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.

Slow motion is only 60 fps also.

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.

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 %.
