Are iPhone video cages OVERRATED? SmallRig x Brandon Li iPhone Video Kit - Videographer’s Reaction
You can find the iPhone videography kit here: https://amzn.to/41RuN6B
The Brandon Li Video Kit made by SmallRig if nothing else, is an intriguing piece of smartphone videography equipment. Smartphone video cages & filming gear has been rising in popularity over the last few years, and SmallRig was kind enough to send over the new Brandon Li x SmallRig Video Kit collaboration to test out. This kit is made exclusively for the iPhone 15 Pro Max smartphone, but SmallRig also carries a generic black version for the iPhone 15 Pro smartphone.
This iPhone videography cage comes with side handles, a variable ND filter for videography, and a removable bluetooth shutter control button on top of one of the side handles.
In this video I will answer the question:
Is the Brandon Li Video Kit worth it? Or is it an overrated piece of Smartphone video production gear?
What are the features of the SmallRig smartphone videography kit and how can you use it to create cinematic films on your iPhone 15 Pro Max
How can you unlock the full videography capabilities of your iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max smartphones, especially the ability to film in Apple Log footage?
How to use the Black Magic Camera app to compliment the Brandon Li Video Kit and get the absolute best video footage out of your iPhone 15 Pro Max smartphone.
What do I dislike about the Brandon Li Videography kit and what I wish SmallRig would have included.
Will I be using the Brandon Li Video Kit on my future commercial media productions?
