    Taking the leap without a backup plan echoes Nietzsche's notion of embracing uncertainty to forge one’s own path. Sometimes, true growth requires abandoning the safety net to discover our authentic selves and potential.

    Mixed emotions, bittersweet. Had me worried for a minute too! Loved the video, the update on your life and I hope you're enjoying the new space. - I got out and shot the establishing, medium, and details I commented I'd get out and do based on what you recommended. It was good, bad, and funny. I made some mistakes in the timeline of the sequences. Things coming out of the bag in the detail got used in the establishing shot. Things that I'd normally do in the medium shot I just did in a really weird way. I learned a lot. Still making progress in getting videos made. 5 down, 5 to go to hit my goal. Seeing you making this high quality stuff, and talk about your process is a joy. Looking forward to seeing more.

    agree on battery - man where does it evaporate to? That said, I had it in the bag to shoot my son's wedding - along with my full frame, mics, etc - he got married in the mountains of Colorado and the hike to the first looks was insane....having the tiny camera and being by myself was a must - running up and down trails to get shots of groom and bride as they approached each other. The footage cut in nicely throughout the video and my son and his wife love the images from the camera - that was all the review I needed.

Handles low light fairly well - great for the price I charge. I does nicely on a 20' painters pole for drone like shots on larger estates. I also use it in conjunction with the full frame camera to run it into running showers, sinks, tubs and swimming pools - motion into water with a scene transition coming out of another water item - like into the shower and out of the pool for example.

I'm in the process of starting a UA-cam journey and have planned out several dozen videos. I have filmed and edited the first two and I like my storytelling, but didn't like the quality of my video. Your content seems like a great place to see some unique takes on improving that aspect and I will be back for more. I want to have 10 videos completed by the end of September here, and the way you described "bulk batching" crystallized something I'd seen another creator do but hadn't been able to put into words.

    All creators need to factor in a 30-50% camera budget on accessories for their next camera pick. Between batteries, quick-release plates, tripods, etc., things can quickly add up while being necessary to capture the footage you need. Ace Pro is looking like another tempting accessory to add to the kit. Recently, I picked up a DJI X4 to capture more behind-the-scenes footage, but I think I would be more comfortable sticking it out of windows than the ACE Pro.

      That makes sense!!! And 30% is been generous lol. And the Action 4 is dope but it sounds like we need to have a comparision video.

    If you had it, what accessory are you getting for the Ace Pro? Or if you do have it, what did you pick or what are you thinking of picking up? 🤔

      Yeah the action 4 looks really good but I'm also tired of the go pros. But this camera is still a contender in my opinion

    : I've got few questions. 1: The battery issue was only when shot in 8k right? 2: Battery backup, if shot in 4k 60....? 3: If there an ace pro 2 or something from insta 360, coming out soon, as the next camera and shall I wait for it? Yes, we do need another vedio of accessories. 🙏

    • @DanielJMadden
      @DanielJMadden Місяць тому

      Yeah only in 8K but I have a back up on at all times just in case. However, battery does last longer in 4k 60 for sure. Insta360 is so ahead of the game in my opinion that you came get this or the Action 4 and both would have been great choices. Go Pro is not competing right now, respectfully.

      @@everongaming In my opinion, I would go ace over hero because I’m getting a bigger sensor and more megapixels. The image quality will be better. I believe the ace is downsampling from 6k vs the Hero’s 5.2K. Plus the Ace is cheaper, isn’t it?
