Video

Hope it helps! Also I’d recommend using red loctite on the screw so you don’t have to do it again like I did a few months after this video.

You’re welcome! Glad you found it helpful!

An off camera producer could, of course. Since it’s remote controlled, whoever has the controller can control the speed and scrolling as well as the text size.

@@jackofmanytrades My apologies I was not clear. Can producer view text and read along with talent?

Oh that’s a good question, I’m going to say no unless you airplay the iPad display to another display while you’re using it.

So the major thing to keep in mind is. The MXF method is NOT RAW. It allows non-RAW clips to behave as RAW. The other thing is that you must use Cine EI. If you don’t, you’ll not be able to convert the clips to the MXF files. Hopefully this clears things up a bit for you.

I really am so glad you enjoyed the device! That’s good to hear. It’s definitely a purpose built device.

I’m not really sure. I don’t have those panel lights. I will say that they seem similar so I wouldn’t necessarily think that they would be dramatically different.

Anytime bro, I’m glad the video helped you!

They put the temporary charge on your account for the full amount but they’ll remove that charge once they get the drone you send back. Sometimes they might even remove it once you put your drone in the mail.

I mean a backpack that can hold a lot of equipment is the entire purpose of getting a bag like this. A professional tripod will never fit in a bag so I’m not exactly sure what you mean here. If you’re thinking of a travel tripod, you can fit one in the side pocket with a strap. It has a rain cover in the front pocket. I’m also pretty sure I showed off the expansion of the front part where gimbals go.

No. But they’re identical other than that the premium pen has the back eraser I believe.

So if you import the sheets as PDF documents, you can absolutely mark them up all you want. They’ll also save to the device automatically so no need to worry about losing them. It should work pretty well for the purposes you’ve described.

Only you can make that call. I’d say, the blade can definitely do both. But it’s a gaming laptop at the end of the day with really high spec hardware so battery life will suffer. You also have to account for the power brick everywhere you go. Since it’s not USB C, you cannot just leave it at home to take a more compact option.

Thanks for your very thoughtfully crafted comment! I am glad you enjoyed the video! I make content on lots of different topics but unfortunately haven’t been as active recently because of work. But I appreciate the sub!

Yeah, it’s really exciting that PCOM isn’t the only new feature coming into the QC! I think people will really enjoy this update. I’m also really excited to see more plugins make their way to QC.

@@jackofmanytrades most definitely 🫵🏻

lol be careful with OPM.

I personally know several people cross-shopping these two. I agree, they are two very different cameras in many ways. But they are both cameras that can be used as hybrids.

Yes! I’ve done that before a few times!

Good question, that depends on a lot of factors. If you have everything on maximum, it can last probably between 8 and 10 mins. I have never had to use it continuously for longer than a minute though. So I’m not sure.

That’s really unfortunate, I haven’t had any issue like that with these. But I can say, they’re a very budget brand where quality is definitely not at the core

What would you recommend for RGB light for background scenes? Thanks

@elaroussinoureddine9801 the Amaran 300 C or 150 C. I have a video on the 300 C on the channel.

@@jackofmanytrades thank you

Yeah, it’s definitely I but unfortunate how limited the scribe can be when compared to traditional tablets. It’s certainly an e-reader first and foremost. Glad you were able to save your money for a device that’ll hopefully fit your workflow better!

Yes, it’s definitely exciting that plugins are finally making their way to QC. A bit unfortunate it took about 4 years after release to happen. But at least it’s actually happening!

@@jackofmanytrades I completely agree.

I don’t think so. The Scribe still gets updates and I think they continue to sell pretty well. I don’t believe they are going away anytime soon.

Good question, I’ve thought about this a bit. Unfortunately, I do not have one. So I can’t exactly say for sure. What I can say is you probably would have to remove the legs of the C stand and pack the arms and legs in separate pieces.

@@jackofmanytrades Thank you! Great review.

@MrFraiche you’re welcome! And thank you! Glad you liked the video!

Can confirm C-Stands do not fit in the 988 😂

@MrFraiche bummer. But good to know

Ah, well that’s good at least it’ll have that feature like the steam deck does for activating the gyro for people who like that sort of thing.

I see, so you can put content onto the kindle over USB C. But the fact that it can connect to the internet and email docs from a connected kindle account and the fact that it can’t have antivirus or other types of software installed would lead me to say, probably not. Unfortunately in cases such as those, firms tend to prefer keeping documents on highly secure devices.

@@jackofmanytrades Firms use Microsoft Intunes to manage devices and protect data on phones and tabs. I don't know if there is a version for Kindle. Consulting firms and research based firms really need a solution for this.

Good question, I think they at one time, sold center caps for GAN cubes that the robot could grip. I think I had seen somewhere that if you used them that you could have it scramble a normal cube.

@@jackofmanytrades thanks man :)

@ShadrikEaston anytime bro!

I have been able to overpower the sun in some cases with a 300c. I agree. The 150c may be too low power. Probably a 600d would be what most would need for that purpose.

Hey, that’s great to hear! My use case is pretty similar. Though I definitely make lots of use of the handwritten notes in kindle books 😄 I agree though, the feeling of the device is superb and I generally just put it in a padded backpack for travel.

Basically, yes. If there’s any difference, it’s imperceptible.

Yeah, one would think that even adding a cardboard backing would be pretty standard and simple to do. But unfortunately, not so.

You definitely do make a good point. The A9iii is definitely a lower MP sensor so it’s not in the same league in that regard. But yeah, the RIV and RIII can be good options for those looking to save. Just unfortunately, they don’t have the new software and some of the niceties of the new bodies like the RV.

Agreed, I’m definitely more a fan of the XBox style layout with the offset analog sticks.

Definitely gotta stick with what you like and what works!

Definitely not much to write home about. But definitely looking forward to seeing what the AI stuff is like when it releases later this year.

@@jackofmanytrades Yes, me too🎆

Agreed, I think if valve actually created a dedicated controller with the same controls as the steam deck with buttons for big picture mode and steam overlay, that would be a pretty solid controller that would sell very well.

I’d definitely agree with you there. I feel like it’s probably going to make its way to other markets. Hopefully it isn’t a huge timeline. But you’re absolutely right, you can always use alternative services to get products from the Japanese market shipped elsewhere. Sounds like a good idea, that’s true, the lack of rumble is definitely something that is a bit of a downer. Especially for the $50 price tag.

It’s an e ink tablet that’s reading focused. If you can write on it is definitely a tablet.

@@mzmel1 no it's not. a tablet has the capability of downloading apps and doing a lot more than just reading and sketching. BOOX makes eink tablets, but Kindle only makes ereaders.

Glad to hear you’re enjoying your kindle! I feel the same about mine. Definitely does what it does well! It’s definitely not waterproof though. So I’d avoid jumping in the pool lol

I agree with you there, I mainly just use the Xbox Elite Series 2. I think it would be really nice if Valve redesigned a steam controller for the US market that had a similar design to the elite with 4 paddles on the back. Controllers are definitely interesting. Everyone has their own preferences for layout and complexity.

@@jackofmanytrades When my original Xbox 360 USB controller died, I bought a Steam Controller for tuppence. And that thing was just the hottest of garbage.

I never got into the old Steam controller. Honestly though if valve just make a controller with the same layout as the Steam Deck, it’d be amazing.

I agree with you there, I’m definitely more a fan of 4 back buttons. Definitely hoping to see Valve release a true successor to the steam controller for the US market soon.

To be fair, I see the trackpads being a nightmare for the design and ergonomics, the best concept design I've seen has quite literally just been a Steam Deck with the screen section deleted. Technically they could copy Sony there, but the Dual Shock 4 and Dual Sense's touchpad is much less precise than the touchpads on the Deck. As for the placement of L/R4 and L/R5, I do agree that they should all be on the back but I get why L/R5 is on the front here. The controller is based on a pair of wired controllers for the Switch and XBOX that have audio passthrough with 3 buttons for audio controls under the d-pad and right stick. They simply changed the two outer buttons to be remappable in Steam (With the center one being deleted) instead of figuring out a comfortable way to have 4 on the back.

Thanks! Glad you found it useful!

Glad you found the video helpful! So the tough thing about portrait mode is that you’re pushing the center of gravity up rather high and since the iPhone is so light other than that, balancing will be a bit of a challenge. I think in general, you’d probably want to get something to counterbalance that can be attached to the baseplate. Since the iPhone is not what these things were made for. It’s always a bit of a challenge.

@@jackofmanytrades noted sir! I have plan to add some handle bar beside phone cage, I've observation and I think to balance next cage probably helping weight in balance. Well, i have plan to buy dji om6 or zhiyun smooth, but caps load it's only 300gr something. With filter cage and ssd its overload 😅

@yankarda144 yeah, absolutely. Unfortunately, no one really makes gimbals with strong enough motors specifically for smartphones. I think it’s a bit unfortunate for sure. But thankfully, gimbals made for cameras have enough power to handle smartphones in general. Albeit with some need to improvise as far as counterbalancing.
