I understand that it could be a creative choice to expose a lot of light in your studio. But I can say for most that it’s not what a lot of people would call a cinematically pleasing video. Thanks for your video tho. You made some good points.
Thank you for your comments! My focus was mainly on making the montage as cinematic as I could. I’m still trying to find a set up for my studio shots and haven’t settled on what I like yet. Next video might be a dark studio🤣🤣
Hey! Was just wondering if you had a chance to give my new video ‘Photography Basics in 10 Minutes’ a quick look? Would appreciate your thoughts on the lighting in the studio? My own opinion is I need to diffuse the key light a bit more but I felt it was a step in the right direction!😊🏴
Loved the video and thank you for taking the time to make this, and for the helpful tips. I’m a “newbie” but recently purchased the Osmo Pocket 3 and have no clue how to use it yet but I’m excited to learn. Happy New Year!
Watch some videos on UA-cam and then just get out and try!! It’s a truly fun learning experience and your imagination is the only limit!! Thanks for watching!!🤗🤗🏴🏴🏴
I didn't have high hopes for the footage because you are sitting in your over saturated yellow-red room, but it turns out the footage was really beautiful! Why the washed out yellow & red in your room?
Hey Ficktao! Thank you for your honest and kind comments!! I’m glad you liked the footage!!😁 I’m still messing about with the studio at home and can’t find a place with enough space to set it up the way I would like. This was an experiment in trying to use a brighter set but I am not keen on it either. Will probably see a different, darker set if you stick around for a future video? Would love your feedback again my friend! 😊🏴
Thanks Mike! 🤗 I’m currently using a GoPro window mount and I HATE it!! It just never seems to want to point in the right direction. Why they never made it with a ball head will forever perplex me!!! I’ve bought a small rig extension arm and clamp which I am hoping will be better!!!🤣🤣😳🏴
When im filming in a car driving in a curve to the left the gimal goes to the right in all settings even when locking gimbal by holding joystick pressed down. And the opisit curve to the left. Should it be like this or and how do you getting it to lock or follow the road?
I have had similar problems but the best workaround I’ve found is to set the gimbal to tilt-locked, change the focus mode to single and then tap to focus on the middle of the road. It still moves a bit, but not as bad. I’m fairly sure DJI will release a firmware update to add a fixed mode! 😊😊😊🏴
Cracking wee informative video almost making me want to part with some pennies and upgrade to the osmo 3, not sure the wife would appreciate it tho lol
You didn’t sound like that at all J!😊 I’m still getting to grips with FPS and having to use ND filters to keep the exposure down! My earlier drone footage was sometimes shot at north of 2000 fps and that’s when I first noticed it! I definitely prefer doing UA-cam at 30 fps, probably because the math is easier compared to 24 fps eg 30, 60, 90 and 120!!😂😂😂 Good to hear from you again!🏴🤗
holy crap my man. You talk about cinematic look when your color grading look like this? You have to calibrate those monitors because my eyes are bleeding now.
start with your skin tone in the vid, its blowing up. highly saturated and digitally over exposed. don't you agree? of course you can call it a creative choice but you mentioned cinematic and even tho that's a vague term this grading is not that.@@davidmuirphotography
Is this for both parts? Studio and outside? I know my studio lighting was very harsh and I was trying something new. Didn’t like it and my video I posted a day or so ago went the other direction. Perhaps TOO far the other way!🤣 I’ll not pretend to be good at grading and in fact I find it quite difficult. It’s something I want to focus on more but I’ve been spending a lot of time on fps, shutter speed, etc. I’m a stills photographer by nature and just starting to learn all the nuances of video and cinematography. That said, I am absolutely loving the journey and to my eye, each one gets a little better! Really appreciate your comments!
@davidmuirphotography yeah I mean it's a fun thing to have but it's not something I'd consider to be professional. More like a fun movie camera on a trip. Better than a phone for sure.
I think for my style of videos it’s perfect. I use my Canon R5 for shots I want to be extra special and the DJI Air 3 does a great job too! Mixed together they look great. I got the new iPhone 14 Pro Max but it seems like a faff to use properly. I do t know if it’s just me but mobile phone cameras just don’t immerse me in the moment and I don’t feel like I’m truly shooting proper video. Does that make sense?😊🏴
@davidmuirphotography yeah mobile cameras just don't quite cut it. The footage looks good on a phone but when you bring it to a computer to edit the footage, it looks awful
Thanks Marty! Still working out the lighting kinks in my home studio. Will definitely be darker in the next video!! Hope you stick around and can let me know if it gets better!😊🏴
The studio parts were definitely too bright my friend! Was trying something a little different and it definitely didn’t pay off!! I’m much happier with the newer lighting as seen in my newest video!!🤗🏴
Sorry but the dynamic range out of the d-log is rubbish, with normal color profile it works way better, tested and proven, not sure why all UA-camr say the same statement
Hey!!! Thanks for the comment my friend. Normal colour profile definitely looks better straight out of camera but my understanding is that there is less flexibility and the image can fall apart when you start to edit it and play around with shadows, highlights and colours. Because the normal profile has the colour baked in, it limits your possibilities to create your own personalised look. I am however intrigued by your comment and think I will try shooting a video in the normal colour profile to see what I can achieve! Have a great weekend and thanks for reaching out!! 🤗🏴
@@davidmuirphotography your shots look amazing, it’s just the high fps gives it such a digital look. But that’s preference. I didn’t mean to sound like an ass!
You definitely didnt sound like an ass and I have changed to 30fps in my last 2 videos and I’ve really noticed the difference so thank you my friend!!😊🏴
@@davidmuirphotography Haha, awesome man! You have wonderful shots, just anything I see in a high frame rate looks very digital to me. But it’s all subjective!
Another great video. Brilliant scenery ! Thank you !
Thanks Keith!!!
You are sooo welcome!! I hope you have a fantastic weekend!🤗🏴
Thanks for your approach on the Osmo - and greetings to beautiful Scotland.
You’re so welcome!!😁😁
Glad you enjoyed it!🏴🏴😊
Excellent video and very informative.
Thank you kindly Eddie!! That’s truly appreciated!🏴🏴🤗

@@davidmuirphotography the new lighting is much better! Not a fan of the 2 Colors though, but that's just me. Exposure wise it's perfect
@@JohnnyBoy-mt1lj thank you! I’m curious. Was it the choice of two colours or just having two colours?🤣🤣

Another great video David, just out of interest what sort of mount are you using for the Osmo Pocket in your car?
Thanks Mike! 🤗

I think it’s normal because the gimbal uses a sort of gyroscope and I guess because of the G-Forces it tries to counteract these
Thanks. Sure hope so.
@@laurentschauls They did not updated it in last firmware. Going to sell my pocket 3 sadly.
@@yamahaevoSad to hear that, otherwise a great little camera
😍

That’s a tricky one Scott!! What’s that old saying? It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission!😂😂😂😂🏴🏴
@@davidmuirphotography I shall just tell her this is what David said I was to tell you lol
How did you get on with that?🤣🤣🤣
@@davidmuirphotography I get to see the daylight for 1 hour per day. Im beginning to adapt to living in the closet lol

Can you give a little more context my friend? I would be interested in what your opinion is and I’m always looking to improve.😊🏴

You are over exposed

Its a bit too bright here imo..

Lol because camera conspiracies said? Almost word for word 😆 COLOUR GRADE. How hard is it
All these videos on here at a high fps. It doesn’t look cinematic at all.
Hi Jeff! FPS was either 30 or 60 and shutter was twice that at 60 or 120. I use 30 fps for my UA-cam videos as I prefer the look to 24 fps.
@@davidmuirphotography your shots look amazing, it’s just the high fps gives it such a digital look. But that’s preference. I didn’t mean to sound like an ass!
