I have had to check my peli 1535 (smaller by a bit) under a plane on 2 occasions to small airports in Virginia and Durango Colorado. I had it loaded with lithium ion batteries and they made me hold them in my lap. Tried all the tricks and it didn’t work. Even checked on one of them and it did in fact not fit overhead. So be mindful of how big the plane is going to be. It was a pain for sure. I have started to add camera bodies and glass to backpacks just to be safe for travel gigs

We actually literally had our first experience of an overhead bin being too small last week after posting this haha. We had even flown into this extremely small airport before and not had issues, but the bins were smaller this time. We ended up strapping one of them into an empty seat, and shoving the other under the seat in front of us and putting our feet on top of it. The stewardess wasn’t stoked about it but I told her there was NO WAY we could check them. I guess the play would be having an even smaller carry-on case if you KNOW you’re going to a super small airport, and keeping batteries and the absolute essentials in there. But you live and you learn I suppose lol

to comment on the battery stuff, I just tested a very similar setup (fx30 w/ atomos shinobi) using a small rig npf970 and had a total runtime of around 4:30 with the monitor at max brightness honestly pretty decent and the npf battery seems to be about the size of that v mount, might be heavier tho not sure
@Gloryvisuals
@Gloryvisuals 2 ай бұрын
That's awesome! So are you using the NPF970 directly attached to the Shinobi? Doesn't seem there's another option without the D-Tap on the battery. Totally subjective to my own opinion, but I MUCH prefer having the battery off-monitor as it balances much better for handheld and glidecam work and has a lower center of gravity, but if you're on a gimbal with a monitor attached separately I suppose it wouldn't matter. But that's the great thing about rigs these days -- you can build it out to suit your shooting style! Thanks for watching and commenting!
