Palle, I smiled throughout. People complain that the H1 is too big and un-Fuji-like! Ha-ha-ha. But, really, thanks for throwing G.A.S. on my chronic, uncurable gear-acquisition disease! Love these short videos and learn a lot. I subscribed after watching the wonderful Nepal videos shot with the H1.
Thanks so much. I love your calm delivery and I am learning so much from your thorough and practical teaching. You're absolutely amazing at providing the kind of detail that it would take forever to stumble across on one's own.
Wow this is great! I'm planning on purchasing the Ronin-S gimbal for my XT3 but after seeing your rig, I'm not so sure. I'm not even sure if the Ronin-S can handle a cage with a battery grip and a whole bunch of accessories, but it should since it's made for heavier DSLRs.
Nice set up! I want to do something similar with an XT4 a just purchased! Any advice? I also want the SmallRig wooden handle grip with the record start/stop button. Can i modify the one SmallRig sells for Sony? Finally , in regards to the Focus Monitor , should i get the Oled ski or lcd ski? Thanks in advance!
Can you post a video on your handle hack? That's a great idea! I've been using a the intervalometer from Fuji and it's very corny to show up with this sweet caged up rig and a button taped to it :) Cheers!
A rig, because a gimbal still makes its own decisions and suddenly want's to look in another direction than I. It is an indirect feeling. With a rig, it is all my decisions with very direct interaction with the movement.
Great video. I wanted to know if there is a setting you set to for using it with an SmallHD monitor? I have xt-3 and smallHD focus and the monitor won't display anything. Micro HDMI to Micro HDMI
Thanks Thomas. I've told SmallRig how to build this, and I know they are toying with one for Sony. But they are struggling a bit to make it work. Making one for Fuji is very easy, but I guess their priorities aren't in favour of the Fuji right now
@@PalleSchultz Hello, Palle! You make great stuff, but in this video you use another cabel, to microjack (?), i cant find what is true name of this, can you halp me please?)
Hello Palle, great video once again. It would be interesting to see some of your work using that cine lens with the x-t3....the quality of image, etc. Any chance you'll be shooting some footage and uploading to RUclips?
New to your channel! Your style is so refreshing - definitely subbed. Quick question about the x-t3 if you don't mind. Has there been an update to get rid off that 4gb file size limitation? And could you tell me how big a 1 minute 4k, 400 mbps, all-intra file is? I do not yet own the camera but I am very excited to get it in a few weeks :)
Happy new year. I'we been watching your work almost since begining. I'we seen some stuff. I do have a QQ after this geeky upload. Can you mount your follow focus on this setup and do a handheald short? Maybe it's too much, but i would love to see the final product. Great work, really appreciated!
@@PalleSchultz thanks for the answer. I do the same (focus by hand:D), just tought that, in your geekness (in a good way) you found a better way to do it, because...man, i love the follow focus end result!
Hey... i was curious too... it seems to be a "Samyang 24mm T1.5 AS IF UMC II VDSLR" which Pale mounts in this video. After seeing the yt-video about Fuji-Lense recommendations for video use, i would also like to hear, what you, Pale, are using others/cinelenses for especially :)
@@PalleSchultz Haha during some jobs I have to shoot both video and photo ex. during fashion shoots we do photo and video for each outfit. Normally I use two cameras but I would like to use one camera if possible.
@@charlesnetzler2262 Then you should check out the X-T4 when it comes out. Video and stills are completely separate now and one flick of a switch will bring you to your preferred settings for both.
@@charlesnetzler2262 And yes, the hotshoe is kept clear. But consider what you mount on the cage, cause a handle could steal space. So I would mount a handle onto a nato rail, så I could quickly detach it, if a trigger is needed.
The video possibilities are very impressive. The new HLG mode has so much headroom that it is insane. But for smooth stuff, tripod and gimbals are a must. So if you want to punish your computer with high quality files, It in't all bad. But I can't help think of, how a X-H1 with the X-T3 hardware could do... It would be a monster.
Hey, I'm in the same boat. I need a hybrid camera for travelling and creating quality video and stills. Travelling as light as possible and in a van with solar so less batteries to charge the better, hence I want to avoid a gimbal and the IBIS of that XH1 is swaying me. Plus I'm on a Macbook pro on the road so will need to shoot in the smaller file sizes and not be able to take FULL advantage of the XT3 abilities, still an amazing camera and would be nice to have the best of I ever wanted to use them. Did you make your decision in the end? I'm still torn.
Hello, first of all thanks for your video ... please would you tell me if that wooden handle with start/stop trigger by smallrig is sony model and it just works also on Fuji xt3?

Will this help keep the 16-50mm 2.8 steady on the XT3?
Hi Palle, thanks for sharing again. May I know how many stop overexposed when you shooting F-Log or maybe you can make a quick tip video about that?
I try not to overexpose. But find a compromise, that will benefit both high and low. I'm making a video about grading now, but also the settings.

What do you prefere for shooting with the xt3, a Rig or a Gimbal and why?
A rig, because a gimbal still makes its own decisions and suddenly want's to look in another direction than I. It is an indirect feeling. With a rig, it is all my decisions with very direct interaction with the movement.

And if you use the Rig, do you have ois stabilisation off, while shooting?

I enjoyed this video. Do you use a gimbal for handheld shooting? If not, how do you deal with camera shake?
I hate those things, but are currently trying a Moza. I like handheld and tripods beyond anything.
Nice video again! Do you need a special connector for the Deity V-Mic D3 Pro to plug into the XT3?
just a trs cable. As explained in the video ;)
Damn, that rig just looks sexy !
Question : which one do you think is the most balanced/practical to use, this kind of rig, or on a gimbal/glidecam ?
Great video, I am also considering rigging my camera this way but do the small rig cages block the cold shoe for off-camera flash triggers?

Heliopan - most neutral ND i've tried yet. XH1 and X-T3.... If they were combined - X-H1 with the X-T3 hardware, it would be incredible.
can the wooden handle also trigger shutter for photos?
When the camera is set to shooting stills, the trigger will release the shutter.
