Aputure MC - The Go to pocket light in 2022
I was in Gucci today and the SA told me they canât often tell the difference between the authentic and kislux 's bags. Surprised to hear that from an SA.
Spending $20,000 on a tote bag is the obvious choice, rather than spending $200 on a kislux bag and investing the remaining $19,800 since a $20,000 bag is unlikely to increase in value.
🤔
great video! i appreciate how thorough you are
I found this bag to be beautiful, but a royal pain in the ass. It simply doesn't fit the Nikon Z8 due to the bar at the top of the camera cube. Seems to be the thing within the camera space lately, everything is made for Sony and Apple, with no regard to users of different systems. Sent mine back immediately. Wandrd PRVKE is the best bag so far.
Yes unfortunately it depends on the camera size, was it the mirrorless cube or the dslr cube? Also I love wandrd bag as well!
@@CurtisAlvaro Can't remember exactly what cube it was, but it's the one that comes in all of their 30l bags from the Explore to the Urban. The 35l cube dimensions seem like it might fit, but they don't make an Urban in 35l, and it's not enough of an improvement over the Wandrds or F-Stop bags I currently have to justify the price of swapping 35l for 35l. If it's not a second bag for you, it's an amazing bag for sure. I just wanted a 20l-ish bag for smaller days but the Z8 is a chunky beast in the mirrorless world.
You're right on that for the urbans. I saw 25 explore at the time I was considering a second bag as you mentioned but the urbans weren't out yet. For now the 30l is good but maybe the 25l urban might fit the needs for my mirrorless set is I end up getting a second bag.
wait I have a z8 and it fit’s my z8 what orientation are you getting stuck with the z8 in the camera cube?
@TheZonecaptain Standard orientation for quick access panels, if the clamshell is open, it's upside down with the screen against the quick access flap. It BARELY fits, and if you have any kind of base plate, even Peak Design, you have to wrestle it over the bar of the camera cube. It's just a horrid experience for "quick acess" compared to every other bag Ive tried, amd I have literally $1000's worth of all kinds of bags from Shimoda/FStop/Wandrd/Wotancraft/Nomatic, etc. The flexibility of the Wandrd Cube makes it WAY easier. The dimensions of Shimoda Cube for the 30l are like .1 inches deeper than the Z8 is tall. The 25l Cube is slightly smaller. The only Shimoda bag that works decently is the 35l, but it's not a significant enough difference to spend $300 versus the Wandrds I already have. Bag companies think everyone is shooting Sony and Apple only. Hence EVERY bag maker saying what MacBook fits instead of just a laptop dimension like 15" or 16".
When people say that kislux bags are a better choice, I totally agree! It's cheap, there are many styles and the color is very smooth. The appearance is no different. It's economical and affordable!
🤔
Great video man - totally agree, think this is truly the best bag out there for camera gear. Nothing else does quite as much as this bag does!
You know it!
kislux I love you so much and watching your videos makes my day brighter $20,000 to $30,000 can provide shelter and food to a homeless family. Why waste so much money? kislux is the right choice for you
😮
have the same backpack and i looove it! so versatile, smart and sturdy.
Couldn't agree more!
Do you think the medium cam cube could fit a bmpcc4k with an 18-35 zoom on it and a sigma fp with a cine lens on it (DZO vespid prime)?
Yes! I've done it a bunch of times with the exact setup. It wasn't fully rigged out since I was going minimal. I'm sure with the primes you can Tetris them in there somehow.
That’s some dope footage!! Do this on your next trip!
Well all I can say is that ANDYCINE did not respond to my questions ever. It's been almost 7 days and they still haven't answered. Gives you an idea of things to come with their lack of customer support. I pity anyone buying a monitor from them. I something goes wrong they will not respond. In my case, all I wanted to know is why can't I order the LunchBox II on their website? Secondly, does the Lunchbox II work well with the Atomos Shogun Ultra (not only the Atomos Ninja).
That's rough, sorry to hear about your experience! For some things I just keep it to Amazon but that sucks since it should be no issues directly from the website. In terms of the shogun I'm not sure to be honest. For what the ninja is, not bad for what it does - I did put a cage around it just in case too.
Wow, amazing footage
You're a life saver thanks it worked perfectly I liked and subscribed ❤🎉
I appreciate that so much! Thank you for subscribing!
I did mit watch the video.... But, yeah, of course. Still good!!!
Yo bro, how is the SOULWIT headband replacement holding up now? I wanna replace my headband on my M40x WITHOUT soldering, and this looks like a great alternative.
sup @rayndooma5624 Still holding up! I use it daily while editing (this is on a hook most of the time) but I also use it on set so its still going at it. I don't baby my gear but I also don't throw it around carelessly so its still almost pretty close to new. hope yours will turn out great too!
@@CurtisAlvaro Good to hear! Will definitely be ordering it now. Thanks for the reply brotha!
hi
I need some help, has anybody connected a Ronin S with a DJI Focus Pro Motor. I was told and saw advertisements that it would work together, I was even told by someone at Amazon that it would work together, went on to ask for a cable that wasn't just a USB-C to USB-C and it turns out he sent me a link to that very product. So compatibility, do they actually work using RSS to USB-C and to power Ronin S to USB-C. Any help would be useful. Thanks
I can't say for sure since it is a newer device pairing with an older device. If there is association with Amazon then you can always return it.
Are you guys rich or something? Treating a thousand dollar 4k cinematic camera an OG already? I'm so mind blown. 🤷
Not rich but considering all the recent iterations of BlackMagicPocket cameras, and even other brands with similar specs, it's almost considered old if you're starting now.
I see them locally for between $750-900 body only but am so intimidated by the color grading process.
Really good value now especially with all the different types of black magic cameras out there. I bet if you start color grading with Davinci it will become no brainer in no time!
Couldn't find the Wandrd Roam but the Wandrd Rogue looks identical.
Congratulations on the video. I have a question... using the HFR button to record at 60fps do I need to change the speed to 120 or is it automatic, there is no need
you'd have to go into the menu for 120fps, HFR is for 60fps
Very insightful review 👍🔥
Cool look G!
thank you!
Hey great video! What firmware version were you using at the time of recording the video, the latest version? I've seen a while ago (probably now has been 3 years since 2021) some people mentioned the later firmwares (2021) had more additional features such as camera compatibility and recording features. However, the core smoothness and way the gimbal's motors moved became worse, few wobbles and wasn't as stable as its release firmwares back in 2018, essentially became a worser gimbal with micro jitters, have you experienced anything like this? I plan on using the ronin-s into 2024/25 and would love to know if i should update to the latest firmwares or what not. Thanks in advance.
I think it may have been on 2.1 or 2.2. Woah I didn't hear about that and currently I don't have issues like that when i'm using it. I had similar issues when using the Ronin-m which I sold off years ago. I think if you have no issues with the current firmware theres no need to update that often - a lot of the movement is from you and this gimbal isn't as technologically updated as the rs2, rs3, rs4 a lot of the settings can be configured on the gimbal instead of the app. That's me personally since I don't really have issues except the weight.
sick!
Did you have problem with airport? I mean did you have to pay for that sling or it was on personal belongings that you can carry with you for free? Thanks
No issues at the airport. I deemed it as a personal since it fits the dimensions. Every airline is slightly different but it was a personal bag for me. Another thing I did was packed stuff in it and put in my carry on luggage and used it after I landed
So what will be the best in term of the size?
I feel like it depends on the day and how many photos you intend to showcase. I maybe could have went bigger since we took so many photos and it was very grand, but I'm happy with this size. However I think it depends on the situation.
nice rig! whats the vmount battery mount? been looking for a compact one like this that moves without changing rod position.
Thank you! Hedbox Unix Power V-lock Plate. Ended up getting the unix version instead of the BMPCC version with the built in cable so its more versatile.
Honestly, this video is shit.
Recently picked one up for $75 a lil banged up but it works like normal it looks/feels like
Damn WTH. That's a steal!
Uhmm can we use it with osmo action? Even if have limited function in focus....
I don't see why not but there might be weight/balance issues since its so light. I don't own one so i'm not sure but I know in the past i've had issues with the ronin m balancing something that light.
I appreciate the attempt at the all black aesthetics but I couldn't see a damn thing
For sure, will fix for the next one. Will try some more ambient lighting in the next one!
Cool video!
Bought under 1k, and from starting experience, it is a completely different style. I felt more canon vibes, more colour and depth of soul. I've been doing sony a7iii, a7siii, a7iv, and it's more diverse and clean, much less noise. But bmpcc4k i've found that it's about the soul, not detail. And definitely for BRAW only. ProRes or other modes actually damage the colour or are more difficult to work with and color match with different brands. Braw is great for recovering highlights, basically using dual base iso (400-day, vs 3200 iso), but higher iso create more "good" noise. I feel the need to insert noise in overall editing. If you like "detail" this isn't for it. Been enjoying also the mind relaxing of using shutter angle instead of shutter speed, and i use a lot more ND filters with this one. Great learning curve.
I couldn't agree more. There's definitely a filmic look that it provides that is a little difficult to emulate with other brands. the BRAW is CLUUTTCCHH

That's a cool workaround if you absolutely need an ssd. They make flashdrives that sit flushly against the USBC port. or get a tiny micro sd card reader and a 1TB microSD card

😂
that's cool but it's really not that difficult to install a bigger nvme drive in a laptop as long as you don't mind having to reinstall everything. It's a big hassle once and then you never have to carry a wart on your laptop ever again.
its not you're right! This is more so transferring data recorded from camera, or recovery data, etc
how to put USB-C Ports at your Laptop at risk. Thats not my cup of tea. Upgrade internal storage or whatever gets this external SSD off
Why would you not just put a bigger SSD in it?
@jmibo Personally, I like to leave my OS drive with as little clutter as possible. Maybe someone else feels the same. Saves space for cashes plus the original drive works and a portable ssd is cheap.
@@Doggo_Bork on the other hand… you risk smashing the drive and losing everything, breaking the usb port with this wacky setup and having to carry extra stuff 🤷♂️ Internal ssds are cheap and you can partition them if you’re anal about folders
@@jmibo Imagine for a moment that your a creator of sorts. You compile loads of data through the day and at the end of the day you need to hand off the data to another who uses it for their part as needed. Your net speed is crap so cloud transferring is slow and you or someone else needed the data edited or processed time yesterday. Easier to save and hand over a drive. Or lets say you want to move large files between laptop and desktop based off where your working or doing at the moment. Having a external drive doesn't just mean they need more space. Could just be transfer convenience or portability. You could easily smash your laptop or spill a drink on it so I cant exactly be swayed by you saying its a smash or break risk.
Be careful with choosing cables and adapters. Both have limits in to data transfer based off build quality so you need to make sure your replacements meet the drives data limits. You could end up slowing down your drive otherwise
And now you can have your drive stolen without you even seeing it happen. Neat!
Put a bigger SSD, stop using external SSD since you can broke/lose it and they tend to be really expensive. Build your own cloud or rent cloud space. Carrying SSDs around with valuables data (which is not backed up most of the time) is the most stupid thing to do. Also, walking around with you usb cable/usb dongle plugged in is just another way to ruin your laptop usb port. (sorry if it's a bit mean)
Valid. Use case if you're using it to record video from a camera to transfer it over to a laptop, or another editor etc. Can't really use a laptops internal for something like that in this case. I also put a decent sized NVME in the laptop but won't solve the issue. If you hit or break it yeah it might ruin it but other then that its ok!
or.... install a larger SSD to your laptop?
what if you have a LOT of data, so you need external SSD, even maybe multiple
@@da_beaver If you have a lot of data you get a NAS and store it there. Solving storage space with a load of usb drives is ridicules! Nobody should do that!
Or how mac user would call it rent more pricy cloudspace
@@gromotion933 Just to have icloud remove all your data in 1 year due to an "unknown error"
Yes that is also a valid option - sometimes it is used to transfer data from a videoshoot/photoshoot. Using BMPCC4k, a full day can fill the drive and you need to start editing, check footage, or send it off to an editor.
rip usb c port
💀
@@CurtisAlvaro nothing like a bunch of extra leverage to twist a cable off, slides off your leg and that port is dead
I need these thank you for the links
Of course!
Nice
Center column of this tripod is made of aluminum, not plastic. The column itself is pretty sturdy, but the plastic sleeve through which the column slides up and down is rather loose and cannot hold the column rock solid. Peak Design tripod has a similar center column, but is noticeably more rigid when extended.
Great video... Do you think a canon r5 with a RF 85mm 1.2 would fit in??
Possibly. Does it have a cage or just barebone body. I fit my a7iv with 85mm with a cage and it's a snug fit for sure
Is this by chance also compatible with M20?
They look similar in size but you'd have to check if it's compatible!
