  1. Poor man / DIY from Grimor industries 🤣🤣 It's a gardener Stilh Harness (with 90° aluminum tube) and a cheap rope ratchet with upgraded cord. I buy all the parts for under 100 euros and you can adjust rope length with just one hand. Never use the real easyrig thing, but I think the main difference is mine has no suspension mechanism.
  2. A little BTS of the short film:
  3. The drone images appear because we actually had them from previous days (taken for security reasons) and we decided to give them a use. And slow motion is a narrative decision. First we oredered the voice over with several situations to represent. Then we realized that the dog was unable to stay still for even a single second. All the time playing and jumping. So it was easier to extract expressions if everything is slow. In total it took 5 hours, 180Gb in fast cards and 2 packages of sausages!
  4. Hello to all EOShd members. I haven't been here much this year, but I consider this forum to be my second home. This year has been hard personally (divorce with young children) but we must continue in life with good spirits. So like every year (and it's been 6 now) I link you to my police Christmas greeting: In the tech side it is Sony FX6 in UHD mode at 100fps (S&Q) and S-log, Hi Base Iso. Rokinon lenses. I hope you like it and I send you a hug. Adiós Amigos!!
  5. I recently found a second-hand bargain of 4 betso transceivers for just 150 euros. We usually shoot with 2 jvc GY-hc 500, 1 Sony FX6 and 2 GH5S, plus the SD mixpre 3 II. In this way, although none of them keep time precisely, I can have everything in sync wirelessly, thanks to the transmitters. Surely it is not the most modern or most appropriate, but it works for me.
  6. I´m learning in the hard way! I should have used the "safety channel" mode where a channel is recorded 6 decibels lower than the other. We were not brocasting live. Just recording for post-editing. TC boxes from Denecke or TCS are difficult to find here in Spain. Is easy to find Atomos (ultrasync One/Blue) and Deity. Thank you very much
  7. Well, I agree with everything. At my last rock concert, we used 6 cameras, and only 2 shared the same time code. The sound mixer during rehearsals tested all three of my usb drives and none were recognized by the console (mackie), so no mp3 for me. At least I take my portable recorder (Marantz pmd 661) and adjust the level, since I couldn't keep an eye on it, I put it recording in auto gain mode. Big mistake, because at the start of the concert they turned up the volume and since they didn't have limiter it clipped for almost the entire track. I only had good sound from the rf feed that I took with the G2 and in post production, the synchronization was a nightmare because the clipping prevents the synchronization by wave.
  8. Hi everybody. In my work I normally use multicamera in interviews with 1 Sony and 2 JVC with time code over BNC cable. But I know that it is risky to have the cameras physically linked, because of the risk that someone crosses and throws a piece of equipment when tripping. Also in live events or on stages and performances this connection is unfeasible. So what would be the recommended price-quality version of wireless TC for 3 simultaneous cameras? Deity TC-1 Kit or 3 units of tentacle E? Then another question would be that I have found it really useful to have an RF line feed from the mixing desk of the pavilion or the concert directly to the main camera, where there is no press splitter for wiring. Currently I do it with a sennheiser G2 lavalier transmitter , but the different line and mic gains and the different amplifications make it complicated. So, is there a more profesional way to send Line RF feed, to the camera, for at least 30-40 meters away?? @BTM_Pix @IronFilm@Kisaha @Anaconda_
  9. Another year, I return with my traditional police Christmas video. This year a short film of a thief who climbs the walls dressed as Santa Claus, to camouflage himself as the popular Christmas decoration. Remember that it is a video that we make in which each roll is interpreted by policemen, not actors, and that the technical section this time is made up of some more members of the squad, where only 2 of us have audiovisual knowledge. I hope it makes you laugh at least a small part of what we have laughed shooting it. A greeting to all, and especially to Andrew.
  10. I shoot this with Hollyland Lark 150 dual wireless mics. For the money, I think is good enough.
  11. I was only joking here with the character behind that project, in the same way that he did. I apologize if I have offended you. I have never developed a camera. I don't even dedicate myself full time to filmmaking. Sorry
  12. I'm so sorry to read such bad news, Andrew. You have the full support of the filmmaker community.

    Panasonic GH6

    And don't forget those used "GH5S" now on the sub-1000 land
  14. I like the YT channel "This guy edits" https://youtube.com/c/ThisGuyEdits
  15. [Small correction] I'm getting old and my memory can't remember exactly: They were 2x12 min at 800 watts. I add a photo of one of my bags. They are very hot, you can barely touch them with your bare hands after a few minutes. It exhales a lot of water vapour, probably toxic because the smell is not like water at all. In a recent project, I put a temperature/humidity sensor with a cheap IOT module, so I can check real-time data over the internet from my smartphone all over the world and see graphs of my historical data. If someone is interested I can recover the project
  16. I have big silica bags (1kg) I'm my gear closet. I usually reused every 1 or 2 month following the manufacturer instructions: Microwave at 800watts during 15min, turn upside down and another 15min.
  17. This camera is not very popular here, but since firm. update v2, it has great new features: Add the AI-based Real-time Tracking AF, and if the Touch Function is set to Tracking AF, you can use Real-time Tracking to track the subject even during manual focus Add the Breathing Compensation for consistent angle of view when focusing Note: Lenses that support the Breathing Compensation feature Add the 16-bit RAW output via HDMI Add the bokeh adjustment mode for easy adjustment while minimizing exposure changes Add new features that support High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) dual production for SR Live SDR Emulated Preview Display on EVF SDR Gain Metadata Recording Add the Picture Cache Recording function, which is also supported when shooting with S&Q Motion Displayed the 4-channel audio level meter on the on-screen display Add the other useful features Note: Refer to the Help Guide for details on all updated functions. Previous Benefits and Improvements Adds the 100P and 120P options to the Slow & Quick Motion frame rate menu when the codec is set to RAW or RAW & XAVC-I Fixes an issue where the EI value is not reflected correctly during playback in Cine EI mode Improves the overall stability of the camera
  18. Does the new server have some effect to the search function? Because the search of "Fx6" found 0 results now. I know it's a camera you don't like very much Andrew, but hope not so much to ban it fron the new server. 😂

  20. The konica hexanon 40mm is really really sharp. I used to use it as an anamorphic taking lens but the "dracula's coffin" bokeh is very distracting. Wish it had more blades!
  21. I don't have gx9 to test, but its really easy and safe to test. You will know that you are in a stealth mode when the screen does not show the recording mode and you generate those corrupted movs.
  22. Hi, we have repaired it successfully long time ago, resulting no real increase of bitrate. So we abandoned the investigations.
  23. I Spanish language I really like the channel of Falco Films. Great content specially those of lighting from the DOP Rita Noriega.
