@adss70 3 года назад

To viewers with a phone older than the the iPhone 12, please note: I have this setup for the iPhone 11 Pro.... which, as shown by this great vlog, the functionality is great. My frustration comes to the fact that they have changed the case for the iPhone 12 so that I now also have to re-buy the lenses as the mount type has changed. I do not mind buying a new case for each new phone model, as it is IMO expected, but I do find it frustrating that I now will need to replace the ND filter and the Polarising filter that i currently own; they are not cheap. For this reason, I will opt for another brand. Setting aside this aspect, I loved this vlog... informative as always.

@Grapplinginstructionals 3 года назад

Is there another way to shoot in sunlight rather than to use the ND filter or is it a must? I live in Rio, Brazil and the sun here is very intense. This is why I always use an ND filter when shooting outside using my Sony a6400. I ask this because I don't know if I can find the exact product you are promoting in Brazil Best regards, Mike

@billthetraveler51 3 года назад

ND filters are a must have in any digital devices. I have one inexpensive variable that clamps on my iPhone 8. The result was horrible. It took less than a day to find it totally useless. Cheap variables make a dark cross over the image. The lesson is buy cheap, buy twice. Then I decided to begin to use my Lumix bridge camera. I got a really nice wide angle lens filter from Ulanzi. At the same time I bought a 52 mm variable ND from K&F. The filter is great but it is wider on the top and without top threads. I was not able to put it behind my wide angle lens. I had to return it. I bought a set of 52 mm ND filters ( that are top threaded ) and really looking forward to having control over light. I really enjoy your channel. Everybody must remember, “ Buy Cheap-Buy twice.” Thank you for your great posts.

@LMOF01 3 года назад

It's true, the moment Anamorphic lens gets slightly tangled ( something that could be tested priorly by PolarPro...). To solve it, unscrew the tiny screw on the moment lens, adjust it in order to have the lens aligned with the phone, and screw it again. The mount will be tangled but the lens correctly aligned!!!

@SiHorrocks 3 года назад

good shout

@EndelJ 3 года назад

@@SiHorrocks I think the screw is meant to sit in a notch for alignment. When adjusted manually as the tip describes, the screw is not in the notch, and the torque of mounting/removing the lens moves my lens out of alignment every time. The case and grip is too cool to give up on, so I'm going to try and mod it a bit.

To be able to use a stronger variable ND, get the moondog labs "Multi camera filter mount V2" which is 52mm (and with an adapter to 52 to 67mm), and it will cover all the Iphone 12 Pro or Pro Max Lens. that way you'll be able to use your 52 or 67mm filters, applied to all three lens...with your lightChaser Pro!

I use the Lightchaser case with the Moment anamorphic lens. The application of the anamorphic lens is tight at first however I was able to use the lens like normal after using a bit of force while turning the lens into place the first time. I did not have to do any unscrewing or anything besides the basic realignment that comes with the anamorphic lens.

@petercoppard 2 года назад

@@petercoppard sure thing! I used it for filming my family trip to Florida with my iPhone 12 Pro Max and the Blue Moment Anamorphic lens with a variable ND filter on top. I also used it with my DJI RSC 2 gimbal. Worked like a breeze! I would recommend the regular realignment that you have to do with the moment anamorphic lens. Do be aware that initially you will need to use a bit more force than expected to turn the lens into the bayonet holders on the case. I got it to work perfectly however with no problem!

As always, a great detailed and informative review. I toyed with this setup as that handle looks great. But as I already had a variable ND, I opted for the Moment Thin case and Moondog labs adapter. I figured if I change the phone to the 13 or something there are fewer parts to replace, hopefully. And the polar pro case looks a bit bulky for a daily case, or is it OK? And shaken the filter doesn't stop enough light. Hmmm.

I shoot in manual with my equipment 90% of the time following the 180-degree rule but, I certainly see your point by just getting it close. I have a question if I may; With the PolarPro LiteChaser VND's, what's the best way to confirm proper exposure in Filmic Pro other than just eying the screen and hoping I have it? This is somewhat important due to filming on different days and mixing the footage in post. With my DJI Mavic Air drone, I simply watch my EV meter while swapping out my PolarPro ND's and get it as close to 0.0 to -0.5 I never filmed with an iPhone seriously therefore, I would sincerely appreciate your input.

@flipnap2112 3 года назад

using filmic pro, go into the settings for "resolution" and make sure youre using 'Filmic extreme' which is the bit depth. bigger files but less color banding. and lowest ISO will always give you less noise. ISO at 100 with that shutter speed shouldn't be giving you that much noise, especially in a well lit environment. You shouldn't need an ND filter in low light, and outside shouldn't use a problem at those settings. I would double check you codec in the resolution settings first

Ok, thanks for the advice. You mentioned a 6-9 stop range in your video as well, so I'll look for something with that strength.

After looking around at various "clamp on" systems, the LightChaser Pro kit is looking more and more appealing. Unfortunately, they currently only offer a 2-5 stop VND filter for the iPhone 12 pro kit. They announced the LightChaser Pro for iPhone 13 pro is coming out soon. I wonder if they'll release a 6-9 stop VND filter for it? Another option is to go with a regular circular VND filter and some sort of adapter/case setup. I found some suggestions on Richard Lackey's site: www.richardlackey.com/nd-filters-for-iphone-video/. What setup do you currently use out in the field to get 6-9 stops?

I bought the whole set. I use 7 diffrent app's for picture's/video. With 5 of the app's the bluetooth module doesnt work at all and with the other two sometime the bluetooth module triggers the volume button instead of the shutter. I've send it back, wich is a pitty cause the quality of the rest was good.

Thanks for sharing. Strange because you would think a bluetooth shutter button should be a pretty simple thing to create

There are many negative comments on Amazon about this ND Filter from K&F, yet it corresponds to my budget but it makes me doubt ! What is your opinion after having experienced it?

Good morning, I take photos and videos in interiors and exteriors of houses. I do promotional videos for real estate. I use the iphone 14 pro Max. Do you recommend any kind of filter for this kind of work? Thank you very much

@SiHorrocks Год назад

a CPL filter will remove glare and therefore colors can appear richer. An ND filter will reduce shutter speed if you are filming in daylight and want smoother looking video Moment do very good stuff for iPhone: partner.shopmoment.com/7mDbey
