They aren’t using sandbags and I don’t think there is any mention of how to safely use the knuckle. I really wish they would take this video down because it’s going to lead to someone getting hurt or gear getting destroyed.

Probably a good idea for you guys to learn how to actually use basic equipment before putting out an educational video attempting to teach others about that equipment. If anybody watching this video actually takes note and copies the way, for example, you get the grip head mounting backwards (you've put the grip arm inside the baby pin receiver that's supposed to be on the baby pin on the top riser, and somehow managed to make it even worse by loading it so the load will rotate left and loosen) or don't load the weight over the longest leg (dangerous) then they're going to have to unlearn what you've shown them. There are quite a few decent videos where you can learn the basics... Grip Tips and Vistek are two channels that come to mind.

@TannerGwaltney3 жыл бұрын
Is there a reason your grip heads are backward from standard use? Typically the baby pin on the light stand would go into the straight receiver side of the grip head and the extension/book arm would go into the circular part of the head. Doing it your way, the weight would be pulling it in the loosening direction (unless you had the tightening knob on the left), which isn't safe.

@ihashup2 жыл бұрын
Lights and large modifiers should not be mounted directly to the grip arm but instead should be mounted to a baby pin which is held by the knuckle attachment at the end of the grip arm. All the weight should be on the tallest leg on the turtle stand and the grip arm should be attached on the right side in order for the weight to tighten the knuckle instead of loosen it. Sandbags over the largest leg should always be used if you are booming the grip arm outside of the center of gravity of the stand itself.
@SebasSant873 жыл бұрын
I think there are a couple ideas missing here. First is that your boom pole must be aligned with the longer leg to avoid it from tilting and falling. The second one is that the “thightning knob “ that holds the boom arm must go to the right side. This way if the setup is too heavy it will auto tight with the weight instead of loosening up. TBH This vid felt more like “fun things that you can do with your expensive tube “

Does a c stand exist that has a load capacity greater than 22 pounds or 10 kg. I'm asking because the weight of the Aputure 3oo x + light dome 2 is 21.7 pounds ... So, any sand bags or counter weights would exceed the stands load capacity.

@gbunton3 жыл бұрын
Never mount a light on the end of the stand without a head and a pin if you do it the way you show the light will always spin no amount of tightening is going to keep it from spinning. One solution I've done in the past is to get a grinder and grind a flat spot at the end of the pole and screw your light on that flat spot it will keep it in place better, but ideally you want a 4-6 in pin

There's a gobo head on which the baby pin goes. They didn't use it. The light in the gobo/baby pin configuration gives more options and stability. The way he put it requires over tightening the light onto the arm so it doesn't slip and point downwards, thus requiring over tightening and denting the aluminum arm. He has the gobo right there! Please please DO NOT follow this unsafe video. ... not to mention the weight is not over the long leg, and they are not sand weighted. Mediocre, un safe video. Learn before you try to teach
@Pepingco2 жыл бұрын
@@talentphotography That's what I thought when I saw him mount on the wrong end. I thought that side had a built in baby pin, so I had to ask. But I agree. What this video shows is something deeply dangerous and why I asked the question. Sadly, it wasn't answered. After looking again, it really does look like a flat surface and no safety indentation for the light's screw to fix into. Thanks for clarifying my suspicions. This is a very worrying video.
