Update: kzhead.info/sun/jLmuqJhwhJZpe5E/bejne.html ... about SSD and Flash Drive after using it for a while for "real world work" I use for ProResLT but also h265/HEVC in Apple Log for Video with the iPhone 15 Pro Max with the Blackmagic Camera App.
Thank you for this video. It helped me get sorted out. 🎉🙌🖤👍
This episode was right for me because nobody had a summary of all the memory choices. So, thanks. Just received the 15 Pro Max.
Thanks… glad I could help … there will be a update online tomorrow with a few more recommendations what to use after using those and even e few more for a lil while now ✌🏻
Great video. Thank you. It would be great if someone would make a grip that included a USBC hub to connect an SSD and has a lithium rechargeable battery inside.
Tanks for the video. Can’t wait your test on the smallrig cage.
Just uploaded the small rig cage video and the SSD solution is a bit tricky with it … right now non of my stuff works with that cage 😅
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl Tanks 😊
After using the small Samsung 256GB Flash Drive for a few more Projects: I really would recommend using it for HEVC/h265 Apple Log with the Blackmagic Camera App when shooting 50 or 60 fps...for more than 5-10 Sek per shot. 30 or 25/24 is fine with ProResLT ... If you want ProResLT / ProRes HQ in higher frame-rates use a Samsung T7!
Did you get it to work, i am going to buy one of these ssd’s for my iPhone but im not sure which i should get. I want to be able to export from gallery to the ssd, and back if needed.
Thanks for this video. I bought the MagSafe wallet, SSD, 180 USB C and USB C extender. Unfortunately the 180 was too short and didn’t work with my case. However there was another 180 on Amazon that was long enough to work. Very much appreciated you sharing this video, it saved me research time. Keep up the good work!
What wallet did you buy?!
Great video! Thank you! Does the solution of the SSD drive works with the DJI Osmo 6 gimbal? Is there a difference in power consumption between the SSD drive and the small USB drive?
Great video. It looks like you have a wonderful solution to have to having your sleek I phone pro max turned in to a lego construction with the cage and accessories. In. addition your 15 pro max case seems Ideal for the conversion. I wanted to know what brand of case did you feature in the video ? Thank You !
wow, thank you!
OMG thank you so much I have the same DJI gimble as well... I am subscribing.
Thanks for the sub!
Hi excellent video and ordered and assembled the ssd MagSafe case set up but it’s too big for two phone clamps I have to add to tripod or gimbal. Do you know any clamps this would work with as it’s thick when it’s all out together
Do these fit also for 15 Pro? meaning usb adaptor and extension usb c for SSD T7... if you have links to the case as well for 15 Pro setup would be awesome!
Thanks for the review. For how long did you filmed with both SSD on the back ? did it overheat ?
well so far only B-Roll, not more than 10-15 sec per shot for about 10-20min for each location so nothing too demanding… not sure if I would shoot a whole interview for example with that setup … this is more for quick run and gun … for longer stuff I would use a cage with the SSD on top of the cage or somewhere else on the rig, just to be safe
How did you know how to position the sticky magsafe exactly for those adapters?
What is the set up with the wide LCD's in the background? Thanks for the excellent video too!
just my edit setup with two LG Ultrawide Screens mounted on top of each other
How works the Camera app with SSD? Witch connection ?
Did you get it to work, i am going to buy one of these ssd’s for my iPhone but im not sure which i should get. I want to be able to export from gallery to the ssd, and back if needed.
for the samsung pendrive or the SSDs, does it only allow to record directly to the pendrive when recording in ProRes or in any format is fine?
Ok This is Great but I can only save videos directly to SSD and I just wanted it for photos and save it directly on SSD. Any suggestions would be helpful!!
i have the 15 pro max and i got the prores and i even shoot in 1080 because when i record with my SSD samsum T7 i try to watch the video on my computer i can only listen to the audio the video its all black and shows a messege of codec error not support and thats not even in 4K can somebody helpr please?
Lässt sich die Klammer des Gimbals auch dran machen wenn die Samsung T7 am iPhone hängt?
SO WHATS THE BEST GIMBLE FOR THE PRO max ???? any help.
Please do slugger video comparing with Sd card reader and flash drive vs ssd., and tell us which is more compatible and affordable and faster., let us know which is best and minimalist and faster at the same time! Thank great video
is in the works... online soon!
I'm also planning to use Blackmagic app on ProRes 422 LT and I ordered same Neewer cage for my iPhone 15 Pro. I found your video when checking if the Samsung flash drive was fast enough. I liked your solution for the Samsung SSD even better. Curious whether it will work with the Neewer cage. I don't discard the option of the flash drive just yet though. Thanks a lot for your video!
sure thing ... happy I could help ... The Neewer Cage is delayed, the SmallRig Cage was shipped today... so i guess a Video about that 1st... As soon as I get the Neewer Cage arrives I will make a video about that as well.
Yep, delayed until the 10th they told me. I've been checking videos and it seems it's not very thick around the usb port. We'll see. I think a good option would be faster flash drives, even if they are bigger. On the back of the phone it wouldn't really disturb. At the end the tiny adapter is the key hehe.
Actually, I just realised that with my gimbal they would do disturb! The flash drive should be very short, like the Samsung of your video... or I should place it at the bottom of the iPhone, not on the back, with a different adapter.
how to give extra power to the iphone while connected to ssd?
I am just running in to one issue as I also wanna use my wireless mic with my isteady mobile plus
Thank you for this! Thinking to get the flash drive, it seems to support shooting prores LT with 4K60FPS (using Blackmagic app) am i right?
so just today on a shoot with the small Flash Drive I had issues shooting ProResLT 4k50fps for longer takes more than just 10-20 Sek... so I switched to HEVC/h265 4k50 Apple Log
What is the type of case on your iPhone? Where did you purchase it and could you provide a link to it. TIA
its the Torras Case ... you can find it here: kit.co/urbn.pxl/iphone-15-pro-max but i'm still testing cases as well
Nice solutions for handheld with the small Samsung usb flash drive, , but with the T7 or other solutions to attach to the back of your phone it won't work with the dji gimbal due to the clamp magnetic connector used to attach your phone to the gimbal
yeah with gimbals its not usable ... usually I record internally (black magic app) or use the small 256GB Samsung with h265
great! I will use my Samsung SSD T7 with my 15 pro max...but I always use a case with my iphone so I don't think the couple will work...what short (under 6 inch or less) fast data USB-C to USB-C cable would you recommend? I intend to record Pro res externally...thanks so much!
well as you can see @2:16 I'm using the T7 with a case as well and with the 180 degree adapter and the coupler it works perfectly. no need for a cable. if you look into my linked Kit pager you can find all the items needed
thanks so much...I will give it a try! @@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl
I just bought the insta360 flow gimbal, what do you recommend as compatible solution? I wonder if SSD T7 works with the magnetic mount of the gimbal?
the insta360 gimbal should be in tha same class/size but I fear its not gonna work with any bigger ssd since you cant really mount them and it might also be a weight and balance issue
Hi, any way to attach an external mic at the same time as an ssd? Thanks...
You need a 4 port usb c adapter to use at the same time Bellingham have one that’s perfect
I have the iPhone 15 Pro Max and I use a type C wired microphone and I want to be able to plug that in and also a type of type C hard drive or thumb drive at the same time how can I do that I want to be able to use my microphone and the type C some drive at the same time
that might be a compley rig you need a powered USB-C hup for that
Can you store 1080p videos from on the iPhone to an external ssd?
yes you can
Do you have any setup for osmo mobile 6 gimbal with ssd?
well not much options since the weight limit of the osmo mobile 6 gimbal is quite low ... the small 256GB Samsung Flashdrive works tho but is not perfect ... even that one is a bit too big
But how can I connect my rode mic system and SSD simultaneously ? Is there an adapter on the market ?
well not really without using a USB-C Hub (a small one from belkin seem to be used by a lot of ppl) but you also might need a powerbank with that hub to power the hub, the SSD and the wireless go audio (not sure about that) I will look into all that next month, it gets complex ;-)
so how do you fit your Nd filter? no shooting LoG outdoors without one?
i'm using the Freewell iPhone case if i need ND... I have a video about that
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl I have the Brandon Li small rig case, but would like to find a gimbal to mount the whole rig on with ssd and lenses, preferably with tracking but can’t seem to find anything that will work without spending a small fortune
2:18 I bought this exact setup and im having issues when filming on the black magic camera app. It somehow keeps stuttering my footage and the app shows an exclamation mark while trying to film 4k 60fps (which the T7 samsung ssd should be able to do) A few times when it does work my footage is great and smooth. but im sad to say I havent found the solution for recording apple pro log
sounds like a connection issue .... maybe the adapter you got is not working .... did you try the USB-C cable that came with the T7?
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl yea it works but I specifically bought that adapter you recommended because it’s a lot more simpler
@@musicviolamusician4392 well mine works just fine ... might be a defective unit you got
Did you modify your phone case to allow the usb-c male to fit into the iphone?
ah yes I had to remove a lil bit of the plastics with that case around the USB-C port
How can you connect the iPhone with its SSD to the GIMBAL? Best!
well that might be tricky ... only using the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 so far ... shooting internat or with that lil Samsung Stick with that
Please tell me the model number of the case you are using.
its a TORRAS Case ... its all linked on my Kit Page: kit.co/urbn.pxl/iphone-15-pro-max
I have iPhone 15 pro max when I connect crucial x10 it does not show up, what could be the reason ?
the X10 Pro might be formatted the wrong way ... check on you mac and format it to APFS ... also the cable might not work correctly on the phone
Thank you for your reply, I found the issue it was related to profiling that was preventing the access. Thank you
Hi there, can someone help me out my Blackmagic Cam app it’s not detecting my Samsung T7 I even formatted it to APFS format and still nothing!😢
you have to go into the "Save Clips To" option in nthe settings and select files and go to use SSD and hit open
if that does not work I dont really what goes wrong ... defective SSD, iPhone, Cable, USB-Port, App Bug ... too many reasons for a possible isssue
An external microphone and a holder are often required, in which case the Magsafe mounting solution does not work and a large and fast SSD is needed.
Might get that connected for anker card reader and just use ssd cards
well a card reader might work too ... just a bit tricky to mont safely
... but I also will test card reader options
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl the anker is pretty small just abit bigger then the samsung but people say they both drop frames when full with prores and that ssd is best option. The other one is transcend ssd 👍
@@jesusblessthesecommentsamen but keep in mind you will need V90 UHS-II SD Cards for ProRes ... ProResLT might work but and up with more dropped frames than with faster Flashdrives or SSD of course ... with "normal" V60 cards I would sugest h265/HEVC in the Blackmagic App you can shoot Log with that codec as well
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxl I’ve just got v30 xc 1 extream pro from my DJI drone recorded pro res onto it but havnt done full test or noticed drop frames got t7 hard drive also
whats the name of the wallet at 4:08?
its all linked on my Kit page: kit.co/urbn.pxl/iphone-15-pro-max
Kingston Data Traveler Max flash usc c 3.2 gen 2 is the solution
Anyone managing to get nvme 4.0 working?
Does SSD drain your phones battery?
yes it does ... its alright tho' but if you shoot for a long time / longer takes you will notice it ... but again I guess the screen and processing of the phone is the reason for the battery to go down quite fast.
hi there, may i ask something how did you upside down that wallet?? is it possisble?? did you make something? please help me
well... sadly I did not show that as clear as I should have. I put a magsafe magnet ring on it, just like with the samsung ssd but there is a magsafe elastic wallet with a hole amzn.to/3SLVMOL
... I also updated my iPhone 15 Pro Max kit with a few more essential stuff: kit.co/urbn.pxl/iphone-15-pro-max
Hagibis Magnetic M.2 2230 NVMe SSD
KILOMILO MagSafe NVMe SSD Storage Enclosure
finally a video i'm looking for, i dont shoot 4K 60 so for me tha samsung flashdrive should be enough
happy to help ... so in the Blackmagic App with ProResLT, yes for sure ... shooting ProResHQ 30 in the apple native iPhone app might still end up with dropped frames, 24 is fine tho even with ProResHQ
@@MichaelSchmidt_UrbnPxlso should i go for it?
Are you going there too?)Are you seriously going to shoot for this? these are toys for a couple of times, until you remember about your normal cameras.
sometimes client work actually requires using an iPhone, also sometimes you can get unique shots bcuz of the size and how you can "place"/rig / setup the phone. and in/on some locations you just cant bring a bigger camera or it just does not fit ... just a few of the reasons
Orrrr hear me out. Apple could stop being an ass and add back a micro SD card slot.
never gonna happen ;-)
All these accessories. Just buy 1TB iPhone
You can’t shoot 4k log on internal storage
Why don't people save themselves a lot of trouble with all that stupid accessories, and just buy the iPhone 15 with 1TB, and just be done with it.
doesnt worth the money
4K60 is only supported with external storage and SSD’s are a lot more convenient for workflows.
The reason for these accessories and features is to save you from transferring these huge files to your computer that will take a long time.
Because that 2TB SSD is something you can hold in your hand and not be dependent on the internet being there
if you record multiple b rolls on your iPhone your internal drive will fill up within the day. Plus pro res raw adds to the size. The average guy using his phone for calls and apps doesn’t need this.
Kingston Data Traveler Max flash usc c 3.2 gen 2 is the solution
yeah could be a good option as well
