    James great video overall. I have some feedback to help make the next one even better.
    1. Music when you’re talking is a little distracting, maybe turn volume down just a bit when talking.
    2. When he was filming you getting the front exterior shot he didn’t get your feet in the shot which would’ve been helpful.
    3. You didn’t mention any camera settings, especially autofocus. I know you’ve mentioned that in previous videos but new viewers likely haven’t seen those yet.
    4. Would’ve loved to see you cover the FPV shot in the final finished video.(The one shot in the kitchen.)
    5. Cover the Parallax shot you did showing the kitchen.
    Hope this helps from a learning prospective. 🙏

    Nice! Real estate photographer from Sweden here. Just a quick question, I see that you turn on and off the recording on the camera. Doesn´t the gimbal have a button for this? I´m using the Zhiyun Crane 4 and unfortunately it doesn´t work well with the R6 MK2 because the Rec button will instead activate auto focus on the camera.
    Another quick question, do you get fatigued easily doing this? I do. The Crane with accessories weigh 2,2 kilos, I think yours weigh 1,5. Wondering if it does a lot of difference or if I´m just weak :P

    • @amulyavashistha
      @amulyavashistha 2 місяці тому +1

      Go with the native ISO and follow 180 degree shutter rule, that is if you're shooting at 60 fps (which I'd recommend because you'll need to speed ramp) ( is you live in NTSC Country) 50 fps (if you live in PAL country) double the shutter speed that'd be 1/120 at 60 fps and 1/100 at 50 fps as for aperture f4 and f5.6 are great for real estate wide shots and for the detailed ones you can go f2.8 if you need more depth
