DJI needs to resurrect the M series. I really like your setup. This setup really helps tall people reach a "normal" perspective.

[@JustinPorterMedia]

Without a doubt they do. I’d buy it quick if it was slightly larger to support pocket cameras. That setup was honestly really good.

Still running with the Ronin 1 Original. That thing's perfect for automotive filmmakers like myself, but now i have an issue: The batteries. They aren't as available anymore. And that's why i looked up your setup man! But one thing i really want to have is a ring setup as i need to shoot low angle stuff and can't do that with a Easyrig setup like yours and i don't want to carry around that freakin stand all the time 😂😢

I wanted to send a quick thank you over to you. While researching better gimbal setups for some upcoming shoots I came across your video. Like you I am on the taller side and didn't like most of the solutions I was coming across. So, I copied your gimbal rig (with the exception of a few accessories and the camera) and like you, paired with my previously owned EasyRig Stabil, applying it to a multi-day corporate/industrial shoot in Miami this week. The setup worked EXTREMELY well! Thank you so very much for your video and best wishes in all things.

[@noahgold7182]

brilliant setup for what you do. Used to shoot on the gh4 and had the olympuse pro 7-14. Incredibly sharp lens and the manual focus clutch was amazing. Now a sony a74 shooter and once i have a cage and 24-70sigma (fly by wire focus sadly) the weight gets to you, thankfully with crop mode i can punch in and basically get everything I need in one setup but it certainly weighs more thats for sure plus with a gimbal in hand. Need to look at a dummy ring and an inexpensive easy rig solution for longer shoots.

[@DustinFarrell]

I was literally moments away from purchasing the Advanced Ring and then I watched this. Another dude mentioned making sure to tighten all of the points securely in his review. What do you think was causing your "jitter"?

[@DustinFarrell]

Just found this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKLOlnuQbZyMqZI He says to add more stiffness to the roll axis.

[@JustinPorterMedia]

@@DustinFarrell oh that’s very helpful. I also tightened it all but honestly I think a big issue was using the RS2 with counter weights. It didn’t support the pockets like the RS3. I may try it now and see if I feel the same way

[@Heathenproductions2020]

I absolutely love this! I’ve been doing a ton of research into a full gimbal build but question. I run an R6 myself with some different lenses but.. I need to also run a transmitter, wireless follow focus, and v mount on this as well. What is the possibility of being able to get all of that onto this set up successfully? I have 8-12 hour shoot times as of late with the new video jobs I’ve been getting with narrative work.

[@ODHunte]

Dope set up and video bro.. I'm still looking for a solution for motion so maybe I need to try this...

[@JustinPorterMedia]

Thank you so much. This is the first video in the new set and I’m obsessed with it. Definitely motivation to make content regularly now haha. Also, this setup is worth a try. It’s a slight learning curve if you’ve never used an easyrig but you’ll learn fast.

[@caroled]

Great video. you shoot in log at weddings?

[@poti732]

Im really curious about one thing. I was convinced that your setup is the best for your work but… with the ronin 4D 8K you could use a wide angle lens , have the same stability with the built in gimbal and crop in in post because you have 8K to work with. Why dont you use that? W the flex cable if you dont need the chicken neck you can attach it to the back of the easy rig or anything.

[@JustinPorterMedia]

I like DJI but the ronin 4D isn’t an A Cam solution. It’s a very specific tool for certain shots in my opinion. I’d never use it mostly because of the lack of lens support. What if I want a 70-200. Or a 24-70. It just isn’t ideal

[@poti732]

​@@JustinPorterMedia if you remove the chicken neck or disable it you can use 24-70 on it but iv got your point . Isnt 8k enough to crop in instad of the 70-200?

[@liamsilly]

With your pull focus setup, what’s the purpose of the strap you have wrapped from the rod to lens? I’m curious if it eliminates any slight wiggle you get on the lens when pulling focus? If so that’s really smart!

[@cisnero1593]

[@thebenlew]

Awesome video Justin! Def thinking about selling the grip now! Side question, what headset are y'all running on wedding days?

[@aandjo]

Looks good man. Interesting how you seem to have it permanently in underslung mode. Has DJI updated the firmware so it's "fixed" now? My RS3 was driving me crazy cause starting it in underslung mode gave me tons of issues, like the camera would face the opposite direction (pointing towards the motor). I did not find any other solution at that time (if one wanted to be able to switch between underslung and normal I mean without remounting the camera). Maybe I was missing something?

[@rexwinchester]

Really helpful video! Thx so much. 5:58 What kind of clamp didi you use to hook up the Easyrig and the eye hook?

[@41vids]

Is this serene arm better then the stabil light arm?

[@FlyingJackalope]

I’m surprised the minimax could support the weight. I may have to look into this.

[@bryllupsvideografIsak]

I use a R6 mark ii as a dedicated gimbal cam, and have the 6k pro 100 % handheld as I cba having it rig it off a gimbal, unhook all the wires etc. I was thinking to replace my 6k pro with a DJI ronin 4d for that simple reason of being able to go handheld within a few seconds, but can't justify the price! With a setup like yours I would expect that it should be possible to reverse the roles of my cameras, and having the 6k pro on a gimbal all day. Is there a reason why you specifically use the 4k? (Other than the fact of the lens choises as you've mentioned) And would you advise against using the 6k pro on a gimbal for your style of wedding filmmaking?

[@sizmicmedia334]

2 handed underslung was always the best gimbal setup ergonomically. I don’t know why everything went 1 handle upright position.

[@johnstrasheim5583]

What mode did you shoot this in to get it to stay upside down?

[@41vids]

How long is your monitor cable? 2 or 3 feet??

[@davidson.mp4]

So the key of this setup is the EasyRig here! I bought the Tilta Ring few days ago but I already want to return it since I'm not comfortable with it, looks like your rig fits more for my needs. SInce I saw the video of Brandon Washington with the Tilta Dual Handle, I was not reassured to buy it (because of the lose screw), but it looks like the EasyRig alleviates the whole weight. Any issues noticed with this kit since you started using it this way? Great video btw!

[@JustinPorterMedia]

Hey thanks so much for watching. I also have the ring grip and am going to be testing a different setup tomorrow. both options are 100 times better with the easyrig. I personally feel like the gimbal performs better in underslung though. There a spot in the video where I talk about the lose scree deal and add a reinforcement. I also used a set of pliers to really tighten the screw so there has never been any slip.

Wow Justin, such a great set up for a gimbal cam! The last wedding film I worked on I used an S5 for my A-cam with a hanheld rig and a Gh5 on a gimbal for my B-cam/ b-roll cam. Only question is, do you still currently use this setup? If so, are you the one who operates the gimbal cam? The hard part for me is knowing when to use the gimbal cam and when to go handheld. If I could I would have a gimbal operator, but a lot of those shots are very specific to a certain style. Just wondering if you have any thoughts and how you go about it.

Have you tried to put a matte box on the 12-100 lens? I’m using a 24-120 z lens for Nikon and with a matte box on it the RS3 just vibrates pretty strong and fails the auto check. Everything is balanced perfect but it wont stop vibrating after I calibrate it. Even turning the stiffness all the way down just to see and still can feel vibration. Is there a solution to it? Taking the matte box off and balancing has no issue. Pretty strange I cant use a matte box with it

Well partially. I kinda touched on it in this video too but basically there’s specific moments where I will strap into the gimbal and let my assistants run with the handheld setups.

[@Mriwritelife]

Which size screw is that on the top of your gimbal? I need one for my camera cage.

[@41vids]

Hi awesome video, I just received my easyrig mini max with stabil light arm, I understand that the top arm needs to be in the “middle” balance holding the gimble+camera, but what about the back knob that controls the rope tension, what is the proper amount of tension of the rope? Are you supposed to let the rope be loose enough so the camera drops slightly? Or super tight? please help and thank you

[@JustinPorterMedia]

Hey! So you don’t want the tension super tight or super loose. It should be in between where you still have to hold the camera at the specific height however, when you step, it shouldn’t pull the camera up. Takes some practice but you need it dialed in just enough where it supports without adding too much resistance

[@Avensium]

Would you prefer this sort of setup or the tilta float vest? Can't seem to find a video comparing the too

[@JustinPorterMedia]

I also had the float. I’d prefer using the float for sure especially for long term gimbal work. The issue with the float and specifically in my case is the efficiency. With weddings, I can’t be confined to a piece of equipment because things happen and I’ll need to set it down. The float isn’t as “run and gun” and if you’re in a tight space, its useless. It’s great for big event stuff or corporate stuff. I would use it for weddings :(

[@Avensium]

@@JustinPorterMedia im with you! thanks for the advice, im guessing every time you take off the float, youd have to rebalance it every time however i heard it does better at getting out micro jitters xD

Hey man I've gotta question for ya. I have the pocket 6K pro & the Ursa G2, I'm looking into the Easyrig Minimax stabil light to help me carry the weight throughout the day. On the specs it says the stabil light can carry 2-7 KG. With a quick check, I find the pocket 6K + tilta ring grip, monitor, extra v mount, sigma 18-35mm & other accessories at nearly 7 kg. Then the Ursa at 8,82 Kg with a small hd monitor, nucleus M for focus & mic + mount & cinema lens (pictorzoom 20-55 & 50-125mm). I'm just doubting because I see in your video you have similar gear set-up....so the question is did you experience any issues with the Stabil Light? Especially on the heavier set-ups you've had? P.S. I'm also getting into wedding video's so your feedback would mean alot! Also, are you sure about the Tilta Ring grip? Did you try to mount it on top of the handle instead of the back to avoid the jitter? Thanks!

[@JustinPorterMedia]

Hey. Without a doubt, the stabil light will support your setup. I run the Ursa, portkeys bm5 monitor, rode ntg3, 70-200 canon or my old cine primes and still had to add weight to make it easier to handle. It also handles the gimbal with ease. As for the ring grip, I’ve tried it all. You really want the eyebolt so tilting with the gimbal works better. The only thing is I haven’t tried this camera setup with the ring. I have a feeling that it may help a lot having a stabilized lens.
