I wanted to share something that I recently posted on
Instagram and that is a little four-page PDF document that shows my current
everyday carry
video and photo carry kit for YouTube and Instagram
So this is everything that I need for a quick and dirty run-and-gun if you will
photos and videos including
microphone microphone extension
Cable a small tripod and my new favorites
Moment lenses now the only thing that's not in here right now
but I guarantee you that it fits is the moment wide-angle lens which is on the camera right now and the
smartphone tripod
adapter which is on my
iPhone right now so I have been using my iPhone quite a bit recently to
Make videos and on my channel I've started using the community tab which is kind of fun
It's a nice way to interact with viewers and subscribers
I'm kind of outside the comments section on videos
And I've posted a poll never done that before but I posted a poll. I'm kind of a loaded question
Honestly, but I was curious what people thought and that is
What is the best camera for YouTube?
And I put a bunch of choices
Including something we all would like and that is an expensive Canon DSLR
Certainly I'd love to have that but I don't
and then I said
IPhone or Android and I think actually that is the correct answer for the poll
Most of us have our iPhones or androids with us all the time, so that's going to be really the camera
That's at the ready to
quickly take a picture or
Shoot a video, so this is my support kit with that sort of philosophy in mind
And if you're interested I did post this
on
Instagram, but I'll also post the link where you can download this in the description box below it has
Some pictures of the gear so this is the current set-up which is a Manfrotto tripod a
clamp to put the iPhone on the tripod a moment case and
Right now I have to moment lenses. I have the macro
Not very good for youtube videos, but I like it because I love taking close-up photos
And this now gives me the capability to take really sharp
close-up photos with an iPhone, and then I think what's really helpful for YouTube videos is the moment
Wide-angle lens that is a nice piece of glass and the first time you
Pull it out of the box and put it on your camera. You'll know what I'm talking about
It is a really solid piece of glass
That's well designed it clips on to the case very nicely in and you really feel like it's a solid
piece of gear and then on the very last page on this PDF
Document if any of this gear is interesting to you or you might want to check it out for yourself
I put all the links so all you have to do is is take a look at the item
And then you can just click on that link and it will take you directly to a site where you can read about it
so currently I use rode microphones and
their Road
Extension cables so I can remote the mic out far away too moment lenses the moment
case and
Manfrotto tripod and the bag that this all fits in which I really like you guys if you've been with me any like the time
Know that kind of a bad guy
This is a large
handy zip pouch from County calm calm
And it's a it's a real nice heavy-duty nylon case, but the nice thing is all this gear easily fits
Inside and I can open it up real quick put it on the ground
It's not going to get dirty and my gear is pretty well protected
There's the moment macro lens the tripod sits down in the bottom, and then I stack everything up on top
Here are the two?
Coils for the microphone and what I use I think these are used in the macrame
Sort of craft environment, but these are flexible plastic
Bobbins no tangled bobbins, but they work perfectly for keeping this stuff
Tangle free in your kit and then when you want to pull it out. It's very simple matter of flipping the
the
lip open and then just reeling off the
cables so that you can use it so pretty handy from that regard and
I've been using these for
Quite a long time and the nice thing now is if I want to pull this microphone out real quick
I know that I can get somebody miked up
Fairly fast and not have any tangles so that's pretty helpful
And it slips down on the inside of this case kind of on the edge
Very easily so I think you'll find this helpful if any of you have any other suggestions or things that you like
