Video

Danke Dir! Wir wissen das sehr zu schätzen… Ganz besonders wenn es mal keine “Leute vom Fach” gucken. Arbeiten immer hart daran etwas zu produzieren das Eireu Zeit wert ist.

No, the big monitor shows the image of the camera… not the Lidar image. The “Picture in Picture” on the transmission monitor is the Lidar image but does not have touch feature. According to DJI R&D that is very hard to implement. The small screen on the hand unit is touch and allows to draw boxes and choose targets. This means that you can’t choose targets in transmission control that are not recognized automatically at all.

@@MediaDivision thank you for the clarification! Lets hope then that 2nd generation of a hand grip will have a bigger screen or better - tap/draw to focus will become available on a monitor itself.

Hard to feal sorry ;-) glad you enjoy and thanks for spending your night with us

To be fair… there are a lot of videos about the subject before mine… I hope we did an do have the best ones. We did these because there was a general Trent towards vintage lenses and these where just the most interesting and accessible. I am very happy that these videos became “household names” in the industry.

As always… thank you so much for your support… next up: we reinterpreted Finchers “The Killer” with real anamorphic lenses.

Our Pleasure EposVox…. Thanks for being around… again!

Hey Josh… thanks a lot… appreciated! Diopters will not work with the Focus pro, as you can’t calibrate lenses accordingly. Maybe you are right and you could do it as a switch feature, but then, the system is not really effective for super close ups. We made it fly with a macro, but only with a lot of purposely chosing wrong installation distances.

Thank you so much for your generosity Josh! It is really kind of you to support our mission. The division Salutes you!

Thanks man!

Thanks a lot… glad you enjoy

not directly from the camera

Yep… just like IMAX

I don’t even have a RS4…

Thanks. I certainly would have preferred another connector… but then you would dislike the price.

Our pleasure Johe! Glad you enjoy so many years later

Normally i am 18-35-50-100 dude but difficult to find 18mm lens except zeiss. So i choose 20mm. But viltrox release great 16mm i think ill try that one

You use whatever suits your taste a d task

Thanks. Well, this system is perfect for a dolly zoom but requires a parfocal zoom (EF or whatever). These days parfocal zooms are quite common and affordable. If you do a speciality shot like a dolly zoom, you can always rent, just like you would a dolly in this case. For dolly zooms to look cool you will need quite a long dolly (3 meters plus) and a correspondingly wide zoom range.

@@MediaDivision In the narrative context the Exact frameing to me is more important than exact focus , an incorrect zoom rate will ruin the illusion in this instance. As far as I Know there is no easy one fits all Automated Solution that what both keep both focus and perspective . As you suggested it would definitely worth the rent zoom Lenses and Equipment fitting the project. I asked about the parafocal lenses out of Curiosity about the limits of the system and the mentioned Expanding Lens database in Future Firmware Versions to come . For Highspeed movements in confined spaces A Creative lightweight Rig Might be required like for example R5C and the and the16-35mm or similar would be a choice. And many full Metal Barrels Cine zooms could exceed the capacity of some medium sized gimbals . Thanks Again For takeing the time out of you day to answering my Nerdy Questions . Can´t wait for the next Video.

@@floskoss6788 watch out zoom episode to get a good feel for dolly zooms... gimbals are not great in that context. Don't overthink it... just try. Plenty parfocal zooms out there.

@@MediaDivision Good Recommendation I already watched the DZO zoom Video at its release as well as the Iron sea and companion videos. The particular shoot I am thinking of , is a car shoot with both the subject and the camera in movement at different speeds . From wideangle to super wideangle . I Will do some testing with the equipment I have to consider what to rent .👍

Commentint is a very good alternative… Thanks a lot Jesus!

It was supposed to be stereo… but in a production like this… shit will happen… and that is not the only turd in this one. Thanks for the feedback man

@@MediaDivision don't worry, it works well with the video

A problem as old as time

Vielen Dank für Deine Großzügigkeit und Unterstützung Flugauge ;-) Wir wissen das sehr zu schätzen! Ich habe das System nie ohne Griff zum Laufen bekommen, es würde auch keinen Sinn machen, da man targets nicht bestimmen kann. Zu viel der Logik des Systems ist im Griff. Grüße aus Hamburg

@@MediaDivision Was würdet ihr sagen, wie viel Kraft hält der Griff denn aus beim halten? Gibt leider keine Angabe über maximal Gewicht 🫣

@@FlyingEyes27 Der Griff ist nicht die Schwachstelle… die Nato-Clamp schon eher. Ich würde dem ganzen deutlich mehr Traglast zutrauen als ich effektiv halten kann. Die geriggte Alexa die Du hier siehst wiegt sicher mehr als eine DMC2 RED, und das war soweit kein Problem

@@MediaDivision Das klingt vielversprechend 😁 Jetzt nur noch hoffen das es bald wieder verfügbar ist. 😅 Ansonsten habt ihr immer so krasse Ideen für Videos die maximal technisch sind, ich würde mal als Ideen für die Zukunft "Infrarot Film/Fotografie", "Telezentrische linsen", und "3D Foto/Video Erstellung" in den Raum werfen. 😊

@@FlyingEyes27 Infarot ist ein so alter hut, aber wir experimentieren mit etwas das das beinhaltet… das ist eine "vielleicht" Episode. Wir müssen immer etwas machen wo wir entsprechend Assets oder Sponsoren haben. Kann nicht wochenlang produzieren ohne zu verdienen. Kinder müssen gefüttert werden.

Yes, it works. You have to remove the Nato rail and the grip shows 0% charge, but it still works

​@@MediaDivisionthank you so much !

Our pleasure… sorry, but I don't have information on that. Can't see it in the DJI store myself.

Thanks … I don't follow? "O" or "A" version? . Aspherical or non Aspherical? There is a direct comparison in here and in the main episode

@@MediaDivision One version has a "O" in the aperture ring, other version has an "A" I think the "A" version is newer but is there any difference optically?

@@sladjj not to my knowledge

✌👌

Thanks Seth… appreciated!

Absolutely… depending on the specifics of the lens you try 80mm and longer

Thanks Tom… always trying to make something worth your time

This is a 6 year old camera system that (unlike Varicam that uses P2) uses simple SD cards that cost next to nothing… just like BGH1

Thnaks a lot man. Always trying to improve and create something tat is worth your time

Oh… thanks a lot Gregory… very much appreciated!! A toast on you and a we salute you of course!!! Thank you for your kindness and for helping the mission.

@@MediaDivision my pleasure

Thanks a lot… well, just like you would with any cam. The Hand grip can be attached to the Nato rail of the Movecam cage on the right side… although, it doesn't fit (Seems like my Movecam rail is slightly to thin. I put a gaff tape on it and it fits. The rest ist the same with all other cams. Our specific LiDAR mount solution is described in detail in this video and the Movecam top handle attachement works perfect for that

BTW… the top handle rail you see on the Alexa in this video IS the Movecam rail included in the Kinefinity Edge/LF MK2 set.

​@@MediaDivision I was indeed referring in particular to the handlegrip. Thanks

Apprécié ! Merci d'avoir accroché !

Thanks… well, we didn’t make an extensive test, but expect it to be already unreliable with what you might consider light haze.

Ok, many thanks for your swift response.

Totally… you can even use the nFD version for half the price

Thanks a lot Andre… appreciate your kindness. Always trying to put something out that is worth your time

with a sensor that is about 1/8 the size of the one emulated in this experiment you can tell where the problem will be… the sensels are pretty small meaning early diffraction due to the nyquest limit. But sure… give me one

Thanks a lot… you are very welcome

Thanks Bo… always aiming to create evergreens

Thanks a lot Alexej

Go for it and share for sure… good luck with the underwater shots!

@@MediaDivision Your underwater short film is a great inspiration as well! Hope to see more from you because you are more than capable.

Thanks man!

Thanks … we invest vastly more time and effort compared to others. Always trying to produce something worth your time. When you change the distance between camera and the object you have to pull focus of course.

Calibrate correctly… set flange wrongly… play a bit

@@MediaDivision I have already sent a video to the DJI support to show how I am calibrating. So there seems to be no error on my side. Distance from Lidar to sensor is also set correctly. And you cannot tweak the flange distance on manually added lenses - only on the lenses that already have a DJI profile on the app. I am really surprised about your results with such close focus distances.

@@florianschmid4109 sorry, I didn't mean flange (and you can set flange manually with the transmission control setup), I mean installation distance… set it wrong to a point where close focus looks correct. You will absolutely get problems on the infinity side, but that is obviously not the point here.
