Okay, we've got our camera setup. And now we're just going to take our own and out. So first thing we want to do is just take this part out this is like our tripod legs followed by the handle. This is the part looks like a lightsaber tight in there. Okay. So make sure you got battery in there, you can just press the button at the bottom I've got three bars, so probably need to charge us up.

There's about 12 hours of battery life. So you can just simply screw this on to the Smaller screw. Okay, make sure it's snug. Okay, so you should have your base like that. Next, I'm going to take off the rest. Okay.

So you want to take the Velcro off. I'm just going to close the bag clear the table Okay, don't lose us. Velcro because it's very useful for packing the road in when you're traveling. Okay, so I can see that I've got some loose screws here because I just came from a trip. So just make sure that you've got the screws on so nothing just slides off. And then your next step, so this is like Step three is you want to attach this base to your foundation.

So simply just angle this bottom part here to the top, you'll just just see the the joystick there and the joystick is going to slide in nicely like that. And then you want to lock that, lock that lever very important. Make sure that That's tight. If it's not tight, you can take it out. Make sure it's all in all the way and then make sure that's locked. Okay, so now we've got our base here.

Now it's time to mount the camera and start to balance the roll into our camera setup. We can see there's unlock and lock. And this is where you might want to stand up. So you need to press this button over here. If you need to slide it in, you can see I'm having trouble because I need a bit more space. So you can adjust this camera mount planes here.

Slide it towards the edge a bit more. Make sure you lock it up. You it. Okay, it's in now. So to balance the first axis, you need to hold the arm where it says Ronan and you want to hold on to here camera lens because you don't want it to slide off the mount plate, but you want it to balance so it doesn't slide off. Okay.

And what we're doing here is once we're letting go of the camera, just to make sure it's balanced, but our cameras still there. Our hand is still there just to make sure that the camera doesn't fall off. Okay. So look at my right hand I'm holding this axis, but now if I like go, I can see that is balanced. If it's unbalanced, you can see that the lens is leaning too far forward, Sunday I need to move it back. And once you find the right measurements, you can then lock it on the left side, I'll just do it from this direction.

Okay, may need some adjustment here. So I'm going to unlock okay. I need to move it back a bit I can see it's leaning forward. Okay, so that's okay. So I'm going to go ahead and lock this. Okay, so that's our first axis.

You can even take a photo you can see there on the plate, there's a, there's a ruler there so I can see that just passed to 2.1 is the right setting to balance this camera and lens setup. Okay, what a lot of the tutorials On the internet don't tell you is that you need to hold this while you're bouncing. The second axis is the tilt axis. So, to do this we want to be able to while holding the Roman arm again, we want the camera setup to just stay up by itself. So it's not doing that right now just wants to go back. So what I need to do is unscrew this, make sure you're holding the mount plate here.

I'm always worried something might slide off. So with that loosen, just pull it up a bit. And yeah, test it out. So I've got the camera setup, pointing straight up. Now another tip here is you want to take the lens cap off, because I'm not gonna be falling with the lens cap. So you want to make sure that if you're going to be filming with an ND filter Leave that on if you're gonna, all of us are not going to film the lens capsule, take that off.

Okay, so no left hand holding up here and staying straight up. So that's what we want. I want to lock that straight in. Make sure that's tight so that this screw doesn't bump into the motor. Okay, so we've got our first axis there, we got the second axis there. And now the last axis is to make sure that this arm can stay perfectly balanced, which is not.

So to do that. I'm just going to loosen that up and just make a micro adjustment and you can See there, no hands. Now it's perfectly bounce. Let me just show you from another angle. See a bounce it over there. And all three axes are now bounced.

Now I want to tighten this. Okay, it is possible that some micro adjustments are needed once you've balanced one of the access maybe that through one of the other accesses out of alignment. So don't be afraid to go back and make a micro adjustment. So if things all three axes are balance, it's a good idea to take a photo of the exact setup. If you're that kind of person. And you can recall it, it'll save you some time.

I can see here I may or may need to make a micro adjustment because it's leaning back. So I'm just going to push This for a little bit, just a bit, just a bit. Okay, there we go, even the slightest movement can throw your balance off. Another tip is to make sure you're doing this on a solid surface. Okay, and now what I'm going to do just to make sure that it's balanced is to open up the Ronan app and then I'm going to go use the balance feature.
