    Awesome work. New handle looks amazing. Love the super simple design.

    It looks like the Lumix 8mm is a little wider and more distorted than the 60d or t3i with the manybrand?
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    Yeah it's a totally different look, hard to get use to.
    What is "manybrand"?
  •  
  • Ben Ericson 1 month ago
    I think that's something that was coined on skateperception. That 8mm lens that, Rokinon, Opteka, Bower, etc all make. The cheapy.

    wow thats sick. bought the first eazy handle two weeks ago. been using it and its amazing. thanks for making them!
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    Hell Yeah thanks for the support! Just to clarify I don't make them my dad does, he's the brains. I don't wanna take any credit for that :) I work closely with him on design, ergonomics, fee, etc.. would be for Filmers out there.
    Thanks again

    will the first easy handle be less expensive then the new one? and will the handle work for a canon powershot sx40 hs point and shoot?
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    No and Im pretty sure no. I say the height's the handle will hold at the end of the video.

    Do you prefer shooting with the 60D or the GH2? In my mind I think thant it's better to shoot with APS-C than micro 4/3 because an 8mm on 4/3 is same as a 15mm on full frame whereas a 8mm on APS-C is like à 13mm on FF sensor. but these math are maybe faulse with a fisheye...
    Thanks if you can answer me.
    However the nike SB chronicle was insane!! Thanks for pushing the skateboard video out of the VX1000 style!!!
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    I think people can argue this all day/night, which camera is better...
    This is what I think. THERE IS NO WRONG OR RIGHT, THERE IS ONLY HOW GOOD YOU ARE WITH THAT TOOL... Personally I was tired of seeing the rolling shutter, Moire, and artifacts from most canon camera's. So I thought I'd give the GH2 a whirl, this video and footage is me learning to use the GH2. From what I can see in camera, and editing I think it kills every canon i've used video wise... As far as your question about sensor size etc... What your saying is correct to a point. Except that the 8mm Lumix is specifically made for MFT sensor cameras and would look a lot different on APS-C sensor cameras. Just because the number is the same dosen't mean one gives you a larger image. Each fisheye is supposed to be used on a specific sensor to achieve it's full image. I used my Sigma 8mm on the GH2 for some of the Handle product shots it has the "number/8mm" on it and it's a fish eye, but the distortion of course isn't the same as the Lumix 8mm. (because it's a fisheye for APS-C sensor camera's)

    I've noticed my canon 60d with a Sigma 8mm
    (although is has a lot of vignetting) is nearly as wide as the X-treme fisheye on a HPX/HVX. These two to me are the wides't/best image optically.

    However the 8mm Lumix on a GH2/AF101 is smaller then the above.
    But GOD DAMN! the image I feel is better then most of the Canon's I owned 7d, 60d, T3i, and a HPX/HVX.
    My favorite DSLR camera/fisheye combo was the 5d and a 15mm so I can't wait to see what the C300 with that looks like.

    All this is JUST MY OPINION!
    Jason H
  • Romain Gerlach 2 weeks ago
    Thanks for your answer!

    The C300 has the same crop factor of 1,6 like APS-C so with EF lense it will be the same.
    Maybe with a PL mont fisheye like a PELENG 3.5/8PL... However working with cine lense is awsome. I work sometime with a FS100 with some Zeiss CP2 and the image is god dam sharp!

    In france the skate industry has a very low budget so I know that I will not pay a Xtreme century fisheye to film skate, and I don't want to buy a small sensor camera(productions already own theses for news work).
    I think I will maybe wait the 5DmkIII or 5DX and buy the canon 15mm... Or wait the new nikon's DSLR that seems to have f****ing great new video mode.
    During this time I will continue to use my XHA1s(even if now I hate HDV!) and T1i with Magic lantern.

    Anyway as soon as I buy a new DSLR I buy your handle because I'm sure that it's the best one out there.

    Thank you.

    better than my geto rig. just wish i could check it out somewere before i get one.
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    You did, you just watched a video:)
    I know what you mean it's alway's nice to play with things first before you buy them, I've played with a few rigs and a lot of them just feel cheap, and horribly thought out. Most of them think all you need is a handle, but didn't think about how easy it is, to shake the handle as well as the camera. Of course I don't want my footage to look shaky so that's why our rig has the different weights in the back to counter balance your camera, etc...
  • Adam Meads plus 1 week ago
    what is the weight on this guy?

    Getting this as soon as i get my canon 5d mark ii ! In your other videos, what fisheye do you use with the 5dmark ii?
  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago
    With the 5d i use a Canon 15mm fisheye. Other fisheye's i use are Sigma 8mm, and Lumix 8mm, as well as the beast Century X-treme fisheye for HVX/HPX
  • Romain Gerlach 1 week ago
    be carrefull with a 5D markII you can't do slowmotion because it only records 25P

  • Jason Hernandez plus 1 month ago

  • Pez Verde Sb 3 weeks ago
    Una sola pregunta , para las cámaras nikon , en este caso para una Nikon D5000 este handle si es bueno o solo sirve para cámaras canon ?

    Los ojos de pez que usted utiliza en sus videos son buenos también para las nikon ( Nikon D5000 ) ?


    Excelentes vídeos , muy buenos intros en el Nike y partes como la de lewis .

    soy gran seguidor y admirador de sus videos , gracias .

    What brand of light you use (LED or other?)? During night you filmed them looks pretty clearly! RAD!

  • Eyewax plus 2 weeks ago
    Have you ever mounted a monitor to the rig? It looks like a great solution if I could find a way to put my DP4 on there without throwing the balance too far off. Thoughts?

    If the price of the handle is too expensive for you, then by all means go pick up Swandle. All this thing is good for is holding the camera (not well thought out) , not to mention its made out of cheap plastic that flexes and only secures your camera in one place.

    We are a small family owned business that really cares and thinks about our product. If you want to support us, great. If not, then good luck!

    Here's a tip, If you're trying to money, hopefully you'll be spending it on the right thing (good quality glass for your dslr)
