[@DawidDoesTechStuff]

How about building a $20,000 canon m50 setup?

[@mondobytes]

You hear that Potato Jet?

Here comes real challenge 😀

[@PotatoJet]

Armando, why did you have to upload the video in 4k? Now everyone can see my pimple with too much clarity!

[@mondobytes]

Haha especially the top cam when you look up 😂

[@legendp2011]

After 10:05 PotatoJet be like..... IDGAF what you're saying..jus keep saying.... M sleepy AF...!!

[@avalanwa]

Potatoe Jet makes any informative video engaging and funny. His charisma is unparalleled.

[@srapko]

These Potato Jet collaboration are what's Up. Like Peter and Matti collaborations... Y'all should do a team battle or cinematic competition.

[@ridiculousbass]

I love all four of them but Peter and Matti would smash Potato and Armando. They all have strengths in different places though.

[@prabijshrestha]

Wow I think this will be coolest battle in history ..

[@BestAudiovisualTricks]

I love this dynamic duo’s chemistry. It’s the American version of Matti and Peter. Like if you agree! ❤️

[@tuba4949]

Thanks for your video.Thumbs up! Please, what is the device connecting the LCD viewfinder to the 15mm rod??

[@nickboozang8454]

I'm late to this video but I want to say there is some gold in here. Great video and super informative for those interested in the camera department. Thanks guys!

[@momchilyordanov8190]

I do not have $2k for a "rig", but still watch these. It's entertainment for people who like cameras :)

I love the C200.... I wish I owned one 😩 Keep up the great videos Armando, they’re very entertaining!!

[@JosephDTranPhotography]

Love the light hearted interaction. Great job guys!

[@ericpaulgoldie]

YAY! So happy to watch another collaboration between two of KZbin's best creators! Keep on crushing it and thank you both!

[@ericpaulgoldie]

p.s. really love the additional low camera angle, lighting is fantastic as always and I love that you both have a great report with one another.

[@ericpaulgoldie]

p.s. suggestion for your next collaboration maybe a battle of some sorts e.g. B-Roll battle, drone battle, or something similar.

[@mondobytes]

Sounds like a fun idea! Thanks for watching will definitely keep that in mind.

[@sj_leee4995]

is this recomennded for daily vlogging and taking family videos and cats?

[@spec-productions5733]

Great collaboration. You guys work quite well together and add a lot of entertainment value; i.e., so easy to watch the entire thing and feel surprised that it was actually nearly 1/2 an hour long.

[@AlphaRakamaTech]

I can literally feel people's pockets draining minute by minute in this video. Lol

[@BCPaulVideoProd]

I'm enjoying the bromance. Keep up the good work. Very entertaining and educational.

[@DruMUSIC06]

This two is fun to watch... It just so happens that the topic is also informative. :)

[@JugglerCreative]

If I had one, I would do a daily walk outside with my Rig just to flex, and to film (sometimes) :p

[@artistandcamera3245]

How do you transport this rig? Do you build it on set or do you have a nice spacious bag with excessive padding, or what? Please let me know!

[@CoveringFish]

I’m buying a c200 soon. Have one with me in England for a documentary I shot in Holland. So stoked for this vid

[@nene2734]

Super long video that I just watched in math class🔥

[@mondobytes]

Exige Nene 😂

[@steadygumsteadygum1074]

For shoulder mount Cameras, you need Steadygum. If you care about your back and shoulder pains and need Balance and Stability. It takes the weight of the camera off up to 80% You can use SteadyGum in every situation, very quick to set up and take off.

[@jgates]

Two questions: 1. How much did the final setup weigh? 2. What setup did you use to record this video? Other C200s?

[@saulmirandaaliaga]

What an absolutely amazing video. Thnak you very much, guys!!!

[@billkujawa]

WOW Gene @ 2:02 you were actually looking UP at the A73!

[@jamesmathews243]

Matte boxes... I always use with clients. Rarely use on my personal projects hahaha... Definitely impresses clients. And yes, they are worth it just for that.

[@RevanDarkStar]

Very good video! I really appreciate what you guys are showing. The fact that you guys start from the "naked casual" camera and end with this professional looking system with all the explanations during the building process. Good job here!

[@CityStomperMedia]

I recently purchased a Varicam LT and associated rig and it's been great, and this video was a lot of help in deciding what I need and what product would be right. Could you do a video regarding tripods that can handle the weight of a rig? And how to pick the right combination of tripod legs/head?

[@SHVWNCOOPER]

at least he showed up with pants on lol

[@PotatoJet]

If that table was 6 inches taller, they would've come off.

[@SHVWNCOOPER]

​@@PotatoJet i think it should be a thing man. next time you give advice about the healthy fats and oils in like avocados or something... avo socks and boxers bruh.

[@mondobytes]

He actually showed up in Boxers 😅

[@daily_simo]

think you so much i learn a lot from you... you make me closer to the cinema filming

[@heather9s766]

What telephoto lenses can you attach to it? 200-600mm?

[@CranmanPhotoCinema]

I want to create a similar set up. Question. If the C200 has only 1 SDI out, how are you able to send signal to the Canon monitor AND the Teradek transmitter?

[@mondobytes]

CranmanPhotoCinema Canon monitor doesn't use SDI it's a proprietary cable

[@CranmanPhotoCinema]

Armando Ferreira gotcha. So my setup would be camera op on C200/Ronin w small monitor and a wireless monitor that I would be watching from. So then you’d just SDI out from the camera into the Teradek then SDI out from there into Ronin monitor and wireless monitor?

[@mondobytes]

CranmanPhotoCinema if you're not using the Canon monitor for your Gimbal you'll need to use a monitor that uses SDI pass through. Hit me up on Instagram and we can chat

[@CranmanPhotoCinema]

Armando Ferreira thanks! Same name?

[@FabrizioBalliano]

[@SPKRX]

You guys are having way too much fun. 😂 Did anyone ever tell you you should EQ out that ring in your room?

[@AdamM]

Love the collabs! Keep it up.

[@ImaginationVFXhouse]

I have been considering purchasing the lanpart battery plate but I always looked at the negative reviews where people said it fried their camera or was sending out a higher voltage than stated. I know you had a camera fry but I believe it was due to cheaper batteries you said. How would you rate the lanpart plate with good batteries also which version of the plate do you personally use and what brands apart from the one mentioned have you used regularly without any issues.

[@OfTwoLands]

C200 is such a good cam !!

[@GeekyNerdDad]

Great video! Love this set up 😍

[@mondobytes]

Thanks Larry, appreciate you stopping by 👍🏼

[@HamPower]

It’s really cool, I’m a bit of a gear-head, but I’ll think I’ll stick with my iPhone for video lol... 4K 24p with external audio recording, I’m basically like Steven Spielberg who wanted to simplify lol. Still a lot of fun either way.

[@christopherpackart]

That's be interesting to put rails, a focus puller and a matte box on my 80D and use it like that.

[@mondobytes]

Not uncommon actually, this was very popular on Canon 5D Mark II when they were used a lot in film and tv shows.

[@AFRICAHOUSESHOWTV]

HEY ARMANDO CAN I USE ATOMOS NINJA V TO RECORD STRAIGHT FROM THE C200 CAMERA INSTEAD TO DEPEND ON THE CF CARD?

Can you do something like this for the fs5 and eva1 like kinda make it a series?

[@Embalados]

nice video, by the way, why not just use autofocus? whats its limits?

Did you guys end up mounting the phone or did I miss it? Looking for a good phone mount recommendation. Loved seeing the setup process you guys took on this.

[@kidblazer16]

When are you going to release your color profiles for us Sony users that will help match Canon colors??

[@BryceKoebel]

You guys are so geeky but I love it haha! Great video guys.

[@toby8462]

Hey Armando, I was just wondering if you have saved your custom buttons on the C200 as the default or whether you have your own custom setup. Would love some insight.

[@Mattboy300]

What audio interface is that in the background?

[@deepytv]

Omg, I can't hold it! Too sexy! Awesome video man! It's really nice to see what the C200 looks like in a full cinema rig. In the ending when the outtakes played, I was like, damn that camera looks so small 😂

[@stefanthorndahl1666]

by the way, I sometimes attach a little reading lamp on the rig so you can always see your buttons. Obviously that problem is solved in the C300 MkIII and C500 MKII, but yeah, it works :)
