Thanks! :)

No I stick to fixed ISO.

Thanks for watching 👍

That’s correct - it’s Bratislava. Thanks for watching! :)

@@MIGMORRIS111 thanks for watching!

Falcam if you’re are in their f22/f38 quick release system, easy to switch from horizontal to vertical. Harsh to grip (a bit sharp edges). Smallrig a bit more versatile, very good and comfy to hold (full cage).

I guess that’s a general limitation of most Bluetooth based devices/function, which allow only to be connected/paired to one device at once. Thanks - you’re welcome :)

I agree, the lens support doesn’t work and is half baked.. Yes, the focus rod isn’t ideal, but I got used to it and I sometimes use the rod attachment of my cage.

@@captainfilmmaking Which one did you purchase? The Rod attachment to the cage? Thank you Do you have a tutorial on how to get the focusing by half pressing the Record or M dial, that seems amazing but I cannot find any tutorials on it.. Thanks!!

@@captainfilmmaking Most Rod attachments are 15mm Not 12mm, do you know where I can get one that works with 12mm Rods? Thanks!! You're the only KZbinr I have seen mention these things and the Fcousing with the triggers on the RS3 as well. Cannot find anywhere to see how to set that up... Would love it

@@ekphotography I have to Smallrig cages for the FX30/FX3. The Smallrig half cage (which seems to be discontinued..) has a fix installed rod clamp, and the Smallrig FX30 full cage (amzn.to/4hzzJ7y) has a mounting point to fit Smallrigs rod adapter/clamp (amzn.to/48v94F7), which you can add as needed. Both options feature standard 15mm rod support.

@@ekphotography The "tap to focus" should work if you've connected your cam via Bluetooth to your RS3 in the same way, as you can start/stop recording via the red record button of your RS3. Im not aware if there are some limitations to that function, when it comes to "tap to focus" in regard to the RS3. If so, I think it has to with your camera, but if the tap to focus works on your camera, it should also translate to the record button of the RS3 too. In addition I use the M1 button to change between AF/MF. For that you have to set your function button #1 in your camera to this particular setting - AF/MF toggle, in this case. And then also set the M1 button in the RS3 settings to take over the cameras function button assignment.

In the night scenes I didn’t, because it was quiet dark. In brighter scenarios you do need a ND because f1.2 is very fast/bright. Otherwise you‘d have to crank your shutter.

@@captainfilmmaking understood, thanks

Oh, thank you! :)

Mhhh.. I would say yes, but I’m not 100% sure about that. Have you tried to contact DJI support? They should be able to give you a valid answer.

oh, thanks - I came up with it by myself. Best regards

@@captainfilmmaking You are vert talented

@@KALINAmoto That is very kind of you - thanks for the compliment!

Thanks for the feedback! 👍

Captain!! I have to agree with you on this one Cap, I don't own the 16 or 75 but I have the 3 Set (24,35,55) and honestly I almost have NEVER even touched my Tamron 17-70mm since I got them. I just cannot go back, and on top of that I even got the set on Sale on Amazon a couple months ago. I'm honestly blown away on how much value for money I feel like I'm getting from them for my level of videography. My dream is to eventually do this full time, (looking less likely) but I'm so glad I decided to take a leap of faith on these Nightwalkers. I don't regret it one bit

@@-441- I agree - a huge amount of value is provided with these lenses. If you really like your 24/35/55 just try the 16/75mm and I think you’ll be surprised that they feel even better.

@@-441- and about your dream: maybe you can get better in your filmmaking over time by doing video work you truly love and then someday it will eventually become your profession without you noticing. So keep going!

@@captainfilmmaking Thanks bredda, I really needed to hear that! Finding clients where I reside can be really difficult. Maybe I just need a change of scenery!

I can agree. The dynamic steady shot does a good job in certain scenarios, but it can not compete with a gimbal in tough situations..

Thx for the feedback 👍

Thank you very much! I use Final Cut Pro for my editing. What’s your choice for your projects?

@@captainfilmmaking I also use Final Cut Pro for editing but trial version and to be frank I really love it . I need your help I always wanted to make film and confused a lot about which software to choose whether DaVinci or fcpx or primer pro please tell me because I can purchase only one software should I consider DaVinci as all KZbinrs say it Is good for films or should I choose fcpx

@@luckybasara7784 I understand. Both are good options, if you're just starting out. FCP maybe a bit easier to learn if you're new to editing, but DR has also great features, is more innovative at the time, and it is becoming more widespread, which makes working together with others easier, if you're on the same platform. So both platforms have their pros and cons, but the software itself does not determine, if you can produce great films. The story behind your movies has nothing todo with your editing suite.

Hi, the Sigma 10-18mm is very versatile - I would go with this one. 👍

@@captainfilmmaking Thank You So much it's very Helpful to make decisions. Your video is so amazing. Laowa 9mm used I found around 300$ Sigma New : 650$

Yes, that’s the disadvantage .. if you can afford it, go with the Sigma. If you are doing real estate only, and want to save money, then the LAOWA 9mm is fine. The Sony 10-20mm f4 would be another option if you can live with the f4 for your needs.

Hi - thx for the feedback! 90% of the time I shot in SLog3. If it’s darker, S-Cinetone works also fine. Yes, usually I do the conversion - sometimes with a conversion Lut, sometimes with a specific Lut for Sony which includes both the conversion and a look, and sometimes the conversion it’s part of the film emulation - like within Dehancer Pro, which I use. I this particular case it was a standard rec709 conversion with a Phantom Lut.

That should be fine, as long as you do not do it while the camera is in direct sunlight on a hot day.

hi, the overheating is a complex topic and depends on a couple of parameters like, outside temperature, humidity, direct sunlight, wind/air movement, frame rates, rig-configuration etc. So in the end you have to be very conscious about your own shooting scenario, to determine, if it will work out for you. What I have done, is that I use an active cooling unit from Tilta as a backup. It's a bit of a workaround, but I managed to get through a whole day of shooting a wedding in very hot and humid weather, with longer takes in 4K50. The above shoot in the forest (which you see in the video) was also a rather warm day with around 30 degrees Celsius. Here we hadn't the cooling system with us, did rather short bursts of around 30sek. or 1min takes in 4K50 and the ZV-E1 did great. No overheating or temperature warning.

@@captainfilmmaking thats nice i usually shoot content which didn't cross 3 minutes max in 1 cut. thanks for sharing

@ankphotography you’re welcome. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Haha - oh, yes! :)

Hi Cale, yes - they definitely have character! I thought about getting the sniper, but wasn’t 100% sure is the autofocus is that reliable.. How is your experience with the 7Artisan?

​@@captainfilmmaking When you set the camera settings right the autofocus is fine, but I trust that a firmware update will fix that. Sometimes you just need autofocus and this is better than nothing; at least you can have two of the same focal length, one manual focus, one b-cam with autofocus. The Hope lenses have more of a clean bokeh like a Sony G Master lens, but not clinically sharp. Both Hope and Sniper lenses are sharp. If you only had one set of lenses you need to get the sharper set without the optical flaws. For my TV show I use different lenses for different story lines so you can tell by looking at the image what story line it is.

@CaleMcCollough yes, I was hesitant after sone reviews and also thought „you already own the nightwalker.. so, another set of lenses.. 🙈“ Sure - it’s always good as a backup. At the moment I‘m thinking about getting the DJI Focus Pro for my manual lenses. Maybe the sniper will be cheaper :)

@CaleMcCollough ah, cool - so you use it for your TV-production? Which cams do you pair them with?

@@captainfilmmaking ZV-E1, FX30, and A6700. AI autofocus helps.

@@cheesedrinkal hi, the BTS shoot on the FX30 was done with a Sigma 23mm f1.4 lens. 🎥

Sure - will come shortly!

Hi Cidedon, I've put the list of the rig-equipment with their respective amazon affiliate links in the video description. Best regards

@@captainfilmmaking Much love, appreciated.

Thanks! - Try to get a high exposure (bright day; curtains open; upper ISO 2500 if needed). 4K 50/60fps. Gimbal. SteadyShot “Std.” Aperture around f8 if light situation permits. - ND not required. If image is to bright use ISO 800, or close down your aperture. - Polarizer filter useful when dealing with reflections of glass surfaces. - Yes, 18-50 ok for B-Roll (use preferably the tighter end 50mm) - The best software is the one which fits your workflow. I’m already invested in FinalCut Pro, but Davinci Resolve is a good option if you’re starting. - For the time being I do not offer specific online real estate Coaching, but only 1 on 1 coaching here in Vienna. For the future online coaching calls are planned at some point. - 11mm is ok, but the Laowa 9mm is the better choice for just real estate. Sigma 10-18mm f2.8 would be also a great choice. Best regards from Austria

@@africah_beauty hi, no the environment wasn’t that challenging. About 28degree Celsius and rather short takes in 50fps. No overheating, nor high temperature warning.

@@captainfilmmaking am planing to get it for reels and short video about 40mins, the 4k 60 all-I codec.😂 so is good

@africah_beauty The quality is very impressive. 40min continuous shooting with 4K60 all-I could be challenging in warm weather. As a backup there are cooling solutions from Tilta and Smallrig available. I did a wedding yesterday in 33degree celsius and I did ok.

@@captainfilmmaking i live in kenya where temperature is 25 degree, so I can Shoot 4k 60 all-I for 30mins

Hi! - Yes, color grading is an important factor. The key is to practise and train your eye on things which look good, and over time being able to create the image you're looking for. - Creating contrast in both color and light is one of many things you to keep in mind to get better results. - Correct and a slightly higher exposure then usual is also key with the FX30 to built the base for a proper color grade. Here follow the tips, how to get a bright image in the first place. - Yes, Slog3. When in low(or lower) ight S-Cinetone also works fine. - I Also shoot in flexible ISO, but usually don't go above 2500, as the FX30 is quite prone to noise. Cine EI doesn't offer much to my workflow. Shooting in XAVC S-I does. Some de-noise in post also helps to clean up the image and improve the quality. Hope that helps a bit! Best regards

@@captainfilmmaking it helps tremendously! Thank you for taking the time to share! I will be applying!

@AerialShotsMedia you’re welcome. Let me if it worked out 👍

@@lookid thanks for watching! 👍

@@schoeferfilm Hey, vielen Dank für das Feedback! Ich schau auch regelmäßig immer auf deinen Kanal vorbei. :) Ja, gut erkannt! Liebe Grüße aus Wien

@@martin.prazan yes, that’s exactly the outcome of my testing. If it’s bright enough you can get away with it.. but when the light isn’t sufficient, the increased noise level is quite noticeable.

Why not get a wider lens?

You mean because of the cropping? The point is, irrespective of the focal length you loose resolution and image quality and increase noise due to the cropping.

@@captainfilmmaking Yes. I have a sony zv-e1 and thinking of getting the laowa 10mm f2.8 for real estate shooting. Many apartments in my country are really tiny. And I dislike using gimbals.. so with the dynamic active stabilisation, it provides gimbal like stabilisation and a view of about 13mm - how much resolution and image quality degrading do you think there is?

I do real estate too. If it’s not too bright - and in real estate it often isn’t that bright - you’ll notice a degrade in image quality and an increased level of noise. You maybe can get away without a gimbal, but I do quite a bit of movement (long push ins by walking through a room etc.). According to my testing, the gimbal is much superior in those shooting scenarios - and the image quality is better to. I shoot with the SONY12-24 f4G btw.

Die Fragen sind übrigens alle auf die fx30 bezogen :)

@@GoblinhutDE hi, - Ich bleibe bei ISO800 bzw. 2500. Vom Licht her benötige ich eher die 2500. - WB bleibt im großen und ganzen ähnlich, kann sich aber ändern, wenn das Kunstlicht innen stark variiert. - Ich würde sehr stark 4K empfehlen. Das HD Bild der FX30 ist im Vergleich zum HD der FX3/ZV-E1 relativ schlecht. - ND eher nein, weil es innen oft eh am (Low)Light scheitert, und ich auf Grund der Tiefenschärfe ohnedies auf F8 oder so abblende. Ggf. eher einen Polariser für Glasflächen/Spiegelungen. Liebe Grüße

@@captainfilmmaking Okay verstehe vielen dank dir! Benutzt du dann den XAVC HS 4K Modus? Meine SD Karte kann glaube ich nur den verwenden.

@GoblinhutDE ich verwende den XAVC-S weil in PAL es dabei mehr Auswahl an Framerates gibt als bei HS

Yes, it clearly has its limitations and doesn’t prevent the cam-operator to move smoothly.. Are you using a gimbal too with the ZV-E1?

@@captainfilmmaking Weebil S.

Hi, in Flexible ISO. Cine EI bietet in meinem Augen keinen Mehrwert. Liebe Grüße

@@captainfilmmaking Okay danke dir vielmals! Dann aber auch im S-Gamut3/S-Log3 statt dem S-Gamut3.Cine/S-Log 3 Modus oder?

@IDA-Media s-3gamut.cine Unterschied ist aber kaum auszumachen (zumindest für mich)

@@josepagan5721 right - it‘s his biggest victory! :)

Thanks for the feedback 👍

@@thegreatdanton9203 thanks for watching!

@@toninoaldajani hi, yes in 60fps the quality is still very good - only in 120fps you see a drop in quality, because then the image isn’t downsampled anymore, but a 1:1 readout in 4k.

@@captainfilmmaking thank you for your replying, you shooting in 60 4 k ? Its enough for slow motion ? What you think is the best for real state and resturant ?

@toninoaldajani 4k60fps (or 50fps, if you’re shooting in Pal) is perfectly fine for real estate. For a Restaurant you may include b-roll shoots from the food or cooking. Here you may included super-slowmo shots

@@IDH-m9b Vielen Dank Ilias, nein - ich fotografiere relativ wenig. Die FX30 ist für meine Zwecke ok, aber natürlich nicht vergleichbar mit einer wirklich Foto- oder Hybrid Kamera. Die A7IV wäre ein guter Kompromiss, wenn du sie auch für Videozwecke als B-Cam zu deiner FX30 verwenden möchtest.

Great to have you on board! 👍
