Gura Gear Kiboko 30L+ Camera Backpack Gustafilms 2025-01-25 | This is the largest backpack that @gura.gear makes. 🎒Even though the Kiboko 30L+ Camera Backpack is designed specifically for telephoto lenses, it can also be used to carry just about anything.The first thing you’ll notice is the unique Butterfly style duel front access design, which allows you to access the contents of your bag quickly and without exposing everything to the elements.In addition to having a premium water-resistant X-Pac® VX-21 shell to protect your gear from the elements, it’s also one of the lightest materials I’ve seen in a camera backpack.I packed this backpack with as much gear as I could possibly use and I STILL had space for a few small things!

SIRUI SVS75 Rapid Height Adjustment Tripod: Is This The Last Tripod Youll Ever Need to Buy? Gustafilms 2025-01-21 | Could this be the last tripod you'll ever need as a filmmaker? The SIRUI SVS75 Rapid Tripod claims to have a payload of up to 55lbs, which leaves me plenty of room to grow as a cinematographer. Which is the main reason for needing to upgrade my current tripod. The one step height adjustment feature is probably the biggest selling point of this tripod, but there are several other features that make this tripod special.What tripod are you rocking with these days?

Falcam LUMIX S5 II Cage Build Gustafilms 2024-03-26 | I can now say with confidence that @falcam_official makes some of the slickest, well designed camera cages and accessories on the market, and here’s why…📷🔥As soon as you receive your Falcam camera accessories it’s clear that they have design and functionality in mind. Each piece is shipped in a nice protective case, which lets you know whatever’s inside is top notch quality. 👌I don’t know what the side and top handles are made of, but they sure look cool and feel amazing in the hand. It almost feels like carbon fiber wood. Perhaps it’s some sort of alien technology?? 👽🤔The company also makes sure to make their gear as seamless as possible when rigging your camera for horizontal shooting to vertical shooting with quick release connections all over the cage.And speaking of cages, I really like how Falcam chose to design the LUMIX S5 II cage in 2 pieces. This ensures a super tight fit with no play, making it feel like the cage is welded to the camera. 💪As far as camera cages go, I own a lot, but @falcam_official is probably my favorite so far for its unique style and stable functionality. What’s your favorite camera cage?? Leave a comment below!✌🏻🎬#cameracage #cameragear #camerarig #cameraaccessories #filmmakinggear #cinegear #falcam #lumixs5ii #contentcreationtips #quickrelease

HOW TO MAKE 24P LOOK LIKE 120P SLOW MOTION Gustafilms 2021-06-02 | If you’re in a pinch and need to fake slow motion that was shot in 24p, then this is how to do it.The “Retime and Scaling” tool in DaVinci Resolve is AMAZING when it comes to being able to slow down footage that wasn’t necessarily meant to be slow motion. Keep in mind that it helps to shoot with a high shutter speed for a cleaner effect. Shot on Sony A7S III and DJI Ronin
SONY FX9 vs FS7 Gustafilms 2021-05-27 | Quick and dirty comparison between the Sony PXW-FX9 and the ever trusty PXW-FX9.Both cameras had matching settings with the exception to the white balance. The FX9 has significantly more green tones than the FS7 so I chose to adjust the WB to 5000K and left the FS7’s recommended white balance at 5500K.The same Rec709 utility LUT was applied to both samples in DaVinci Resolve. The last example is with color space transform applied to the FS7 and switched to Alexa LOG-C. I felt like making that simple color space adjustment in post got the FS7 closer to looking like the FX9.Lens used: Sony 28-135mm f/4 G OSS Follow me on IG for more camera and filmmaking tips and tricks: @gustafilms

Grading in an Different Color Space can Dramatically Improve Your Footage! Gustafilms 2019-10-04 | Are you color grading your footage in its native color space? I was too, until I discovered how much better it is to edit in an Alexa LogC rather than Sony Slog-3.One of the many reasons why Arri Alexa ftg is so beloved is for its smooth highlights. When I graded my FS7 footage in LogC, I not only saw a dramatic improvement in how my highlights rolled off, but the overall color and skin tones appear much better as well.I’ve been experimenting with color grading my Sony FS7 footage in different color spaces using the "Color Space Transform" feature in DaVinci Resolve. This is a very powerful and underrated tool when grading footage from multiple cameras that use different color spaces.Sony is infamously known for favoring their greens, but when grading in Alexa’s color space, those greens are neutralized considerably. I also feel like I have a lot more room in my shadows and highlights to push my footage further than when working in Sony’s color space.Now I know this trick isn’t going to magically make your Sony FS7 look JUST like an Arri Alexa, but I think the footage does take on similar characteristics. What do you all think?GEAR:Sony PXW-FS7Canon 24-105mm f4TEST FTG SPECS:S-Log3 / S-Gamut3.CineShot in UHD, 24 fps, XAVC-IFor more filmmaking tips and tricks, follow me on Instagram: instagram.com/gustafilmsWebsite: www.justingustavison.com
5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BE USING V-FLATS Gustafilms 2019-09-08 | Chances are, If you’re a photographer you know what a v-flat is and the value of using them to controlling your light. Filmmakers, on the other hand, aren’t as familiar with these handy and versatile tools. Which is why I’m breaking down my top 5 reasons ways I use v-flats as a filmmaker...1. You can make a giant, full body softbox in seconds! Skip the c-stands and 4x4's. This is the quickest & easiest way to get a large, soft light source.2. Fill & Negative Fill. This is the most obvious reason to use these. Most filmmakers know the importance of having bounce boards and flags to help them shape light. This is both in one!3. Using V-Flats for hanging backdrops is one of my favorite ways to use a V-Flat. I can quickly switch out my background without having to deal with multiple stands, freeing them up to be used in other ways.4. The black and white sides of a V-Flate are fantastic for product shoots or to use as backgrounds for interviews too.5. They are fold-able for smaller table-top shoots. Being able to fold up to a 4x4 footprint allows these to fit in cars for travel and storage when not in use.I'm a huge fan of these things and use them whenever I can in my work. I highly suggest checking them out and using V-Flats whether you're a filmmaker, a photographer or even a vlogger. They have so many applications!Get a V-Flat from V-Flat World here:vflatworld.com/collections/all/products/v-flat-black-white-foldableGEAR USED IN THIS VIDEO:-Sony FS7:bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1082825-REG/sony_pxw_fs7_compact_4k_xdcam_with.html-Light & Motion Stella Pro 5000 LED Light:bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1181850-REG/light_motion_850_0335_a_stella_5000_led_light.html-Aputure Amaran AL-MW Mini LED Light:bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1456404-REG/aputure_al_mw_mini_led_light.html-Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art Lens for Canon EF:bhphotovideo.com/c/product/967344-REG/sigma_18_35mm_f1_8_dc_hsm.html-Music: "The Good Life" by Theevsartlist.io/song/6375/the-good-life-FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM: @gustafilmsMY WEBSITE: www.justingustavison.com
