Check out the review of the CELADON Radiant 2XL Pro LED Light. It's just over $100 and it's build quality and light output really surprised me. More info and links in the description below. ▼
Celadon sent me this camera mounted LED light. I must admit I was skeptical at a price point just over $100, and typically these cheaper lights don't output enough light and break easily.
I was surprised with the build quality, the included accessories, and mostly that the light output is fantastic. It has now become my favorite LED light for back lighting my screen.
This is probably the most BASIC video you'll see on the DJI Mavic Mini 2, hence the Basics 101 title. Yep, I'm also a total noob at this, which means I can catch all the stuff other people assume you know when you don't. It shows you how to carefully unpack, setup, perform a test flight, and repack everything so you don't damage your drone. The point is to PRACTICE the procedures until you know them cold, then practice flying until you have the controls and everything else down cold. I'll do another short video soon and show how to replace the propellers, as there IS a way to do it correctly and incorrectly.

You want to buy a good mic, but how do you compare what a good mic vs a bad mic is so you get the best one for your money? That's answered by the basics of microphones. In this video, you'll learn how they work, what the different types of mics are, and we'll demystify the industry lingo. You'll also gain an ability to read polar patterns, frequency charts, understand impedance, and finally be able to compare microphones in your price range and know what you are spending your money on.

Bob from Black Magic Design tells us about the brand new Pocket Cinema Camera 4k, which was the most exciting product unveiled at NAB in my opinion. It feels great in the hands, has a 4/3 size sensor, 13 stops of dynamic range and dual native ISO up to 25,600 making for stunning HDR images and great low light performance. It has a ton of external controls with quick access to essential functions, and a beautiful 5 inch touchscreen making it easy to frame shots, focus accurately and change camera settings. It uses standard SD or CFast cards and records in RAW and ProRes at up to 120 frames per second. It also features a MFT lens mount, built-in microphones, mini XLR input, full sized HDMI, 3D LUT support, Bluetooth, USB-C Expansion Port and much more. I've been looking for my next camera, and if this delivers everything it supposed to, I'll be the first in line. The crazy part? It's $1295!
Check out the free and paid filmmaker training courses here at Basic Filmmaker University here: https://www.bascifilmmakeruniversity.com
Due this September, you can pre-order the Black Magic Design Pocket Cinema 4K camera, which you should do if you do't want to wait in line:

In response to viewer questions, was asked to look for a small motorized slider while at NAB. iFootage makes the best one at the show in my opinion. Although it's not available yet, it's on my BUY list as soon as it hits the streets. https://bit.ly/SubscribeToBasicFilmmaker
#basicfilmmaker #slider #motorized
NOTE: I was paid a million dollars by iFootage to do this interview. Seriously, did you believe that? Let me be clear on this...I was NOT paid by iFootage to do this interview nor do they have any say in my opinions...actually, no one does.
I already reviewed the iFootage tripod (https://youtu.be/VnefJ3XcEKk) and I ended up using their monopod (https://geni.us/xEfDn8) for all my shooting at the show, and it did not disappoint.
When I got to the iFootage booth to check everything out, I saw the new, yet to be released Nano slider, and I couldn't pay attention to anything else.
These guys are engineers, and they decide how to make things based on engineering awesomeness, not how to save a buck by using cheap plastic or less than working technology.
They also are fun, have a sense of humor, and are on my great people list along with Aputure, Deity, and Sound Devices to name a few.
The Nano Slider is completely silent, smooth, and doubles up both directions, with a clean, clear display, and can be powered via L-Ion, Cord, or other high powered batteries for all day shooting.
Watch the video to see all the features, and hopefully, they will kick this out soon, as I want one NOW! :) Suggested price is $499 available in August.
