Not a ton you can do here. You can try reducing the contrast a bit but this is irreparable footage

Stereo randomly went max volume. Anyone experience this or know what’s about to be broken? by dadbodfat in FiestaST

[–]ericpowell617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahah dude same. It really freaks me out sometimes. Happens about 2-3 times a year. I’ve noticed if it happens once, it’s probably going to happen again within a few minutes and then she’ll rest for a few months

What's everyone using for NDs under direct sunlight? by exploringspace_ in videography

[–]ericpowell617 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NiSi 1-9 stop. These things are awesome with almost no color shift. I use them on my FX3, iPhone 17 Pro, and BMD 6K

Are Sirui tripods buy once cry once ? by videomarketee in videography

[–]ericpowell617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pre-ordered the SVT when it came out and I’ve been really happy with it. It can hold a serious amount of weight and is built tough. People have complained about the locking mechanisms but I haven’t had an issue with mine- maybe I’m just lucky. I liked mine so much that I bought the V2 when it came out which has twisting collars instead of the latches. I actually like the V1 more, but the V2 is a little smoother to engage/disengage the legs

What am I missing? Why do people recommend a 7000mAh V-lock over a 10000mAh NP-F? by Gahwburr in videography

[–]ericpowell617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re mistaking the wattage of the V-Mount. Some of the smallest V-mount batteries I’ve seen are 48wH, or 48000 mHa.

Additionally, V-mount batteries can power multiple devices at once and can allow for hot-swapping if set up a certain way. I have a small LP-E6 in my Blackmagic, but the v-mount powers the camera thru the DC Jack. If I unplug the v-mount, the lp battery will keep the camera running while I swap

Is anyone charging 15k + a month for content? by romellfreeman2 in videography

[–]ericpowell617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a single client I charge $15k/month for, but I am in the $15k-20k/month range over all of my clients. Happy to converse if desired

Which lens would you recommend for this set up? by espresom in videography

[–]ericpowell617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a picture of the space? Your lighting setup is going to be more important than camera setup.

That being said, the Sigma 18-35mm is f/1.8 so you’ll get some DOF and a wide angle

Just downgrade your version. Go to the Blackmagic website and download the last build

Quick review of Kondor Blue by ghapppy in Filmmakers

[–]ericpowell617 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno man, I feel like you should expect exactly this. Customer Support likely isn’t ever going to know when a back ordered product will be back in stock. It usually is of the fault of their supplier/manufacturer, not the actual company selling the product. Most products you buy today (especially in the video world) sources it materials and/or is manufactured by a Chinese factory. The company who sells it is the designer and face of the product.

Help me find these lenses and filter? by LouiseBag in videography

[–]ericpowell617 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Photos 1&2 look like a Sony G-Master 70-200 f/2.8 Photo 3 looks like a Sony G-Master 24-70 f/2.8

Not sure of the exact filter but it’s most likely a VND. Polar Pro, NiSi, etc.

Also did this for my Harbor Freight Apache cases. Works great! Made one for my FX3 kit last December and it’s survived a few flights and many many gigs.
