This is so informative - I just picked up the 8K myself. Thanks for taking the time to make it. Separately, it's awesome seeing someone from Columbus doing so well on here. Keep up the great work!
Großartige Aufnahmen!
Thanks for this Ronin 8k overview ❤ After renting the 4D 8k for a shoot I decided this is my next camera purchase to accompany my Komodo X. Two great cameras that fill each other’s gaps. With the Flex add-on and the Pgytech backpack the 4D is even more versatile and enjoyable to shoot with!
By far one of the MOST underrated channels on RUclips.
You are too kind! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@initialfocus I’ve been shooting video and photos for over 17 years
I just hit 1k subs & I been on youtube for awhile
Great video and footage man!!
How is your handheld ability with the 4D? Do you always use sports mode or just lock the gimbal?
I'm wondering how good you can actually do handheld with this because I don't want to do gimbal work all the time.
Great video!!! Were you shooting exclusively with the 4D 8K or did you have an additional camera getting an additional angle? I'm trying to see if it's possible to cover an entire wedding as a solo shooting with just the 4D.
Hey thanks! So as I show at the end of the video I did have my 6K Pro on hand as a secondary mostly as a backup but also for more tight shots as my only ronin 4D lens is the 17-28mm (besides an anamorphic lens) so to answer your question if I had a 50+mm lens for my 4D I 100% would feel confident in that being my only camera. I think it’s built for events like weddings to be honest.
How did you covert the 8k footage to the smaller size ? What are the steps with that? Sorry a newbie to that.
that rolling shutter is scary
This is INSANE! I'm glad it worked.
Was a bit of a stressful day haha
So Prograde makes these cf express B cards with write speeds of 2400mbps (way higher than the DJI SSD) curious if you know if it would work with all the formats and codecs + frame rates on the 4D?
Also I would advice to use thunderbolt external ssd to fully use the bandwidth of your macbook, cause samsung T9 is usb 3.2 and I may suggest to use Hedge Offshoot to backup your footages.
Voted for ya brotha!
My guy! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I still shoot weddings in 8 bitt LOL !.... and the whole weding and evening 60 gigs......do you know why the background lights flikker ?
Color grading tutorial of that wedding
Just so you know you can power the camera with dtap or other power standards and use much higher capacity batteries.
In terms of only using 1 mag. You're wild for that lol
Is ok for me also 8k raw for every thing l would record,just about what yoy said we need some ssd memory and finish the Quality is the quality .
Great video! Were you shooting on 422 HQ or Prores RAW?
ProRes RAW! Sadly it’s the only way to get 8K 75fps.
@@initialfocus yeah, i hope theyll bring an update to use those anything higher 8k/30 in prores hq. When we tested it, it didnt have a raw license so we didnt really try it
@@VirtueMedia Yes we need more than 8k 30 fps Pro Res 422 HQ on the inspire 3 drone as well especially because of the awful rolling shutter jello effect
If you were delivering in 4K, was filming in 8K more of a curiosity thing? I feel like the stress of not having the space would just make me drop to 4K to get more SSD space if I knew I wasn't delivering in 8K 😅
100% it was for me testing / I personally always want the best quality I can. I’ve shot for big broadcast companies who ask for 1080p and I still will always shoot 6-8K RAW for my own personal archive if it’s a cool project 😂
Your gambled time that you had left of 30% of battery time was great enough because of the cinematography of each shot you’ve taken so quickly like it was a million dollar movie 🎥
Hey, what's your PC build to edit 8K? or do you edit with proxies?
Early 2023 M2 Max 16” MacBook Pro. Edit just fine in resolve usually just change to quarter resolution playback. I hate proxy workflows lol
Great video Michael oh wow my anxiety would be so far high knowing that I am running out of storage space wow!... Im considering the ronin 4D however, would you know if they fixed the back focus issue especially zooming in and out?? and do you have a review of the ronin 4d? id love to know if I could use my sony E mount lenses. 🙏🙂
I’d definitely stick to the 6K if I was shooting weddings all the time haha and if you mean the par focal issue then yes! I think 3 videos back my main 8K (vs red Komodo I think in the title) video. Watch last 3-4min and I talk about that fix 👍🏼
ohhh im going to check that out lol and maybe I can film weddings with the 4d in 4k instead of 8k idk lol to save space. Oh im going to check that video out now
@@initialfocus
I watch your video and I notice 8k there was an 8k feature last min at the end of the video smh
Yes
Did you check your shots to ensure none were transferred corrupted? This is why you should never format the main card until after you have checked this.
Yup, I quickly cycle through each clip to make sure there’s no issue with the files before formatting and backing up.
But that never happens with the new ssd's like the T9 4tb, mabey that was an issue with past hardware
Amazing feedback on this! love it! ........ hate to see all the stupid EXIT signs that ruined the shot...lol
Haha yeah I hate ugly signage 😅 ruins so many shots
Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett just chilling by the Christmas tree NBD 🙄😆
We figured that out halfway through cocktail hour and all the crazy security made sense to us 😂😂
I think it's ok to shoot 8k with the Ronin 4D, but I would have more ssd and a Data Manager/Wrangler. =)
Basically all the footage I see coming out of this video camera has that dull red brownish cinematic look. Is it possible to make the colors look more like canon or vibrant sony colors?
SC Justice?
Yup 😂😂
Nice. Friends in high places. I appreciate her recent ruling. D;@@initialfocus
I liked this video, but you can't expect me to subscribe after watching just ONE video now can you?
Something we as creators should think about.
Perhaps include whether you make more videos like these,
A REASON for a subscription...adding my direct response selling to RUclips XD
But, yes, I WANT a DJI 8K camera, x2 at least. And the 22K or so Drone x2 as well!
6k pro looks so much better than the ronin! Im shooting a wedding in Jan. komodo X, OG and the 6k pro!
That’s a killer combo! As much as I love the 4D Blackmagic really nailed the BRAW codec and Gen5 color. And the Komodo X is just 🤤🤤🤤
I agree. But I think that we value the color science but the client doesn’t car. As long as it’s better then a cell phone. I’m sure they would love it. That’s why I wouldn’t get the Panasonic S5 II. Great camera but Sonys color science is way better to me. Dare I saw. Better then BM. I’m 50/50 on that one.
@@jerrynieves7689 Sony color science , better than BM? Cmon man lets not get carried away!
Bahaha I’d argue it depends who colors it. All cameras now days are mostly 10-12bit and some version of LOG. A pro colorist can match or make any camera profile look killer.
I think color science is relevant to most of us who want something that allows us to style to our liking with ease.
@@bmefilms6879 I think it really depends on the scenario. I Think certain skin complexion’s really complement the more magenta tones of the Sony. But in the more average scenarios yes the black magic does usually look better. But it does have the advantage of being able to shoot 12 bit. So I wouldn’t say it’s an exact apples to apples comparison. I do however prefer Sony over canon for sure. If you’re looking at one 12 bit image and another 12 bit image graded by the same person
Yo viendo que el titulo esta en español y el video en ingres: 😑
3TB?????!!!! FACK THAT 😅😅 OMG LOL 8k is not it lol or even filming a wedding on this camera. It's like yea it can do it. But there are wayyyyyy better tools for the job.
Yeah, especially considering the downsampled 4k still uses the 8k sensor with all the benefits and more DR with SNR = 2. Unless youre doing VFX work or heavy grading it's not worth!
Do you really need to shoot 8k for wedding? Even 4k😂, most people even don't know how to playback😅
A lot of the benefits of 8k are not to deliver the video in 8k, but for extra sharpness / effect / colour grading work. It also reduces noise! If you look at DR charts the DR increases a lot at SNR = 2 in the downsampled 4k! Also the 8k has more colour bit depth so smoother colours, as well as a bunch of other stuff
lol 😅
That wedding footage is 🤮
Do you really think you’ll get more clicks and views by putting a girl on your thumbnail instead of you?
That’s quite misleading and useless IMO. I’d rather prefer to see your face to get that’s it’s your video/channel, than always see your girlfriend (I suppose) when YOU post a video.
Revisiting this video could you have possibly filmed in 4k 60 or 6k to save storage space or does the 8k sensor only film in 8k? and at 5:08 when you switched lenses did you have the ronin on a tripod or handheld or a combination of both lol?
