Reddit mentions of Samsung MU-PA500B 500GB Blue

u/Rubot2017 - if you're shooting corporate video, I'd get an actual video or cinema camera instead of a still camera modified for video.

For 1.399€, you can get a Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K plus an entry level cinema lens such as the 399€ Meike 25mm T2.2 [Referrals].

With the Meike cine lens, this camera can give you results like this:

• Juliana Herz - San Lorenzo Bikinis by Charles Guinto (4K)
  
• Fitness 19 Spin Class: 30 Second Commercial by MilkContent (4K)
  
  Here it is shooting corporate with other lenses:
  
  
• Platzhirsch Festival 2019 | Tag 1 by White Elephant (1080p)
  
• Volkswagen - We Drive Football - Key To Mobility QR Code by Mathias Jaro (4K)
  
• Olive Threadz - Summer 2019 by John Pesina (4K)
  
  You can rig the Pocket 4K inexpensively like this with a:
  
  
• 4,44€ pistol grip
  
• 17,65€ battery plate
  
• 4,95€ screw
  
• 35,99€ charger with 2 x NP-F batteries
  
• 16,34€ 12V to Weipu cable
  
• 94,90€ 500GB T5 SSD
  
• 5,85€ cold shoe adapter
  
• 6,93€ cold shoe swivel mount
  
• 7,13€ adapter for small smartphones
  
  With this relatively inexpensive setup, you'll be ready to shoot for less than 2.500€
  
  Hope this is helpful and good luck with finding the right camera for your needs!

thanks for the tip, so something like this should be fine? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Portable-SSD-T5-500GB/dp/B074MCM721/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=samsung+t5&qid=1558352190&s=gateway&sr=8-3 pretty cheap too, only hundred bucks

I should have been clearer. I just meant something that connects to that port, and i can attach to the stand on the back of the Mac. I have found this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Portable-SSD-T5-500GB/dp/B074MCM721/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Seems cheap and i saw a video where i 30gb video file transferred from a 2017 Macbook Pro to it in under a minute, which is a much larger file than i would use.

this is the one im using and im extremely happy with it.

>full from 1 afternoon of Sentry mode

damn, you must have parked in a very high traffic area, even now theyve added in the other cam i dont get 14g in an afternoon.

Thanks! I've ordered this, I'll see what the cable's like but hopefully it'll be decent. According to the reviews it comes with USB-C to USB-C too - is that my best option for connecting it to the iMac (both my Thunderbolt ports are unused currently)?

what product did you buy? Why 250 gb external instead of 250 gb internal?

Looking at one of these 2 products :

• 500 G https://www.amazon.fr/Samsung-MU-PA250B-EU-Disque-Externe/dp/B074MCKLHJ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1537195838&sr=8-4&keywords=ssd+externe+usb+c
  
• 250 G https://www.amazon.fr/Samsung-MU-PA500B-EU-Externe-Transfer/dp/B074MCM721/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1537195838&sr=8-3&keywords=ssd+externe+usb+c
  
  Destiny install size is already 110 g. I'm worried how big it could get in the future

Amazons choice is currently sat at £95.49 down from £178! That's a 500gb t5

The cheaps ones suck.. there is a reason they're cheap.

This one is the best you'll get for a reasonable price.
