You LOOK healthy too. Someone has been working out! Rests and regroupings are essential no matter what work we do. You are one of my all time fave camera guys and I've learned the most from you for sure. We are all grateful you're still around
Your statement might be correct if being a UA-cam is not your job. But let be honest, the number pays expenses, and the number is the main consideration for sponsors to spend money on a UA-camr.
@@MarkAfterDark not everyone is a content creator ;) And as you can see his channel says "This channel doesn't have any content". But his point is correct. If your main source of income is UA-cam / advertising you need those numbers. The only reason people 'slow down' is because they have: a. a stable job on the side b. a second source of income (in this case co-ops with hardware vendors)
I owe my video career in no small part to you and everything I've learned on your channel over many years. You'll always have my support on this channel and any of your other endeavors! Appreciate you Caleb!
Great to see you back, Caleb! And, also thanks for sharing your journey to a healthier approach to creating content on UA-cam. I can't wait to be here for all the incredibly creative things you build!
This is what I want Caleb: Do what you find creative and fun, and if you feel that’s worth sharing. Do it. If not, go find something that brings you joy and go for it. Sincerely, A long time fan
Love this. Great job rethinking your business and priorities. Really awesome to hear some of the stuff down the pipe. You've got your priorities straight. We support you, Caleb!
Thanks for sharing so much thoughts on techniques, gear and creative processes. You are packaging it all in such a humble, grounded and encouraging way that truly inspires so many creators over the world. I’ve been following you for quite some time and I appreciate that you are posting again. Not that any of us have any right to have expectations. I’ll just stay with a big thank you. You rock. Follow your heart.
YES. Please make whatever the heck you want as long as you are making something for us to see! I feel like my technical knowledge base as a filmmaker plateaued without your videos and I was going back watching your stuff from even like 10 years ago just to soak in anything I could.
Welcome back, Caleb. It's good to see you enjoying yourself in front of the camera and I'm excited to see what comes next. You were the first channel I ever subscribed to, and I've been enjoying your content for years now. Keep up the good work.
Welcome back, Caleb! Glad to hear you're coming back and focusing on the fun of creating again and looking forward to all of the new content. Also, your table top filmmaking course looks great!
Welcome back Caleb ! We missed you….. and we do care ! In our humble opinion Caleb, you are one of the best and most enjoyable UA-camrs out there. Congratulations and best wishes for success on your new company startup. Really happy to know that you have been taking care of yourself. Warmest regards, Nathan
So many UA-camrs & camera resellers, camera stores. Owe this man..... he would make videos and cameras would go up in price or sell out 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 glad you're back
Dude, so glad to see you back and doing well. Love the philosophy of resetting our UA-camr mindset. Can’t wait to shop Camera Foundry for Cinebacks for other camers!
Your setups have always been inspiring. And given that I’m in the middle of a remodel and a rewiring of my own content creator brain, I am super excited to see what you have to share. ❤
Hey Caleb! You've very much helped me get started on my video making journey beginning years ago and I want you to know how much I appreciate that. You don't need to crank out a constant stream of videos for me to be happy with your channel. We all need to follow our passion and dreams as much as we can. I'm happy for you. Best of luck on your new endeavors!
Weird how long I've been following you, noticed I hadn't seen a new video from you in a while, went to your channel this morning (because the youtube algorithm has gotten worse, and lo and behold, you posted like 10 minutes ago at the time of me writing this. The Universe was working
You video/audio guide really helped me out. I can't tell you how many times I got "why is your video/audio so good?" Of course, making audio panels really helps too, but the initial setup is all Caleb-Approved!
So excited with your comeback! It always inspires me so much. Thanks to your videos I've been learning so many things that helped me to become a full-time UA-camr today. Thanks Caleb
So glad you're back and in a capacity you seem more excited about. Your videos have been so helpful to me, and were especially helpful to me in picking out my first professional gear purchase about 4 years ago. I haven't commented before, but I've been here for years! Thanks for all you (and other camera/film youtubers) have done to help so many of us figure out what to do, where to start and take next steps.
Welcome back. Like your new setup. The varied and quirky background style provides much needed variety. For example, I particularly like Paul McGowan's PS Audio channel and his constantly changing backgrounds.
*Congratulations on the success of your new business endeavour. 👍🏻I have been following your channel here on the Tube for several years now. I have learned alot from your videos. Your new product is intriguing, and I think you have stumbled upon a great product niche many filmmakers will want to have.🤔I wish you the best of success.*
Thanks for the update. Your channel was one of my main my go to channels as I got back into the video/film industry after about 20 years. The other two were Gerald Undone and Make Art Now. Your BMPCC4K camera guide was a God send. I completed my first documentary back in December and I'm working on my second. I couldn't have done it without ya! Thanks
Hi Caleb, as a fellow YT creator I totally understand why you needed a break, but I'm happy to see you back! Your videos have been a huge help in the evolution of my studio and I've missed your clever ideas and helpful reviews.
ha i just went through the same thing. I was was actually looking back at my channels content and i had that same problem for many years. But now, im finally in a place where im having fun with it. Welcome back!
Glad to see you back. Your Lumix camera guides were the first two products of the sort that I bought and still reference. Even the simplest of your uploads helps out an entire community of creators. Thank for sharing your time!
I‘m so happy for you, Caleb! Been following your channel for so many years. It‘s so great to see you evolve and overcome the challenges life throws at you. Thank you for being open about it!
Great to hear from you again Caleb. And nice to hear I’m not the only one struggling to find new ways to do UA-cam. Also, I love the lighting in this video. All the best, and see you when you’re ready!
Great work and video Caleb 👍😊 I still remember your video about the VG-900, and I purchased one shortly after because of it. Keep it up and I'm looking forward to more of your new content!
Thanks for the shout-out, Caleb. Glad to hear you're doing so well. Looking forward to what's next. 👍💜
Thanks Gerald. Same! As always I'm eating up these tours man.
@@dslrvideoshooter Have Gerald booked a flight to Caleb location already? )
YOU TWO :')
on behalf of the global council of UA-camrs, I must state that we did not approve of this return, but we’ll allow it, and frankly we’re excited.
facts!
Let's gooo!

😂 Miss you man!!! Hopefully our paths cross soon.
@@dslrvideoshooter count on it!

Next is Caleb talking about camera gear doing pushups 👍
UA-cam is a lot more fun when it's not about the numbers. Good for you.
Your statement might be correct if being a UA-cam is not your job. But let be honest, the number pays expenses, and the number is the main consideration for sponsors to spend money on a UA-camr.
@@zulfika_ is that why you have 9 subs?

@@MarkAfterDark it's not exactly hard to figure out.

Welcome back, excited to see what you tackle next!
take your time and do whatever makes you happy, your stuff is always interesting and amazing and frequency/making the algorithm happy isn't everything
You're an enormous part of my storytelling journey, man. Glad to see you've found more balance in your life, and stoked to see you back in my feed!
Love this. Great job rethinking your business and priorities. Really awesome to hear some of the stuff down the pipe. You've got your priorities straight. We support you, Caleb!
