Great review Gabi. Extremely clear, straight to the point and visually pleasing! Also I really like the lighting 👌🏻 Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks a LOT for the comment, Keidi!! Yes, one is in the works right now and will publish it in a few days. Thanks again!!
Great video! Informative and to the point. You nailed the product shots and editing!
Thanks much, Kasper!! Much obliged :-))
Nice job Gabi! If I ever to buy the BM I can see this is the cage to buy.
Thanks Jeff! Make sure to buy the right one if you get the BMPCC 6k. The one made for the 4K won't fit the 6k. :-)
Good video bro!!
Thanks a LOT!!
Quick question,
what are you mounting the base plate on to? I can't seem to find that in your description. Are you using a dovetail plate?
I am just using a Manfrotto Mounting Plate (501PL) via a 14" screw attached to the dovetail part of the baseplate
This turned out amazing. One small comment I have is that some of the intro shots felt a bit too fast for me, I had to either read the text or look at what the shot was showing.
Can’t wait to your next one!
Good point, Ivar! Thanks a lot for the comment. It sure is a bit fast. Thank you!!!
photogabi it’s just that it’s all so beautiful to look at!
@@iamivar haha! you meant the camera, right? ;-)
@@Photogabi haha amongst others ;-)
Good video review sharing. Thank you. I'm done
you are welcome!
Which HDMI cable you using here?
It's the Monoprice High Speed HDMI Cable 1 Feet long from Amazon
Well done Gabi ✨👌
Thanks a lot, Jovo!
hey gabi, amazing shots and review, would love to see a how to for the intro :D
one question: do you think one can remove the dovetail part of the baseplate to attach a different quick release option?
i know i can attach my plate on the dovetail part, but i want to keep the weight as low as possible
thank you
Thanks a lot for the reply, Melo! Good idea for an intro tutorial. I'll put that down on my list. I don't you can since that piece includes the locks for the 15mm rails. But you can attach a Manfrotto Mounting Plate (501PL) via a 14" screw and use that plate to attach to other compatible Manfrotto tripod heads. Hope it makes sense.
@@Photogabi I am looking forward to that tutorial bud 👌
Really? it looks like the rod tighteners are above that🤔
@@melomaisano Just checked. You are right about the rod fasteners. However, the baseplate has four screws that don't have standard hex sizes. I found a hex key that was smaller, but the wouldn't budge and I ended up stripping one, lol. I'm thinking that the designers meant that place to stay in place. My best suggestion is to attach the Manfrotto Mounting Plate (501P) to the baseplate.
@@Photogabi oh damn I'm sorry you stripped the screwhead 😞
I actually bought one myself and with the right Allen key it was pretty easy and I attached my arca Swiss plate.
@@melomaisano haha - don't worry, man. it doesn't bother me at all. So you were able to take off that Tilta dovetail plate to replace it with the Swiss plate? That's rad!
Can the base plate attach to any tripod?
The baseplate is compatible with Tilta-standard dovetails. I have a Manfrotto Mounting Plate (501PL) attached to the baseplate since I have the Manfrotto 577 Rapid Connect Adapters on my tripods
Hey Gabi, nice Video, thanks for that! I am currently also considering this Cage for my BMPCC 4K. How fast can you switch from handheld/tripod to gimbal use with this cage? Did you try that?
Thanks Danilo! To be honest I didn't try it. But if you consider taking off the handle which comes off quite easily (there's a screw), and considering that you already have a universal mounting plate that would work for your tripod and gimbal, sliding the two 15mm rods is fast also, it should be fairly fast. Also if you have the gimbal pre-balanced will help also.
To make it even faster, you could buy a secondary baseplate that you have attached to the gimbal so all you need to do is slide out the cage and slide it in the one on the gimbal if that makes sense. In that case you only need to unmount the handle. Hope it makes sense.
Awesome video!! Does it turn into a half cage?
Thanks a lot for the comment! Yes, it does. Makes it lighter with a few ounces, to be mounted on a gimbal.
can u use small rig and tilta at the same time
You mean mixing parts from each manufacturer? Not sure of that. Do you have anything specific in mind?
