    I agree that I wish you had more flexibility with the lights. With giant domes, I think they’re probably too close together for different angles. For a small space though, I think this could be great to push things out of the way though! I’ve seen someone put this in a closet and be able to push everything into it and close the doors!

    Your no-feet solution is very cool as the more joints I need to tighten with a Hex wrench, the more fun I'm having. 🤣 Ah, no, the truth is I do like the Swiss Army Knife approach but, like you, I want to shoot in several directions so I'm doing a similar thing with a wheeled stand that I'm promising myself I won't trip over. And I'm using all those parts/arms I have left over from every time Caleb changes his mind and reposts. Now that I think about it, mine looks more like yours before you moved to Victoria! I might actually stick with that (shall we call it a pre-Victorian?) setup for a while and much of its structure I blame you for- er, I mean, thank you for. I feel like a Dunna Minion, one of the happy ones. Thanks for showing this video: I love seeing all the gear developments.

    Its a really cool device but I think its for niche creators that dont really travel a lot and shoot videos every now and then in a small space, i feel like the GearTree is like a functional organizer if that makes any sense, its a way to save space when shooting videos and just neatly tuck it when ur done and do other work

I asked if they can just provide me with a fresh body but they were a little hesitant then later they also said there is a unit comming next week and I can have a look at it first. Also the problem was there was a spo right in the center of the sensor that looked like newton's ring. there was a DP review as well as a redit blog. I showed them that too as a proof that it was a company defect. also it couldnt be seen normally. it only showed up after the camera was warm(3-5 mins of 4k recording from cold)
