      I'm watching in 1440p quality, because my monitor doesn't go up to 4K and rewinding and all that sort of jumping on the timeline is demanding and may cause a bit choppy video at times, but I can too already see a clear difference with the old camera and the new one. For example in the outro that clock on the wall had blurry numbers with the old camera. With the new one the numbers are visible and not blurry at all.
      The quality turned out to be great Sreten. The settings seemed to be correct on this video so keep up the good work my man. :D

    If you’d use a potato to film I would still watch it. You’re a great example that storytelling and what you film is more important then the camera you use. Bad audio would be a deal breaker. I’d rather watch a 480p video with great audio then 8k 60p video with terrible sound. Luckily audio is also pretty good with your videos.
    Enjoy the new camera. If you need anything or have any questions on video production or editing, you can always reach out.

      I really wanted to, but it's a lot of work on this car to the point that I don't have the desire to do it. Heating elements are sewn into the leather, and there's no way I'm gonna find used seats in this color, in good condition that have heaters. And frankly, would rather work on E31 than mess with that.

      @@M539Restorations What about a water parking heater, which warms up the interior (and thus seats), oil and engine using a little fuel burner? I really like the engineering of the newer Eberspächer Hydronic S3, as it FINALLY uses a brushless motor, and lasts thousands of hours, unlike the normal brushed ones, which fail a lot faster due to the (non-replacable) brusches wearing out. There are premade install kits available for most vehicles, so the install is usually close to factory-like. Also, a fuel burning water heater with multiple redundant safety systems approved by the TÜV is far less likely to cause a fire than a heater wire sewn into flammable seat cussions (as long as you properly screw the exhaust down and make sure it is far enough away from plastic parts, for which the same rules as for the engine exhaust apply). Though I would certainly not recomment those off-brand ones, as they often lack said safety systems, and can cause a fire, which, in my opinion, is really quite a good reason to spend a few hundred € more on a genuine Eberspächer or Webasto unit, although I currently like the Eberspächer S3 more because of its brushless fan.

    As a fellow automotive technician the highest complement I can give you is this:

    you gave that wheelbearing a real beating with removal/installing the driveshaft. i'm excited to see how it holds up/how many km's after that beating.

    • @M539Restorations
      @M539Restorations  2 роки тому +1

      Actually, the bearing itself didn't take any beating, the hub did and as it's pressed all the way in, there is no impact on the bearing.

      @@M539Restorations Is that true? The drive shaft is part of the rotational part of the bearing, and the wheelhub (not rotating) is what's pushing back when you hammer the center of the driveshaft.

    • @M539Restorations
      @M539Restorations  2 роки тому

      Of course, the wheel hub is one part with splines and goes through the bearing. It's seated fully in, so you are just hammer metal on metal. It can't go in any further than that. Also, destroying a wheel bearing isn't that easy anyway.

    Strange you didn't change the wheel bearings while doing this work. From my experience this makes a lot of difference.

    • @M539Restorations
      @M539Restorations  2 роки тому +2

      They rarely go bad so I didn't even think about it, but also, I didn't realize they come in a housing and are rather easy to replace as they just bolt up and there is no need to press anything in or out. Next time for sure!

    i think if a man drops 2500 euro on a camera for youtube, a little bit of feedback is the least i can give.
    the quality diffrence is immediatly noticable, especially in dynamic range. the video has so much more shadow, color, details in dark areas etc.
    but that also means that in a lot of scenes the bright areas, like the wall or your face in contrast to the car was wayyy to bright and oversaturated. also, with the afformentioned additon of shadow, the placement of your light matters a lot more since shadows are very much more visible now.
    And also, maybe its because of the new camera or because your roadtrip videos recieved so much positive feedback or because you are back home and excited to work on cars but your personality shines so bright in this video.
    little moments like waving "us" to come look at vapor blasting really show how confident you have grown to be infront of the camera. you explain everything so routined eventho you probably read it 2 days ago on page 33 of some forum and make it seem like you've been doing nothing else for the last 20 years.
    You are probably the least toxic youtuber that exists currently with the least toxic community as well. And the fact that literally every single one of your videos gains as much views as you have subs is a testiment of that. i know so many youtubers that get 10% of their subs clicking on a video, but channels where it's the other way around...? it's rare.
    This now got a bit off track but I guess the undertaking line is that your new camera is great and it improves your videos :D

      Thank you for the lovely comment! Indeed, I need to work on the lighting. The thing is, I always position it so you can see the background and the parts/what I'm doing clearly, but then I walk into the shot, and it messes up the balance. And since there's no one behind the camera, it's difficult to catch it. It's much more comfortable to work in your own shop, relaxed, no need to rush and I have to think before I talk and explain better :)
