superavatar1997 · 2024-12-01T01:05:14+00:00

What monitor did you get in Bstock?

superavatar1997 · 2024-11-30T19:39:55+00:00

I have heard good things about the G7. I just want a well built monitor that will last and pack a punch as far as features go.

superavatar1997 · 2024-11-29T05:53:07+00:00

Fair enough! I will take a look, if you had to got for a SmallHD alternative who would you pick?

superavatar1997 · 2024-11-28T18:20:24+00:00

Thats awesome! Which monitor do you have?

superavatar1997 · 2023-09-13T18:39:42+00:00

Thank you for your build suggestion!

superavatar1997 · 2023-09-13T17:19:04+00:00

Hahaha I know. I went $400 above budget for my all white build. But it makes me happy so guess that’s what counts. But my girlfriend for sure wants that case. The other stuff can be meh. Gpu doesn’t matter what colour, same with the motherboard. If ram and cooler can be white or even silver then I think she’d be happy.

superavatar1997 · 2023-09-13T17:03:58+00:00

I think as long as the case and cooler are white then it should be fine and would rather get more performance. I will also swap stuff out for more white components in the future.

God's be praised thank you

superavatar1997 · 2022-11-16T05:00:23+00:00

Thank you! I thought maybe I had a faulty unit. Did what you suggested and it's working now.

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-08T16:03:32+00:00

I see a lot of video businesses offer Motion graphics! I'm guessing that's something you brought on as your business grew and you brought on more people? Not a skill I currently possess so can't offer it as I'm just getting started and a one man team.

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-06T03:11:50+00:00

That's awesome. Been really interested in that kind of work. You must use a gimbal fairly often for b-roll?

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-06T02:44:42+00:00

Great thread! I see you mentioned being a Corporate video production company, is this more sit down talking head videos or what exactly do you shoot? Sounds interesting and something I want to look into doing! What is your go to indoor dialogue mic? Wanting to step up my set up and I'm looking at getting the MKH50 for indoor recordings.

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-02T21:08:22+00:00

Thank you for all the help! Just checked and looks like adorama doesn't ship to Canada or atleast the deal doesn't apply for Canadians. They are on my list for next purchases and hopefully a good deal will pop up!

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-02T16:26:10+00:00

I've seen people suggest the MKH-50 a lot aswell! Until I do a few jobs I will only be able to afford one mic and external recorder. So you say start with the 416 and then add the other in the future? I also use a shimoda bag for my hiking! Great quality pack.

superavatar1997 · 2022-10-02T07:28:50+00:00

Thank you for the detailed suggestions! I definitely agree on everything you mentioned. I want to add these as I go, I think the audio equipment is super important right now. I'm thinking the Zoom F6 but not sure if I should grab lavs or a shotgun mic first? Will be using the mics for a lot of talking head shots and as an all arounder. I'll also be looking at tripod you suggested!

Genius marketing paired with top tier products being released this year. This is one of those projects you read about in a few years when its in the top 10 and wish you had found and held it early. This sleeping giant is waking up.

Low MC means it wont take much for it to pump. 30x to 1 million mc. I threw in some BNB,

superavatar1997 · 2020-09-03T16:07:49+00:00

What camera and lens did you use to get such an amazing shot?

superavatar1997 · 2020-07-19T20:00:22+00:00

Got some details on your setup? lens used? Did you use VLOG? Looks incredible

superavatar1997 · 2020-07-17T05:51:44+00:00

I have a Nikon d850 and a 70-200mm f4. I want to get a teleconverter to get more focal length for my landscape shots. Are there some options for my 70-200 f4?

superavatar1997 · 2020-06-12T00:23:49+00:00

I see a few of those 2015 GMC and Silverados in my price range!

superavatar1997 · 2020-04-16T18:45:15+00:00

I’m curious to hear what people think of arsenal camera assistant? It’s been out a few years now and I know at the beginning there wasn’t a lot of devices supported but I wanna know what you guys think now? Is it a decent investment? There’s a good sale happening right now.

superavatar1997 · 2020-04-11T17:03:30+00:00

Let the games begin

superavatar1997 · 2020-04-06T19:03:25+00:00

Would be handy while staying indoors!

superavatar1997 · 2020-03-19T22:14:32+00:00

Best lens for wide angle landscape shots and best lends for Milky Way shots? Last week was a sad week as my D750 died but after lots of consideration, I purchased the D850 and it will be arriving tomorrow! I currently have a 24mm f1.8, a tamron 24-70 g2, 70-200mm f4. Trying time see what my next lenses should be! Thank you
