The advantage of the little swinging gate in the smallring cage is that if you’re not using a separate, ‘outboard’ handle, it gives you a full ‘pinky grip’ around the bottom.

[@todddammit4628]

I've gone fully into the F38 and F22 system. It's amazing. It's honestly game changing. The speed at which I can build or tear down an entire rig is ridiculous. It makes running and gunning a breeze.

[@FastCutFilms713]

The F22 system looks fantastic. I've been using the F38 adapters for a while. But sadly as you said being one of the those already invested in a myriad of rig accessories the F22 is not a practical upgrade . Great video. Very helpful!

I love all your videos, thank you so much and keep up the good work 👍

[@thomasjmcclure]

Thanks!

[@_augvisual]

Cool man!!

[@drescobro]

Does the cable clamp on the small rig cage block the mic input?

[@FocusRocus]

On the Neewer, how does your right hand pinky feel about gripping inside the space where the battery door opens? Thank you for your helpful and informative review.

[@m4rcin847]

Yea, I return it for that reasons. Smallrig - excelent.

[@procamara359]

Can you make a comparation video between the Sony ZV e 10 and the a6700 in 4k 24 HLG3 graded and 8bit and after that in 10.bit to see the difference?

[@aperturedigitalmedia]

Yesss please

[@thomasjmcclure]

Sure! Would you wanna see specificallu zve10 vs a6700 footage, or 8bit vs 10bit footage?

[@atgfilms4229]

Could you also compare the rolling shutter! That’s my only downside to the ZVE10

[@sangrambiswal4616]

Which lens you're using to make your talking head videos ? It looks nice

[@thomasjmcclure]

The last 2 have been a Sony 20mm f1.8 on an fx30, but i also like to use a sigma 30mm f1.4 if I want a little more compression

[@Alex-qqqwe]

tilta?

[@olumidedaramola9967]

Very helpful video 🔥. Does anyone know how to remove a6700 battery door. I have battery grip from my a6600 which I'm trying to use on my a6700 but I am unable to remove the a6700 battery door.

[@luisogando8546]

Where you ever able to remove the battery door?

[@olumidedaramola9967]

@@luisogando8546 no mate i haven'table to remove the battery door on the a6700 . I did not want to damage the door . I've got the sony a7iv and I can remove the battey door easy . But the a 6700 battery door I can't. Thanks for asking

[@DSLRCARPTV]

the best is Tilta ;)

[@m4rcin847]

Not this time.

[@cyvidal10]

does the falcam quick release locks tightly? does it not shake even a little bit?

[@thomasjmcclure]

it does, there is a teeny tiny bit of play but nothing that concerns me at all

[@cyvidal10]

thank you@@thomasjmcclure

[@cyvidal10]

i was thinking of switching system from nato to falcam but i guess i'll stick to nato system for the meantime

[@thomasjmcclure]

@@cyvidal10 there is so much more variety with nato, tons of different handles, monitor mounts etc. that’s the main downside to falcam because they only have a couple options

[@todddammit4628]

@@thomasjmcclure You don't have to choose btw. Falcam makes Nato rails that QR onto F22. They also have Arri pin adapters. Best of both worlds.

[@poppafuze]

i came to see the cable clamp. womp womp.

[@berndsczepanski]

As far as i know you cannot fold out the monitor to the left with the neewer

[@thomasjmcclure]

Not too sure what you’re referring to, but I have full range of motion with mine
