This is the kind of gear video that I actually find valuable! =) Because it’s so much about practical considerations.

The best thing for short term smoke/fog effects is an IWI smoke signaler.

@MarcusRFilms same here!!!! Probably could've wrote that better haha I'm not complaining, just motivating myself to get started on KZbin. I love sharing my work but not so good infront of a cam

I like how Condor Blue is considered “ mid level “ yikes. I have a bit of Condor Blue stuff, I love it. But in my eyes it’s high end AF!! Keep it all in hard cases. I’m down in the Neewer / small rig trenches. 😢

If anyone wants some self-adhesive wraps that are way cheaper than those ridiculously priced f-stop ones, ULANZI makes some that are $10-15. I own a couple of the ULANZI and a handful of Domke and I much prefer the ULANZI.

I second Ulanzi. I have one and it can come in handy to wrap a lens that you throw into a loose bag.

How does the smoke machine's oil do on wood floors and your equipment? Any serious residue left over, or just clean up with a damp cloth?

@LucForsyth 2 ай бұрын

Not so far. It’s a lot more sealed than a normal smoke machine, and I don’t think it’s going to spill unless something goes seriously wrong. Have only used it in interview situations so far and haven’t really beaten it up much, but so far no mess!

@@LucForsyth Awesome, I work in a dance studio, so quick and cheap way to add some smoke would make for fun video effects, as long as our floors are clean!

Kondor Blue gets my vote. I’ve got some of their accessories and they’re super nice.

Some info you left out. Peak Design tripod has a lifetime warranty so the two tripods you destroyed were probably replaced. Ulanzi is a 2 year warranty I believe. I own both and I like both but if you managed to destroy the PD tripod, your work will probably destroy any of these smaller tripods eventually and you wont be getting a new one from Ulanzi 5 years form now. I noticed that the carbon PD tripod doesnt flex and slide like the Ulanzi travel one does. I still like both for different reasons but I started to take the PD more often due to a stable feel unless its for video camera movement. Just wanted to point this out since these foreign brands tend to mail influencers free products and people are more prone to speak positive for brand deals.

Luc Forsyth, what car mount do you rely on? There are many car mounts available and I have to make up my mind.

I’m using mainly the iFootage Spider Crab. It’s really well made, relatively affordable, and it’s been very reliable for me. Can hold up to 66lbs apparently, but I just use it with a mirrorless for the most part. It’s not what you’d see on a Hollywood set, and it’s far from the most premium out there, but for my needs it’s been perfect

Haven't finished the video, but the Sirui lens shape in the silhoutte is so noticeable lol. Idk it could just be me, but I feel like their lens shape is like the notch for iPhones. The shape is so memorable.
