Hi, thanks for stopping by my channel! I'm Ray and I work full-time in commercial TV production as a DP and Camera Operator. I've been working in production for a decade, but my career took leaps and bounds after I decided to go back to school to pursue a degree. I got my B.A. in TV and Film and have been working for a commercial production company ever since. I've had the opportunity to work for tons of big brands and celebrities, athletes, musicians, and corporations. I'm here on RUclips just as another Creative outlet. I have fun making videos and sharing what I know, so here is the www.RayValencia.com RUclips channel. An outlet for filmmaking gear, tips, and tutorials.

Amazinggggggg video ❤
To bad its a POS product that wont work and wont trigger your camera to start
Ive bought two and a smallrig top handle with a trigger and all have failed after one month.
I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
Thank you very much! I highly appreciate you.
Thanks for your great video.
Very helpful, thanks!!
Can u reccoment the 2in1 nd filter from K&F?
👍
Great video! Would be great if you could also review the Ulanzi Video Fast Video Tripod. It seems to have many of the same features of this SCG T8 but at a much cheaper price point. Adjustable legs, 6+6 counterbalance options, etc. Would love to know what you think of that versus the SCG. And there's also the Smallrig Free Blazer and Pineta Peak which you've probably heard about to.
ND filter + Black mist?
Fantastic video with really helpful examples. You did a great job of illustrating everything you were discussing.
did i hear wired? so i can use my Canon 6d with this
Thanx Dude!
Great video. Subscribed.
Thanks!!
My all rgb work with controller. The controller out 3pin. The 3 pin connect to converter directly ?
Great video, explained and demonstrated very well. I am interested in experimenting with the black mist effect in landscape/nature still photography, particularly close-ups of flowers, fall leaves, running water, etc. I often use deeper shadows and vignetting, so it seems the black mist by preserving shadows will complement those types of images.
i just watched one of your videos about the Sony FX3 from 2 years ago. i have a question about it. I just sent you an email and i would love to hear back from you to see if you have a quick answer about what i am doing wrong. (hooking up 2 sets of dji wireless mics)
Checking my email now! I’ll get the answer right to you. Thanks!!
@@RayValencia you’re a legend! Lmk if you want photos of the setup if you need a more clear picture of what I’m trying to accomplish
Just emailed you the link to the exact cable you need: geni.us/Comica_XLRsplitter
BEWARE: DO NOY BUY THIS MIC. I just did and now find you cannot get replacement cables. Aputure Deity do not answer messages about this mic. It is no longer even present on their website. Their customer service is truly terrible they do not care. If you lose a cable this mic is of no use as the cables are proprietary.
I’m sorry you’re dealing with that. I didn’t realize they were proprietary cables because I saw some third party 3.5mm to USB-C audio cables on Amazon? I wonder if they’d work? And you are right about that; I don’t see it listed on their website anymore. I’m gonna reach out to the rep I talk to at Deity (super nice ppl by the way) and see why there are no more “mirrorless style” 3.5mm jack mics anymore. I only see the professional series, and the lavalier mics on their website (July 2024).
@@RayValencia I have bought cables off Amazon and they don't work unfortunately.
@@RayValencia Did they ever get back to you? I want to buy the Deity V Mic D4 locally. It is no longer on there website. It seems odd doesn't it? Because let's face it, if it was truly good and people were buying them up, they wouldn't silently "remove it" from there site. The whole situation seems weird. A lot of the D4 links from other RUclipsrs direct you to some D4 DUO or D4 mini.
Great video!
Great rig, Ray! Thanks for your insights. Best wishes from Mexico City.
Thanks!! My father is from Mexico City! -Best, Ray
Apparently the same receiver works with their wireless lavalier mic TX. You just have to turn off the mic and it automatically connects to the lav
Does anyone use these kinds of filters to reduce moire effect on camera bodies that don't have an optical low pass filter?
Great setup. Have you tried powering BOTH the Atomos and the camera with the SmallRig V mount battery?
What's the difference between this Fill method and the right-click Audio channels method?
god you have no idea what you are doing
Just so you know…I just shot a $7M movie called “The Florida Wild”… look for it next summer in theaters, my dear hater bruh.
does it work with batteries or cable?
Hey, great video man.. question, are you able to record 4k60? or do I just need faster cables? I saw you were doing 4k 24
Good job
Why does the camera charge regardless of whether USB power supply is set to on or off?
I spent 30 minutes looking for a good review for this mic because I just bought it. Yours is by far the best!! Thanks for the detailed review of the VM30 🙏🏾
I highly appreciate you stopping by to watch this
Thanks for review Ray. I've been looking for good and in reasonable price. This one perfectly match to my needs so.. I'm waiting for delivery :)
You kinda read my mind, always picking gear I'm interested in! Wonderful review. Wondering if it'll work with the FX3 handle mount for Smallrig on this one for the A7SIII. Now you need to buy Falcam F50 QR for your manfrotto stuff.
That’s a good question. Wish I had it to test it out myself. Definitely a unique and cool looking cage. One good thing about recently picking up the a7IV is that there are already Version 2 and V3 cages from pretty much every manufacturer at this point. Lots to choose from.
I need to plug the sata cable or work without ?
Puedes hace un test de ruido?
Small rig is extremely over priced . simply never buying anything small rig
All camera gear is overpriced, lol! I have so much SmallRig on all my cameras. I don’t just use SmallRig though. I also use Tilta, Kondor Blue, Shape, and 8Sinn, but all those brands usually cost even more. This Rhino cage isn’t a basic cage though… it’s a re-design/upgrade to carbon fiber from the original heavier aluminum cages.
Those mist filters look like my old lens with fungus. 😂
Really needed this video bro, ppreciate you greatly
Why does not a SINGLE review say HOW LONG IT LASTS!?!?!?!???
Shocking results in the long term. Here’s how long it lasts in my long term review: Mini V-Mount Battery BATTLE! ZGCine vs Moman vs AndyCine vs Core SWX ruclips.net/video/Ey8AVtYaqEE/видео.html
Can you adjust how high the gradual grey filter sits in the frame or is ot just in the middle by default? Does this clamp directly onto lenses with 95mm outer diameter?
Damn good so useful information :) I spent 3 hours fo that information. Great help love you 😘
Wow, this video explained so much for me. I am a total newb to all of this stuff and have been watching all of these vids saying, "you have to get this filter, it's essential!" but not explaining why. You explained "why" in a very thorough and easy to understand way. Thank you.
I must be doing something really wrong...I went out and did the two channel recording using one deity mic....it is almost as if my recording is from two different events...
Black magic filter?
I've considered picking up another similar lens for my FX30, the sony E PZ 18-110mm. Do you know that lens?
Looks like a great lens. Awesome vid Ray.
What lens do u used on vlog?
Why do you have to beat all the material to a pulp? Have you ever invested out of your own pocket?
anyone use this for their SM7B?
Glad I stumbled on this video. Was about to spend more on the Tiffen, but looks like the K&F is the way to go. Also, was going for the 1/8, but I actually want the 1/4 now. Thank you for the video!
You still work at HSN?
After 6 years at HSN, I left and went freelance 2 years ago!
Wind test wasn't OK. I'm thinking of buying this (June 7th 2024), but you needed to make the wind noise loud enough, not hard to do, without the foam cover and wind muff on firstly. ie an oscillating fan at high speed should be more obvious as the baseline comparison of what foam and wind muff (dead cat) should reduce. Then put on the foam and wind muff, that should have completely cut out the booming wind sound, unless the wind muff is totally useless, which is what I seem to feel is the case from two other 'wind test' reviews of this mic. Maybe don't put on the foam noise reducer, just the wind muff only. Then switch on 75hz and then 150hz cut. If with all the wind noise reductions on you can hear any wind booming then it's a fail, would probably even fail blowing on it with the breath even. All reviewers seem not to be testing it at the limit, ie if it's to be used as an onboard run&gun shotgun mic on camcorder it's coming over to me as a failure in terms of wind noise. If you want a wireless indoor mic, but aren't concerned about *ELIMINATING* wind noise then it does sound fine.
