The Focus Pro's battery life was measured at 25°C for about 2.5 hours, and I feel like I'll be using it for longer than that.

@thesavagefilmmaker 6 дней назад

Waaaay longer. And I’m not sure that measurement is accurate. It hasn’t lasted that long for me in my tests.

Hey man, Just passing by to say that I'm so happy you're still around. I started following you a few years ago, but for some reason, your videos rarely show up in my feed. I'm not a video maker-pure photography and tech topics are my thing-but I would like to try creating a RU-vid channel one day. The way you create your content is amazing, and it breaks my heart to see you not yet over 100K followers while other boring channels skyrocket. I hope you stay steady and consistent because you truly deserve proper recognition. The videos you make that I love the most are those that are provocative, ignite deep thinking or criticism, and have the perfect balance of humor. I really wish you to continue despite the slow progress, and like many others, I'll be very proud to see your channel reach where it should be. Thanks for your patience-many would have given up already-and thank you for sharing these videos that always bring something fresh to the audience.

@thesavagefilmmaker 19 дней назад

Thanks brother, this is the nicest thing anybody has said to me on RU-vid! My consistency is my biggest battle, coz when you’re in the middle of making movies there’s no time to also make RU-vid. But I take this comment to heart ❤️ 🫡🙏

@kenh6096 19 дней назад

Had similar issue. Thought I had not seen any fresh contend for a while, only to click on and realise I had missed a load of videos. If you click on the bell icon and change the notification setting to "all" it should solve the issue. I never really understood why the youtubes algorithm appears to not recommend Guys content. It's way more informative and far far farrrrr better produced than most of the garbage that tends to be recommended.

@thesavagefilmmaker 18 дней назад

Appreciate it mate!

@RootCinemas 18 дней назад

DJI's LiDAR focus is a fantastic and invaluable tool for filmmakers, offering precise and efficient focusing capabilities that elevate the quality of their work. However, despite its impressive features, the product has been frustratingly difficult to purchase. I've been waiting for three months without any success. It's perplexing why DJI would announce such an innovative product without ensuring its availability to eager customers.

@thesavagefilmmaker 18 дней назад

I don't think they were quite ready for the demand, I was very fortunate to get my pre-order in when I did.

@IanConnel 18 дней назад

Well now I want a DJI Focus Pro. They'd better pay you!

@thesavagefilmmaker 18 дней назад

Haha, I wish!

@qfoil 18 дней назад

Thanks for an interesting and personal take on the system, not just a "review" per se. You've mentioned a dolly shot with Focus Pro - I think it's one of those things that are reeeeally hard to do manually, especially without a dedicated focus puller. And even with. You can usually pull a person running towards/from the camera in a few takes, etc, if the camera is not moving. But add another variable with a dolly or a gimbal in there and it becomes incredibly hard! The point is, in a situation where a good autofocus truly helps - it helps A LOT.

@thesavagefilmmaker 16 дней назад

Dude I've ruined so many dolly shots missing focus at the end of the dolly or lost focus too obviously in the middle of the dolly. Not with this guy!

@Ishai1 19 дней назад

I've been using their Lidar for a while now, just with the gimbal (well, once you set it up with the gimbal you can get autofocus without it as well). It's very useful for my run and gun setups. This new package makes everything simpler.

@thesavagefilmmaker 18 дней назад

Great for me, as I rarely use a gimbal, but love this new Lidar tech.

@bryanbarajasBB 19 дней назад

@TuttiBlueFilms 15 дней назад

Can you mount the focus pro grip as a second handle for any gimbal?

@thesavagefilmmaker 15 дней назад

If you have something you can attach a nato clamp to, the focus pro grip attaches via nato.

@dmgfilmproductionandphotog1567 8 дней назад

can you change lenses as fast as without lidar? if not its better to use only a mirrorless camera with pdaf+AF lenses.

@thesavagefilmmaker 6 дней назад

No it takes longer, but the whole point is AF lens don’t provide you the same look and quality that cinema lenses do. Therefore using AF lenses will always give you the same generic digital look. Sometimes you get a better result by taking your time.

@joaquinperalba1624 19 дней назад

I tried the pdmovie lidar smart 3 (also lidar based system) with a bit of oil based haze (thinner) and it worked …. Not sure how much haze you meant when you said “liberal” amounts of haze …. 😊. I work a lot with thin haze so the system would be useless to me if it cannot focus with haze. Thanks.

@thesavagefilmmaker 19 дней назад

Recent shoot, with just general haze in the air between subject and camera it would not focus correctly. But I have not done more extensive testing.

@kenh6096 19 дней назад

Interesting. As it's lidar am I correct in thinking it would still track regardless of lighting conditions?

@thesavagefilmmaker 19 дней назад

It so far has done well in low light.

@colingregg 19 дней назад

I have a Sigma fp. Beautiful camera and wonderful colour science, but notoriously poor at any auto focus. Do you know whether this system can work with zoom lenses, or only primes? I can’t seem to get an answer. Maybe you have some thoughts.

@thesavagefilmmaker 18 дней назад

If you put cinegears on your zoom lenses, then they should work. But lenses with hard stops at infinity are better suited for it.

@colingregg 17 дней назад

⁠Thanks. Good advice

@MisAnkic 7 дней назад

Can I put my autofocus lens in MF mode and use it with LIDAR or it must be manual lens?

@thesavagefilmmaker 6 дней назад

If you put cinema gears on your auto focus lens then theoretically yes you could.

There’s no point doing a video about this. There’s no product to buy. Nobody has it. DGI has no idea when they’re going to put it in production. Just a bunch of hype about something that you can’t even purchase.

@thesavagefilmmaker 15 дней назад

So how did I purchase one? Clearly they do exist, DJI doesn't sponsor me. However why talk about something that is currently out of stock....because it will come back in stock. It's not sold out indefinitely, in the mean time those interested can consider its features and decide if it's worth purchasing.... when it's back in stock.... which it will be. Weird criticism.
