This gear saves me time! Kondor Blue Cine Gear + Fomito + Small HD

[@KONDORBLUE]

Wow sooo cool! Thanks for sharing your experiences! Kudos taking the hacksaw to it and solving problems! We will have a fix for this soon actually :)

[@FellowFilmmaker]

That's great to hear! Haha, I figured ya'll might have a regular 3/8ths eventually but my rig couldnt wait. Let me know when you do so I can link the right part here on this video! :D

[@threefoldtv]

That Cine EF cap looks sooo good! Great info!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

It does! It sure is a fun one to have, a great gift for sure!

[@tombuck]

I feel like I’ve been sleeping on Kondor Blue (as the kids say). These are awesome tools. 😎

[@FellowFilmmaker]

They are! Super glad to have come across them, found out about them from Armando's youtube channel

[@AZisk]

Just bought the magic arm after watching your video. Been frustrated with this for a long time

[@FellowFilmmaker]

I hope it helps you out a bunch, I know it's been such a lifesaver for me!

[@TheKevinShen]

these quick release plates might be exactly what I’ve been looking for! thanks Heather :D

[@FellowFilmmaker]

You're so welcome! :D They help a ton!

[@Ranger7Studios]

I soooo many of those quick releases. Its become such an invaluable tool in my work flow. They really are a great company. And they warranty those plates for life. So if they ever fail, they will send you a new one for free.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Right?! Best part of it all.

[@GeraldBertramPhotography]

Kondor Blue certainly has been impressing me with their gear recently!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Same! Super high quality

[@AloneAntonin]

Hey Heather, I’m commenting here but I’ve just watched a bunch of your videos and it all started with the Think Tank Production Manager 50 (that I now own partially thanks to you). I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy your content and that I’m sure that the KZbin algorithm will make you blow up in the upcoming weeks/months. Keep up the great work,👌 Thank you for your passion from a fellow filmmaker in France 🇫🇷 ✌️

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Thanks for sharing!! Happy to hear my videos have been of help to you. I hope the algorithm gods do their thing too :D

[@NatesFilmTutorials]

Looking like a fresh redesign, nice!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Hope it helps! :D

[@AlvinSWongMusic]

Looks like solid accessories. Love the blue steel theme too.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

They are very solid, I am beyond impressed with them. And I too love the theme, since it falls in line with mine a bit :D

[@MegaMiniMedia]

Love hearing specific-use case reviews, as that's really how we all use this stuff anyway! Everyone is different in how they might need to rig up a monitor, so you talking about the modular magic arms is a great point... I have arms in that same style, and never thought of swapping out 3/8ths and 1/4-20 screws on the end before this!! Thanks for posting :)

[@FellowFilmmaker]

So glad I could help and inspire some new thoughts! :D I too love seeing how others do unique or different setups.

[@Ranger7Studios]

They sent me a half cage for my BMPCC 4K. They are terrific! Very light weight.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

So awesome to hear! :D

[@PraveensFitnessFamily]

Nice productive products, great content

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Thanks for watching :) And glad you like the content

[@WazariWazirOdyssey]

Neat and beautiful setup...

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Glad you think so!

[@MossCoveredBonez]

Would love to see how long the magic arm lasts before it wears down. Also this is what I want, gear that matters. Not just the flashy stuff. Workflow is everything

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Agreed. I've had it for at least 3 months now and no break down of it yet. I think it will hold up for a long time by the looks of it. And I'm happy to hear you enjoy this content, I do too! :D

[@NeilEvery]

Love those coiled cables. Personally, I prefer to have my monitor attached to camera via the baseplate or a half-cage. Attached to the head means disconnect cables etc every time I switch to handheld, slider etc. I've actually seen some people nearly destroy their setup because they forgot that their monitor was attached to camera and head - not necessarily two things you want tethered.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Good point. :) Thanks for the info, might take it into consideration. :D

[@CedricHauteville]

On the topic of saving time, I'd recommend investing in a V-mount/Gold Mount battery plate. It can seem expensive, but the peace of mind that you get from having one battery to think about and change is worth it. I've got the Fotga DP500 plate, which works fine, but in retrospect I'd probably suggest the Lanparte VBP01 (mainly because it has a D-Tap port on the plate)

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Great idea! I'll have to look into that. Lately I've been considering just plugging the camera right into a wall plug since it's nearby, but a v mount isnt a bad idea either.

[@CedricHauteville]

@@FellowFilmmaker Battery plates usually have an AC adapter input so that you can also plug them to the wall :)

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Sweet! Any good batteries you'd recommend or like?

[@CedricHauteville]

@@FellowFilmmaker TBH I'm not an expert in batteries. I have a pair of IDX Endura 91Wh batteries that are serving me well. It's mostly about which bells and whistles you're interested in (capacity/size ratio, number and type of ports directly on the battery, remaining runtime display, etc). Keep in mind batteries over 100Wh are not allowed on planes (remember those)?

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Haha, yesssss planes! :D Maybe we'll go back to traveling by train...

[@grooveecard]

Great info! Thx!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

You bet!

[@flyboytech8246]

What piece is you using to attach to the tripod for the recorder

[@OkeechobeeFlorida]

cool!!!!!!!!!!!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

:)

[@zufar_ar]

👍

[@zufar_ar]

Sorry for my Comment. My english is Bad. :V

[@FellowFilmmaker]

:D

[@FellowFilmmaker]

That is ok, don't worry :)

[@ConciousCinema]

I won't buy kondor blue ever again. very bad customer service and very bad product too. I got a cage that didn't work like it should and the answer was "buy the new cage"

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Im sorry to hear you had a bad experience
