this video was brought to you by NCIX great technology selections and service hello everyone I'm Dimitri with Herick max welcome to another video and in this episode we'll be doing a what's in my bag type of explaining what type of equipment I carry with me whenever I go on trips like Computex and CES but some of you may know that I have relocated to Berlin Germany for four months until January yet I still have to produce all the awesome content that we put out on the channel and therefore some of you you know posted a little Twitter image and Instagram to see if you guys would be interested in seeing what's in my bag and therefore we get that awesome positive response and this would be an interesting video so I want to show you because this backpack can fit a lot of equipment that I need to you know to produce to film to edit and to put out the content for the herb Knox YouTube channel and therefore I thought those would be interesting because it is an incredible amount of equipment that can fit inside this bag as I put laid it out on the table I was actually very surprised myself as to how much really stuff that I brought with me so without any further ado let's get on with this what's in my bag video and so starting with the bag the most important piece of this segment is my lower pro pro runner 350 8w for its build quality the external features and the internal flexibility this offers that allows me to carry as much as I need to we have extra safety straps on each side to make sure nobody gets easy access a tripod holder in the center that I have utilized countless of times when traveling to Computex and CES as well plus there's a built-in the rain cover to keep your expensive parts all nice and dry so seeing this fully packed let's start with a slider that I have attached in the center that I can actually carry on my back as it is compact enough and it's also light enough this is the sin of a doozie with really solid build quality plus carbon fiber rails so it's not as heavy as this looks the carriage does not wobble in any way and movement is extremely smooth you just have to learn how to come to a smooth stop it is made in Canada and was an absolutely needed investment for this trip for my tripod that is also made in Canada and it's also carbon fiber as the goal was to travel as light as possible it holds the camera and a slider very well it has Center elevation adjustment aside from the elevation adjustment from the legs obviously but my favorite feature is the built-in ball head that allows proper alignment when filming on uneven surfaces now for my head this is just a simple amount photo 7:01 HDV video head and to come back through the bag on the side we have the Sennheiser HD 650 s I just can't go anywhere without them opening the first slot of the bag we find an in wind aluminum mouse mat a sweet leather business card holder for my trips a flashlight is always handy in darker situations and the last piece in this pocket is my Nvidia shield tablet and now moving on to the main compartment but first let's recap at just how much stuff I was able to compact into this bag it's a little intimidating now that I look at it here's a more organized view of all the ingredients that create my portable workstation possible so starting with the cover in the lower pocket I keep all of my cables so I know where to look if I need any that includes all of my USB cables my headphone cables because they are detachable from the headphones themselves plus an Ethernet cable just in case in one of the top pockets I keep my USB 3 card reader and the camera strap along with many rubber bands to help with smoother pans and tilts on my tripod head I also do carry around a lens cleaning kit so a microfiber cloth and air blower cleaning liquid and a small brush to get rid of the dust on the glass and getting into the main compartment actually the heaviest piece and this whole thing is the base for my microphone stand it's just full iron it's not very pleasant to carry around followed by a metal pop filter and of course a screw driver you can't build a system without one next I bought my USB d3 DAC from audio engine that's compact and produces clean their audio than my onboard sound of notebook of course I need a shark filter for my recording mic a 1080p webcam to record the damn good show my audio technica at2020 I used to record all my videos it is also located in the protective leather pouch a metal pole for the microphone stand followed by the shore in earphones also protected from the equipment elements in this bag it sits in its own pouch and our antlion mode mic 4.0 that i yet have to review now one of the last recording pieces there's the scarlett 2i2 it fits well inside the top pouch that is used to record the voiceovers a little piece hiding in the corner is a hot shoe mount and that is used for various purposes to mount lights microphones and sometimes even external monitors next I have a polarizing filter for my main lens the zoom h4n is nicely cuddled right decided and below them are my two primary lenses so the bauer 35 millimeter t 1.5 cinestyle lens and a sigma 105 f 2.8 macro my two most used lenses for our videos so you may already know that I am recording this with the 5d mark ii and my travel pancake lens from Canon the 40 millimeter F 2.8 that adds almost nothing to the size nor the weight of the system and this just stays on my shoulder when I travel the pop filter for the zoom covers my wireless mic system from Sennheiser that gives me that convenience of course free recording next is a simple card pouch for extra CF and SD cards then we see the HD 8 DJ headphone from Sennheiser that are folded nicely to fit inside the bag and they cover my favorite optical mouse the my onyx nail 7000 so we're almost done here the neighboring compartment holds two external drives to which footage and project files are transferred for backup next is the battery compartment for the camera and a few rechargeable triple-a batteries and lastly the micro USB charger for my phone and the tablet and my notebook power brick that luckily is thin enough to fit into the bottom of the aggghhhhh and finally there is a side laptop pocket where i stash away my 15 inch notebook and that's basically how my portable workstation fits inside my pro runner I'm very impressed with myself at how I can transport all this recording gear inside the back plus my audio equipment and video equipment that I just can't go without and all thanks to proper compartment separation although I will admit that it's a complete pain to carry around this fully loaded backpack and so that concludes our what's in my bag video if you enjoy this make sure to leave us a like
