Just to give you a heads up, I know on your video you said you want a monitor, but the G7 Doesn't support Recording and sending signal to the Monitor, as soon as you hit record, the Monitor loses signal. You can use it to set up a shot before hand but that's about it.
Nice. I just got a rokinon 35mm and I wanted to add follow focus or focus pull. I think what turns the budget into 1k is either the lens, the body or both. All I need is the cage, and the rails for the follow focus.
@@EchoRhythmMusic when recording on the g7, it does not send output of what you see on the camera monitor to an external monitor, the external monitor just turns black. It only sends the output when you are not recording so you can still use it to frame your shots and use it for focus but as soon as you press the record button, your external monitor blacks out.
I cannot find the rig for the G7 the one you use doesn't show up on Amazon anymore or just doesn't exist? any help to where you found you smallrig rig for the Lumix G7
Should have mounted a phone to the top and used the Panasonic app to monitor video, the matte box won’t really do anything as you already had a lens hood and if you wanted to shoot wide open you would want as much light as possible to hit the sensor and the box would just block it, I would never buy one unless I was using it for filters
Lens is the Nikon 50mm 1.8! I actually have a video coming out about it on Sunday if you want to hear more. And nope, the cage is independent of the rail system.
It’s a fine, cheap lens that’s super light and has pretty good image quality. It’s just really small and the focus ring doesn’t work great, so this rig would look quite ridiculous is size.

Really?? That’s so lame
@@tavakessler but the tripod???
what tripod can i use with the G7?
Any!
@@tavakessler oh..So Easy!
Literally just bought the camera, looking forward to using it
It’s a solid one!
@@tavakessler waiting on my delivery now
Great video, I been shooting with the G7 for over a year now and starting to build my rig
Nice video man! Keep up the good work
Awesome, thank you for the nicely put together info 😊
Karim Davis Films look at my video Victim
@@MoneyyMike okay random Internet person whom I am just going to trust for the heck of it 😬 let us see where this takes me!!!
Awesome video, that setup is great!

Congrats on the lens! That’ll be a sweet setup
🙏🙏 I use the G7
dope
I love my G7 for its compact design. I'm a bit confused at how over sized your camera is now
Neet. I would have put the follow focus on the other side cause the grip on the cage is on the right. Great video though. Straight to the point 👍
Yeah the positioning isn’t great, but thanks!
Thanks for making this video... noice!
excellent info for my g7 camera setup
Great video
Thanks!
Do you have a link for the lens you used?
Just in FYI you can use a external monitor. But will turn off when you record.
Jay mass I’m buying this camera. What exactly do you mean?

I was looking at that on amazon. I didnt realize how big it was lol
Lmao yep 😂
Full Respet For All Information In This Video 👌👍🙏
i am going to try this
I just ordered a g7 I sold my first one it's so dope!
Nice video. Thanks!
I have one but need mine setting up properly
Where's the link for the lens?
Hello you type of Lumix G7 are DMC model?
I cannot find the rig for the G7 the one you use doesn't show up on Amazon anymore or just doesn't exist? any help to where you found you smallrig rig for the Lumix G7

Just upgraded to the g7👍
Congrats! It’s a great camera
Background music name please

Hey, what adapter are you using for micro four thirds to the Nikon 50 mm lens?
bro none of these items are available on amazon :(
How did you get a nikon lens to fit the G7? What adaptor do i need?
Nikon F mount to MFT!
@@tavakessler thanks for the quick reply.
bro the rig doesnt exist and i really need one please help, i dont want to buy from hungary

Yeah I agree. The phone mount is a good idea. The WiFi transfer lags a bit but could still be useful
A sun hood and a matte box 🦆
Was there a Micro Four Thirds adapter on that Nikon 50mm lens ?
Yep
What kind of lens are you using? And did you have to use a cheese plate with the rail system for the cage?
Lens is the Nikon 50mm 1.8! I actually have a video coming out about it on Sunday if you want to hear more. And nope, the cage is independent of the rail system.
@@tavakessler I’m putting my rig together and I got a rail system from small rig I’m just wondering if I needed a cheese plate to attach it?
Ohhh, I see. Not exactly sure, I’ve never used small rig rails.
@@tavakessler fair enough, thank you man
What do you think about the Panasonic 25mm 1.7 in this rig?
It’s a fine, cheap lens that’s super light and has pretty good image quality. It’s just really small and the focus ring doesn’t work great, so this rig would look quite ridiculous is size.
What’s the lens
Nikon 50mm 1.8; but I’d recommend a cinema lens over that
Can we use NIKON LENSES without adapter in G7???
Nope, wrong lens mount type
It sucks you can't use a monitor to film on the G7 but vou can use your phone
Yeah it does suck
@@tavakessler it's not live but the play back is still useful
is there any solution to use external monitor for lumix g7?
I have not tried. But apparently you can use it to frame up shots, but once you record it turns off. Not aware of any workarounds.
Did you buy a monitor yet?
Nope! Apparently they don’t work with this camera while it’s recording which is very unfortunate
@@tavakessler I just bought Feelworld f6 for my g7. Yes it does fit off while recording but it works wonders for framing the shot and photos as well
Love this small camera!! Use it to film and produce my RUclips Show #davidofthedesert !!
With the G7 you can't use a external Monitor while shooting Videos!
I’ve heard :( really unfortunate
Don't you mean the follow focus? A focus puller is a 1st AC. Great video tho!
A follow focus for the focus puller (or 1st ac) if you have one
UGH, the music...
Too bad he did not include the extended life usb battery, microphone amp and external microphone.
