5 Essential Gimbal Moves for Shooting Real Estate Video
I've been trying to find a XD-picture card but it's really hard! I had an olympus microSD-XD-adapter and it obviously works only with olympus, not Fuji. Nice to realise that only after I got rid of the olympus that had XD-card in it. The fuji f30 has some internal memory but it's not much. Oh well, I'm going to sell it anyways.
what lighting system lights up you in this video? Thank you vey informative stuff. subscribed.
finally real stuff. not these clowns around.
super helpful - thanks
just used my 70d to make a video where i am moving around in shot .I just assumed it would do it and it did. Had it on completely automatic for exposure too!
Can someone please help me and tell me how to move data from this camera to my pc
Interesting info. I've never understood why all portable video recording equipment is dark-colored, or even black. Don't manufacturers know it will become very hot in direct sunlight? Why wouldn't they make them white?
Mine is with me quite often, oh and I also have a pristine black example that stays in the drawer most of the time. The one I shoot most of the time is the champagne model with a bit of tape holding the battery door shut.
great video. very very helpful
Can you do a gimbal moves for those into land banking real estate
The PDF is nowhere to be found....
Nice! This might be a good video for film schools, production companies and tv stations, explaining that you don't try to find out the wheel when it is about quality, speed and storytelling. So you don't warp yourself in a frustrating configuration of some ultrabyte kind of thing and just use a decent tool that already exists. It is probably cheaper too! In those days people were so scared about the prices that they bought this Canon XL1, a body you could not lean on your shoulder and therefore had to be carried in front of your face to see the viewfinder, so you could not use any finger to adjust the lens or whatever. This kind of designer drama also overcame Sony with the EX3. I once bought a second hand EX3 and thought immediately: this sucks. Years later I ended up with this FX7 with a cheap lens in the desert of Jordanie, in a jeep steering through the hot sand bumping and bumping so I couldn't make any proper shot, not even a wide total. Another guy with a telephone on the same bumpy ride made the most beautiful pictures. Long story short: good cameras for reporters are big and expensive. New modern tools could be good too. But everything inbetween from the last twenty years can't compete. In the ninetees I filmed with the Ikegami HL95 (in 2003 I had 4 of them) Nowadays I film a lot with the Sony AX33, a 4K handycam. The 4K option makes it possible to zoom afterwards. That's the replacement of the incredible expensive wide angle Canon Lens (with optical bending correction) 36.000 gulden in 1997. While still doing reports, I don't miss the big gear. So it is not about the money (a second hand AX33 you can get voor 300 euro) but about your satisfaction in storytelling. And to come back on WHY good gear is so expensive: yes indeed if you are in a system interlocked and you can get video feedback in your viewfinder from the OB van... This brings me to another aspect of the high costs of proper technologies. Professional gear has a depreciation period of only a few years. So all products had to me renewed every four years or so. This was to prevent costs of repair, but overall, failure of functionality. How often do you see a live tv show and one of the lightbulbs in the ceiling is finishing its lifetime? Never! So the industry standard in film and television is: it should not blow your production. In the ninetees companys like Ikegami (and presumably others but these companies affected me with this problem) used electronic parts which after years start leaking (chemicals) and damaged the circuit boards, making the expensive product useless. In those days we had to throw away the most expensive Betacam tape editing machines because their videoheads replacement became more expensive than buying a second hand machine. But that is another different story.
I hear you, I remember throwing out 2 Betacam SP playback machines that cost about $15k (second hand)! It cost a fortune to have the heads replaced and then years of library footage on Beta tapes became redundant.
Hi Grant thanks for the style and content .. of this video. Subscribed
Great video, I tried my best to follow along where I could however the title is misleading please change it to RX100 M4 or IV as I own the Sony RX100 I which this video title refers to! I can't be the only one who finds this annoying..
Hi Grant, I know this video is 5 years old, but do you happen to remember the name of this lodge?
I bought mine around 5 years ago. I've used it a handful of times. Today I brought it out of storage to compare the image quality to my iPhone.
Cool video! I was really hoping for the "Kiwi" shot though 😉
thank you!
Just bought my newest sony replacement. 38k plus accesories. Could have bought a Jaguar convertible for god sakes. But hey it can broadcast with cellular so i dont have to goto the studio ever again to dtop off footage. Nice vid
I reckon 35 is closer to the human eye - it gets wide enough to approach our peripheral awareness. And you have half a chance of getting a decent landscape or building shot (if you can move back) Its also tight enough to start delivering focus separation- especially with faster apertures. If i HAD to shoot with 1 lens - its 35 for me. Was in Queesntown / Wanaka / Milford Sound / Lake Te Anau last year - what a gift that place is to light and just the most beautiful colours and landscapes.
Well, it is a lie that camcorders disappear. Whoever says that has no idea that traditional video cameras are still widely used in the field of broadcast and television. Photographic cameras have many disadvantages compared to a professional video camera.
The hype for camera models comes and goes (unless you're talking top end Leica etc.). Generally, a few cool influencers (such as yourself!) can push the price of these up for the short term. In reality, like you were suggesting, point and shoot results can often be underwhelming. I carry a humble Ricoh R1 as a everyday PS, but if I'm on a serious mission, I'll use an all mechanical 35mm SLR.
Why dont they give you the negatives? The Scan can be poor and make the photos worse.
I remember selling these back in the day when I worked in photo retail. They were fantastic and if memory is right...sold for about $200-230 AUD.
Cool vid thanks Grant. I’ve still got my various film cameras from over the years. Still have a Canon AE1 so that must be pushing nearly 40 yrs I think. Hope you’re all well.
All good here thanks, hope all well up your way.
Got one of these in the cupboard too!
How many batteries did you go through that day?
Nicely done and fun to watch! How do you stabilize the camera on your bike?
The GoPro was just attached to a fixed mount on the handlebar stem of my bike.
Thanks for reminding that this beautiful camera
Minute 8:35 "Would you buy a traditional camcorder?" My answer would be a resounding yes, if new camcorders appeared with features in line with current times. New models hardly come out, and with worse features than previous models. Companies focus on releasing hybrid cameras. Greetings!
Garbage I disagree my camcorder can do much more than my iphone
Great review and camera. Also nice shots. Thank you!
That was good fun. Thank you! To me film somehow is better in conveying the feeling of the moment as you probably won't pixel peep but look at what is happening on the photo.
TY so much for this. You saved my butt!
I found this at a thrift store and it's been amazing camera to take on trips
The look of that film looks like my childhood
Ha! Back in the day, when I worked in a camera store, this was easily one of my best sellers!
kia ora mate
Did you just paraphrase the title from a 2019 video of another youtuber?😂😂😂
Surprisingly lovely images from such an old pocket compact. As you say, very filmic. It's nice to be reminded that there was something between phone cameras and DSLR's.
Good video Grant - thanks.
This walkthru is a masterpiece.
Tinha essas dúvidas nos anos 80... Hoje... Bom, ninguém mais assiste TV... Talvez baixe muito o preço...
hello, is tthat a wide angle lens attached to the PD100? Is the hood also came from the original PD100? thanks!
Yes it is a wide angle adapter and the lens hood came with it.
I was watching another tutorial and had to figure out the switching to camera mode, so it wouldn't be greyed out. Then I watched this video and was like "Man, I should have watched this one first." Thanks for the great video.
Guess what? I started my career working in a TV studio in 1982 in India on Image Orthicon cameras. It had different lenses mounted on a turret and the cameraman had to choose the right lens instantly and do the framing adjustments dollying in or out!! My journey still continues now using even the GoPros!!
such good techniques ! thanks!
