totally agree, haha 1080 for the kids, 4K for that epic view! plus, when they get older, they will get to see the view they saw but don't remember. No point reminding them they got less cute as they got older.
Even now, 2 years later, this video is super helpful to me. Thank you! I was intimidated by all those other 'how to start into videography' videos but yours encourages me to just do it.
Omar is psychic. I was just thinking of what video settings do I need if I'm just on holiday and I want to shoot casual video. And Omar answers. Thanks for the tips!
Omar: For someone who has an XT-3 and still has little clue as to how to use the multiple settings available your approach is really helpful. Thanks for the info!!!
I am about to enter the Fuji family by buying a Fuji XS10 for my birthday. I remember watching you from your XT-20 days (even as a Panasonic guy) and loved the education I got for Fuji cameras and also your levity that made your videos fun to watch. Seems you have greatly advanced your knowledge over the years so will definitely continue to watch. Thanks for your contributions!
Omar..you are the reason why i have become a photographer... Thanks for everything that u have been taught to us with very informative and funny way...I am sure there are lots of photographers who could shoot better pics than you but i have doubt that anyone could make a funny, informative and interesting video like u. Please keep up with ur good work and would like to buy some of ur merchandise.. Let me know if u have either online stores or web that I could buy and support your channel.
That was so good. For some reason, probably because I hadn’t a scoob about what I was going, have actively shied away from trying out video on my XT-2 and used copped out with my iPhone. Feel suitably confident about giving it a try this Bank Holiday weekend and just see what happens. That was so useful. Thanks Omar
Great practical information for us video "newbies". I want to focus on shooting more casual video, both on my X-T4 and my iPhone, but some of the info I have sourced can become quite frustrating. Using VND filters to help slow the shutter speed is great on a Fuji camera, but trying to do so on an iPhone, while keeping the weight low enough to not over-tax a gimbal's motors is a chore. Thanks for helping to change my thinking from "video excellence" to "video enjoyment".
Omar has an older video about video diaries that explains what he does. It was one of the first videos that I watched of his. It's a great idea for documenting your family without having to give all of your time to video.
Holly sh@t! Where was you hiking? That’s some epic scenery - whoah! Like the video. Super interesting about the 1080p vs 4k file sizes. Had never heard nor thought about that before 👍
Thanks Omar, that's a really useful video. I've been wondering what video settings to use on my XT30 as there are so many on the camera. When I used a camcorder I didn't even think about changing anything and was happy enough with the results on holidays. I'll give your advice a go and if the results are as good as yours then that's good enough for me.
Great tips Omar. I would add, as far as autofocus goes, just use typical Area AF-C and put your subject in the box. If it’s hunting because of low light or challenging conditions, switch it to AF-S and half-press the shutter to focus as needed during recording and it won’t hunt in-between.
Very useful thanks. I’ve been asked to do some casual photography at a wedding (not the official photos!) and I’d like to get some video clips too. As I usually shoot aperture priority for photography I feel happy that I can do the same for the video and not confuse myself switching too and fro! I should definitely practice first though!
Very informative . I don’t bother with video as I prefer photos . However, you have made me want to play with video once in a while and although I can see a
Place for video, your video has inspired me to give it a go. You see, i know there will come a time when I will want to do it ; rare as that might be, so thanks once again Omar
Good advice....I always stress about audio when filming family/kid....still haven't found a realistic solution. External mics are such a pain, but internal mics sound so bad (also I have no clue how to process audio).
Aaaah, the “famous” exposure change stutter plague that affects all fujifilm cameras 😬 wonder how to get rid of it. Also, I miss having the all auto switch on my X-T3 :/
It's such a shame there are no fuji prime lenses with stabilization! If you're like me with a body without IBS you're in trouble hehe. I'd love a stabilized 23mm (35mm full frame equivalent) lens for videography.
Ok, set up per instructions. Check. Take some vids. Check. Hold camera steady? And keep subject in frame? Ha, was that even in the instructions? Took 4 vids of less than a min each. Last one is actually ok. In a very non cinematic way. Imported to LR to view. BUT What now Coach???? Need an OMAR vid stat on what to do next!
What?! Auto mode?! You're insane Omar. Everybody should set their video settings manually!! :') All jokes aside, nice video. I totally agree about it's important what you shoot, not how:)
So the lowest 4k setting is the 100? nothing closer to the 50mbps of the 1080p? Just curious because sd cards get more expensive and less reliable at higher bitrates right?
Hi Omar ! Thx for the video. Is it possible to take a photo while making a little video ? For example I would like to take really short videos to make reels on Instagram without having to take my IPhone ton shot it before I take my camera for the shot I want. Just trying to adapt my work in the easiest way ^^
I'm really tmepted to buy the Fuji XT-20. The prices have gone down quite a bit since the release of the XT-30 How do you find the photo quality of the camera?
Hi! Gud day! Im a vlogger from the phillipines and I'm using FUJIFILM XT 100. I notice that everytime i record vlog and my camera is on a tripod, whenever i move closer to the cam, it seems like the video is moving (floating) and whenever i distant myself to the cam, it gets back to normal (still video). I wonder if you could help me out with this one and whats causing it to float? Really looking forward to get an answer. Thanks brother Omar. Keep Safe and have a nice day. :)
Would you recommend shooting at F2.8 on Fuji 16-55 or is F2 much better on 16 1.4 lense. I am thinking if its redundant to have both at 16mm even though 16mm 1.4 has macro capability.
Hi! New subber here! Please help me! I have a Fujifilm xt30 and tried to record myself playing piano and it kept trying to focus/re-focus from my body moving and my hands moving! The entire recording was the camera trying to keep focus. I don’t remember what setting I had it on. Any direct advice for setting? Please and thank you!

The first video I tried recording with my xt-20 was 4k and I had to upgrade my computer in order to view it. 😂
damn, happen to me aswell. my 2013 mac couldnot handle my 4k footage
Those videos are the sweetest. Very heart warming.
Omar. Thankyou. The best video beginners guide IN THE WORLD.
Omar is psychic. I was just thinking of what video settings do I need if I'm just on holiday and I want to shoot casual video. And Omar answers. Thanks for the tips!
That family footage was so precious, you seem like such a playful and good dad
Great video for me Omar, I use my Fujifilm for photography and not video !! This will help me when I go video !! 👏👏👏
A dad giving great advice for us dads; lol
Thanks
I bought a used xt20 last year because of you. I've been using it for 6months, I love taking photos with it.
Fantastic presentation. Finally there is practical information that we non professional can actually use :)
your so sympathetic mate - also appreciate the substance.

Exactly what I needed since I am trying more and more with short Movie clips on my Fuji. Thank you :)
what i gathered from what you said about 4k is that you might as well shoot in 4k. storage is not very expensive...
Omarrrrrrrr ... Thank you very much!!!! Very helpful 🎉🎉🎉🎉.
Super like this simplified video settings. I just bought my XT-4 and this is certainly helpful for me. Thank you, sir!
Omar..you are the reason why i have become a photographer...

It’s an enjoyable experience just watching your vids. Thanks and hope you and family stay safe
"The kids don't matter, you can shoot them at 1080p" this should be the title of this video. Thanks!
thank you for this! i’m really new to this and i couldn’t understand the other videos about this.
Thank you! This was exactly the kind of video I was looking for!
The fog cutting thru the golden gate 😍 did u also take a still? That woulda been awesome
This is so useful. Thank you ❤
Omar, you're like the Jim Carrey of camera videos, your mannerisms and facial expressions bring a lot of fun in watching your videos, love it!
As always, thank you, Omar!
Thanks, Omar. I heard my XT-3 did video but I wasn't sure.
Whenever I visit your channel, I learn something .. in a funnier way. Great video as usual. 👍
That was so good. For some reason, probably because I hadn’t a scoob about what I was going, have actively shied away from trying out video on my XT-2 and used copped out with my iPhone. Feel suitably confident about giving it a try this Bank Holiday weekend and just see what happens. That was so useful. Thanks Omar
Great video. So practical, so apt. Just what I needed, just as I am thinking about doing some video with my xe3.
Thanks, Omar! These tips really help! 👍🏻
Insanely helpful and super appreciated Omar!!!

This was helpful for a beginner like myself!
Excellent advice for the uninitiated. Next question: What to do with the video clips? Editing for dummies?
Drag all the clips into iMovie and export!! “San Francisco 2017”
Omar has an older video about video diaries that explains what he does. It was one of the first videos that I watched of his. It's a great idea for documenting your family without having to give all of your time to video.
@@ogonzilla That would probably work if I owned any Apple products, but I don't.
This is such a good Video ! Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Nice video! Pls make more such videos for us non-videographer daddies who would like to create good home videos 😄
Another quality video,with real world advice.
Thanks Omar!
Best tipps, Omar!
Always non-academic, but for life ☺️
thx for 👍
Thanks. Never shoot video. But you helped to reduced my how to for video from 10 pages to 8 pages of instructions
Thanks. If I ever break bad, I'll remember this.
not related question, where is the location at 3:58? that looks amazing
Holly sh@t! Where was you hiking? That’s some epic scenery - whoah! Like the video. Super interesting about the 1080p vs 4k file sizes. Had never heard nor thought about that before 👍
Useful info, thanks - would have been good to see how the various settings you mention are actually set up in the menus though
Love this video, you should do more in videography, simple and hands on. Thanks for the entertaining and helpful piece 👍
Thanks Omar, that's a really useful video. I've been wondering what video settings to use on my XT30 as there are so many on the camera. When I used a camcorder I didn't even think about changing anything and was happy enough with the results on holidays. I'll give your advice a go and if the results are as good as yours then that's good enough for me.
That was most helpful, thanks a lot!
How come nobody commented about the shot at 3:54? IT'S INSANELY GOOD! WOW! 😮
Great tips Omar. I would add, as far as autofocus goes, just use typical Area AF-C and put your subject in the box. If it’s hunting because of low light or challenging conditions, switch it to AF-S and half-press the shutter to focus as needed during recording and it won’t hunt in-between.

Thanks Omar. Great tips. Sweet memories too 👍
como siempre, muy buenos consejos..gracias Omar
Great advice as always. Thanks!
This video is very helpfull !! Thank you so much 🙏🏼 👍🏼
thank you so much, just needed basic stuff .
Best video settings for non videographers = OFF 😂
I love to do slow motion video clips of wildlife on my XT-2 at 4K. Superb! I am only an amateur though.
Great tutorial for video idiots like me. How about a follow up on focus settings for video virgins. Great work Omar.
Full auto turns on continuous AF. Otherwise, use face detection if your camera has it. If not, a ZONE in continuous should do the job.
Great video
Very informative . I don’t bother with video as I prefer photos . However, you have made me want to play with video once in a while and although I can see a
Place for video, your video has inspired me to give it a go. You see, i know there will come a time when I will want to do it ; rare as that might be, so thanks once again Omar
Lets go notification gang!!! Thanks omar for good content! 😄🤙
Great video as a start but would haved love to hear more settings like Autofocus dr-range and so on
I still shoot 720p with my xt20. Not much difference with 1080p when watching on your phone, specially most of the viewers are using their phones. 😁
Next release XT5 or XH2 or XT40?
Hi Omar...I think you want to say videographer and not video-ographer. 🤓 ...and thanks a lot for your advice!
Omar : "just shoot full auto I dont care"
I didn't even know Fuji cameras can do video ! 📸
Good advice....I always stress about audio when filming family/kid....still haven't found a realistic solution. External mics are such a pain, but internal mics sound so bad (also I have no clue how to process audio).
Nice beard, nice video!
Aaaah, the “famous” exposure change stutter plague that affects all fujifilm cameras 😬 wonder how to get rid of it. Also, I miss having the all auto switch on my X-T3 :/
Manual exposure really the only way.
I feel like a lot of it has been cleaned up in the newer cameras and via firmware (x-trans iv cameras specifically).
Thanks!
It's such a shame there are no fuji prime lenses with stabilization! If you're like me with a body without IBS you're in trouble hehe. I'd love a stabilized 23mm (35mm full frame equivalent) lens for videography.

well said
Please share you fuji cam settings for photos like portrait.
Where you carrying the camera hand held on the footage in San Francisco?
video / photo composition before setting
Did you use any ND filters for shooting videos here!!?
So the lowest 4k setting is the 100? nothing closer to the 50mbps of the 1080p? Just curious because sd cards get more expensive and less reliable at higher bitrates right?
My XT2 is very sad now. Never made a video. The closest to video he ever got is on CH.
Hi Omar !
Thx for the video.
Is it possible to take a photo while making a little video ?
For example I would like to take really short videos to make reels on Instagram without having to take my IPhone ton shot it before I take my camera for the shot I want. Just trying to adapt my work in the easiest way ^^
You are DA MAN!
Cool vid!
I'm really tmepted to buy the Fuji XT-20. The prices have gone down quite a bit since the release of the XT-30
How do you find the photo quality of the camera?
it's the best IMO...over the XT30. I'd say the XT30's photos are more sharp and color accurate, but the XT20's POP!
How to avoid the exposure auto compensation? help pls
Hi! Gud day! Im a vlogger from the phillipines and I'm using FUJIFILM XT 100.

The entire recording was the camera trying to keep focus. I don’t remember what setting I had it on. Any direct advice for setting? Please and thank you!
Would be nice settings were it not for constant exposure changes, which make it not very well usable in anything other than home videos.
was akl of this done handheld?( the video in the beginning)
Uff, I got the 4k in movie mode at 29.9p no idea how to get 8 bit, 100mbps and -1 and - 2. Coudl you help? Sorry maybe I am upsetting you
3:55 shut the front door! I need to get there......
In next live i wanna be your kid🤣
Xt20 or xt200 for hybrid use....??
any way to apply recipes to movie mode ?
