Scott, you're the best that could happen to my photography. An actual pro who doesn't depend on sponsored content or their KZbin success to come and debunk all the myths and tell it straight as it is. Appreciate you a lot!

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

That’s so kind of you

[@marchdevin]

100%

[@willbaren]

This is why working as an apprentice to a top photographer is so valuable and why these sort of videos are also so valuable. Thank you so much. Cheers.

[@photom3]

It’s a treasure. I’ll never be in your shoes but you illustrate what it takes to do work that is deceptively simple but really isn’t.

[@workingwiththelight3119]

Yellow tape tip is great idea!

[@crowla9139]

[@andrewgulland8012]

Canon 1ds mk11...a fabulous camera, I owned 4 of them over the years. The battery was the size of a car but the image quality was excellent. Sold mine and went Nikon D3x, which I still use.

[@michaelvanpeski5950]

You're straight to the point explanations on how you do your job is awesome. I'm definitely not a professional photographer, but if I strived to be one it would have to be a combination of you and Ansel Adams.

Really digging your content. The tip about air tags for kit bags is Brilliant. One of those things that should be obvious, but never actually occurred to me.

[@markweston2623]

Awesome tips, Thanks, one question, how do you check in so many batterys in those Bags?

[@TurboMiniTV]

I'm with you on the heavy painkillers in every bag... ! I Often don't drink/eat enough due to rushing about or generally forgetting, leading to inevitable dehydration headaches. I'd rather be a bit "Wooo!" but functional than a painful mess.

[@JHurrenPhotography]

Genius! Thank you for sharing! This will prevent me from wasting lots of money. I'm partway through a commercial photography degree, so your timing is perfect. Nicely done video

[@JHurrenPhotography]

I have one question though: are those Mamiya Z or C lenses? My college has the Cambo system and I just can't wait to get access to it

[@SonOfWalhall]

02:30 "generic" triggerset! I need that! I have no idea what to search for though 😄

[@KyleClements]

These videos are so incredibly useful. Especially all the little bits of real-life stuff like the lint roller. Patting down a client with packing tape rolled sticky-side-out doesn't exactly scream "professional".

[@olafzijnbuis]

One thing I noticed... I would use a plastic sandwich bag to pack each bellow. Are you not afraid of dust? Any dust inside the bellow may end up on the sensor.

[@sdwjapan5466]

I would love to have you explain all of the tools you mentioned and why they are essential-especially on the road

[@corbinpearce7686]

My guess is that’s all in the patreon video as well

I use natural light and a Fujifilm camera + a 35mm and 50mm lens. Fits in a tiny bag, weigh 1300g including bag and 3 extra batteries. I've shot book covers, magazine covers, album covers, commercials etc only using this gear. I used to have 3 bodies and 6 lenses, flashes, reflectors etc but realised the photographs didn't get any better so I narrowed it down. / Johan

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

I am very jealous haha. When I was a portrait photographer my bag was more like that, but since doing still life studio work it just gets worst and worst

[@photographyRI]

Hah. I bought a 1ds2 a handful of years back when I saw it for $450 because I always wanted it. Had a bum sensor though. Never did replace it.

[@nickolascooper1516]

I would love to hear your thoughts on corporate photography or corporate verses commercial photography. If you restarted would you mix corporate in if you actually enjoyed photographing people?

[@LeeHarris]

How funny, the coincidences here. I have an OMD EM2 which I bought maybe 8 years ago? When I got into video I went with the BMpcc4k because I used Resolve but also because I can use the same lenses as my stills camera. I also have a Billingham from 2012 which I use all the time and also that very same ThinkTank which I bought about the same time as the OMD camera (whilst in Texas- much cheaper). I standardised all my flashes to Godox years ago and yes they are cheap but have had minimal issues. The one amusing aside is that I have a friend a who also used to used that Canon body and always took the piss out of my 4/3 system but he had to borrow my camera on several occasions because his Canon pbacked up and needed several repairs whilst my old OMD EM1 mk2 has never failed me in all these years.

[@Bobcat-1967]

I was waiting for a triple extension ladder to come out of that last box.

[@lefthandright01]

Quick question: The smaller sensor will produce a greater depth of field, but if you are using a tilt shift style lens configuration, why does that matter? If you are using a traditional lens a MF lens will have a larger aperture range...if tilting...then you're going to tilt shift to get focus anyway.

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

Great question. Ill answer here as probably too niche for a video. Lens first, the medium format lens is not a medium format lens once on a 35mm body, but you are right in that you can stop down further to say f16 with little loss of IQ, but at F16 close up to a large item the DOF is really small still, so you fix it with the technical camera. BUT even then you can't always get enough movement on a camera this size (the cambo not the canon part) to get everytyhing in focus. You also lose a LOT of light doing the movements. For f16 I am often at 3200 watts with just a reflector. Also getting the plane of focus just right is harder to achieve (practically) as the sensor gets larger. Hope that helps

[@lefthandright01]

@@TinHouseStudioUK Thanks for taking the time. I appreciate it is a niche question. Food typically has the camera a lot closer to the subject than other forms of photography, which will complicate depth of field equations.

[@anikdutta999]

Please do a top down angle as well on these type of videos

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

I might be getting a second video camera later this year so will deffo keep that in mind if I do.

[@EdClews]

Excellent ladder work 👍

[@manueldinisphotography]

First of all thank you for the information, thought I am not even close to shoot commercial is good to know what one might be facing in this line of business. That being said, and again I don't have the experience, your kit reminds me early days of mountain biking when I was either on a long ride or sometimes a race, I use to carry two spares tubes along with pumps, repair patches, extra food and water (like 3 days worth of them even though we were ridding for 6 hours), as time went by I learned that 75% or more of it was not really needed, have you found out that end using the extra equipment more often than not?

[@joyibrand]

Nice kit but are you sure you have enough tether cables? Where's the left handed screw-drivers and backdrop paper decreasers?

[@danwhiteside5452]

Hi Scott. What kind of tripod head would you recommend for sturdiness/stability?

[@JGZphotography]

Well Scott, we do have something in common-the use of tape. I use Blue tape. This easily identifies me on the sports field against other photographers. lol

[@Visky80]

Great video, i like video editing too!

[@etiennelainephoto]

Is tethering two cameras as simple as plugging in two cameras or is there more to it?

[@vu6721]

Hi Scott, which flash triggers are those? I'm thinking of using lights of different brands (elinchrom & godox). Does it work with high speed sync? Thanks

[@capturedbyquinn]

You mentioned a "scoping camera / scoping lens". I'm not knowledgeable in product photography - does that mean for viewing video scopes to monitor colour / exposure?

[@dermotfaloon_streetmonkey]

Great video, super helpfull- I would like to see 5Ds images compared to a 6D with is lower res and see if its worth swapping my 6D to 5Ds and see how the ISO loss effects things in reality - both great to still use today.

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

you can't see any difference unless you print really big.

[@CoveringFish]

I’m not sure which gfx you were using but I’ve heard that they require a sort of specific cable for them. Not an excuse just couod explain the dropouts there’s more weird stuff going on with Fuji

[@1nkd]

Hi Scott. Is this the Sigma 24-105mm? I did see Canon on the lens hood, but could be a replacement. Looking to sell my backup / quick shooting (non prime TS) dust infested / out of alignment barrel Canon 24-70 f4 for architecture / interiors for either the Sigma 2.8 or the f4. Love the vids! Helped with my carrer & saving money - A few years back I started watching your videos & thankfully then purchased a 2nd robust 5dsr instead of a new Fuji GFX system. More holidays for me! Cheers

[@ateliercunha2876]

Hi Scott, how big is the largest image you've ever printed in a campaign from a 50MP Canon 5DS file? Thank you very much.

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

bigger than an office door at full res, the obvs billboards and 6 sheets are far lower res due to viewing distance etc.

Am i the only one that wonders about the green tape on the bag @08:05? But the rest is yellow? Small thing, i know. But details xD Love your vids!

[@slglasius]

I am just elbows in Fuji, just found out the tethering issue. Cried my eyes out what a drama. Tethering is not a regular thing yet but I am just about to throw everything out. What a complete nightmare. Freezes, connections lost, lag etc. No one talks about the tether issues for Fuji. But it is to the point of almost completely useless!

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

Apparently the new Area 51 cables have a version specific to the Fuji camera now so might be worth trying

[@slglasius]

​@@TinHouseStudioUK Will look into it. After digging to the bottom of the internet. Apperantly Fuji icw godox triggers also cause freezing issues. Also the usb-c connector is shit. But that could be fixed with maybe the area 51 cable.

[@gaborlenart]

Where do you get the polarizing gels? Is there any way to find it a bit cheaper than the 599£ rosco roll? What's the size you are using? Also, what is that tube you are using to store the gels?

I can’t remember, but it was painfully expensive

[@gaborlenart]

[@mynameisanyname]

Hello, How do you carry everything? Do you have a car? A van? Do you use taxis? How many assistants help you to move thoses cases? I ask because I'm currently searching for solutions regarding that matter. This may seem trivial but when you have to carry heavy luggages in a +40°C day and still want to look clean in front of your client, there are no more stupid questions. Thank you.

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

Great questions. I get all of that into a tiny Kia PIcanto as well as my personal luggage. On this job I drove into the actual studio and just took them out my car by myself.

[@mynameisanyname]

How often do you polarise your light/lens? I got a set a while back but never actually use them.

Maybe twice a year haha. Its pretty rare

No yellow tape on your mirror! Is that why you lost the other mirror!

[@devtaint3955]

Why can't the agency & clients come to your studio for the shoot? I know most of the ad agencies are in London, but many of the biggest FMCG headquarters are outside of London (Theale, Weybridge, Crawley, Croydon, Basingstoke etc). So the clients paying for the shoot that have to travel to come to London for the shoot could just as easily come to your studio. It would be so much easier than having to drag all your gear to a rental studio AND having to rent gear from rental houses. Is it because the agency people don't want to travel outside of London?

[@TinHouseStudioUK]

Really good question. But sadly there is a good answer. Outside of London there are very very few stylists, digitechs, producers, retouchers, assistants, sparks, prop houses and rental houses. The logistics of bringing all of that to me is far harder than me going to them. And of course some of these folks you can find out of London, but all the best ones are in London.

All good, but one thing.. the thumbnail. I really don‘t understand: first, where‘s the connection with what you say in the video, second, in general: Canon (like all the other brands, for that matter) don‘t hate anyone who‘s using their kit, old or new. As far as Canon is concerned, believe me, there is truly no hate, As a matter of fact, it‘s a love song to how good Canon‘s camera performs and how reliable a Canon‘s kit is, if you are still making a living out of a few yerars old machine. Using the word „hate“ as a catch phrase is a bit.. well, not nice. But hey, it‘s your channel, you can do whatever you want.
