Hey guys welcome back! So today is gonna be a weird video. Today we're gonna be building handheld rig for an action camera and a couple of days ago I thought can this little guy which is DJI Osmo action? Can this guy shoot something cinematic? And I hope like it will be able to because today we're gonna be build a handheld rig for this. And I bought a couple of accessories made by Smallrig. So this is the first one. This is a small rig cage for the DJI Osmo action. And you know what? I'm actually like this is the first time I'm dealing with any products made by Smallrig. And I was really surprised at how good quality it is like considering the price of like maybe 20 max $30 max. This is really robust. This is really like reliable. No like the camera is not like wiggling around in it. Everything is really well made. So yeah good stuff is Smallrig and I will link their website down in the description below. So right now I'm going to change the angle and I'm gonna show you around. I'm gonna show you more of a close-up on all of those accessories and I will show you like all of those mounting points. And by the way if you are a beginner photographer and you don't know anything please check out my blog down the description below where I assembled some cool and necessary info for beginner photographers. So without further ado I'm gonna change the angle and I'm gonna show you all of those accessories. So this is our cage. First of all it comes with this really handy adapter for your filter and it is 52 millimeter thread which can be totally removed using the hex key which comes with the cage. At the top we have two quarter 20 mounds with a bigger Ari mount. At the bottom we have five quarter 20 mounds. On the side we have six quarter 20 mounds which are positioned conveniently to attach like any other accessories. And on the other side we have four quarter 20 mounds. So this cage is really robust and it's really like holds the camera really tight because you see it has this kind of rubber gasket on the on the side on the door and it holds camera really well. And those screws are really annoying to screw in because they are so tiny. And so that's all about the cage. So let's move on to our handles. So this is our handle. It's a pretty simple design but it has like everything that you might need. So it uses two quarter 20 mounds, quarter 20 screws to attach to our cage and to like anything you want. It has three more quarter 20 mounds on the top and it's like it's primarily made of plastic but where the mounting points are it's made of this kind of cold to the touch plastic which is really more reliable. And it also comes with this hex key which we can use to adjust the height of our handle. So without further ado let's get building. So let's start by taking our cage and inserting our camera into this cage. So as I've already mentioned it has this kind of rubber thingy on the door which presses against the camera and so our camera will not like be wiggling around the cage. And have I mentioned that those screws are really annoying? Yes they are. Now let's move to our handle. First I'm going to attach the handle on the right or is it left? Whatever. An attachment is really easy and straightforward. You just screw it in and maybe tighten it using the hex key which is hidden in the handle and it is really sturdy and it's really reliable. You just tighten them up and you can hide this key inside the handle and it sits there using magnets which is really cool. Ready our rig is way more stable. So if you move if you try to move the camera this tiny little camera with your hand it will wiggle it will bounce it will just be all over the place. And for this video for this cinematic video I'm not going to be using any in-camera stabilization. So I just want to I just want this rig to do the job of stabilizing our shots. So now with two handles attached it will be way more stable. And now I'm going to do something crazy. I think I'm going to attach a variable in the filter to our action camera here. As you already know there are all sorts of ND filters for action camera for gopers for DJI for like all action cameras. And those ND filters are fixed. So they are like ND8, ND16, 30, 32, 64 etc. And now I'm going to use two step-up rings to mount my big 77 millimeter variable ND filter. And I thought well as long as I'm holding this rig in my hands I will be able to change this variable ND like with my hand. And why bother buying all of those tiny filters which are fixed. So now I'm using two step-up rings 52 to 55 and then 55 to 77. And as you can see our rig is it is ridiculous. This is it for this video. Hopefully you've enjoyed guys.
