I wouldn't write off the EVF so quickly. The LCD monitor is more for reference anyway, but using the actual EVF eyepiece is much better than an external monitor in my opinion. Aside from an accurate picture of your frame, you also benefit from a focused view, sans distractions or ambient light, of what you're shooting. External monitors have brought so much convenience to filmmakers, but there are some real upsides to the old school method of using an eyepiece.

matti is more a youtuber with excess funds aspiring to do his first real thing. Feels like the step from mirrorless to ARRI is not up to the skillset yet. you'll find a lot of DoPs using viewfinders on real sets. be it commercial or film. Still envy him for being able to afford this, even if it's more like a toy than a workhorse for him.

@Saint_Cephas 9 ай бұрын

I have bad eyes, I used to have to use the eyepiece shooting basketball games and I was always getting soft images trying to focus. But I can see your point

I've worked in the film industry for a little over 23 years and it's crazy how much camera equipment has been minimized. It used to be a pain to get space on a set with the old 35mm cameras, worse if the magazines were 1000ft. Now it's much easier to move around, especially for steadycam operators. Great video Matti, I really enjoyed it

Still, compared to consumer cameras, these are giant. Probably they don't use custom silicone, otherwise it could be 4-5 times smaller.

And what about Sony Venice cameras, where you can detach whole sensor and hold just a little box, while rest of the camera is on your back or somewhere else conected via cable (up to 12 meters) and fit it places you would never be able to. James Cameron could walk around with whole two sensor IMAX 3D camera rig by himself.

The EVF to me is one of the best features of the LF…allthough yes, the screen could definitely be better but tp be able to switch quickly between evf and a screen is very practical, and when run-and gunning i dont really think you need a seperate monitor. I really miss this on other cameras which often dont have such an integrated EVF

I wish this video existed years ago but I am glad you made it. It will definitely help a lot of people who are starting out never having touched an arri before. It is important to note that for power while you can have lower voltage batteries, for the arri 35 and the red monstro you need 24 volts. And this is for anyone to know, because if you get either of those cameras on a project and you don't have 24 volt batteries the camera will NOT turn on at all. Hope this helps someone.

Also for accesories, I’d invest in some 2-pin lemo to 2-pin lemo cables for power distro. Lemo is significantly more reliable than those shitty plastic P-taps. P.S. That battery plate has P-tap ports on it. Much better to route from there instead of the battery so swaps are easier I have to add “Camera AC” means Camera Assistant Camera lol. 1st AC or 2nd AC is fine. Sincerely, an experienced 1st AC lol
