Camera gear that Vantastic uses.

We do all like vides that arent that shaky.

Can you get rid of the shakyness your on your way.. You dont really need that much, the content is the most important.


Vantastic uses
Feiyutech stabilizator (dont know which one) but I think its the Feiyutech Feiyu G5.

They combine their video content with gears like this:
GoPro Hero4 Black

Microfone
Canon 750D
50mm 1.4 lens

Screenshot from this video.
Screenshot from Dustins homepage.


Splash protected, but not waterproof. You cant dive with it. But you can use it when it rains.


Check out the quality of this video with the gimbal and the Feiyutech G5.




Competition for mobiles phones:
Zhiyun Smooth-Q 3-Axis Smartphones (best budget choice)
You can use a GoPro 5 or 6 on these but you need to use big rubble to balance (or something similar). There are also balance plates you can get.

Best mouth mount for you action camera


Easiest you might already have
J-buckle mount

Put some tape on it or put tooth protection on it, see Youtube link further down.






https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYUzhjZtUEU

With this one you can still close your mouth, if you are surfing or whatever and dont want water into your mouth when falling etc. It is mor sturdy than the snorkel types.

Screenshot from: https://www.amazon.com/Pro-Standard-Grill-Mount-2-0/dp/B00KCSPDUW


This is the more expensive Pro Standard Grill Mount - The best Mouth Mount according to Kyle Martin.

Jon Olsson team still using the Panasonic GH5 it seems

This shot if from a video publiced 5 aug 2017 (from the Jon Olsson team). So this is the camera they are using now, at least in this shot. :)


Benji ((Benjamin Ortega) showing himself in the mirror. Looks like the Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5 right?
Mirrorless Micro Four Thirds Digital Camera.

It has an in-built 5-axis imagestabilsator.

It has 2 sd-cards slots. And also bluetooth. It comes with a 20.3MP Digital Live MOS sensor.

Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5, the camerahouse cost about 24 000 SEK (In Sweden). You can find it cheaper in other countries.

------------------  --------------

Update 2017-08-10



Jon tells us they are shooting the vlog with 2 Panasonic GH5.

They have lenses all the way
Biggest: 100-400 mm (which means micro 4/3 will be the equivalent of 800 mm lens instead of a fullframe.)

He tells us that this camera shot with 180 frames per second (autofocus doesnt work then, sound doesnt work), which most Sony and other cameras shoot in 120. (this means more slow motion). And it doesnt crop when you shot slow motion.

Other lens: 85 mm, its a 42.5 (Leica made for the Panasonic) in  micro four thirds. They use this for example when filmen from inside the car. Jon thinks the image stabilisation is great. It outcompetes the RED because of this. "Being able to not have a gimbal is so sick."

And the one the use to film normally with is the 7-14 mm (think it's Leica lens). which is the equivalent of 14- 28mm

So the kind of have 2 cameras ready to go all times.

You have a timelapse function on the GH5.

Downsides to the GH5?

1. Autofocus, they have to constantly push the focus butten when filming. Especially problem when a person is alone to film himself or something.

2. Low light

But generally he thinks that for vlogging its the best camera. And he points out that he is not paid to say this.

Post zoom, they usually starts at 100% and then goes to 115/130 %.

The Search continues, Olympus OMD E-M1 4/3 camera?

Micro four-thirds?


The search for the optimal camera continues.. Just found this article by Chris Corradino. He seems to have change from a full DSLR camera to a mirrorless Olympus OMD E-M1. Fascinating read, check it out:

"The Battle is Over: My Micro 4/3 Camera Outsold my Full-Frame DSLR
 MAR 24, 2017" - Chris Corradino


I have to read up a little more about this, sound interesting. How is the video quality for example?? Whats the specification, frames per second, image stabilazation and so on..

Here's some quotes from Olympuspassion.com

"With my 12-40 and 40-150 I have an effective 24-300 range with a constant aperture of f2.8 in a weather-sealed system." - Chris Corradino, link

"For me, a bigger sensor wasn’t the marker of a great camera. The real a-ha moment was when I tested the full frame Canon 6D against the Olympus OMD EM10. The Olympus image was sharp from corner to corner while the Canon gear produced a very soft photo." - Chris Corradino 
"On the OMD E-M1 I mounted the incredible Olympus 40-150mm f2.8. The OMD E-M10 was paired with the versatile 12-40mm f2.8. For extra reach I also brought the Olympus 1.4x extender. To say I was pleased would be an understatement." - Chris Corradino
