00:00:07,319 --> 00:00:13,839
welcome to my unboxing and first look at my new tripod so this is a manf frto

2
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:18,480
something or other can't remember what it is but we'll open it up got really

3
00:00:15,719 --> 00:00:22,880
good reviews on the uh on the online store that I bought it from so I'm

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:28,720
hoping that it's that it's awesome it's also rated for the for the weight of my

5
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:34,760
new camera which is the Sony fs700 which is right over there so this will be part

6
00:00:31,119 --> 00:00:39,399
of the whole new setup for lonus Tech

7
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:41,440
tips that I extremely excited to bring

8
00:00:39,399 --> 00:00:44,879
to you now if you guys have been following my channel for a long time

9
00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:50,840
then you'll probably remember back when I unboxed my Canon XA 10 camera when we

10
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:56,800
uh when we first upgraded from our ancient Sony like tape camera that we

11
00:00:54,320 --> 00:01:01,399
were using before that and what you'll probably also remember is that I don't

12
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:07,040
really know anything about about you know AV Equipment at all so me unboxing

13
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:12,439
these puts me a little bit out of my element but it's okay because guys like

14
00:01:09,479 --> 00:01:16,759
Diesel and cameraman will will help me and uh actually better yet they won't

15
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:21,840
help me at all they'll just not make it so I don't have to deal with it cuz I

16
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:25,840
can handle like ssds and computer hardware but when I get into this kind

17
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:31,159
of stuff I just get confused all right so it comes with a carrying sack which

18
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:36,280
is nice okay it's like a kid at a candy store

19
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:39,520
but they're like diabetic so they can eat the candy but it's like still

20
00:01:37,759 --> 00:01:44,880
exciting cuz you know it's a candy store and there's lights and sound and you

21
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:49,320
know exciting stuff going on okay so there's that so this is a kit it comes

22
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:53,439
with woo it comes with a fluid head as well as the tripod unit itself I think

23
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:57,560
it's rated for like 12 lb or something like that and our camera is only about

24
00:01:55,320 --> 00:02:03,840
about 8 lbs maybe I'm thinking kilograms I don't know man okay it's just kind of

25
00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:07,159
there's probably some kind of feed on the bottom here that are making it hard

26
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:12,560
for me to get it in and out of the bag there we go all right so there's our

27
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:15,560
there's our baller new tripod so let's

28
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,760
start with unlocking it which is done

29
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:22,720
like this it's got little locks on here to make it so it doesn't just randomly

30
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:28,760
come apart pin in that one for some reason okay it's got little rubber feed

31
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,760
on here see that see that texture and then you can okay these are something I

32
00:02:31,519 --> 00:02:40,560
don't know what these are for go ahead and sort of take this apart

33
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:46,720
somehow whoa and then everything's coming apart now

34
00:02:44,239 --> 00:02:50,200
awesome this seems to be some kind of like

35
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:54,879
stabilization dad that involves this being actually

36
00:02:53,319 --> 00:02:59,840
quite heavy and difficult to maneuver when I'm holding it up like

37
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:05,239
this all right there we go okay so this stance is pretty wide let's go ahead and

38
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:09,200
put it right there and then once we've oh yeah we're good we're filming uh see

39
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:14,599
you tomorrow okay so we uncp

40
00:03:11,959 --> 00:03:19,959
these and then I guess it'll extend for us oh there we go there we go that's

41
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:23,879
better once we uncp those we can get a better idea what kind of height we're

42
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,959
going to see with this thing cuz that's how tripods are rated right they're

43
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:31,680
rated like in terms of height more height is better actually I don't know

44
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:36,720
can't remember giving me a look right now like I said I don't know anything

45
00:03:33,879 --> 00:03:41,599
about this stuff I just know what the uh what the video folks say we need in

46
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,920
order to make like more better videos

47
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:49,040
and then I try and uh try and make that happen Okay so there's more extension

48
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:54,159
here oh okay wow this thing's going to get pretty big indeed before we're done

49
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:58,720
with it here U going to have to get this box out of our way look it's like

50
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:05,400
growing it's like a Transformer or something actually it's tripod but

51
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:11,239
uh okay so it's got about a six foot stance on the thing and it's uh yeah

52
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,280
about five yeah must be about 5T tall so

53
00:04:11,239 --> 00:04:17,359
it comes with as I mentioned I've got a kit so it comes with the fluid

54
00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:21,160
head I forget what the part number is but it's probably some some part number

55
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:27,600
or other here I can find out for you guys imagine more something

56
00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:31,639
something something something yep doesn't doesn't doesn't say anything oh

57
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:38,320
yeah yeah mvh502a and then the uh so that's the

58
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:43,520
pro video head cool and then the tripod

59
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:45,280
itself is the 545 or the 546b or

60
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:51,160
something like that so basically to mount it on here all we got to do is

61
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:54,039
slide this bad boy in so we already took

62
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:57,919
the uh the mounting piece out and put it on the camera so you can hear it clip

63
00:04:55,759 --> 00:05:02,199
into place there and then you lock it in place using this guy right here and then

64
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:05,960
it in theory doesn't go anywhere also comes with one other accessory and

65
00:05:03,639 --> 00:05:10,039
that's uh this piece right here so we're just going to you can mount it on either

66
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:13,120
side if you're a lefty then uh I'm sorry and uh you can but you can still use

67
00:05:12,039 --> 00:05:16,360
this product I'm just kidding I have nothing

68
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:22,000
against left-handed people they're wonderful you know most of the ones I

69
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:24,759
met so there we go this oh this probably

70
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:29,319
has to uh oh no it looks like this just freely moves oh maybe it just isn't

71
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:33,520
quite tight enough yet yeah there we go so once you've tightened it in place to

72
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:36,960
or tightened it locked it in place this way then you keep going a little bit

73
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:43,199
further and the handle itself locks into place you can adjust the fluidity the

74
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:45,560
drag system here as well as here so you

75
00:05:43,199 --> 00:05:50,240
can either set lots of resistance or very little resistance and then there's

76
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:57,800
a level right here to help you make sure that uh well your camera tripod mount

77
00:05:53,880 --> 00:06:01,000
system is level so there we have it we

78
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:03,240
now have our new camera mounted to our

79
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,240
new

80
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,360
tripod
