Watching with a smile on my face ...your food shots are amazing 👍🏾👍🏾 lovely demo
REALLY good rig choice here. Thanks for sharing!
Smallrig just sent me their mattebox and follow focus. Can't wait to try it!
This is so helpful! Thanks!
Looking great dude - awesome video 🤙
Really cool setup and video nicely edited!
It'd be great if you included a list of items used for your build, as well as their links so it's easier for us to follow along and have easy access. Great rig, by the way!!
Facts
Nice, great job demoing the gears. I'm convinced. Picking up a set soon.
Just love your videos. THANK YOU!
Niiiice! Adding these components to the shopping list :))
Nice video and rig. With my LUMIX S1H I am a Smallrig boy, too. Just received their mini mattebox- what a game changer with the variable ND filter.
But I am going to exchange my top handle for one from Nietze because of more comfort for my hand with the high weight of my Setup, even w/o V-mount batteries.
thanks
thanx!
awesome! this is exactly how i wanna build mine.
I love your videos dude ! U are natural
I really like your camera's dynamic range.
“This is-lit” 💥🔥
Great video. Thank you. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great video, subscribed
That is really a sweet rig man. I like small rig stuff too. Awesome video. I am not sure if you have a full tutorial on how to get clients for food photography and a full video shoot start to finish. Equipment list, lighting techniques, and other tools including editing. Thank so much fo your great videos. Cheers
Great video! Out of curiosity, do you really need the lens support part? The lens doesn't seem to be that long or heavy.
Can you link directly to the v-mount pieces you used on this rig? I’m not having any luck searching on my own or through the links in the description. Thanks in advance!
Your infomercials are the best
Lol thanks
Wow great video! I have the small rig cage and handle, so a good start.... 😁👍
HI, great channel and thank you for the detailed explanation! Recently I bought 2 Anton Bauer Titon micro 150 v-mount batteries for my BM 6k Pro and I would like to ask if it's safe to power the camera and monitor from the same battery. I have read hundreds of issues frying the hdmi port on BM cameras by doing this. It was a construction flaw from BM. I don't know if it has been fixed with their new 6k Pro though. Are you aware of this and if yes, how do you proceed with the connections and the safety in mind. Best Regards
Nicely done man! It feels compact and I agree with you regarding to the 15mm rods length, I use the 12” and they feel fine with my setup but keep in mind the fact that some bmpcc6k owners have reported getting their HDMI module fried because there’s some problem with the circuits of how the camera was built and it’s better practice to use an independent battery for your monitor. I use the ZILR battery series NP-F970 wich have a usb-c port so I can feed a wireless transmitter or wireless follow focus. It makes it a little bulkier because of that extra battery but better not taking chances on frying my HDMI module.
This doesn’t happen with other cinema cameras by the way, it’s just the bmpcc6k
Regards!
I was waiting for this comment. This exact thing happened to me. Any BM6k build I see on youtube I cringe when I see the monitor powered by the same battery.
This DOES happen to other cinema cameras just as frequently as it does the BMD. Both HDMI and SDIs fry all the time on Reds and Arri because of poor practices/poor design on manufacturers. It only seems more frequent on BMD cameras because they are cheaper and thus more accessible. I agree to use a seperate battery though.
No matter what brand you should just never hot swap batteries. I turn everything off any time I swap.
Thanks for the great video! Would you mind linking the cables you used as well?
Just a hint: The part on the left side (where you attached the Nato-Rail) is already a Nato-Rail :) you can clamp accessories like handles directly to it
Epic
Hey, great video. Q: which samsung ssd model are you using, and can you record 6K raw on it? thx
Hey! Great video, thx a lot! What is the V Mount battery featured in ?
You said "say hi"...so I'm saying, hi! 😀👍🏽👍🏽
excelent
Can I get a link to the baseplate your using? Thanks
These cages get expensive fast. I was able to actually get the cage used which saved me $30 the base plate with the rod holders cost almost as much as the cage. two rods the the small clamps to hold the hdmi and c port cable. I'm glad I watched your video and showed the bottom for the SSD I almost bought that. and a side handle I was over $200. I'm use to just buying cheaper stuff for panasonic G models, but this is a great camera and want to take really good care and be able to get everything. This is what I can do for now especially since I just bought the camera so $$$ is tight but I needed something
What is that D-Tap splitter and V-mount unit?
good stuff, did you know that you don't need a nato rail to clamp on that side handle, right? the cage has an integrated nato rail there
Just wanted to say that haha. He doesn't know!
Nice ad.
Whats this blue cable? I liked it alot. Where can we find this TYP C cable? TY
Hi , What’s the lens you’re using in the build?
Great video so inspiring I do have the pocket 6k G2 and wanted to get the edlekrone setup can you list the parts for edlekrone do you have links
I don't have links, but my personal favorites from Edelkrone are their HeadOne with turntable black and white acrylic tops. And their slider, but there there might be better sliders out there. If you need professional sliders. I use Dana Dolly on client shoots. They are a much more stable, although its a bigger investment, they can accommodate so much more weight and give silky smooth shots. I end up renting those kits just for the day. The Edelkrone jib might be a good buy, however.
Can you please post links to the rest of the parts?
Interested if this is the battery plate and arm: SmallRig V Mount Battery Adapter Plate with Adjustable Arm 3204. Also was curious if you had a link to that d tap splitter, it seems pretty ideal for the build. Great video!
Hey; I know this doesn’t have anything to do with this video but are you experiencing any of the infrared issues with the internal ND? In bright light? I want to order this camera but am hearing about this now.
can u share v mount plate details
Smallrig makes one and there are third party ones that have usb ports as well
Would this all be applicable on an R6 Cage?
Nice rig. I kept changing my BMPCC 6K rig until I finally settled on the one in my videos. How is the Blackmagic monitor out in bright sunlight? Have a nice day.
I can't seem to find a link to that baseplate in your description, could you share? Thanks
Nice Video! Does it work with 6k?
Great video. We are about to purchase the same camera and we’re looking for the perfect setup. Quick question, if we remove the bottom half of the cage to accommodate the battery grip for this camera, do we still have a mounting location for the Samsung SSD?
Hey just get the small rig SSD mount for t5
Hi.
Could you please give the exact parts used on your rig for BMPCC 6K Pro and the links to them.
Thank you.
Sik shirt bro 🤘
Would this work with battery grip ?
where's the link for the base plate and rods?
Thanks for sharing! While using that 50, is it a true 50? or is the focal length impacted by the cropped sensor?
If there's a crop, it affects the field of view... so, yeah
Simple, sweet and straight to the point. No narcissistically arrogant unnecessary stupid jokes. LIKE it man 👍🏻
I wanna shoot jewelry and food videos. I wonder i should go for a canon eos r with 100m 2.8 or go the bmpc 6k pro route. Maybe you can help le decide?
You didn’t talk about the vmount battery and how it’s connected. I cant seem to get my 6k Pro powered on. Do you use a cable or dummy battery?
is the video assist connected to the vmount while it's also connected to the camera? Doesn't that make a ground loop?
Nice, I will probably go for the DJI RS2, along with the extension to mount it onto the slider, as RS2 itself, along with wireless transmition, allows for many nice scenarios. Working with some of Small Rig stuff too :-) Man, I really admire your work - perfect!
Awesome rig,
Can you indicate roughly how much it cost to build a rig like this?
How can I find this kind of filter size for this mini mattebox?
How many hours do you get out of that battery with BMPCC6K pro and Video Assist 7”?
Weren't you afraid connecting a BPCC and Video Assist to one power source? Some people complain this kind of connections can burn out a BPCC connectors
What monitor is that?
great video xDDD
But I have still some questions as it's pretty hard to choose between the 6k and 6k pro haha. I've never had a video camera, so I'm somehow afraid that it will be too heavy with the Pocket 6k Pro (1.2 kg DJI Rs 2 stabilizer, 800g Sigma 18-35 mm, 1.2 kg Pocket 6k Pro, and another battery or SSD.) Do you think that could be the case? Especially when you e.g. film the whole day or when you travel and still have a drone. I also wonder if the 6k Pro's "tilting screen" is really necessary? (I filmed with the Gopro and the cell phone on a stabilizer and never really had any problems, even when I walked very close to the floor. Maybe it's different with the camera, as many 6k users said it is necessary). Buying one later would make less sense, as it costs more and is perhaps even more uncomfortable if you use the stabilizer and fix a "DJI 3D focus system" / microphone on the "head" of the camera. I've already looked a bit on the internet and apparently the 6k Pro fits on the RS 2, but it's not yet entirely clear to me whether that's really true. I have one last question then I say more than thank you; Do you actually need nd filters a lot in filmmaking?
thxx
In my experience when filming with the 6k without the tilting screen you would need to buy a separate monitor for the top of the camera.
With the 6k pro the tilting monitor makes low shots easier without having to buy a separate monitor.
And i thought i heard you say you would list the parts.
This is really a great build. But as I’m noticing from the other comments, you forgot to list the parts! And the link to the small rig is broken. Could you please list the parts to your awesome build! Thanks.😊
how about light rigging with RS2
Which base plate did you use? The link isn't in the description
I love this! I wish I have 🤑
Start with the cage then overtime add the handle (20$) then a ssd $99) thats how ive done it. Smallrig is actually really affordable and terrific quality- like pocket money prices
@@Mr_Kenneth I'm still saving for the camera 😭 I just love this videos. So talented.
Quick question, would you still be able to mount a Rode shotgun mike lets say with this rig?
Yeah totally there is a spot to the left
Interesting use of matte box. I was going to get that exact one but then saw how much ND filters cost for the rectangle one. The bmpcc of course has it built in but I would use the matte box also for my eos r when using that for video instead.
Side note: I know you love small rig but have you checked out Titla? They have the Nucleus follow focus which is wireless. So you can attach the motor to the lens and the focus wheel can be mounted on a rail OR just handheld off the whole rig. :) makes for ease of use on slider or even have an assistant just pulling focus while you compose the shot.
Cheers.
I like their side handles with a focus wheel
dont know if you know but you put a nato rail on top of a nato rail on the side... not sure if that was intentional or not
Does this build work with the 4K camera? I’m assuming it does, but just making sure
This is my camera.......so thanku so much....then . feel soo sad because ...I don't have cam.....☹️
I didn't know that small rig has that parts
At 3:30 you're putting a nato rail onto a nato rail. In case you didn't know!
Yes it makes the handle stick out farther from the body for a more comfortable grip
I cant find the description. Can you please list the materials here please?
Would have been much more helpful if it wasn't simply a plug for smallrig. Did you use the monitor basically because you already had it and it fit with your entirely smallrig setup? You are the only person I've seen using one. The beauty of the pro is the bright tilt screen that is supposed to negate the need for an external monitor.
Yeah i get you, its a plug for SmallRig, as far as the monitor, i use it a lot for the top down view because I do a lot of that in my work
Bro, what resolution and FPS did you use for the slow mo?
2K 120fps
@@skylerburtphotos I really wish the 6K Pro would have 4K 120fps (noncrop). Anyway, what lens did you use?
Why do you screw a NATO rail onto the integrated NATO rail?
I have a very basic question for you: whenever I mount my camera onto the tripod's hot shoe, the screw gets loose and it eventually begins rotating. Is there a way to prevent this? I don't use a full cage on my camera...do full cages have some sort of mechanism that prevents rotation? Thank you!
By hot-shoe do you mean base plate?
Normally cameras only have one mounting hole/thread underneath them where you mount a baseplate. Over time, it's pretty common for them to come loose.
If you get a good camera cage, and as long as you have a good tripod baseplate, it will have at least two mounting holes/threads on the base so you can then screw two scews into it to prevent twisting and it coming loose over time.
@@ThermaltakeAustralia thanks for your reply. That's exactly what I meant. I have the camera, then a smallrig universal baseplate for the rods, and then my tripod baseplate. I tried attaching two screws, as you suggested, but I think there must be a part missing between the rod baseplate and the tripod baseplate, since the rod baseplate won't attach well with two screws.... thanks for the information
Can I fully control my 6K Pro with the Video Assist monitors? No one can give me a straight answer. Seems the only one I can find is the Portkeys BM5. Am I missing something? I already have the Small HD Focus 7 which is useless.
Not really; the monitors are simply to, well, monitor the video. However, they will have their own tools included (such as false color, zebra striping, guides, LUT emulation) so really the only things you need to control on your camera are things like ISO, shutter speed, the record button and the lens stuff. The other controls are really just stuff you shouldn't be touching much during a shoot, so covering the BMPCC's screen with a battery isn't a huge hassle. But the other advantage of having a monitor is that you can angle it so it's always visible and ergonomic no matter where the camera is. Or you could use a long cable/wifi to have other people monitor whilst you're shooting (for instance a director, an assistant doing follow focus, etc).
Hi sir i would like to ask about raw meat photography how to make the meat fresh and prevent oxidation?
how did you remove the port covers?
You just pull them out
Hi!
Why would you screw on a polarizing filter under the matte box? Isn't the whole point of using one to be able to rotate it so that some directional light waves are blocked?
I thought you said you would list the items in the video
Can't see the link for filters you use for mini matte box
He might not use any as the camera has built in ND's
@@DrHansBrewery I'm not talking about the built in ND filters. He used ND on the matt box. Thanks for taking the pun though
Dumb question : is it possible to split this cage in half like most of them ? I'm worried I won't be able to use the extra battery clip under it if it does not.
The great thing about these rigs is you can build them as you like, I use mostly the cage and the side handle
how much does everything cost?
Hey man, how are you satisfied with noise in 6K PRO?
4k + speed booster seems to produce significantly less noise
Recommends 15 inch rods... Are you building a house?
Hmm, the lens support doesn’t reach my Sigma 18-35 with this build 🤔
Why didn’t you list all of the pieces you use? Im a newbie. How the hell am I supposed to know which one to pick
I don’t think I need a rig for my 6k pro for shooting documentaries. All I need is my camera and a good lens.
hi
Is that background real?!?!?!? Do you live in the mountains man!?!
I got a 6k pro and no rig just a lens abs camera
Still get high clients
Don’t need any rugs
