Hey, this is Scott of Banzai.
In this video going to show you all this organized
gear that I have set up. It's basically all of my camera stuff, video stuff...
Is separated into this little area. So I organize things by category for the most part...
Start with the cameras and lenses in these two little areas right here. Got
the Takumar 50mm f1.4. Some kit lenses...
In here I have tripods...
So this unusual tripod that I use for my hands-on videos at the camera shop.
Got the gimbal.
Haven't used it too much yet, but still pretty
helpful. And anything basically tripod related in this area.
In here we've got any type strap.
Any type of connector that would be used with straps like these
carabiners.
Be a pirate...
Actually picked these up at place called "Five Below" for
a few dollars. And I use this as a precautionary thing where I attach it to
the camera and the strap. So there's a secondary way to make sure it's
connected.
In this one any type of bag, for the most part, that doesn't have a
specific home.
These are microfiber bags, very nice! The section off areas with
the velcro on them.
Go in here...
We've got all of the charging devices. Separated into one area.
So they're quicker to access. I might try to find a better way to deal with this
eventually, but...
Got things like the one for the lights...
One for the Canon cameras...
In this one it's got all the microphone components. All the cables related to
that. Audio cables. Pretty simple stuff. Do have a few recorders. Not necessarily
for video production, but they work well enough.
Just slide down here. We've got reflectors... 5-n-1.
In here my all of my flash stuff.
All the diffusers...
we got the Godox stuff. I don't have the
Nikon gear anymore, but I still have one of the triggers for that.
One of the TT600 flash...
As I mentioned in one of my videos, very nice flash.
Completely manual...
There's only one pin on the bottom, but it does some nice wireless stuff.
In this one all the lighting equipment...
So we've got a few of these LED lights I picked up very cheap, the "Craphy" ones.
In here just simple LED light bulbs that I use for video...
This is all the memory cards...
So 64 gigabyte, 32, USB drives. Any type of USB OTG cables.
Just the cases. And then these things for the micro SD. Have a bunch of
those for the adapters.
Here we've got a lot of USB cables.
basically for charging for
the most part, or when I need an extra cable.
Now I do use UV filters a lot with
all my lenses. I don't really use lens caps. I just to leave a filter on the
lens for the most part.
And I've collected quite a few UV filters over the years.
In this one, any type of cloth. I have a bunch of microfiber cloths...
In this little area that are clean.
And of course... (blower sound)
So with this one, it's pretty interesting. I wanted to get all of my batteries in
one area, but also make sure there's not a huge fire risk. With this bag here it's
apparently rated to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit temperature. Now, there are
these LiPo bags where they put the batteries in there because they're a
little dangerous, I guess. They're super fast discharged and recharge. Basically,
similar concept, it is.. one of the biggest bags I could find. Main goal is just to
add a little layer of protection to the batteries. Where if one of them were to
go off, you know, explode or whatever. I would at least have time. So I have four
of these cases in there. This is actually in this yellow thing, that came with that.
But I was planning on using one of these large ones. It does fit in this bag, but not
as well as I would hope. It's hard to take out. So these smaller ones work
perfectly in this bag here. They all fit. They slide in nicely.
Basically all different type of type of batteries. Camera batteries. Light
batteries. These off-brand action camera batteries, which are the ones I think are
most risk. Because they're cheap off-brand stuff. But haven't had any big
issues with those so far.
Of course, older batteries. That's also a risk. These are old Pentax batteries from
a little camera I have still. And then the Canon original from 2002, or so. Still,
still works. I might try to find a replacement for that eventually. Maybe
make a video on it. Of course, AA batteries, Eneloop
batteries, nice brand.
So you can easily close it up and then it has a Velcro.
I'm gonna try to leave it open, the Velcro, so doesn't tax the Velcro too much
all the time. But figure that out eventually.
Inside this one, similar concept
I have another one of those bags. This is a cheaper
off-brand one. But this one was specifically for those LiPo batteries.
And it looks almost the same as that... That's actually a higher-quality one, the
big one. But in here I've got: Phone battery, and the USB batteries.
Plus the Power Grip!
This has a battery inside
It's the same same concept. Just basically having
one layer of protection to make sure if a battery goes off, explodes or whatever.
It will be this basically flame retardant bag to hopefully cut that fire out.
Down here, this slide-out area, that I have all of the tripods, light stands.
Nice travel light stand, Flashpoint.
Bags up top. I try to not keep hold of too
many bags at one point...
Also, I have some liquids for cleaning. I don't really use
these too much. In this yellow thing I've got: phones, tablets. And down here where
these things in the battery bag are normally supposed to be in...
I have hard drives that I don't use too often.
Actually have my microphone set up over on the side.
And have run a boom microphone up here that can access different areas.
The main goal is to have all of the gear in one area...
Easy to get to. I'll know... Okay,
Tripods, I want a tripod. Go right there. One of the cameras, one of the lights, one
of the flash, memory cards.. whatever. And basically as long as I'm careful to put
things back where they should be... I'll always know where they are. A lot of the
video, especially frustration with making videos frequently is stuff gets mixed
around. Stuff is different areas. And with it all in this one spot I should more
easily make it work. Make it work faster, easier, and a lot less stress trying to
find things I wanted.
Hopefully it spurred your imagination to get your
stuff set up with more efficiency in mind, and makes it easier for you in
every respect.
Anyways, hope you enjoyed this video. If you did, please consider
subscribing. Helps me out a lot. Likes and shares help out a lot as well.
Thanks again!
USB cables... that... oops.
In this one I have all the accessories for that
unjuuu... un.. bleh!
Nice name on it... "Craaaphy".
