I love this. The only thing I would change is instead of the friction arms chosen here, consider the smallrig 2072 nato double ballheads arm. The primary advantage is that no matter what angle you use, it will never twist and loosen at the base attachment point. I’ve often been frustrated if I need to turn my monitor or other accessory counterclockwise and unintentionally also loosen the friction arm where it’s mounted to the cage. Low profile nato rails (2172) on everything gives you a bulletproof mounting solution that doesn’t fail in the field after several hours. Great video Gerald!
@geraldundone5 жыл бұрын
Thanks Ramon. You find that the rail stays attached to the recorder without spinning as well? It only has the one hole, so I figured the safety rail would turn in the recorder. Unless you put the monitor in a cage, obviously. But this is a good tip, thanks!

Sweet build! I love seeing how other set their rigs up so I can steal your ideas for my own! For those not ready to put money into V-mount, here's an alternative all-day powering system. All parts cost $200 on Amazon + monitor w/ power DC-out if you want a monitor as well. I used dual NPF -> v-mount plate by Neewer that has a single D-TAP out. I use a D-TAP to NPF dummy battery powering my SmallHD FOCUS monitor, which subsequently powers my GH5s. I pair this rig with a Nikon 24-70 zoom and MBSB XL and have a pretty nice stabilized mass for handheld work and can shoot an entire wedding with 2 NP-970 batteries. It's all mounted using various Smallrig parts, rails, plates, etc to the camera. If you don't want to have a monitor, or prefer a more minimal setup, there's a slick NPF plate by Ansso (~$38 on Amazon) that dslvideoshooter used on a recent build that provides two power outs from an NPF battery. So it could power your monitor and camera at the same time, and you would be switching out cheaper NPF batteries rather than v-mounts.

@@geraldundone - The 12 AM - 2 AM were not very exciting aside from satellites and other flying machines. The timelapse from 2-4:30 AM was pretty neat. Milky way came into center of frame, then everything was blown out after 4:30. My only problem is, I'm a rookie in Lightroom/Photoshop. Someone that knew what they were doing would make it look beautiful I'm sure. I made a video of it have yet to post it because I was going to have a contest and give a $50 Amazon card to the winner of who made it look the best. Then I found out there are so many rules and laws it may not be worth it. Maybe I'll edit out the contest part/post it and then leave a link to the photos and hope someone wants do their magic.

It may be more convenient to connect every thing to the plate but I've had some issues with the battery moving just slightly and my entire setup up shutting off.

Id much rather have my light shut off during a shot than my camera. Besides that this setup is amazing. Geralds List will have you shooting for daaaayyys. Thanks Gerald!

Love it, man! I basically built this exact same rig for the a7iii in January, only I opted for clipping a zoom h6 to the side to get phantom power for multiple mics. I also regretfully went for the wooden camera's dummy battery plate, and I've had nothing but problems with the dummy battery. First it was working fine, but then it turns out they had an underrated MOSFET that eventually popped on the plate. Then I sent it in and they replaced it with a newer dummy battery, but the camera now rejects the battery, and actually reset it to factory defaults. I've had a great experience with their dummy batts in the past for the a7ii. I'm temped to try to replace it again, but now (after watching this) I'm inclined to just remove the dummy chip from the plate (it would be easy), and use the batt's usb to keep the camera juiced for longer. Have you ever encounter a dummy battery reseting the camera or just outright rejecting it? I have a feeling that they may have just popped in one designed for the a9 because it uses the same battery type, and that is triggering the check/reset, but not sure... Figured I would get your thoughts before I void the warranty. 😁 Sorry for the long post. Here's a potato 🥔

With regard to heat flow with or without lcd screen touching camera.... the lcd screen temp I’m sure is hotter and generates more heat flow into the camera if the lcd is touching. So not touching is better because heat flow can come out of camera, and cables might add just a small amount of insulating effect. The heat flow will just go around the cables to get out of the camera.

Great video, thanks for the excellent content. Another advantage of using a dummy battery is to avoid overheating. It’s one reason I use a battery grip on the a7iii. Battery’s dissipate heat when they are used. The camera will over heat faster if using a battery in the body because the heat from the NP-FZ100 battery will dissipate into the body. I’ve ran side by side tests around this between using a battery in body and using the grip to power the camera and it made a difference in my “experiment.” Has anyone else witnessed the same?
@geraldundone5 жыл бұрын
Interesting notes. When I've done my overheating tests in the past I've never tried the test with a dummy battery, but I'll be sure to do that next time. Thanks for sharing.
@GOFAST06025 жыл бұрын
Gerald Undone - just FYI, for what it’s worth: I did the test in 4K 24fps 100Mbps (normal internal recording/codec). The only thing that was different, is on CAM A (w/ battery grip, I had Firmware 1 on it) and on CAM B with the battery in body, I had Firmware 2 on it - CAM B overheated much faster then CAM A - and, CAM A had some use before CAM B - so, I think it makes a somewhat significant difference in regards to legit battery, or “dummy.” I can’t imagine the newer firmware (v2) would contribute to an overheat verses the original firmware - but it is a variable - so my situation wasn’t perfect while testing. However, I have not run into a single overheat since putting a battery grip on both cameras in firmware version 3.0. I experienced this in a normal, air conditioned room - with ambient temps around 70 degrees. Another item to note for those that are interested: I recorded a wedding in Colorado sun with a7RIII with internal battery. Got through the ceremony, but then experienced an overheat shortly after during family photo session. Ended up not keeping the R, and grabbed a a7III - just did a all day shoot in California Sun and the Camera never overheated (I had the battery grip on it). I swear by this - and run battery grips all the time now, full time. Would love to hear about others experiences...?

If you have a a6500 or a camera with small capacity batteries , and you power the camera battery over usb from the Indie large battery, then you could still possibly drain the camera battery and the camera would shutoff? Depends on your camera duration and also if you are recording internal or not. But I don’t know what the actual duration would be before camera shut off. Why not just power camera through a dummy battery and not worry about it? ( for cameras with small capacity batteries. A6500 has 1500 mamp hrs. Not sure what the battery drain is compared to the supply from large battery)

Hi, is it possible to attach a tilta follow focus control to the side of the rig , I've seen similar setups here and there. Would like to know as I'm gradually setting up my rig with the sony a7iii. Thanks man a lot of your videos have been of great help.

I am at a loss. I have a rig around a v mount Shape D-Box power disruption plate. But I getting a TON of noise in my audio make it completely unusable. Here’s my set up: A Black Magic Video Assist 12g powered using the d tap. A Sony A7iii through a dummy battery to the 8v connector. And, a Sound devices Mix Pre 3 through the usb connection. I’m thinking this is a ground loop issue... but I have no idea. I’m super disappointed with the noise and not being able to use the d Box as advertised. Any advice?
