@hughchal 3 жыл бұрын
Lovin these videos Griffin, always take away a load of new ideas. Just wondering, how did you rig that teradek to the C70? On a separate stand? I ended up using a load of cable ties to strap a vlok to the teradek, and the magic-armed that to the tripod so I was still vaguely mobile. Not ideal, crude, but it worked. Anyway, looking forward to a future episode where you talk about nailing exposure in c-log2 :)
@GriffinConway 3 жыл бұрын
Hey Hugh! So I used a magic arm with a clamp on one end to clamp to the pan/tilt arm on the tripod. I have a cage coming for the c70 soon and that will help solve rigging issues. Also, I am still planning a video on proper clog 2 exposure soon!
@JaimeAndresMedia 3 жыл бұрын
Love this content, I’m pushing my c70 to its limits, specially in low light, I’d love for you to do a video on what is the best picture profile and settings for the c70 in low light
@GriffinConway 3 жыл бұрын
I always shoot clog2. Do you use the speedbooster? It will give you one extra stop of light. Also, I would suggest using lenses with wide apertures and try to keep iso at 3200 or below. If you are shooting higher than that, I would suggest bringing lights, as it will help the look of your shot anyway.
@JaimeAndresMedia 3 жыл бұрын
@@GriffinConway thank you for taking the time to respond! I also use clog2 most of the time, but I’ve been experimenting with HLG and getting surprisingly good results in low light. I do events where light changes constantly and I don’t have the time to tweak settings or I’ll miss the moment, so HLG with auto ISO is very effective, or at least seems that way. I haven’t seen anyone talk about using HLG in a c70. I’d be cool to see that on KZfaq

Love your vids man. I got a couple Core SWX Nanos for my C70 and it was very helpful over the stock battery. One other thing I did was purchase the CAMVATE Male DTap to 4port female hub so I can power my follow focus, atomos ninja and wireless video from the battery. It works like a charm, I did cut and shorten the cable so it is out of the way, and added velcro to the hub and on the left side of the batteries where it protrudes out of the C70. Great little setup!

Thanks Craig! I think it’s called “teleprompter” in the App Store. It worked great for us.

Hey Griffin great BTS! I missed the Virtual Canon Burbank event today, so I’ll post my question here… How often do you shoot your interviews in RAW on the C500? And when you do, do you still use the C70 for b-roll? Also is that a Atomos Sumo? If so, how do you like it?
@GriffinConway 3 жыл бұрын
Hey Scott! No worries at all! I rarely shoot interviews in raw because of the file size. I like the XFAVC because it’s still 10 bit 422 and works great. When I do shoot raw, I still don’t mind pairing the r c70 with the c500 mark ii. I did it on a recent fitness commercial that I posted about. The sumo 19 is great. I have the sumo 19 monitor version but wish I had the one with the recording capability built in. Really nice option for a client multi viewer. Not the greatest overall panel for sharpness but definitely good enough for a director / client monitor.
