Equipment
The question I get asked the most by far is what equipment I actually use. In order to clarify this question once and for all, there is now this page, on which I explain the answer to this question in detail š
Videoequipment
šø The Camera
My main camera is theĀ Canon R6, and I have aĀ Canon 6D Mark 2Ā as a second backup camera. Even though many content creators have now switched to Sony, I started with Canon many years ago and I am still very satisfied with this decision š
š¤ Microphone
The microphone I use is actually not a typical microphone for film recordings. I primarily use aĀ SM58 Shure, which is actually a stage microphone. I have it from the old days when I sang in a band many, many years ago and it still serves me well to this day.
š” Light
My main light is theĀ Amaran 60XĀ with a cheapĀ softboxĀ and I really love this light! For a relatively low price you get a really handy light with absolute professional features. I can really warmly recommend this light to each of you!bsoluten Profifeatures. Kann ich jedem von euch wirklich sehr ans Herz legen!
“Every Day” Tech
š» Macbook
As a content creator and software developer, itās certainly not unexpected that I use a Macbook š In my case, itās theĀ Macbook Pro 2023Ā with M3 Max chip. Absolute beast, which I do not want to miss anymore!
āØļø Laptop Accessories
I only recently got into the world of mechanical keyboards and have been using anĀ Akko Black and Gold 3068BĀ ever since. Small and handy mechanical keyboard, but with arrow keys, that was the deciding factor for me! I use theĀ MX Master 3SĀ as a mouse.
š„ļø Portable Monitor
Since Iām not satisfied with having only the Macbook screen when Iām on the go, I also use aĀ mobile screen from AzorpaĀ (and my iPad) to have my usual 3-screen setup when Iām on the go. (Absolute luxury, but I love it very much, haha š)
š§ Headphones
My main headphones are theĀ JBL 500 BTĀ as over-ears for everything that needs good quality, such as editing, etc. Otherwise, I also have a pair ofĀ AirpodsĀ for listening to music on the go or, for example, in the gym.
š± iPhone
I resisted Apple for a long time, especially when it came to cell phones, and for a long time I was a big Android advocate. At some point I grabbed theĀ iPhone 13Ā because of the camera and meanwhile Iām very hooked by the Apple cosmos and the interaction of all devices.
āļø iPad
In fact, the only Apple device Iāve owned for much longer is myĀ iPadĀ from the 2017 generation. Was an absolute game changer for me when I was studying! Having all my lecture notes with me anytime, anywhere, without lugging around 10kg folders is just so damn much more comfortable.
āļø Apple Watch
More luxury than really necessary, but I also love myĀ Apple WatchĀ a lot now. Be it for logging my results in the gym without having to carry my cell phone with me, for all the automatic analysis features such as movement, etc. and forā¦ well, reading the time.
