    Hi Adam and family! Good to see you are well! I often think that Tilta are the 'pro' version of the things you make yourself. You seem to have a similar ethos to one another. I feel like you could do consulting work for them! It's so nice to be able to have a variable ND on a control like that. I got the Weeble S transmission package, and whilst I love being able to use my iPhone on the gimbal to give me more control and angle options, unfortunately I cannot use the follow focus motor function as my lenses are fly-by-wire micro four thirds.
    Maybe someday I will be able to afford a speedbooster and EF glass!

  • @apropo441
    @apropo441 2 года назад +2

    Thanks for this presentation ! The problem with variable NDs is that since it's a couple a polarizers, it changes the light polarisarion, so light reflection, when rotated in capture. Do you know it the whole variable ND could be turned to keep control of the polarization ?

  • @schmollywood
    @schmollywood 2 года назад +1

    Great video Adam, I wonder if it’s possible to also still use screw-in filters with this setup. It was possible with Tiltas Mini Matte Box to use Screw in Filters on the lens even when using the step-up rings .With this new Step-up ring design I’m not sure if that would still work. Could you please check?

  • @JoaquimGonsalves

  • @limagepicture9023
    @limagepicture9023 2 года назад +6

    Hi, thanks for your very interesting review.
    To avoid too much color shift with VNDs, I use a Kase Clip ND8 filter and when I use a VND, it limits a lot the color shift and also the light reflection because I don't use the VND to its maximum. The X pattern is also significantly reduced with my Sony FE 20mm and 24mm lenses.
    I haven't found a better solution at the moment, other than using ND filters alone.
    It's the same for videos, now I use a Kase Mist (Dream) Clip In filter in front of the Sony sensor (equivalent between 1/8 and 1/4 Polar pro). I get a really nice result.

    Hello Adam, i love your videos and i am always impressed how you Setup your gimbal with such payload like the BMPCC 6k with the heavy DZO Zoom Lenses with all the accessories. It there a possibility to get a setup video how you do it? I am always struggling how to set up the weight in a way that the arms don't get blocked.

    In your opinion, is it possible to place the Ronin RS2 Pro folowfocus motor on the Nucleus Nano Motor adapter supplied in the MB-T16-A kit to control the variable ND?
    Do the dimensions and notches of the wheel allow it?
    Thanks to you

    It's an excellent review of the Tilta Mirage Mattebox. In addition to that, may I ask if you are using the Siriu anamorphic lens on an MFT body? I'm quite amazed at how this individual managed to use the Siriu anamorphic lens on the 6K Pro camera.

    Can you make a video about your set up please? I also have the Bmpcc 6k pro with pictor zoom lenses. But I have the zhiyun crane 3s which seems to have some issues with vibration. How well does DJI RS 2 work with your set up?

  • @Bo_Hazem
    @Bo_Hazem 2 года назад

    Wonderful but would've love to see more direct VND color reproduction quality vs PolarPro Basecamp. Buying it anyway as I struggle between 5-7 stops during midday which means jumping from 2-5 VND to 6-9 VND back and forth. Also ND's are dirt cheap on this mattebox vs $200 each for PP basecamp. BUT we need in-depth comparison between all as I already own the PP basecamp and it might end up being exclusive to 200-600mm G lens, assuming this doesn't fit it.

    @wiseheadproductionsllc6653 Год назад

    Awesome. I was about to pull the trigger on a NiSi C5, but this looks to be more convenient with the wireless ND controller, and the option to mount the matte box on rails. I heard NiSi Vari ND true color is the best, but it's also only 5 stops. How _off_ is the Tilta ND color shift?

  • @cammackey
    @cammackey 2 года назад

    Great review man! So when shooting on wider lenses, how many max stops of ND can you get before the X ring shows up? Maybe compared to the polar pros 2-5 and 6-9..for wider lens is it better to go with the polar pro or the tilta?

    • @danielvilliers612
      @danielvilliers612 2 года назад +1

      I think one solution is to get a 4x4 square ND filter, a 3 stop would be enough so that you don't have to turn it too much.

  • @duckyTV
    @duckyTV 2 года назад

    Unrelated to this video but I think you should try doing an experimental rig where you attempt to built out a DJI RS2 into a poor man's Ronin 4D. I've been trying to build mine into a similar form factor for a while now and I'd be interested to see what you come up with

      @sketch8307 2 года назад

      If ur talking about the nucleus motor use a higher voltage rather than the 5v micro usb port it comes with. 12v from V-mount Battery shouldn't be good enough ( use a Dtap to Micro ubs with higher voltage than 5v)

    Have you noticed any barrel vignetting when using the stack adapter to mount two 95mm circular filters? I use the Sony S3/A1 and the GM 24-70 as my main run and gun and notice anything wider than 30mm I get heavy vignetting around the corner edges, of course the “solution” is to just zoom to 35mm and ignore it, but is that right? Should you see anything or did I mount it wrong lol

    Can you do a video on your blackmagic DZO set up on the float? I have the same set up on a tripod but I've only used my A7 on my float because I thought that set up would break my RS2!

    • @mattwaresak2298
      @mattwaresak2298 2 года назад

      From my experience, RS2 can handle pretty much anything as long as it's balanced correctly. I've put a ursa with a b4 lens on it and it was able to handle that without a problem.

I am trying to get the tilta and balance everything on my ronin rs - a have an ssd drive at the top, and need to add a microphone as well - was considering rode wireless go... I see you also have a cage here with a massive dzo. Do you think I could also get tilta cage for my 6 k pro and it would handle everything together? I am going to use id with a dummy battery and a cable to powerbank in my pocket.

  • @owenhunte6590
    @owenhunte6590 2 года назад

    Great video as usual… @bestboyadam I can’t believe that you’ve got the Pictor 20-55 on the RS2 with the BlackMagic pocket Cinema camera I’m assuming yours is the 6K key rather than the 6K Pro? I tried to balance the Pictor 50 to 125 with the same set up unsuccessfully at the weekend… But I will have to try it again… Or maybe it’s just because it was the 20-55 that it worked because the 20-55 is slightly lighter than the 50-125?
