Thanks for video. I am a very happy MFT shooter. I can’t compare it to any other system, as I have never used other systems. Most of my gear is second hand, very good quality for a reasonable price. No complaints about the image quality.

Awesome review really appreciate the negatives which no one else is talking about. Quick question: can the 75mm head/bowl be screwed out and attached to some of ulanzis photo tripods like the zero f38 tripods? I’m trying to find the perfect balance between the portability of a photo tripod but that has the video features as well so I’d want to see if I can just attach this beefy video head to a photo tripod like ulanzis other tripods or even their new tree root photo tripod. look forward to what you think! Also your review didn’t go into detaching the head out from the unit

Very good video, has helped alot.

Ok lil buddy, some advice. Fungus spreads via spores you cannot see carrying on the air. If you bring a lens with fungus into your home, you bring fungus into your homes. All your other lenses and camera sensors *WILL GET INFECTED!* Trust me Im an expert. Been in the game a long long time….

Use a matte box brother. Way better options for your image than the color cast that typically comes with internal nd or screw on filters.

I also love my GX80, my only gripe is when doing portraits/people shoots where I want to do bursts, the Buffer is full very quickly and the flash needs a lot of time to recharge after a while. I might just get an external flash for that purpose :)

Yes, small and light, that is the true heart of m43. Pany must give us a new small camera, a new GX, GF or GM model.

Well said. Thank you.

I bought the original Olympus OM-D E-M5 with some lenses back in 2013 after a little more than a year trying out the now dead Nikon 1 system. Over the years, I have bought more lenses, exchanged my cameras in newer models. My entire kit fits in a Nanuk 910 case that I could bring as a second personal item along with my carry on when I travel (with most airlines). I currently use the OM-1. I think most users of MFT would much rather spend money to update their camera and a lens every 3 year than try to sell everything at once on the used market and buy a new system. If you don't need the nose tip to be out of focus while the eyes are in focus in your portrait photos, you really don't need to drag on those large heavy full frame lenses.

apsc blows away m43 in quality and is almost as small. pick up a used a6500 and it's staggering how much better the pics are then any m43.

MFT is basically dead. Particular when you can get a decent FF body from Sony for a similar price. And the lenses are only a bit bigger and bit more expensive. But the IQ of FF vs MFT is a different league

Example, the 10-25mm f/1.7 costs around $1500. THe 12-35 f/2.8 is basically only SLIGHTLY cheaper than the LMount 24-70 f2.8 which absolutely destroys the 12-35mm. I say all of this being an MFT fan and i Use MFT and LMount. The economics of the S5ii and Sigma LMount glass makes it unbeatable. Sigma do not even make MFT lenses - they make APSC glass with MFT Mount.

The used market is amazing for MFT gear but i think it's just crazy to be investing in new bodies and glass in 2024.

The S5ii essentially just renders MFT to be redundant.

Myth: MFT Gives you MORE DOF = False. You can increase your FStop on a fullFrame to achieve the same DOF if you're into DEEP dof.

MFT user here BUT i think it's ludicrouse to be dropping thousands on new MFT bodies and Glass in 2024. Panasonic only JUST released a GH with PDAF! At the end of the day, MFT bodies and glass is too expensive. If you look for equivalent lenses in L-Mount, for something that gives equivalent bokeh (if you're into that), the MFT if it is even available, is MORE expensive.

the size difference is pretty big @03:11

So I got the, NEEWER LL55 78" Carbon Fiber One Step Video Tripod with Dynamic Fluid Head. I never used it yet is it about the same as this or should I return it and get the Ulanzi?

I like that they plant a tree with every filter sold

There are several Drop in filters for both EF and PL - also, depending on the lenses you get some of them have drop in filters built in. The Nisi Athena's are an incredible option.

Well, Sennh sounds great in studio condition without pop filter. Rode sounds terrible naked. However when the dead cat filter in on, that’s a way different story. Sennh sound bumpy and dull while rode gets crispy and flat. I feel like rode took a huge attention to the fact it would be used in the field with the filter. I’m pro engineer with over 20 years of experience. Look. My verdict here is is: If you do room recoding like interviews. Means no wind and no proximity issues, Sennheiser is a great deal. In case you go out, field or smth. NTG4 is more natural sounding device. However you MUST use a windshield otherwise it would sound like crap. Use flat on original and use high frequency boost with dead cat. To my ears mke600 is pleasant for voiceover and vlogging internally. Two mics are designed to the different conditions. Rode gives 10 years, so internal battery fault is not relative. Batt would last long. Hope that helps

Thanks for this video, showing details about his tripod. Good job!

would Nikon D4s fit?

I’ve been very curious about this because the lenses are like 50% cheaper

Cool shot bro 3:01

Turn off lens IS

Great video demo of this.. i am very impressed with Ulanzi gear, they are keeping all the other companies in check because they keep everything pretty budget friendly compared to their competitors but also keeping the quality up and usually more features!

*I used to have a Blue Compass which is used for Mics weighting up too 2.4lbs and I used this for my Panasonic G7 at the time for my over head as well as Talking head videos and it worked Great*

Would this fit D850?

If you are in Ontario you can try crossborder shipping to reduce those import fees a bit

Is it compatible with stuff from Smallrig?

wow wow, bro, slow down please... ))

I like my camera to have some "heft" to work against for reducing shake. So, I shoot with a grip. When I purchased my 5D3 over 12 years ago I purchased a favorably reviewed 3rd party grip for it. That lasted maybe 18 months. I'm a slow learner, so I read about the 3rd party grip that was at that time everyone's favorite. A couple of years went by and it too had failed. Still, I wanted another grip. Finally, coming to my senses, I bought the Canon grip. It felt better, but not impressively so. The battery holder was certainly nothing that would inspire confidence. Over the lifespan of the grip it never glitched, failed to fire, failed to generate focus or anything else. Last month, after using the camera for 12 years and the Canon grip for over 8, I replaced both with a new R5 and BG-R10. I did not, even for a moment consider a 3rd party grip. That said, my story is old news and the newer 3rd party grips have probably improved. They just aren't for me.

Thanks! good info and execution!

I am now too scarred to purchase ugly.....Let me tell you why. My first purchase from KEH was a bargain grade D3s and arrived in quite good order....just missing rubber cap to remote connector. Them I purchased Nikon 80-400 G in bargain grade with a noted damage to front ring. On arrival the ring had a missing section but not too bad. What wasn't mentioned was weather seal next to bayonet mount was lifting in one small section. The movements of lens seemed to be good and free without stiffness. Then for a third time I decided to try a bargain grade Nikon 24-70 G ED also with damage to front ring. This time the damage seemed to be easily 1/3 of ring broken off (most likely dropped damage) and on mounting on camera....auto focus works fine but manual focus seems to freeze until using auto focus and then it works for a bit. Will see if frees up and usually use auto focus anyway. Bit dust in glass which is to be expected. I think 24-70 more an ugly grade than Bargain grade. But can't be too fussy as not buying exc or as new grades. But now unsure if taking a chance on ugly is worth it as in Australia , with our weak dollar and shipping generally cost of item doubles by time it gets here.........But am happy with the body though....Its a beast

Mke 600 sounds better and the exchangeable battery is a big plus on set. Also: micro usb? Eew. Really? Rode didn't switch to USB C by now?

I don't need or want internal NDs. I want the creative flexibility to use my own ND options (matte box, screw-ons, drop-in blades). I'll be using L-mount NiSi Athena Primes with drop-in ND filters. Videographers want internal NDs, not cinematographers.

Talk, talk, talk.

Thanks for this. I have a question, what if I want right handle, what should I buy? It looks like it can't only connect to the left handle

Nice video. I'm a bit curious if you considered the newwer one, which has a more articulated set of arms

So does this mean I should just get the normal 24-105mm rather than this one the L version?

Great video, thanks! Which one do you think would be a better choice for birds photography? So it means distant voice. I know the regular NTG can be boosted +15dB so the pre-amp in my Canon R6 can be lowered, but did not find anyone, who would compare these in such a way. From my understanding the MKE600 would mostly use the internal R6 pre-amp and the NTG would use it's own higher quality pre-amp. Did you ever try the NTG?

Did you try to use the grip with a LP-NH, the older model batteries? What was the brand of that grip?

I love the Urth magnetic filters.

I just discovered you and loved the last couple videos I’ve seen. If you have the time you should keep making videos! Consistency is hard but would love see more in the future

Sennheiser has more noise than the NTG4. But sounds a bit better...

CAMVATE Quick Release Baseplate is 2 mm to low so the camera plate get stuk on top from rail

Thanks for geat video, i am building the same cage ! But what type model metal thingy cold shoe you using in the top shoe of your camera?

Your lighting is terrible. You wave the product around that you are trying to sell, so we can't see it. We don't need to see your face. We need to see more of the product.
