you think I should do one of those like cheesy walkins you know or you just like
walk in I act like the camera's not here when obviously it is oh hey there how
you guys doing check this out side of this bag got some
top secret products from Etta Crone very exciting stuff at a Crona is sponsoring
this video so giveaways coming up but check this out here it is the Anna Crone
jib one now it doesn't look that special right but with it we can actually do
some really cool unique camera moves so let's set it up real quick so we got a
3/8 inch thread right here so we're just gonna mount it out and this is gonna
rotate in to secure down we got a bubble level right there so we're gonna Center
that straight out we can loosen this up and this just extends out just like that
and you could really you know extend it out as much as you I kind of make it
short you can make it long this is fully extended out so we're gonna start off
simple by just throwing this head on here camera goes up here now what we're
gonna do is try to balance this thing out and depending on what kind of
payload you have up here and how far it's extended out it's all gonna kind of
shift so if I unlock this notice that the camera side is a little bit heavier
so we're gonna need a counterweight throw this in here so this counterweight
is too heavy so now it's heavy on this side so what I need to do is take this
counterweight slide it in a little bit let's say right around there perfect now
everything is balanced I'm gonna tighten that in and check this out so now I got
to power it up I threw in some batteries if you're familiar with any edit crone
stuff like their sliders all of it is controlled by the app so if I swing up
look at that it moves up and it swings down now this is just the start of what
this thing can do but let's try to get a test shot real quick now one of the
things I really like about jib moves is that you can kind of use the whole
entire ground as your parallax what do I mean by that well sliders usually you
want to have some foreground elements some mid and then some faraway elements
so that when you move side to side you kind of see things shifting around it
kind of gives that cinematic move right but let's say you're out in the middle
of nowhere where there's nothing around the jib moves vertically so essentially
your ground is all your parallax but what I was particularly impressed with
was that I can loosen this up and actually turn it on its side so now it's
horizontal so it can move side-to-side almost kind of like a slider look at
that so let's try the same shot with this are we skipping that is
embarrassing so in a lot of cases that means this can replace a slider in a way
right because you could go side to side and that looks pretty good advantage to
a slider though is that it does move in a perfectly straight line opposed to
this which is going around in a circle so it does a little bit of an arc you
know what I mean now I notice that if you're shooting out straight and you're
moving side to side then I don't really notice that arc too much usually but I
notice it more if you're trying to do a move into something so instead of going
straight into it you kind of go like yeah but me personally I would rather
carry around this thing that a slider because you have more options on the
types of moves you can do so we've seen it go straight up and down horizontal
now I'm gonna put it 45 degree to its side because now check it out it's going
diagonal now look at that this is my favorite because it's just so unique
some people just walk past us and they were like whoa you could pull that with
your phone this is a head turner for sure it was like a robot spider yeah
it's pretty sweet you know what's interesting is I feel like I feel more
comfortable talk to the camera when I'm holding the
camera like sometimes when you're holding the camera I almost feel like
I'm supposed to like be more professional I don't know because I feel
like I'm being filmed the boss said just like I don't like interview whenever I
give the camera to Sam I'm like constantly messing up I'm like I try to
say a lot and I mess up I think I just get kind of nervous you make me nervous
Sam sorry is my passion good so using the head plus by itself really
awesome but when you pair it with this this is the head plus it is magic and
here's some of the shots I've gotten with this setup
see
now motion control can be a little bit intimidating right but fear not it's not
that hard so we have our head plus here we just got to mount it onto the jib got
a camera mounted on here and I'm not gonna go too in depth because I already
made a video about this head plus but when paired with the jib it is gonna
make some differences cuz now look at this it's so much heavier this head plus
not super light so here's where we add in some extra counterbalance now these
are a kilogram each and they just kind of stack into each other so this is two
extra kilograms of weight here this just stacks on top and now we should be a
little bit closer to balance here so actually that's perfect yeah look at
that money now this c500 will be our model here now
one of the things that's kind of intimidating about motion control is
like how do you program it and do all that but I'm actually really happy with
the app itself so when I turn on the app basically just hit smart pairings what
that basically does is the app scans for all the Edit chrome products around it
and it detected the head and the jib one automatically then gives me like a
custom interface to operate them we have our swing on the right here as you can
see and since it also detected the head now it gives me this pan and tilt so I
can also control this camera as well here's my personal favorite way of
programming this so I can literally just grab the camera turn it in any direction
as well as the jib let's say I want it to start up here right something like
that start off with the top view and I'm just
gonna press and hold pose number one now this is gonna save this exact position
so then let's find our second pose something like this for pose number two
right so I just hold it there press and hold pose number two save so
now that we have those two points all I have to do is press pose 1 and look at
this camera move so perfectly fluid and honestly most the time I just need two
poses but you have six slots here so I don't know help
let's give me a third spot right here let's do this for spot number three
alright boom and the only real things that you really need to change here is
the speed and also your ease so the speed is obvious how fast you want the
camera to move the ease is here how smooth you want it to move in and out of
its butt so for example something like an
interview I wanted to start moving and stop very slowly so there's no jarring
but if I know that I'm only going to be using the shot during motion then I can
just give it the hard ends that way it just accelerates as fast as possible
when we get started well hello there and then it just kind of stops you see that
now if you're forgetful of what each pose is see how there's like a camera in
the box of pose one I can tap that and the camera on the phone turns up and I
can essentially just take my phone camera and just snap this angle right
there nice now let's snap a picture of pose number two camera is automatically
gonna go there so I could just put my phone camera just right up to where this
lens is pose number two and then pose number three of course it's the
uncomfortably close shot of my face yeah look at that perfect now I'll tap post
one and post two at the same time so boom and now it's essentially just gonna
loop between one and two over and over so this is perfect for an interview
situation if you want your be cam to always be moving and it just looks like
so professional like this is pretty fast right here but let's see what it looks
like if I just drop it all the way to like you know 25% now when you're
looking at something like this you might be like oh my god it's moving so slow
snore but look at this footage it's so gentle and elegant it just adds that
subtle touch that really adds the next level of production value to your
footage right now there's several other ways to use this app you know you got a
time lapse mode target mode stop motion but key pose by far my favorite cuz it's
just so dang simple right you just literally grab the camera put it where
you want it okay pose number four move it up here pose number five literally
takes three seconds to program in a super high quality looking shot I used
to shoot a lot more tabletop product stuff and man but I have killed to have
this thing then just look at that I'm not even trying
and there's also increments between your angle - it's not like there's vertical
horizontal and diagonal there's stops in between so this is do one where I barely
go up a little bit and this time I'm gonna
mount this inverted perfect for when you're trying to get the camera just
like right up against the ground oh this was gonna be juicy I can feel it
all right here we go oMG I'm pretty sure you could point this
combination to anything and it's gonna look fucking fantastic this is starting
to look like an ad for Canon now which it isn't okay just to switched it up a
little bit coming through and there see I don't need to hear it okay little kid
and filmed blah blah now I believe all cameras are equally beautiful it's too
easy too easy now I did kind of want to test out the weight capacity of this
thing and I am pushing it a little bit past its limit this is a C 500 mark - it
is not a lightweight camera and the thing is I have four kilograms of
counterweights back here so stretched out fully it wasn't able to balance it
but by shortening this by a couple inches able to handle it perfectly so
recommended setup wait for this jib is five kilograms or eleven pounds and with
this head plus with the camera is fourteen pounds so we're over that
weight limit but if you ever do scooch over there you make a few minor
adjustments and you can make it work I think we've gotten so used to seeing
sliders that when we see something new by doing a little vertical movement it
feels like something much higher production value you know kind of like
if we were using what do you call those dollies that have the hydraulic arm a
Fischer dolly or a chapman Dahlia those ones that are crazy it feels more like
we're using one of those time for giveaway details
for a chance to win one of these awesome jib ones easy-peasy all you gotta do is
follow edit Krone on instagram and drop a comment down below good luck to y'all
you read some comments Sam you oughta get in here read some obviously funny
how I keep watching stuff that account for it must be the person who presents
it hey that's good night and why is your crotch in my face so let's do a
comfortable hey stop it this guy I'm so rocking to see 100 mark
2 as my daily driver that is an awesome camera what I like about the c100 mark -
I mean it's only HD I expect wise it's very underwhelming it's only like what
35 megabits per second or it still looks good that's what it is exactly yeah that
camera is like proof that you don't need a lot of specs to get really good images
because it looks better than most cameras out there it's got that good
sensor you got that good dynamic range good colors light yeah the lowlights
nuts on it huh they look like a water spider-man like
this I don't think I think you just look insane how many times does gene say that
looks pretty good I guess I don't know I guess a that Aloha that looks pretty
good
in this way I say okay if I go it's pretty good that's like whatever that
looks pretty good that's like oh yeah I'm excited about it
welcome to another episode of I have more money than you yeah I mean I don't
like to brag about how much money I have but if you think that's impressive she
look at my credit card debt have you blown away anyways that's it for today's
video thanks again at Arco for sponsoring this video and I'll see you
