Another thing I would have done differently when filming Tyler’s second angle, get him to look to the left side of the cameras - so he would be looking “through” the frame. That was my original intention when setting up the shot, but the cameras had to be moved up against his bikes, and I couldn’t sit on that side for the interview. So we just rolled with it! He was talking about the bike behind him, so it makes sense to have it in the frame. The composition is a little weird, if I had more help or a bigger budget, I would have taken more time with the framing there. This was one shot of a spec project, so we were working with the gear and time we had

Hey Keith nice video man! I asked a question on the fx6 DJI mic splitter video. I was interested in hearing if you had an answer

[@keith-knittel]

Awesome - just responded. Doing a test later and will let you know!

[@engineerfpv]

arent the nighwalkers for s35 sensors? do you have clear image zoom to fill the space?

[@engineerfpv]

2:00 just saw that you are explaining it after ahahah. my bad

[@keith-knittel]

Yes, they are - have these lenses and want to use them a little more before I make a review. Wanted to see how they would work on full frame. They work well as long as you zoom into 1.2 with clear image zoom! Still testing them out!

👌

What V-Mount plate is that?

[@keith-knittel]

Smallrig V-mount plates. I have a videos going over more detail here - depending on which one youre looking at:
FX6: czcams.com/video/IIKJU3HDshU/video.html
or this is the FX30: czcams.com/video/UeIiqSYD2cM/video.html

[@andreaceccarelli6674]

pity that the microphone has not been hidden.

[@keith-knittel]

Agree. I need a sound guy! If I have more people to help, typically boom out a microphone overhead and avoid the lavs altogether
