Answers to questions you might have:
- i filmed this video with Sony Rx100v
- I usually use autofocus, not manual focus, on the gimbal
- I leave IBIS on when I'm using a gimbal
- I don’t have Zhiyun Crane 2 yet but there’s no reason not to upgrade, so I include v2 in the kit link
- I have not used the Crane M and I don't know anything about it
- I have not used Ronin, Feyu, etc
- I use EOSHD picture profile on a6500. You have to buy it from www.eoshd.com

What I appreciate is you thoroughly use the gear you have and you produce incredible content from them. Many people seem to have all the different cameras but don't actually do much with them, just review them.

Instead of buying the Sony A6500 I used my money to build a time machine. Now I own the Sony A7S CXXIV. Couldn't be happier!

I love this style of video, not overly edited you just sat down and dumped a load of professional wisdom on us and included all the example shots of of what you were talking about, I'm so tired of the distracting video editing style of new youtubers. Anyway thanks for taking the time and effort to teach us stuff!

@danzelhill 7 жыл бұрын

Man, I'm happy to see the first three lenses you present are exactly the ones I have bought and use. And I love them, love the 35 mm the most, pictures are awesome. And the 18-105 mm is better than I thought it'd be, love the fact that it doesn't change length when zooming, it's perfect on a gimbal.

Hey Brandon! Love all your vids, from your films to your vlog/review content. Thanks for this one, it was pretty helpful! Just to add, I've actually been able to balance and use an A7SII with the 24-240 and the Rokinon/Samyang 35mm f/1.4 on the Zhiyun Crane V2, but I do have to be extra careful to prevent significant camera shake. But definitely using the 18-105 I think would be a better option for gimbal work so I might actually use that instead, in crop mode, so I'm not stuck on one focal length.

You're right man the Zhiyun Crane with the 6500/6300 with that 10-18 F4 or the 35 F1.8 is just a killer set up!! I even mount the rode mic on top when using the gimbal once in a while cause you know.. what the hell lol
