Setup + Test // Easy & Affordable Monitor, Transmitter System // SHIMBOL TP Mini + M5 Monitor

Let's put it to the test!! Does the monitor & transmitter work? I found this whole system surprising easy and 'turn key'. Can't wait to bring them into my shoots!! PS. I promise you that these "final photos" look totally fine as thumbnails, but yes, yes I needed more light to reduce to grain and fix the glare...I love a re-shoot, maybe when it's a bit cooler. ☠️ LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PRODUCTS: 📶...

    I have both and love my papershoot with the classic film filter card, it gives a dreamlike quality. But the user design drives me crazy -- its impossible to keep the camera board lint free and the shutter sound is obnoxious. And the lack of feedback on the shutter button sucks too.

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz 7 днів тому

      That's so interesting -- I've never had issues with link in the board, and I own a cat that gets hair on literally everything. But I have noticed that most of these cameras have a shutter sound to signal that the picture has been taken, which I do think is annoying and unnecessary. Hopefully both cameras will make improvements on the button press to actual picture capture while removing the sound.

I'm an indecisive photographer, and choosing what filter to have until the next time I download one is too much of a commitment. 😂

    Such a useful video thank you so much! I'm just starting out and lucky enough to be shooting some gigs on a tour soon. The venues are pretty small so will be quite close to the singer / band. So you recommend the fixed 50mm? I'm worried fixed won't give me options to change things up. Or do you recommend a smaller mm? I'll be touring with the artist possibly again end of November if all goes well and she'll be supporting a band at much larger venues so would need a second lens perhaps? Sorry for all the questions. Ps love your work :)

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz Місяць тому

      Thank you so much for watching & commenting - and your kind words!!! I worked with the 50mm 1.8 for roughly two years before I invested in other lenses. Having a prime forces you to really work on your eye/vision and getting creative with your images. It is definitely more difficult, but I recommend it due to it forces you to learn with a boundary. If you have a crop sensor camera, I actually love the 35 1.8 and that might be a better choice! Both are fairly low cost, so you could potentially get both and it gives you opportunity to switch. Depends on your budget, honestly!!

    Hi Boston, such a deadly video! My process is more or less the same. Some great tips. For bigger artists, the Mags I shoot for the comission editor requests the photo pass and this request goes direct to the promoter of the event or a press agent for the promoter of the event. Then, for smaller gigs I would would request my pass. You make a great point about including your editor in your email. Taking all your tips one step further is that the music industry is like a family, and you get known, and media contacts get to know you. You keep bumping into the same people again. So it's very important to be respectful at all times in getting your pass. Great video!

    • @BostonSchulz

Some are super small pubs and want to be the ones directly in contact and some want the photographers to reach out on their own. Right now, all of my "big" shows for my "big" publication - I do the requesting, funny enough. I LOVE your note about being respectful. 100%!! It's surprising how small the industry is, and how often I send requests to the same people or teams for different artists. Being respectful at all times is incredibly important to your career and how far you'll go in the industry, for sure. 📸✨

      If you're looking for an easy camera to have for photo & video, I would look into the Sony RX100 cameras.

But it also takes RAW photos and the video & sound from it has been impressive for what it is. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1496248-REG/sony_dscrx100m7_b_cyber_shot_dsc_rx100_vii_digital.html

    I'm so happy I came across your video, I was considering which one I should buy and your video really helped! I appreciate the photo comparisons and I like the look of the Camp Snap pictures better 😊 Also the fact that it's sturdier looking. Thank you for making this! 💕

    I have one now and I have it on my Nikon Z50 camera. I got it on eBay for $1600. I have to use a bipod because my hands are too weak. I’m very impressed with the quality of the pictures. Your pictures turned out great. ❤❤❤ I would very much to see more pictures like that in low lighting conditions. Thanks for sharing your photos and videos with us. ❤❤❤

      I'm happy you like yours!! I definitely like using a monopod with it -- but I'm happy that it is lightweight enough to hand hold...sometimes I'll rest myself on a fence or like the top of my car when I'm trying to photograph the moon, and that's easier than getting out my monopod/tripod. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 📸✨

      @BostonSchulz 2 місяці тому

      ISO of 8000 is totally fine. If your images look grainy and you want to reduce it, I swear that Lightroom's Denoise AI works wonders. But yes, these settings are just a "starting point" and you'll have to adjust for each unique setting, but they're what I recommend as a baseline. Your baseline is different than mine! I do get lucky with most of my venues.

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz 2 місяці тому

      Since you can't force settings for either of these cameras, I have a hard time recommending them for any night life photography. I find them blurry in concert settings (due to not being able to force a quick shutter speed) and since the CampSnap has a delayed flash vs sound / click, it's really hard to time out a shot of someone posing or doing any activity. I love using them for travels, but I rarely bring them out to concerts unless it's something outdoors / daytime. I'll keep testing cameras like this until I find my perfect favorite - but that's my notes about this for now!!

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz 2 місяці тому

      lol. I'm not gonna disagree with this statement. They're both really difficult in movement settings + low light.

    • @mackenziesalisbury5406

      I've found all these cameras (Flashback, Camp Snap and Paper Shoot) don't perform great in night photography including events. Their sensors are simply too small too capture enough light for a good quality photo. Flashback excels at close-up portraits and close-up action shots at night since the flash is an incredibly fast burst. Close-up subjects will be "frozen" against the background with minimal blur. (You can actually get some really cool effects from Flashback where the foreground is crisp because of the flash, and lights in the background blur or create trails).

    Hi! Are you familiar with Flashback? I'm really curious how they compare to the Camp Snap and the Paper Shoot 😊

    • @mackenziesalisbury5406
      @mackenziesalisbury5406 2 місяці тому

      Flashback is more of a traditional "film camera" experience: it winds up, only takes 27 pictures at a time and has a traditional bright Xenon flash. It's also a bit more tech-enabled since the photos transfer wireless to a mobile app and there has been some talk about a printing service built in to the app. There are new film types released via the app too. On the other hand, Camp Snap and Paper Shoot both use memory cards which means you can take a lot more photos if that's what you're after. Paper Shoot is the most expensive, while Camp Snap is the cheapest and Flashback is in the middle.

    • @BostonSchulz

      Hi! I looked into Flashback, but honestly, didn't want to jump on purchasing another camera at this moment. I do like the look of Flashback (with their flash, it seems like a more comfortable camera to shoot in numerous scenarios). I'm not sure I like the idea of having an app with the camera...but I do want to test it out. Did you wind up getting one?

    Will be cool to see how this works for you for sure!! I have a photo pit question for you and wanted to pick your brain about input on it. When finally getting the golden ticket "aka" photo pit pass for a concert and the artist rep says first 3 songs for all acts on the tour. Does that mean 3 songs in the pit for the headline artist, do those 3 songs include any opening acts or are they separate?

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz Місяць тому

      Great question! First 3 means first 3 songs for each band. That's pretty common for most artists! Sometimes you'll be able to photograph more songs, sometimes less songs, but normally first 3 for each band is standard!! Thanks for watching and commenting!! 📸✨

    This is such a great review of this lens, i saw it for sale for $30 on ebay and found your video through the research of why its so cheap. You convinced me to purchase it. You took amazing shots with it. My favorite lens thus far is the 45mm pancake. But my mission is to find the one that brings out the vision in my head if that makes sense. Great video

    • @BostonSchulz
      @BostonSchulz Місяць тому

      I still love this lens, and it's practically always on my Nikon film camera. I've never tried the 45mm pancake though...but I love your note about the "one that brings out the vision". I love just bringing one lens with me to shoots to challenge myself to work on my eye / vision / focus on what I want the image to portray. ✨
