My 2024 Filmmaking Gear

[@BrockRoberts]

What gear are you guys using in 2024?

[@threethroneproductions5498]

Canon C70 and I am not planning to change it anytime soon.

[@BrockRoberts]

@@threethroneproductions5498 nice!!

[@redonebeatbox]

R5C / Sigma 24-70 / RS3 Pro are my main go-tos

[@JungleFilmz]

r5c

[@trashbag8124]

Really considering this camera, love the filmic look. Stuck between getting a hybrid (leaning towards the canon r5c) or just getting the c70 and saving to get a photo camera (maybe r6ii) as a b-cam. Also canon has 2 new cinema cameras coming this year so now I’m more unsure.

[@BrockRoberts]

The C70 is one of the best “affordable” true cinema cameras out there and I think will be for the next few years regardless of what Canon comes out with. I run the R6ii & C70 combo and it’s great! R5C is great too much definitely a different look.

[@Alexratson]

Nicely done! I am also quite content with the C70 for the foreseeable future. Such a workhorse.

[@BrockRoberts]

Thanks!! Agreed! It’s a beast!

[@RedStar89]

Don't buy if you don't need to. Use what you have to the fullest thats the way. And when the time comes to invest you know its a good investment and you will not regret it

[@BrockRoberts]

Agreed!

[@Abdi_Mohamed_]

C70 in the right colourist hands is a deadly combination On a baby R6 but aspire to own one c70

[@BrockRoberts]

No doubt!! R6 is killer too!

[@ronaldroberts9555]

Love my C70, never getting rid of it

[@BrockRoberts]

I’m right there with you!

[@finnybflyin]

Akaso Brave 7 Action Cam, DJI Mini 3 and 4 Pro and Air 3. Haven' gotten a Cannon yet, but that will be my b'day present to myself in March. 😎👍

[@BrockRoberts]

Nice!! Sounds like a great kit!

[@MikeEdwardsphotography]

Good stuff fam. Back in 2023 I sold off a bunch of gear, in order to downsize a bit. I regret most, selling my 85mm EF f/1.4. Amazing lens. SO my kit right now is pretty basic, but covers all my needs. Canon R5 and C100 Mark II with a variety of lenses. Thanks for sharing your kit.

[@BrockRoberts]

It’s one of my favorites for sure! It would definitely be hard for me to get rid of haha sometimes basic is better!! If it works…it works!

[@GabrielScindian]

The C70 is a monster.

[@BrockRoberts]

Agreed!!

[@jacobsnightmare1807]

Great, great content!! Thank you. Im looking into getting a C70 as I'd like to start getting into some solo filmmaking projects. So obviously I am about to spend a decent amount of money, so in your opinion, what would be the lens you would start out with from a filmmaking perspective. I realize a lot comes into play here, but just looking at a good first lens that can cover a lot of, or enough, ground. I do love anamorphic, but that probably is not the first lens I want...lol. Thanks again andIi definitely subscribed!!

[@BrockRoberts]

Thanks for the kind words!! I’d personally go with a 24-70mm of some kind. Really is the best all around. Or even Canon’s new 24-105 1.8!

[@jacobsnightmare1807]

@@BrockRoberts Thank you so much for the quick reply!! I will look into both of these!!

[@BrockRoberts]

@@jacobsnightmare1807 absolutely!

[@littletheatrefilms5825]

Love your channel. Also a c70 user. Any suggestions on bags?

[@BrockRoberts]

Appreciate it! I primarily use pelican cases these days. Occasionally I’ll use my manfrotto bag. Great size for the C70

[@EddieWoodsRemnantOutreach]

I'm using the R5C but I may get the C70 later this year as my main, with the R5C being my B and Gimbal Cam. I do a lot of client interviews with corporate work, and going to be doing a few personal doc projects. And having a dedicated Gimbal cam... I just don't like moving my camera from a tripod to a gimbal back to a tripod back to a gimbal... And I don't mean in one project, I mean at all lol

[@BrockRoberts]

Yeah the R5C is great! I definitely think the C70 is the best for filmmaking and videos. R5C is great if you want photos & video or full frame.

[@EddieWoodsRemnantOutreach]

@@BrockRoberts Yeah I do Photography and Video for my clients. Many people I follow won't use the C70 because of the super 35 but, my B-Cam now is an EOS R with a Ninja V and to shoot that 4K, well everyone knows. And before I got the R5C, my B-Cam on Client work was a T6i, so, I'm use to crops and don't have a prob with them. Just move back lol

[@BrockRoberts]

@@EddieWoodsRemnantOutreach the best way to use the C70 is with the speed booster. It gives you a full frame look and really doesn’t have many noticeable downsides. I do it 99% of the time. It’s fantastic.

[@threethroneproductions5498]

Thank God I found someone who is not a gimbal fan. Though there are times you need a gimbal, I won't use it if I can get away without it. Great video and by the way can you please clean your C70? 😉

[@BrockRoberts]

For sure! Definitely times where you need a gimbal but generally I’m not a fan. I’m sorry 😅 I noticed that on the edit. Saw dust from the last shoot I had haha
