour and a half long, it recorded the first 30 minutes then turned off completely. All the batteries
JonTopping Unfortunately he gave you misinformed information. Only way around that limit is an external recorder.
i want to make a VIDEO time lapse of the sunset with my XT-3. i want to shoot 4k 10 bit video in aperture priority like i can do with my Sony a7r2. then im going to speed up the video to get the smoothest movement. my question is, what settings to i have to enable/disable in order to have aperture priority in video so that as the light gets dimmer the aperture is opened smoothly and slowly like my Sony does
Cloud9Photography There’s a lot that I know how to do but I’m honestly not a time lapse person. I'd hit up some other people about this one. Sorry.
Take a timelapse and make a video of it in post. If you video the sun, you will burn a track across your sensor and you'll be buying a new camera.
@Jamie Fenner so far I have made 138 Sunset videos with my Sony a7r II where the camera was pointed directly at the Sun for 4 hours straight with no ND and my sensor isn't affected in the least lol. that's a wives tale. ive done sun videos with other cameras too and never once had a issue.
@@cloud9photography126 That's great news! Thanks for letting me know.
@@jamiefenner9443 no problem you really don't have to be afraid of the Sun when it comes to a camera I've done it with a 600 millimeter lens and a 2 x teleconverter attached as well and even with that magnification that never harmed my sensor
with my XT3 I seem to be unable to put it in AF-S in video recording mode; the display says AF-C even when the front dial is on S ; can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks in advance!
Because you have eye/head AF selected too.
@@melvinvanderstylen As far as I am aware you can't use AF-S in video mode, only AF-C and M
Hi, is it possible to record video to both sd cards simultaneously? For Back Ups?
Unfortunately not at this time. I’m hoping there might be a chance in a future firmware upgrade but not sure at all.
@@theC47 thanks for uour answer, thats a shame but if they fix it with firnware I would buy 2 xt3s immediatly👍
@@AlexanderCornel another thing i was mildly disappointed with was the lack of an option for 1:1 aspect ratio foe video recording. bought this camera last week, i am extremely happy. it's like a mini fs7 in my bag at all times. cannot recommend it enough - the Sony full frame zombie horde is out of their minds to ignore this camera and it's lenses.
Thanks. At what focal length does the kit reach F4?
40.7mm
Does anyone know why in video mode the lowest iso setting is 320. How do I get it to 100?
If your dynamic range is set to 100% when using film simulations it can go down to 160 ISO
How do you change movie recording to manual as mine defaults to auto?
If you watch the whole video you should be in manual mode. What is defaulting to auto? What function? If dials are off of A and you focus is set to M you will be fully manual. You can also set white balance to something other than Auto.
Thanks Jem! What head do you have on that hi-hat?
802jay Benro S2H. No longer made unfortunately. It’s great for mirrorless.
why does the xt3 have such harsh exposure changes when in aperture priority mode...i cant even video a sunset to speed it up later in post like i do with my sony A7rii
without it flashing so badly as the sun set and the light got progressively dimmer....i was using the 16mm f1.4
I’m not sure as I haven’t done that shot with the camera. Have you made sure both firmware for camera body and lens are up to date? Is there any other auto mode that also might be messing it up?
@@theC47 well this problem comes during video shooting ...as the sky gets darker the camera decreases the shutter speed and that makes a blink on this camera where it doesnt do that on my sony a7rii....i got the fuji for the 10bit 422 to eliminate banding but with this blinking every time the shutter speed changes its useless
@@theC47 heres an example of what im talking about.....-----> ua-cam.com/video/zusw9wEr9zM/v-deo.html
I see it. I also see artifacts in the shot a few seconds in. How about you lock aperture and shutter and try auto ISO? Again, not the type of video I normally shoot.
@@theC47 hmmmmm id try that but id fear that if i let ISO control the exposure ill get more and more grain progressively as the sun sets....its frustraiting lol
What lens would you recommend for interviews?
Ethereal Source The 18-55 is a great lens. Use it as a variable prime and you should be good to go for interviews.
damn it, get to it

Why 23.98 rather than 24p?
True 24 is for cinema but most shoot 23.976 (rounded up to 23.98), as that’s the frame rate that plays well with NTSC broadcast. As 29.97 was the main frame rate for ages in the States, 23.98 goes into that frame rate when do a conversion very nicely. Big topic. Rabbit hole. That said, most people when they refer to 24 are usually shooting 23.98
16-55 f2.8 is much better lens for video than 10-24 and 18-55 because of low signal/noise ration and better details. OS is only for stills not for videos!
Anton,
I'm not totally clear on your comment. Sure, the 16-55 is a better lens and has a constant aperture. What do you mean by signal to noise ratio regarding these lenses? And what is OS? The OIS? It most definitely does work for video with the 18-55. I have the lens and the X-T3 and it isn't just for stills.
Yeah, that statement doesn't make any sense. IF he's talking about light transmission, that's pretty obvious but not everyone is shooting in low light or needs that depth of field, so that's personal preference issue. One lens does not rule them all. First year film student comment about OIS being only for stills I had a good laugh at that..@@theC47
Bro how yo open my menu for more video setting
dinesh limbu Make sure your dial is in movie mode and then just arrow down.
What lens did you shoot this video on?
Canon 24-70 f/2.8 V1 and Canon 70-200 IS f/4 V1
theC47 is there a lens that’s equivalent for the Fuji xt3?
The 16-55 f/2.8 for the 24-70. The 50-140 f/2.8 for the 70-200. There is also a 16-80 f/4 coming this year. That will basically be a 24-120.
Why do you choose 23.98 vs 24?
Ariel Estulin That is a big question probably best answered by your own research. But a short answer is that frame rate is based on an old USA TV color frame rate and is pretty much the standard used for all video production in the USA. I’m a pro sound mixer doing ads and shorts for web and TV for the last 8 years and I have never been asked even once to use a frame rate other than 23.98 FPS. Recently I have heard that because there is virtually no reason to keep using 23.98 since so much content is streamed or shown on digital projectors or HDTV screens that the effects houses for major films are asking for true 24 FPS and this has been done on Marvel films. This is because the effects guys want an integer number of frames per second to manipulate rather than a fractional number. Expect to see 24 FPS replace 23.98 over the next few years.
why is this video so soft?
Not the best lens I was using. Bad copy that I am trying to return. Also relied on AF and that's not always a good idea.
Thanks for this video! I was wondering if you have noticed shifts in magenta, as discussed in the top comments in this video about the X-T3? ua-cam.com/video/VikU8JP8QWg/v-deo.html
I've been thinking about this camera but got a little bit concerned about that. Thanks!
the bigger the tripod the bigger the...
