Poorman's video setup
6

I would like to share this poorman's (hobbyist's) set up with you.

I have the 503 head on 755B, which is great for a light weight camera like a GH5. I put in $2 worth of pipe insolation to keep my hands freezing in the winter. I put a RC2 QR mount on the 501PL plate for quick mounting and dismounting. The 755B has a leveling center column to let me quickly level the camera. I have a $4 remote trigger so I don't have to touch the camera to turn it on/off. I put in a shoulder strap (from a discarded camera bag) so I can carry the whole setup on my shoulder when I go around location.

Everything is on the cheap side and it works for me.
