Best Budget step-up ring for Cine-Modding your vintage lenses

2025-03-30T15:27:00.003+02:00

You own multiple vintage lenses, but undoubtedly you have come across the issue that they don’t have the same filter thread and buying different sizes of filters can be quite expensive.

So it's better to buy a single large filter and just use step up rings. There are many kinds of step up rings, but my preferred choice is 80mm O.D. Rings, the O.D. stands for outer diameter of the ring. And these 80mm O.D. rings can be found on Amazon for 18 bucks, links in the description below.

Each of these lenses of mine are fitted with an 80mm O.D. ring and it has 3 major benefits: The step up ring is a bit extended, so it protects the front of your lens from bumping into things. It not only unifies each lens to have the same 77mm filter thread but also the same 80mm outer diameter as normal step up rings don’t have a uniform outer diameter.

And you can get these 80mm metal caps to keep you lens safe as these caps are just a snug fit, they hold on to the step up rings quite well and don't pop off that easily compared to your standard clip on lens caps.

Though there are also O.D. rings with larger outer diameters like 95mm and 114mm, which are the more standard sizes for matte boxes to clamp on. But will also make your lenses a lot wider and take up a lot more space in your lens case. While the 80 mm outer diameter step up rings still keep the lenses compact and allow you to fit much more lenses in one case.

To directly fit a matte box onto the 80 mm O.D. rings, I have 3D printed a matte box clamp ring that fits into the 95mm clamp of my Smallrig mini matte box and now I am able to quickly
move my matte box from one lens to the other without needing to screw on the standard clamp rings from Smallrig. Making my work a lot easier during lens swaps.

Next Panasonic Cinema Camera in 2024?

2024-05-23T13:05:00.002+02:00

Recently we’ve been notified Panasonic was granted a patent for a Boxy cam design that included a flippy screen. If this becomes a real product Panasonic will be the 1st compact box camera with a built- in flip monitor.

Let's look at the design and see what we might expect with this new camera. Though the design is very similar to the Panasonic BGH1 and BS1H, the major difference is on the back of the camera. They removed the large battery plate and now have a screen that is noticeably able to flip out. A lot of filmmakers have been requesting a flip out screen on a boxy camera for a while and it seems that Panasonic will be the 1st to make this wish come true.

But now the question is how it will be powered, well it seems the hand grip will be one of the methods to power the camera with a small camera battery. Likely the same Panasonic Mirrorless battery DMW-BLK22.

And people who would be rigging the camera would most likely have a DC power port somewhere on the camera like on the BS1H, to attach to a v-mount plate.

The design also seems to lack a lot of buttons compared to the BS1h, however it could be that this patent just isn’t showing everything as it is also not showing many ports. And a lot of things might be hiding behind the flip screen.

What we do know with Panasonic Mirrorless cameras is that we can access and change a lot of settings via the touchscreen, so a lot of buttons might not be needed.

On the side of the camera there is a USB-C port which will have multiple functions, not only to connect the grip to allow you to trigger record, but the USB-C is also for recording to external SSD drives or connecting a USB-C microphone onto the camera.

On the back we can see two BNC ports and either a network port or HDMI, but most likely a NDI port for livestream use and camera control from a distance.

The sensor size from this camera looks like it's going to be Full Frame, but I do hope they are going to make this to have IBIS as the biggest reason the BGH1 and BS1H failed is missing the sensor stabilization while you could buy the Photo camera version which does have IBIS to get very stable walking shots, while BGH1 would needed to put on a gimbal to get steady shots.

I always liked the Panasonic GH line as they always listened to the users and market bringing out upgrades everyone wanted from them and was for a long time front runner of higher FPS and Resolutions and making a camera with minor things to complain about. But since the release of Full Frame and also BGH1 and BS1H , the cameras have been in odd positions where they are missing important features.

But the Panasonic S5iix has put them back on the right road and hopefully this boxy camera has the features of the Panasonic S5iix but also includes the very stable IBIS.

So who is this camera for, while the original BGH1 and BS1H were actually more designed for live streaming or broadcast use, that is why they didn’t include IBIS, but with the design of the grip, this camera also be more likely used for handheld filming use and have a higher change we would see 1st boxy Cinema camera that includes Ibis also.

Baofeng F22 walkie talkie 2 way radio review

2024-05-09T11:57:00.001+02:00

This is the Baofeng F22 walkie talkie. Honestly the best bang for buck walkie talkie you can purchase for on film set use.

It cost just 20 bucks for one pair, so I bought two pairs which is enough for the camera team.

What really attracted me the most with this F22 is that you can use professional headsets with a kenwood plug and it recharges via USB-C.

It even has a built-in torch when filming at dark locations. But the main thing is the communication of the walkie talkie itself.

The distance the f22 should be able to communicate is around 1 to 1.5km. On set the max I have ever measured was 400 meters away in a dense forest talking to the crew who went to the car park, which honestly much more than you can get with most intercom systems, however we haven’t had any situations where we needed to talk further away than that.

The Baofeng F22 is available in PMR and FRS version, which is dependable where in the world you are using the walkie talkie, you either need the PMR for Europe or FRS version in the US.

One very important thing to do with the F22 is to set the CTCSS or DCS privacy code, which is the 2nd number on the screen. It is to set an analog or digital code which prevents the walkie talkie to sound out signals of other walkie talkies that might be on the same channel but not the same code, but also prevent them from hearing them unless they use the very same channel and privacy code, that is why I set it to a very high number that is unlikely to be used.

The sound quality over the speaker isn’t bad, but it sounds a lot better when using a good headset.

The battery that comes with the F22 lasts about 18 hours, however you can use some high capacity AA batteries that last even longer. But I do suggest removing the batteries at the end of the day or after recharging, as there is a noticeable battery drain even when the F22 is turned off. Also the charging of the F22 batteries are inside of the walkie talkie and it isn’t a fast charger, but because it is a USB-C it is quite easy to charge it on set via a power bank or anything else.

But it is nice it can use AA batteries, as if you are days away and can’t recharge, it's a nice option to just swap the batteries.

So why I got black and orange versions of the F22. Obviously working with professionals who I can keep the walkie on all the time and collect from them at end of the day. But Director and AD are often a bit more annoying that they would just randomly leave them somewhere on set, making it harder to find, the orange just stands out more than having to find a black walkie on a dark film set.

Conclusion, for the price and what it achieves it is a no-brainer, it works great and really makes it easy to communicate on a film set and it's also a lot cheaper than most intercom systems.

Zhiyun Fiveray M20c

2024-05-06T13:17:00.002+02:00

This is the Zhiyun Fiveray M20c, a very bright 20 watt tiny LED panel. So let's directly go into the brightness test. So I put the M20 1 meter away from my phone so we get the LUX at 1 meter. First output at 100% and going through all major kelvin values.

100% CCT

2500k - 1240 lux
3200k - 1275 lux
4300k - 1431 lux
5500k - 1510 lux
6500k - 1550 lux
7000k - 1562 lux
8000k - 1590 lux
9000k - 1590 lux
10000k - 1590 lux

It’s quite bright for such a tiny light. And it competes with the Astera Hydra in brightness. But it's being such a small light at 100% we can hear its fan cooling this light, but also go through the battery much faster. As you only get 40 minutes of use at full power. However I don’t think this is a light that should be used at 100% but more at 50% or lower.

50% CCT

2500k - 725 lux
3200k - 739 lux
4300k - 795 lux
5500k - 850 lux
6500k - 890 lux
7000k - 905 lux
8000k - 895 lux
9000k - 890 lux
10000k - 885 lux

Even at half power it is still much brighter than the Aputure MC pro at 100% output, while being almost half the price of the MC Pro. Also tested the light at 1% it is interesting its still quite bright at the lowest setting.

1% CCT

2500k - 84 lux
3200k - 88 lux
4300k - 92 lux
5500k - 100 lux
6500k - 109 lux
7000k - 112 lux
8000k - 103 lux
9000k - 102 lux
10000k - 102 lux

Accessory wise we have a grid and bardoors, the barndoors kinda work, but the soft light spreads still leaks everywhere. The best way to prevent the spread is to use a grid, which makes the light more directional, but you also lose some of the light. The light loss is actually not very extreme as it uses a very thin grid.

100% with grid

2500k - 1083 lux
3200k - 1112 lux
4300k - 1255 lux
5500k - 1318 lux
6500k - 1355 lux
7000k - 1364 lux
8000k - 1394 lux
9000k - 1390 lux
10000k - 1385 lux

50% with grid

2500k - 638 lux
3200k - 646 lux
4300k - 697 lux
5500k - 745 lux
6500k - 777 lux
7000k - 792 lux
8000k - 783 lux
9000k - 779 lux
10000k - 777 lux

There is also HSI and RGB mode Noticeable the Blue LED is much bright than the Red and green.

HSI 100%

120 - 692 lux
240 - 926 lux
360 - 622 lux

RGB 100%

Red - 625 lux
Green - 693 lux
Blue 100% - 922 lux

Fiveray M20c got a lot of effects which is very nice, when you need them: Sos, paparazzi, candle, bad bulb, tv, lightning, strobe, cct loop, cct flash, cct pulse, police car, disco, fireworks, hue loop, hue flash and hue pulse. There is also a special Music effect, which is the light reacting to sound and flashes. So if you want the light to react to a beat of someone clapping.

The light is inside a kinda cage, but when remove, there is no mounting point on the light itself so the kinda plastic cage thing is needed to mount it anywhere. There is a magnet on the cage thing which is nice and strong, there are cold doe mounts so you can stack multiple of these.

On a shoot we notice it's kinda impossible to get a purple color out of this light as it either jumps to magenta or becomes blue. However realistically we rarely use purple, it was just an off music video that needed a purple look.

Now using the light with the ZY Vega app, if you can’t connect, you just need to reset the bluetooth on the light which can be done in the menu. the app works with setting groups and also changing the lights. It has good kelvin values to choose from and many ways to alter the color of the light to match a color.

The con of the apps is there is no access to all the built in effects and possibly have a future upgrade that would include it. Overall, even with my old Samsung S9 phone, I can still control the light over bluetooth. The other con is that it seems to miss a certain range of colors in the Hue as it is noticeable it jumps from one color to the other and does not have a gradual change. This might be a software issue where the light is not set up right as it seems to stay on a certain color for a long time before switching to a different color. Hopefully Zhiyun will fix the issues in a coming firmware.

Best size clapperboards

2024-04-29T20:36:00.001+02:00

Hey filmmakers, did you know there are more than one size of clapperboard? Think many filmmakers often know to purchase the standard size clapperboard, but do you know which size is the best to use at which occasion?

Let's start with the smallest size, the Nano clapperboard. The use case for this is filming extreme close ups. Because often these close up shots take a lot of time to frame correctly.

But also certain macro lenses or the use of diopters makes it harder to focus far away, making it unable to focus on a large clapperboard. For this you can use the nano clapperboard or an insert slate, as often these shots don’t show anybody talking and can be filmed as an MOS with an insert slate, but when audio of a close up handling is needed then you do need a Nano clapperboard.

Then we have the small clapperboard, though people often react that these are cute size clapperboards, this size is actually the most ideal size for indoor use. As the size of the small clapperboard is around the size of a human head, it is ideal for a lot of the close up shots of a person. But also usable in confined spaces and in vehicles, where a normal size clapperboard is just far too big and there is no space to hold the clapperboard behind the actor. Because the clapperboard is small, you can easily hold it quite close to the camera without needing to walk far to get out of the shot.

Then we have the normal size clapperboard. The use case for these are definitely medium to wide angle shots. For outdoor and when wide angle shots are done. So when you see the shotlist has a lot of wide shots, the standard clapperboard is more ideal for it.

However there are also gigantic clapperboards. These have a very special use case, more often when multiple cameras are used to film an outdoor action section, where the clapperboard needs to be visible for multiple cameras to see the slate. However these often are special orders for big blockbuster movies and not something a 2nd AC need to have in their kit.

Tilta Nucleus Nano II 3d Print Mod

2024-04-28T12:39:00.002+02:00

So you bought a Tilta Nucleus Nano II but having trouble nailing your focus? Annoyed by accidentally swiping the screen and suddenly can’t focus? Missing that marker ring?

Here is my solution, a 3D printed Nano II mod! It's an easy install. And you can add swappable marker rings.

I am Chung Dha, I am a Focus Puller from the Netherlands and I have been using the Nano II for several months now and have used this setup on multiple films and commercial projects. The mod makes the Nano II into a budget ARRI or C-Motion remote.

As the mod makes the knob of the Nano II as big as the Arri and Cmotion remotes. Also allows you to use the marker rings from Arri and c-motion on the Nano II.

The larger size not only gives you a better hold, but also makes it easier to do more precise focussing. It raises your hand and palm away from the touchscreen to avoid accidentally swiping the touch screen.

There is also a focus indicator if you use the Nano II in a Focus station setup. I suggest getting the NiceyRig Nato 15mm rod clamp which I use on my Focus station.

If you want to get this mod, there is a link to Cult3d where you can purchase the STL files and if you don’t have access to a 3d printer. You can print it via Craftcloud3d where you can find a company to print for you and ship the item to your doorsteps.

Synco Xtalk X5 intercom system review

2024-04-17T18:03:00.001+02:00

This is an honest review of the Synco Xtalk. The Synco Xtalk from outside looks like a competitor to the Hollyland Solidcom c1 but at a third of the price. However it is a you get what you paid for situation with this product. It is an ok product, but it is in its own low budget class and is not competing with Eartec or Hollyland which are on a whole different price range.

The Synco Xtalk X5 comes in a pretty large case, which looks a lot like an Aputure light case.

On the lid you get multiple double chargers instead of a single large charger, which isn’t a major problem ,just annoying to find so many usb plugs, however all of the chargers are USB Micro and take 2.5 hours to recharge when fully empty. While I would have preferred something like the Hollyland which has one large charger via USB-C and charges much faster.

Battery Life of the Synco Xtalk is 20 hours which is a lot more than compared to Eartec or Solidcom. And charging after one day of use is close to 1 hour to recharge. But I would have preferred a USB-C charger as most of usb cables I carry are USB-C.

Now to the headsets, the design is quite nice and it has a good fitting and can be used on either left or right side. There is a proper on and off switch to prevent accidentally turning it off. Buttons on the side to change volume, change master unit and turn denoiser on or off. Also we have an audio port for monitoring audio, which can be useful for the director to monitor the sound but also give instructions to the crew, without needing two headsets.

The range is about 350 meters or diameter of 700 meters around the master headset. But honestly rarely need such range and even rare occasions even be 100 meters away from set.

The audio quality is really dependable on how loud the person is talking into the XTALk, the louder the better it sounds, but when the person talks softly or even whispers the built- in denoiser will make the audio sound very digital. Though you can turn off the denoiser, but result in hearing a lot more noise.

One big drawback of the Synco Xtalk is there is a 0.4 seconds delay on the audio, which might not be a lot of delay, but it is a noticeable delay, when you are standing close to the person talking. Though in normal use cases this won’t be a major issue as instructions given over the intercom aren’t always for an instant action. However if you can communicate with a gaffer to move a light until you say stop, he might stop too late. Also because of the delay, it is not recommended for live broadcast use to instruct the camera operators. But general use to instruct people to grab something or move something or asking questions about something over the intercom are no problems.

Conclusion the Xtalk X5 is an ok product that is usable on a film set, especially if you don’t have the budget for the more expensive intercoms. However if you need a zero delay intercom, it is more advisable to opt for the more expensive systems.

Budget Pro Focus Puller's Focus Station

2024-04-16T19:35:00.004+02:00

After a year of using my previous focus station setup, I have upgraded to a setup where I can work more on a professional level, but still on a relatively low budget. Most important was to spend my money well on things which would make a major difference.

You might think upgrading the screen to SmallHD be more important or even to get an even more professional follow focus.

The most important upgrade is a proper video transmitter system which is the Teradek bolt 300. Though it is an older video transmitter, it has zero delay and also uncompressed 422 1080p video signal which gave me a higher quality image to focus with. I was able to get a nice set with 3 receivers for 1500 euro, so I could also easily set up a pro video village. Other cheaper transmitters have delay and are 8 bit compressed signals, which can produce harder to focus signals.

However I also did switch to a better monitor, from Feelworld to Portkeys HS7Tii and made the Feelworld LUT7S the Directors Monitor instead. Though the Portkeys HS7Tii lacks touchscreen and is less bright than the Feelworld, the image of the screen is sharper, plus focus assist or peaking is very similar to the one from SmallHD, which is a whole lot better than the feelworld. Also I like the custom button I have set to zoom in 125% of the image which is the sweet spot to zoom in that does not soften the image, but give me a closer look on where to focus too. Though this monitor was released for a short time, there also aren’t any cages available for it.

Also I swapped out the entire rigging and it is now mostly from Nitze with just one part from Niceyrig which I used on my previous setup. This setup is now much sturdier and can handle the weight more than my previous grip setup. Powering the setup I rigged Nitze Power Plate onto an Accsoon NPF adapter so the plate is directly connected to the monitor. I power my setup with a 190 watt hour battery, which lasts the entire day filming and powers everything on the focus station even the Follow focus.

Now to the important item, the Follow focus. Under here is a Tilta Nucleus Nano II, I pretty much instantly modded it so I can add the same marker rings from Arri WCU4 and C-motion onto my Nano II. Also it allows my hand to move away from the touchscreen to avoid accidentally changing the pages, but the bigger size gives me a better feeling for more accurate focussing. But also with the marker ring I can accurately know where my focus points are. And I make use of Dylan Stoel marker stickers which allows me to quickly set a mark but also easily move them around. Which is a lot easier than using a white board marker. Also since the recent firmware upgrade, I have been able to also trigger cinema cameras like Arri Alexa 35 and also Sony FX6 via lanc. However Bluetooth triggering blackmagic cameras are a bit of hit and miss, but mostly miss as the signal seems quite weak.

But most importantly it can trigger the Arri cameras which make a lot of difference if you get to work on professional film sets. As 1st AC or Focus puller becomes the person to press the record button instead of the DP or camera operator. The Nano II honestly is not a bad Follow focus and especially the price of 300 bucks.

Fallen Angels wide angle lens

2023-12-20T21:29:00.007+01:00

Most noticeable about Wong Kar Wai Fallen Angels 1995 is its use of wide angle lenses. In this video I am going to show you which wide angle lens you can purchase to get the same look.

But first we need to find out which camera was used, to know which sensor the lens should cover. Luckily back 1995 there weren’t that many Cinema cameras and its known Wong Kar Wai used an Arriflex BL4 from 1988 till 1997, before switching to Panaflex in 2000. Arriflex BL4 super 35mm film camera, so we mainly need a lens that covers super35 or an APSC sensor.

Now to the focal length we need. Online discussion a lot have speculated it is the 9.8mm T2.3 Kinoptik Century Tegea with a wide angle adapter to make it a 6.8mm. But there isn’t any footage of the 6.8mm lens to compare, but also the lack of behind the scenes makes it hard to find out.

Checking the film credits, you can find Salon Films credited for the rental equipment. But checking out their rental list. I could not find the 6.8mm attachment. Nor do other rental houses in Hong Kong have this specialty item.

Instead of just speculating, why not just do a lens test so check out which field of view looks the closest.

So the specifications we need are:

A Super 35mm lens
Focal length in the range of 6.8mm to 9.8mm
A fast aperture of t2.3 or faster, as because the movie was shot with a wide angle, most lighting were practical and required a fast lens to get enough light to expose the film.
The lens also either needs to have a very close focus or enable to use a diopter to focus close.

So the two lenses I found that fit this requirement is the Laowa 7.5mm f2, though it’s not a 6.8mm but there just isn’t a lot of ultra wide affordable lenses out there. Though this is a m4/3 version and kinda covers S35 enough for this test.

The 2nd lens is the Meike 10mm T2.2 which I think would get you the closest to the Fallen Angels look as I have another theory that it is not the Tegea but a totally different lens. But first let’s test out the lenses and replicate some shots.

From the test Meike 10mm T2.2 has a much more similar look to the original film then the wider 7.5mm as the 7.5mm just has a much wider field of view with a lot more perspective distortions. While 10mm is wide enough to get the wide angle field of view, yet also keep the perspective distortions limited.

The reason why I think the Meike 10mm t2.2 is the closest to the lens, is because the next Wong Kar Wai movie Happy Together, there is a behind the scenes shot with a camera shown, which we can see the Zeiss Standard Speed 10mm t2.1 is mounted, but the movie also has several deleted scenes where we can see the wide angle lens used.

As both the Zeiss 10mm t2.1 and Meike 10mm t2.2 are quite similar, both have same focal length of 10mm, the T stop is quite similar and both don’t have any barrel distortions. As I do have to note not every wide angle shot was shot with the Zeiss 10mm T2.1 , but mostly all the wide angle that don’t have any barrel distortions it is most likely the Zeiss 10mm t2.1 was used.

However for the shots that has a pronounced barrel distortion. I have an idea which lens it could be, but I am waiting on few lens parts that still need to arrive and make a part 2 which will talk about the 2nd wide angle lens.

Best Youtube aspect ratio in 2020

2020-10-02T08:16:00.008+02:00

Lately I have been uploading in different aspect ratios on Youtube, to test out which aspect ratio you can upload without loosing the end screen feature. As this feature is quite important to keep viewers watching videos from your own channel. But also find an aspect ratio that would compliment better viewing experience on mobile phones. #youtube #aspectratio #chungdha This video is filmed with Sony A7rii - https://amzn.to/3coGXKA Samyang 18mm f2.8 - https://amzn.to/32XnAoR Uurig - https://amzn.to/32XnFsF Lavalier go - https://amzn.to/3kHUos6 Manfrotto Compact action - https://amzn.to/2Ex4qwM Yongnuo YN608 - https://amzn.to/32U8GQ8 Yongnuo YN360 - https://amzn.to/3iY3W1F Check out my Adobe Premiere Pro Effects tutorials here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAdjMWVKvc3B2SqrDQB-r5EMxyrn29h6z Edited with Adobe Premiere Pro - http://goo.gl/k2EagF If you appreciate what I do, you can support me by donating any amount here on paypal: http://paypal.me/ChungDha 🎭 Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/chungdha 🌐 Website: http://www.chungdha.nl 📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chungdha/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/chungdha For any Questions Please Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/chungdhagroup Business Inquiries, Sponsors & Collaboration email contact@chungdha.com Chung Dha © 2020 Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong

Tiny $25 Microphone worth it? Frugal Friday

2020-02-28T06:18:00.000+01:00

Welcome to another Frugal Friday , today we are outside testing a tiny frugal $25, which is the Saramonic SR-XM1 https://amzn.to/32skqrg . A very compact mic that would easily fit into your pocket, there is also a mobile version the Saramonic Mini Smartmic https://amzn.to/32u4jte .

If the audio quality is good, this would be an ideal microphone for Youtubers and vloggers, especially being so small and light to travel with. Yet also the setup look less like you can filming a commercial video and get away with filming at much more locations.

This video we are putting it to the test agains the Boya By-MM1 https://amzn.to/37ZaR47 which in a previous video we already tested the audio being better than the Rode VideoMicro. https://youtu.be/TWhOkOrsNCE

This video was filmed with:
Panasonic G7 - https://amzn.to/33DsT9T
Laowa 7.5mm f2 - https://amzn.to/34Ca6x1
Manfrotto Compact Action - https://amzn.to/2XYY66s
