   * Also had a SmallHD Ultra 7 onboard, only for handheld / tripod.
-Nothing much to say, the picture speaks for itself. No issues and the switch between zoom and prime was efficient.
+Nothing much to say, the picture speaks for itself. No issues and the switch between zoom and prime was efficient. The only notable thing is that I didn't use an Arri RMB-8 bracket for my side rode, but a small personal item that could have been better.

 The worst thing about this setup was the battery plate. The 35 requires a 24-volt power supply: therefore, this plate cannot be used for hot-swapping. Every time the battery needed changing, we had to bring another V98 dual battery pack to connect to the camera. Such a drag... But, we had no choice but to use the micro V98. There we go.

+Now that's digital vintage. A beautiful Red One with a Cooke 20-100. No matebox on the photograph to complete the look, though! I don't remember the brand of the monitor, neither the video transmitter. Unusual stuffs as I recall. I filmed some parts of [[https://www.lucamailhol.com/portfolio/demain-dargile/|Words of Clay]] with this camera! This setup used to shut down at the slightest bump... And I only had a partial fluid head, as you can see.

+For this one, the operator was a photographer who wasn't used to work with video equipment. He wasn't sure between the Ronin or handheld, but the setup needed to be light and easily adaptable. I had to figure something versatile cause I didn't know how it was going to turn out. A unique setup? All at once?
+I had to stay with the Ronin RS4 Pro and fortunately, everything worked out to the nearest centimeter. It was hard to find the sweet spot, though. At the end of the day, it was very practical but we nearly used only the Ronin. My only problem was the V45. The runtime of the whole thing was quite low, and I only had 3 batteries. Other than that, the FX6 is sometime tough to setup but it was fun overall.

-This one was actually quite fun and interesting to make... But I don't have a lot of good pictures of it, obviously
