What content/story are you filming? I ask because unless the walk itself is the "hero" of the content then a small amount of movement should not matter, in fact it keeps it natural.

I had this a long while back but from memory the firmware update process doesn't play with Mac at all. I found a way (via YouTube) of installing a virtual Windows instance and it was clunky but worked. You could also try Boot Camp on the Mac (cleaner option) but that may only be for Intel Macs...

Backblaze!

What distance are you from the mic?

I am indeed from that area - Croydon is often in the headlines for the wrong reasons nowadays but my family area all here and we are happy!

Hi George, you need the Røde SC7 cable and a 3.5mm to lightning dongle/connector for the iPhone. The SC7 has three rings (TRRS) and that is the end to connect to the lightning dongle. Apple did supply them with iPhones a few years back when they switched their earphone connector but you can get...

+1 for Lastolite, does the job well.

I plan to sell my Tascam DR-40 soon, including accessories such as mains cable & remote. Just need to get myself organised and list it!

I’d suggest Godox Rob, have a look on Lencarta or Essential Photo sites. I have (too) many flashes but if starting again I would go straight to Godox. The V860ii has Lithium batteries and a pretty good spec. I don’t shoot wildlife though so others on here may have better suggestions for that.

And Error 9 is back again, despite Lencarta fully testing the light over the Christmas period. Initially they found no fault but then it developed. They applied the firmware, tested it fully, sent it to me, it worked, then I charged the empty battery and it came up with the error after switching...

I looked that up the first time it happened but the original, shipped firmware version is not on their site.

I’m just about to return one of my AD600Pros to Lencarta for repair/replacement due to the fact that it won’t take the most recent firmware update. It has worked a couple of times but then keeps beeping and showing “Error 9”. Possibly bricked. Worrying/annoying really, I’ve followed all the...
