[@GamersNexus]

It was awesome meeting you guys! Thanks for the education on DSLRs vs. Mirrorless (and everything else). I'm really impressed with how fast you cut down the hours of off-topic rambling into such a fun video. Also, thermal testing on cameras sounds like a super fun challenge. I don't know how useful that information is to the camera world, but I'm curious to hear what your viewers think. It'd be fun to collaborate on something like that! And for viewers, Gerald and Patrick are the real deal! Super knowledgeable and very helpful in teaching me more about studio gear. Thanks again for stopping by. Now to go overheat a camera...

[@BrownieX001]

Newer cameras have so many over heating issues. I would love to see proper results on those instead of reviews where they say "video recording for 30mins made the camera hot but not terrible. After an hour it gave heat warning and turned off." that kind of thing is useful if you know what you plan on doing. But it's not specific.

[@geraldundone]

Nicest reply of all time.

[@impatrickt]

you're a legend. thanks for being a great host to us!

[@user-cu4dm3ip3i]

As cameras get more compact overheating tests will become more and more relevant. Collaborate on the soon to be announced Sony A7CII. I'd love to see it.

The 4K 60 really stands out on GN, in a good way. I think part of what sells it is that super crisp title animation. You see every bit of the 4K 60 in that title, and it sets the stage for the rest of the video. It’s not for every channel, but it really works well for GN in my opinion.

[@ThanhThanh-it1pm]

4k30 or 4k 24p work well too. Tech channel dont need the specific fps

[@thatcherfreeman]

Ah, but a channel with the word "gamer" in it needs 60fps. It's the gamer framerate.

[@mynameissang]

Yeah, seeing the intro animation in non-60 fps was really jarring here

[@madfinntech]

60 fps live-action footage is a waste of space in my opinion. Video can still be 60 fps though with 60 fps animations and gameplay footage even if live action was shot at 30 fps and look more natural if paired with realistic motion blur achieved by 180 degree shutter rule.

I did some analysis on the data presented at 24:04 and it does appear to be 104 data points randomly distributed between 1 and 2500 and then sorted randomly. There initially looked to be a bias against values under 500, but plotting a trendline shows an almost flat distribution weight and therefore an R^2 of 0.9937. The excel rand() function gives similar results.

[@WesPerry]

That supercut of Gerald explaining the difference between mirrorless and DSLR is one of my favourite things ever.

[@Havanu81]

You guys really hit it off. Steve often has this "angry" energy, which is kind of endearing because he just cares so much about what he's doing. But seeing him relax like this, just having fun and joking around, made this collab pretty epic.

[@THE-X-Force]

He's not angry .. just really disappointed.

[@RibombeeTeacher]

I dunno about angry energy tbh, I think it's more of 'to the point' energy. It's often why I like watching Steve's videos considerably more than other tech spaces, because he doesn't spout unnecessary fluff.

[@jvandervyver]

I always got the impression Steve is a very assertive guy, to the point. In this video he comes across almost shy (not in a bad way), almost eager to please. Very different perspective for sure. Really enjoyed it. Definitely drives home to me that he goes into work mode and pushes himself when required. Whereas this is clearly closer to his personality.

[@the_undead]

​@@jvandervyverwhen someone completely shifts their behavior as dramatically as Steve has done here, would that means is they're not being genuine, It means you don't see who they really are and you only see who they want you to see because they only care about themselves. This is the politician move. This is why no one smart trusts politicians because it's the exact same thing. You only see the side. They want you to see. You only see the story they want you to believe. At least if you believe anything they have to say

[@ServeTheHomeVideo]

So COOL! The AZ filming trip Steve was mentioning might have been the one I was sitting one row in front. He is totally right. Phoenix AZ 115-118F and Austin at 107F with humidity and 120F+ cameras die. Even the FX3 will overheat in minutes in Austin or Phoenix if it is not in AC.

[@ChillBuilds]

I have a feeling "it's better, more, the number is larger" could be a great meme SPECIFICALLY for Gamers Nexus. Also, these -nerd-explaining-to-nerd- cuts are fantastic.

[@Lurker-dk8jk]

Gerald's chemistry with the TechTubers I follow is amazing. Was waiting for the clipboard shot and wasn't disappointed. Instant Sub. Thanks, Gerald!

[@chrisbrockhurst]

I want to live in that chamber.

[@EposVox]

That's just... too much light lol

[@TheJohnnyFictionShow]

For the HVAC noise, check the alignment of the blower and fan motor pulleys. Also reduce the fan speed to flow just enough CFM to balance the heat load. Not sure what your baseline humidity is but be mindful that slowing the fan speed will reduce humidity which is something to consider in an ESD sensitive environment.

[@JeffMacKinnon]

There isn't a lot a tenant can do except request the landlord to make those adjustments. I think they should spend a bit more time pre-cooling the space and dialing in their lighting so the temp doesn't go crazy once they start shooting. It would save money on the utility bill too :)

[@TheJohnnyFictionShow]

@@JeffMacKinnon This assumes we understand the terms of @GamersNexus lease agreement. In any event, my suggestions could be requested and implemented at the landlord's discretion. However, I'll go a bit further and bet that GN is operating under a Triple Net Lease (NNN) and has assumed responsibility for HVAC. Such terms are favorable in commercial real estate because proper HVAC load calculations must account for heat load variables from tenant-installed equipment/appliances and the number of occupants. Since a tenant’s needs can change significantly over the duration of their lease, such as potentially requiring a higher capacity HVAC, the NNN Lease is the least restrictive option. Without an NNN lease, a tenant's prospects are not only limited by the capacity of the landlord’s provided HVAC, but the tenant could be liable if their HVAC demands exceed the provided system's rating and contribute to failure. Additionally, GN’s substantial construction requirements and capital improvements to the building, including mechanical changes as shown in their recent tour of the new semi-anechoic chamber (HVAC Muffler/Manifold), seem best suited for a Triple Net Lease.

[@teletesselator]

1. You can create a digital filter to eliminate the AC noise. You can also purchase an electronic filter for the same (not as good tho). 2. You can add custom firmware to your camera in order to eliminate the 30min. record time-limit. 3. Keep buying the official Sony batteries if you like your cameras. ;)

[@redgopnik2227]

[@Crivicus]

Great video as ever! Steve surprising Gerald simply by having such old gear makes it. The anechoic room is awesome it will be interesting to see what full videos from inside will be like. You should totally get Gamers Nexus to do some temperature testing for camera gear - it can be such a problem in hot (and extremely cold) locations that it can genuinely make a difference to peoples choice of what to buy for cameras, lights and even for fittings and fixtures being too hot or cold to touch and use.

[@cyphre]

I'm always watching KZbin on my TV, with 7.3 surround sound. That HVAC system was quite annoying in the video, and I haven't even calibrated my 3 subs, to be that much higher, than the other speakers. 4-6 dB, if I remember correctly.

Such a great and fun video with this meeting of the minds. I'd love proper camera thermal testing as there's little info out there that's reliable. Good points on the lack of necessity to shoot 60fps (makes sense if you are intercutting with game footage otherwise not), the overkill lighting setup and how some of these hard surfaces would benefit from acoustic treatment.

[@ronaldmmiller]

Nicely done! I enjoy this series.

[@ScottJWaldron]

Great video! 11:10 Overheating does need more coverage because cameras can have amazing specifications but in practice limitations like this can be really frustrating. I'm seeing that right now with a Nikon Z30 I picked up recently when outputting 4k through HDMI for a good amount of time. You'd think it could output HDMI forever doing that with a DC coupler (no battery heat being generated) but sadly not the case.

[@TheReal_ist]

What ive found is that if u really do a great job with your content and it shows how much care and love youve put into it. Then a 30, 40 damn even a 60 minute video can feel like nothing.
