In a UA-cam realm beyond oversaturated with photography channels, yours really is the best, man. Absolutely appreciate the heck out of you guys taking the time and effort to share it with us all!
Wow, can't tell you how much that means to hear. Really thankful for your support and encouragement! We appreciate you!
Those b roll shots are money! That pocket 3 definitely is underrated!
Thanks! It’s such a solid piece of kit. Makes everything so simple.
More pocket footage videos like this please!!!! The video quality is actually insane for how small the Osmo is. Your channel is so underrated Dylan, can't wait for future content :)
Really appreciate that! Much more on the way for ya soon! 🤘
Wow, the Osmo is killer! Been so stoked for this video, Dylan- your vids always intensify my spark for photography! I read you’ve got a lot of videos in the works (hell yeah), and as I’m dipping my toes into videography a lot more as of late, I sure would love a more in-depth view of your approach to color grading at some point if you ever feel inspired to!
It’s so good and practical for stuff like this! Really thankful for your ongoing support and encouragement. I won’t let you down! Also, totally noted. It’s such a hard thing to present to others outside of like a classroom environment…trying to figure out the best way to put something together soon. 👍
@@DylanSpitz Totally get it! And as I know you’ve mentioned before in your Q&A, not having a “one-trick” approach to the process adds another dimension of difficulty in terms of teaching it. As always, I really appreciate your openness and how genuinely you care for your community 🙂
Means a lot! Thanks for being here 👊
Alright, what do I gotta do to get you posting more content like this?! Amazing photo and video !
Haha, your support is all I can ask for! I appreciate you watching and for the kind words, means a lot 🫶. (Also, more videos than ever are in the works right now…your boi has been GOING AFTER IT)
@@DylanSpitzthis is the greatest news I’ve heard all week.
Haha thank you for the support! ❤️
Another masterclass in composition and color grading on both cameras. This was a great watch. This is also still one of my favorite office setups too
You are too kind, my friend! Really happy you enjoyed it. Appreciate the compliment about the office, too 🤘
I was on the verge of buying the presets and the first photo you posted from this trip on your instagram made me pull the trigger! Beautiful photos!
Haha that is awesome! Thanks for the support, I hope you love them! Make sure to send me some stuff you’re making with them, I always enjoy seeing that. 🤘
Which filter are you using on the pocket 3? The footage looks great!
Also any specific settings you’ve changed on the P3? Are you manual all the way or auto for flexibility? Thanks! Loved the vid.
Just D-Log M in manual mode for exposure. Used a VND from K&F but I had super strong color shifts and dark corners so I have since swapped to their solid ND set. Full gear list is linked in the description if you’re interested as well. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video!
Luts for videos ?? How did you color grade the Osmo pocket 3???
I'll release some for sure, they just need to be absolutely dialed before that happens, and I have a lot of figuring out to do to make the release be the way I have in mind. It will be worth it though, I promise. I just grade everything in resolve using curves, primaries, etc.
@@DylanSpitz thanks for the reply. Great work bought your prestes in the mean time :)
Oh, awesome! Thanks for the support, I hope you love them! (Don’t forget to dive through the guides, some good workflow stuff in there)
Amazing footage and shots! Ive driven the roads along the Columbia River so many times from PDX to Northern Idaho, and it’s always breathtaking. Thanks for the reminder! 🤙🏼
Very cool! Thanks so much for the compliments 🙏 Appreciate you watching!
Fantastic video, storytelling, and imagery, Dylan!
I did a trip over the summer with just my Pocket 3 and an older Fuji XT20 + 27mm lens. It was so freeing to travel light and have certain "limitations" that I had to work around creatively (rather than having a pelican case filled with every option that I could need).
I did add a Ricoh GRIIIX to my kit when I got back and my other Fuji cameras gets reserved for client work only these days :)
Again, great video!
Thank you so much! That’s very kind of you. Cool little combo you’ve got yourself there, sounds great! I agree - I don’t miss the days of hauling a 45lb camera bag around 😂. Have fun out there 🤘
UA-cam algorithm brought me to your beautiful video! Could you share how you color grade the Pocket footages? Also, did you shoot in D-log M?
Hey there! Thanks for watching and for the compliment. I shot in D-Log M and graded the footage in davinci resolve using pretty basic tools like primaries, curves, etc. 👍
@@DylanSpitz Thank you!
UA-cam has been on a roll lately with their recommendations. They recommend your channel and I’m glad they did! Love your creative style and your storytelling!
Awesome! Thank you for taking the time to watch, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Beautifully done Dylan, just saw your work on instagram as well
Hey, thanks Preet! Really appreciate that. 🫶
Absolutely breathtaking! Mt Rainer is definitely on my bucketlist now. These edits are just gorgeous, could you share your editing workflow of some shots in this video?
It’s a stunning place! Thank you so much. I used my DS 01 preset system for all of them. Most of the time just adjusting exposure and white balance before when needed and then adding creative touches after with the color grading panel and some local adjustments. 🤘
As a western WA local, it’s always seeing and hearing the different views and thoughts from others, along with fellow photographers. Subbed, can’t wait to see more 🤟🏽
Oh nice! Thanks for the support, dude. 🤘
another absolute banger video i was able to watch between classes. your ability to pivot and utilize the circumstances is part of what makes your style refreshing and your storytelling interesting. excited for future videos! cheers;)
Thank you so much! Stoked you enjoyed it, it was definitely a different trip than I was imagining but it’s all good! 😅
Think this is my favourite Chanel I've stumbled on in a while. Amazing cinematic footage and beautiful photos
Wow, thank you! That makes me happy to hear. Cheers!
You are easily my favorite photographer/videographer on here. Everything you make is so dang cinematic! I just shoot photos for fun, but you always inspire me!
Aw shucks, thanks so much! So encouraging to hear that, I’m very happy to have you here 🤘🥹
Is all video taken with the pocket 3 in the sequence or any video clips with the X100VI dropped in?
It’s about 75/25 - 25% on the Fuji 🤘
this looked all magical to me. Last year I've been to Sunrise and was happy to see familiar places in these shots, foggy this time. Thank you, guys.
Thank you! Oh nice, it’s so beautiful up there. Appreciate you watching 🙏
Brother what camera is best for both video and Photography under 2k-2.5k.
That is a LOADED question, haha. I mean so many factors can go into that - but some to look into would be the A7IV, X-T5 and XH2S...I'm sure there are a million more but those jump out as some picks for me.
Bro give me the Osmo Pocket 3 lut please 😂 stunning Colors i often fail to recreate the Photo Look for my videos
Hahaha! When I make it I promise I’ll let you know. 🤪
Loved the more casual approach to it! Got me itching to do more on my M10 and OP3 now!
Thanks so much! Yessss, do it 🤘
first! dude, you still film on xt5?
Woohoo! Thanks for tuning in. This was all on the X100VI and the Pocket 3, but the XT5 is killer. For work stuff I'm still rocking the A7SIII!
@@DylanSpitz see i was sure that video was shit on A7SIII
You just keep making the most visually pleasing stuff on UA-cam. Thank you!
I appreciate that so much! 🥹
The footage and colors are out of this world. Subbed!
Thanks so much!
@@DylanSpitz you are welcome, keep going! I can't wait to see how you shoot and grade your footage
Just casually watching your videos while Hurricane Helene rips through our town in North Central Florida. Love your content!
Stay safe down there! 🫶
@@DylanSpitz thanks! Power is out, it’s hot as balls and crazy windy but we’re fine.
Ciao - great video. What camera and lens was Jillian using?
Thank ya! She was using a canon rebel 2000 with a canon 40mm 2.8 pancake lens
I'm now torn between the Pocket 3 and Osmo Action 5.
Uh oh 🤪
Beautiful as always! Just got my x100vi, coming from Sony, i wounder, how do you expose Flog2?
Hey, thanks! I don't expose the full 1-2 stops over like I do on the sony, but I do give myself a little margin for error with the shadows because they get muddy fast on the smaller sensor cameras.
@@DylanSpitz Big thanks for your answer! Keep up the great work!
Those photos are inspiring 😮… 10/10
Thanks so much for that! Glad you liked them 🫶
Wow. Is all of the video shot on the Pocket 3??
About 75% or so, yeah! The rest of the shots on the X100VI.
Everything was so beautiful even if it didn't turn out as you expected! Really valuable hearing your lessons learned, I appreciated the honesty haha
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Overall, definitely a fun and pretty successful photo trip, even if it didn't feel like it in the moment so much. I've gotta be better at keeping a positive outlook out there! Thanks for the kind words.
Love the colour grading on this. I’ve been really thinking about picking up the pocket 3 but this may have convinced me. Was it difficult to grade and would you recommend this over shooting with an iPhone 16
Hey, thanks! Glad you like it. It's actually pretty easy to grade - not quite as flat as other Log profiles out there. I haven't used the iPhone 16 yet, so it's hard to say...but the sensor on the pocket is impressive - pair that with the DJI wireless mic sync with the creator combo and I think it's probably a far more capable system than a phone.
Beautiful video, always enjoy your footage, the images and music! I totally understand you want to get some sweet sunrise light in that park but I get extremely excited anytime there’s fog! It’s got so much atmosphere (pun intended) but seriously…fog gives such depth and mystery to images, I love it! Looks like some prime fog + light that one morning too. People dream about getting those conditions.
Ah, thank you! I'm really glad you enjoy it. Oh, totally understand about the fog! I love it a lot of the time, too. It's only when I preconceive what I want and drive 9 hours to get skunked that I get a bit grumpy about it being there for two days straight 😂. That morning light on the hike when it started breaking apart made it all worth it though. Absolute dream conditions!
Dude your photos are so good. The colors too!
Thanks a ton! I really appreciate that. 🙏
Absolutely love this video! 🔥🫶🏼 love the bts Jillian captured as well of you explaining what you’re shooting! Seeing the master at work hahaha😂 keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to your next adventures! 👏🏼
Dude thank you so much! Hahaha I'm no master, but I'm glad you enjoyed me putting my awkward camera-shy self on the screen in this one. I'll try to be better about that! Tons of new stuff on the way!
What camera & lens is being used for the talking portions? Both at your desk and in the park like at 4:11
Hey there! In the park it was the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. In my home office it's my trusty old A7Siii with a 16-35mm at 35mm. Although, I have used the X100VI for that in the past as well (because it's also a 35mm equivalent) - specifically in my two month review video a few months back.
@@DylanSpitzshooting d-log 4k24? Your grading is 🔥 I know the moody lighting in the park helps but it’s the best footage I’ve seen from the pocket
Yup, you got it! Really appreciate that - excited to use it more in the next few videos.
It’s refreshing watching your amazing videos. Carl was missed but hey rules are rules 😔🤷🏾
Ahh, thanks so much for that, I'm really happy you enjoyed it. I knowwww we missed his goofy presence but don't worry, he'll be back in the next one 😅
Heavy fog IS good light!
Haha it can be for sure!
Awesome video man! Loved seeing this video footage come from that camera. Was your interview setup shot on the x100Vi also?
Also how do you find switching from video to photo mode - have you mapped a hot key or do you just do it via the drive menu? Great work. New subscriber here!
Thanks so much! The interview setup is just my ol a7siii. Although I have used the X100VI for that in the past (my two month review video). I just use the drive mode button 🤘
The vibes were immaculate!! Your videos make me feel inspired to create 📷. Also on the topic of permits and rules in the national parks it seems like a bit of the Wild West. I always try to follow them as closely as possible, but some people I encounter are breaking pretty much all of them haha. Disheartening to see.
Immaculate vibes is all I can ask for, haha! Thanks so much, dude. Also, yeah - it's extremely confusing and people will always be...people.
What ratio did you shoot this on?
B-roll is 2.4:1 🤘
Oh man this is your best work yet. Killlled this one. Footage looks epic.
Wow, thank you so much! That’s incredible feedback to get. Appreciate you taking the time to watch 🫶
14:00 KILLER SHOT! 🔥🔥
She nailed that one! 💥💥💥
i'd take the ricoh griiix instead
That would be great too!
your channel just came up on my home page, subscribed, and love the content
Woohoo! Thanks so much for the support, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Nice vibe!
What's the workflow switching between video and photo? Do you adjust shutter speed to 1/48 every time?
Thank you! There’s a menu setting to keep the video settings from changing when you go back and forth between photos/video drive modes. So you just switch drive modes and it’s back on 1/48 already 👊
@@DylanSpitz Do you know what its called/where its located? Trying to find it on my X-T3
Amazing as always and I'm very excited to hear there are more videos in the works!
Thank you so much for tuning in again! Yesss, I'm so excited by how many are coming up...loads of work in the editing room now 😅
Love the videos and your work man!!
Means so much to hear that, thank you!
I like your videos, your travelling journey. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch. 🤘
Anazing video Dylan, love from Fiji.
Very kind of you, thanks!
what filter did you use in your dji pocket 3?
I was using a K&F VND but it actually had really bad color shifting and vignetting in the corners so I swapped them for the solid NDs. Full gear list is on my site at the link in the description if you’re interested 👍
Thank you
Of course!
The DJI color grading is insanely good !
Thank you so much!
Hey Dylan, again I am blown away from color grading your video footage 😍 really all shot just with the Pocket 3? Did you use extra pro-mist filter etc for the Pocket 3?
Thanks a lot in advance! :)
Ah shucks, thanks so much! I'm really happy you liked it. 80% of it was the pocket, with a handful of clips from the X100VI in the mix. We had a little variable ND with mist built in on the pocket, but there were some annoying color shifts happening in the corners so I won't be using it moving forward, just solid NDs from now on lol.
@@DylanSpitz Thanks for the quick reply :) ah thats annoying and something ive heard somewhere else...really thinking also about the Pocket 3 because its so easy to travel with...
anyways :) lovely footage & great photos overall!
Of course! Yeah, the solid NDs are the way to go. The footage itself is shockingly good and the AF is incredible. It will be a staple for these types of videos for us moving forward, I reckon. Thanks again!
Just Incredible!!
Really appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Wow! I NEED a tutorial on how you colour graded the DJI footage 😮 hope you might share one!🤞This looked so good 😍
Ah thank you! Noted, noted 🤘
@@DylanSpitz literally this would be the best video! There is too little good colour grading advice out for the osmo!
@@DylanSpitzalso need this 🤩
I literally stopped at the lookout in Vantage going to and from Montana this summer 🤣 - photos to follow
I’m still upset we couldn’t link up! In due time. 😂👊
@@DylanSpitz Oh it'll happen!
more gear more fun. more is more.
My back and lungs would disagree with that 😂
Incredible video mate. The osmo footage looks incredible. Please share the nd filter you have on it and make a settings video please.
Hey there! Thanks for that. 🫶 I actually had some annoying color shifting in the corners so I wasn’t thrilled with the vnd I had. I’ve since ordered a set of solid NDs and that should do the trick. 👍
@@DylanSpitz oh ok fair enough. Do you shoot at 1/48 shutter ?
Yep! Or I think 1/50 is the closest you can get on the pocket…but yeah
@@DylanSpitz awesome. Cheers
I wanna be you when I grow up
😂 you’re ridiculous. Hope you’re doing wonderfully buddy 🫶
Also, question, do you make all of your own music for your videos?
I make all of the intro music for the montages! I wish I had time to make the rest but I'd never be able to put videos out haha
@@DylanSpitz Nice man!
Thanks dude!
are you linking park ?
I’m not sure what you’re asking?
@@DylanSpitz you look like linking park group of vocal artist chester bennington.
Hahaha ok I thought maybe that’s what you meant but the g threw me off! He’s a legend so I’ll take it as a compliment 🫶
First of all amazing video!!! Love the color grading.
But if you shot this with Fujifilm X100VI -- I'm curious to know how the footage is so stable even when you're walking because the IBIS is not great on it. I own both Fujifilm X100VI and DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and can't even imagine to create a video like this with it! Mind blown.
When you're sitting in your studio in the beginning of the video -- is that also shot with Fujifilm X100VI? or am I understanding this wrong and the whole footage is shot with Pocket 3 and you just took pictures with X100Vi?
Haha no worries! Let me clarify. Photos and about 25% of the footage on the trip was shot with the X100VI. The rest of the footage from the trip was with the Pocket 3. The in-studio shot of me talking is with my A7Siii.
However, the X100VI can be a studio cam as well, I did that in my two month review of that camera and it was great. I just already have the Sony dialed up for that so it’s easier for me.
@@DylanSpitz Gotcha! Thank you so much for the explanations!
Gonna watch your 2 month review for X100VI.
Also subscribed because these are my first cameras and I’m still learning to use them!
Awesome! Thanks for the support, have fun out there 🤘🤘
Opening music is SICK!
gahhhhh I am so happy you liked it. I had a really fun afternoon writing that piece.
@@DylanSpitzwait a minute…you write the music for these videos too?!
I write all of the music for my intro montages! I'd love to do the rest as well but I would never be able to release videos haha
The algorithm did it's thing and brought me here and I'm glad it did! Loved the video, you got yourself a new subscriber!
Awesome! Thank you for the kind words and for supporting me on here, I appreciate it!
Dope as always! Really love the montage that starts at 10:07, the song goes so well with the mood.
Really appreciate you watching! Thanks for pointing out that part, I enjoyed that location quite a bit. Cheers!
The echo got me!! 😂😂😂 7:22
Hahahaha had to 😂
