In case you missed it, we here at CineD have been pretty busy over the past few months (and obviously still are), not only publishing news and reviews for you, our valued readers, but also adding more sections to our CineD page. For example, the new Gear Guides, which will hopefully help you find the perfect piece of equipment in the jungle of offerings.

To help you better understand what this is all about, let me give you a little more insight into one of our recommended kits in the new Gear Guide section: Johnnie’s signature FUJIFILM X-T4 Documentary Kit!

The new Gear Guides are divided into four main sections: by Budget, by Type, Recommended Kits and by Purpose. Johnnies FUJIFILM X-T4 Documentary Kit falls into the Recommended Kits section where you can also find other recommendations.

As filmmaking equipment continues to improve and be replaced by newer generations, the Gear Guides will also change over time. New makes and models will be added, older versions will be replaced, and new Recommended Kits will emerge. Of course, the same is true for the other sections. So don’t think of the new Gear Guides as a static list, but rather as a dynamically evolving, bespoke collection of recommendations.

To understand not only what Johnnie chose for his kit, but also why he chose the individual parts that make up the complete documentary kit, you can read his thoughts on each of the gear items mentioned in his Gear Guides article.

And that’s the key, especially for the section on Recommended Kits. Each author goes through his/her kit and explains why he/she chose that particular component. So it’s not just a bill of materials, but a deep dive into years of experience in the field.
