  1. Hello, I used Premiere for a while to edit my videos, now I switched to DaVinci Resolve, and I would like to buy a keyboard cover or a physical keyboard. logic keyboards seems to have better colour scheme. there is also editorskeys and kbcovers. What do you suggest?
  2. Hello, I worked in these days with my GH5 and miller air tripod in Valencia. I’m satisfied about this combination. I have just a question: during the flight, I separated head from from legs to let the tripod enter inside the checked bag. I used a manfrotto soft bag for the legs and a padded handkerchief to protect the head. I tried to bend the original padded cordura bag included by Miller to fit inside the checked bag, but is too padded and long and is not easy to bend without damage it... but in this way in Valencia I had to transport the tripod without bag... Do you have any suggestion for a bag that can be easily bended?
  3. That’s why I want to build a steel inox plate to have counterweight when I want to use the 12-35. Maybe I can force myself to use often ninja flame monitor that usually sleep at home. ?
  4. Yes it has only 2 counterbalance, but changing 24-70 with 70-200 it stay in the same position as well. I think these 2 steps works well. The head itself is extremely smooth compared with my other 2 manfrottos heads. Waiting for my gh5 cage to test with penny 12-35 configuration. For now I'm very happy, the carbon fibre leg sticks are good and fast to open and close. They don't have spreader but for what I usually shoot it's ok!
  5. Yes it have 2 counterbalance for less weight and for higher weight. By the way I tried GH5+METABONES+nikkor 70-200 and is ok the counterweight. The biggest problem is only when I want to use this configuration: GH5+12-35 Panasonic, that is only 1kg this setting. I ordered a cage from smallrig with top handle and a baseclamp to give me arca swiss plate over the miller head. They are quoted 560g For the missing 500g or more for that configuration, I'm thinking on DIY a plate metal inox by a blacksmith, smallrig cheese style with some 1/4" screw. And will be perfect for my jobs.
  6. Godox is ok, but you have to use crowns add some modifiers. I prefer in my style and for portability a fresnel and Dedo seems good. Try Arri and Lupo light. In my opinion is better to save money and invest them in less gear but high quality (assistance and poxibikitt to have many modifiers), in fact for flash pictures I usually considere Profoto or Broncolor as a standard.
  7. I understand, but I usually work with different settings: - sometimes I have to use a ninja inferno monitor on tripod, with 24-70 Nikon + metabones + mic zoom h5n and the weight grow up. - sometimes I take videos only with my gh5 and 12-35 Panasonic for practicality
  8. I bought this version, in the optic to improve my gear, and to have a good and smooth tripod system for some years
  9. I have it, but I don't like much light color. I was oriented on dedolight then came-tv for its good modifiers that I could attach in front of the lamp.
  10. Hello, anyone who use this nice light? I would like to buy a Fresnel lens for my photographic and video works
  11. I bought a smallrig cage + top handle and quick release base plate: total 560g my GH5 camera + 12/35 Panasonic is total 1000g total 1560g. I need other 500g ? uff any suggestions?
  12. What about smallrig cage? What model do you suggest to me?
  13. Hello, I recently bought a new tripod system: 3005 Miller Air fluid head + Sol 75 2 stages carbon fibre tripod. The head is designed for 2-5kg Now I would like to use my GH5 + 12-35 and some Nikon lenses adapted with metabones, but I'm experiencing some problems with counterbalance: in position 1 ( that is the lowest possible) the head in kick back tilting from front to center position, that not happens if I forward the camera. Do you think that I have to add some weights? If yes, what kind of weights do you suggest? And eventually where I can add counterweight? If I use for example my 14-24 Nikon 2.4G it seems a bit better.
  14. 900€ max. By the way I'm oriented to Miller Air head with Solo 72 2 stage carbon fibre tripod. (3005 system) I think can fit my style of assignments. Then I will sell my Manfro 502AH, that I don't really like, and maybe also the MCH500AH
  15. No, I can't test in the store these heads unfortunately
  16. 20% long slow pans with a long lens; 50% fast pans following action; 30% static locked off shots;
  17. I want a fluid head, with a tripod usable also in not flat surfaces, and not to heavy to let me transport it in the luggage. But I dint want to buy another product in 2 years, so the product have to be durable with a normal use. For example I am extremely happy with my photographic gitzo tripod, over many Manfrotto bought in the past.
  18. I use gitzo traveller carbon with beautiful lock system. I travel often, and I need a tripod that I can use not only in flat surfaces. By the way these two heads?
  19. Anyway my question is what could be better from these two systems: - Miller Air Carbon Fiber Tripod System solo 75 2, with air fluid head - Sachtler Ace M Mx I used to flight for my jobs often.
  20. uhm in your previous message, you suggested 761AT tripod that is a single tube legs... ?
  21. what about this: https://www.amazon.com/Miller-Carbon-Fiber-Tripod-System/dp/B00GOUUEYW
  22. Do you have middle or ground spreader. It seems that L version is no longer marketed...
