    Are you using the app? I have a 2 model and didn’t even know there was a way to calibrate (it works so well as-is).

    A standard Macbeth color checker is fine.

  • Gary is right. Anything at 40 IRE or below is the danger zone.

    Anything in your price range from Sony, or Panasonic, I’d say.

    I have a 2 model and never even knew there was a way to “calibrate” it. Are you using the app?

    You can get a large roll of black plastic sheet from a home store pretty cheap.

  • I’ve been building rigs for a long time and my approach is to generally start with a bridgeplate or baseplate that takes iris rods and then attach hang grips to the front and a counter weight to the back. Then I add a top handle that attaches at one end to the hot shoe of the camera (in the case of DSLR) and to the rod behind the camera on its right side.

    With a rods based system, you can add whatever accessories you need to easily. I built a battery box dealio that also serves as counterweight and powers an external monitor, transmitter, etc.

    One key thing is to intelligently route your cables and fix them to the rods where it makes sense so they’re not hanging off or loose.

    Take a look at this: https://youtu.be/pyorWarc-4k

    What it looks like to me is you’re tilting too fast for the field of view you have. There’s a general rule in filmmaking called the “7 second rule” which means if you pan through the frame faster than 7 seconds you will get strobing.
