Iphone 7 Plus 4k video footage captured using the Filmic Pro app.
I used the MoviM5 for stabilizing for comparison reasons but you can get nice phone stabilizers like the DJI Osmo Mobile for only a couple hundred dollars.

It just proves that the skills of the makers are more important than what was used,
what skills?
matsta177 Where can I get that lens for 10$?
Ignore Matsta177... it's a paid troll account.
Gears does matter
skills in video editing
the thing is that clients will never hire a man with an iphone on a gimbal stabilizer.
Clients dont know shit
H MAN by the way, the color grading is very poor. If you yo want to compare a red camera next to an iphone, try pulling all the colors and you'll see a huge difference
edgarin They probably would if you have a great reputation. I have worked with DPs who make 5 figures on a commercial but we shot with some really inexpensive cameras. We had budget to shoot on 35mm but didn't because it wasn't the right tool. Using cheap equipment is more of a nightmare for your crew, most clients with serious money primarily care about results. They they know they are hiring an experienced DP who can deliver and trust their judgement.
No fucking shit. Sherlock Holmes.
@@DirectorHMAN LOL AMEN!
I couldn't believe my eyes at first... the iPhone 7 footage looks too good to be true! Haha
Jeremy Gallman unless ur video content is going on tv, there's no reason to be using a red for youtube videos
but jon olsson use 50k usd red for daily vlogging, totally overkill -__-
Hence the name, Team Overkill :p
Jeremy Gallman But nearly each phone over 250$ can do this. No dark scene, no bokeh, no contrast...
Then the hole on an expensive Stabilisation System and Colour Grading.
They shoukd have shown the Raw Footage
But why? Exactly when is the final product raw footage? If I'm not mistaken, when you are producing a movie, you go through three phases: preproduction (treatment, script, etc.), production (principal photography, ADR if needed), postproduction (editing). You don't simply show everyone the raw shots you've recorded; you edit the film, you colour-grade, you do the audio. Most labour-intensive work is in the postproduction anyway.
The purpose of this test was to show how well a film shot on an iPhone holds up, when compared to a reference result (a $50k RED). And, as I said numerous times, the point is that, if you're waiting to save enough money for a C100 (or 5Dmkiii) in order to shoot your first movie, you are just looking for an excuse to do nothing. The test show you that you can shoot your movie with the phone you have in your pocket. No excuses.
Most people won't be flying their iPhone on a nearly $3,000 stabilizer rig, either. Professional, high-quality, motorized physical stabilization goes a LONG WAY to making a professional product.
ALSO... the Red Weapon will never lose a take because someone called you. :P
Always switch to airplane mode when shooting...
$300 gimbals work fine too.
George Maybe for a smartphone, but there's not a single motorized 3-axis gimbal that will fly a Red Weapon for less than a grand. The one used in the video is almost $3,000.
HyperOptic Productions airplane mode
HyperOptic Productions Obviously for a smartphone... that's what we were talking about.
Nobody cares about how much the rig costs for his Red. The little 7 inch display is $3,000, and a new HANDLE is as much as an iPhone.
Professional equipment costs more... shocking!
Let me guess, the video from the bottom frame was shot on RED.
With a $10 dollar lens mind you.... Guys a moron
It is still an L series lens, hardly a ten dollar lens. He didn't use the cine lens purposely to show show what the IPhone 7+ can do, not to try and degrade the Red Weapon. When you are working for top professional companies and you don't have a troll account to comment from, we can discuss this further. I just finished his free webinar and he has had a lot of training and experience, and he offered up some impressive tidbits of info, even though I consider myself fairly knowledgeable on videography from doing stock footage work in photo & video as well as a couple of hobby cinematography projects. -Kevin
wakeup1986 Oh really where did you study your Film degree at? I studied for 5 years and have worked for the last 10.
I bet the highest grade camera you've worked with is DLSR, at most a C100.
Come back to me when you've used a real camera and worked on a real production. videography... Try doing some real Cinematography.
There you go... it's not about the camera, it's about what you can do with it. Why don't you sign up for Parker's film school and we'll both post entries into the video contests and let everybody else critique our work and go from there ???
wakeup1986 By that answer I assume I was correct in the camera guess.How about we both submit to cannes or Toronto film festival. If that's not to out of your league. I'll be at both in 2017 so message me back in 6 months and let me know what your entry is. =)
99 % of people are missing the point. Of course the phone wont get the same quality in dark areas and the same deph of field etc. The video was to show that u dont need a 50k + camera to make really nice looking films, especially for social media sites like youtube where it gets compressed anyways.
You just need a $3000 stabilizer (Just kidding, I got the point lmao).
I got the point, but they doing this comparison for CLICKS, because Paul made this point and Jet made this point yet they keep making the same point over and over and over again. I got the point-- teach us something new. Oh no, they will not do that unless you sign up for their courses. Its all good, they have to earn a living but call a cat a cat.
Well, to, be fair, you are mounting the iPhone to a gimbal worth quite a shit load of money...
Arcanineisthebest iphone gimbals are cheap
And putting a $10 dollar lens on a 50k camera
I'd like to know where you can get a Canon L lense for $10
LMFAO
Arcanineisthebest but the red weapon to is on a gimbal. Sooooooo its fair.
I've watched this video a few times over the past couple years. In that time, I've shot in every setting and lighting condition with my iPhone 7 plus with filmic pro next to my Panasonic gh4. The gh4 was such a pleasant surprise--I've always liked the 4k video images it produces. The iPhone and filmic pro, however, was not. The differences are so dramatic between the iPhone and the gh4 that I couldn't imagine what they would be like with a Red camera. Filmic pro, in my view, doesn't provide much increase in video quality over the iPhone camera app and it's full of noise. I really like the energy of this fellow; I like the way he delivers his message. I appreciate the effort he took to put this together. But I'm calling time out. You don't need a 50 k camera to shoot something decent. You do need something better than an iPhone, and there are a lot of great cameras out there that cost about the same.
You can't really show the quality difference on UA-cam because of video compression. A RED Epic will always be miles better than any smartphone because of its sensor, lenses and image processor. These three elements are fundamental when it comes to video quality and no smartphone will be able to match a camera of this kind. Yeah, creativity is key obviously, but if we're talking video quality, nothing compares to Red, Arri or BlackMagic.
As was exactly the point at 2:40 (ua-cam.com/video/ztpX3AO1UtU/v-deo.html)
Vylkeer majority of content are consumed on youtube anyway.. so unless you're shooting a fking movie for imax theatres whats the point
cryogenicheart2019 You don't need to shoot an IMAX movie to take advantage of it, you just need to shoot any movie even a short or music video. The point is, it doesn't make that huge different on UA-cam, but it does when you're able to show the full quality and its full potential.
Vylkeer that's what I'm saying. Even short films and music videos get the bulk of their views on youtube. So there's no reason to use expensive gear when 99% of your audience are not gonna see it at its "full potential".
cryogenicheart2019 True. I hope UA-cam and similar internet services will increase the bitrate and other specs when uploading a video, so to have less quality loss.
I would say the difference between phone and 'proper' camera footage is motion, phones always look jerkier than a normal camera even at a high shutter speed.
***** I agree that is part of it, but I think most phones have timing issues between frames where the interval is not always equal, high shutter speed footage can look smoother than that(just a theory)
Also its a shit ton less versatile doinng your shots. No focus pulling, no peaking, no zebra, no Neutral Density filters, no other different optics, sharpness ist not too good, depth of field either, less possibility for postproduction, less dynamic range. Just saying, the Iphone is a 700€ Device or so. You could get a camera for that, that would be more versatile in these terms. None the less, the image quality seems to be quite good for a mobile device, but as he said int he video, since youtube compresses the shit out of every footage, the difference between the RED and the Iphone are going to be was less obvious.
For this test anyway, you cannot really fairly compare the two, not only because of compression, etc, but also because it is likely his center point of rotation on the gimbal is around the red camera, not the iphone taped on top, so the iphone's framing is changing more each frame than the red is. But your right in general there are shutter issues that are going to bite you on the iphone that you have more control over on the red for instance.
Even Roger Deakins made a joke recently that he doesn't care, he would shoot it on an iphone if the director wanted it for some reason, dig technology is getting good enough in general. But that is a guy with more experience shooting than 20 good cinematographers working in film right now have, so he probably knows enough to get around the iphones limitations and make a shot work. I have no doubt a genius eye like his could actually really make a movie with the iphone 7 that looks as good as many succesful moives. For the rest of us, shooting any important piece on the iphone7 would be stupid. As Gumpa2 says, for 700€ you can buy a blackmagic and get way better shots...
I think it looked jerky because the optical image stabilization built into the iPhone was fighting against the stabilizer, causing it to look shaky. that was the first thing that tipped me off about which was the phone. That said, the best camera is the one you have already.
The app he uses on his iPhone (and the one he recommends on the other video, the BTS one), Filmic Pro, supports shutter speed and ISO changes. And if you're shooting outdoors, I'd highly recommend an ND filter to deal with the unavoidable overexposure of the sky (due to the small sensor). So yeah, if you know how to shoot well, and the ability exists on your digicam or phone, the problems go away. I've shot official music videos with a $200 digicam, and no one would believe that the footage was from such a small camera. But the trick was: always lock exposure (and set shutter speed if your device allows it to a cinematic value, e.g. 1/48th for 24p, 1/60th for 30p), lock exposure to -1 and use an ND add-on filter outdoors, shoot with flat colors to enable easier color-grading in post (Canon allows for low contrast, saturation, sharpness controls on their cheap cams), and shoot at 30p (for a video without audio, like I did for my music videos -- music was added in post). Then, you slow down the 30p to 24p in the video editor (exactly what he did here too). And that comes out super-cinematic. I've been doing these tricks with digicams since 2009 (and with cellphones since 2 years ago, before then, the right software abilities were not there). The tricks work.
lord of the ring music?
Yup "Shire theme"
Zhenru Zhang played it with my trumpet. It's wonderful!
I was scrolling down looking for a comment like this!!
Lord Of The Rings not ring
Wow, the fact that he executed this side by side comparison so well, it would deceived almost 90% of the audience in cinemas or any viewing platform. Quick fast cuts, and everyone would think it's shot on a million dollar camera! Well done!
The footage is quite good on the iphone, specially on the sun shot. It has good enough DR and the colors look good too.
My thoughts, too! :) The only difference I could see was the depth of field on the RED because of the bigger sensor and the f2.8 lens
and the particular flare from the Iphone
yes :)
Indoor shooting will really show you how much difference, low lighting situation distinguish the good cameras and the bad ones
I never liked these comparisons where any camera can do good at. Obviously filming at a beautiful location without having to focus on anything and using mostly wide angle shots is going to look good. A camcorder against a RED might look better for a mostly static shot. But itts when you get to the 50% of the other type of shots you will be doing where the RED or even any large sensor sized interchangeable lens camera will dominate any camcorder or phone.
you are missing the whole point of this video.
Kenny Shem No i'm not. I get it "you don't need expensive gear to start filming" but this just shows the best conditions possible type of scenario. What I am saying is that there is a huge need for expensive cameras and just using your phone wont cut it.
the discussion is not about abandoning RED and use iphone for proper production. It's to show that under certain environment, a smartphone can achieve such good result by which most online viewers won't be able to tell the differences. If you are to screen in theater, heavy color grading, green screen, low light, shallow dof shot definitely go for the RED but that's not the purpose of this video. It's not correct to bring in camcorder as that is a proper video camera whereas iphone is just a phone in your pocket.
Kenny, but you're limiting yourself and your story. You're adapting the story to use the bad camera (only daylight scenes, only that focus, only that lens...). It's not only about shitty quality
DavidSaganHD Exactly! These shots are the low-hanging fruit, a comparison in low light or basically anything a little more challenging would not yield the same results at all. Highly suspect this was sponsored by Apple.
great video. everybody needs to realize this only works with exceptional lighting conditions. you pull out an iphone in indoor location and an infant can tell the difference between the footage and a red.
Why on earth are people complaning about the damn stabilizer? The videos where shot equally and in "exactly" the same way. It's a completely fair comparison. This was supposed to show the difference in the video quality comparing a phone to a $50,000 RED.
100% agree - that was the most revealing thing to me. Spend some money on a decent stabilizer system, (Zhiyun Gimbal Smooth 3 or Osmo), and that will immediately give you 1 up in production. Im blown away by the phone video quality ... and to think these things can shoot up to 240fps.
Yeah, they thought Hollywood movies are shot with bare hands.
Hahahaha. People like to hate on anything and rant about everything. Used to it though
To see the difference is easy, the dynamic range, especially the bright areas. See the sun in that last comparison shot. But, yeah, your point is still valid.
Looked good but if you had shot less flattering locations, before/after magic hour and no gimbal, the two wouldn't even be close to comparable..
I think thats his point. You can use some skill to make it stack up to higher end equipment
situation and environment aren't "skills"
+Lee Cason location scouting is a skill
H MAN so anyone who can identify a beautiful mountain-side is a qualified to be a location scout on a high-budget shoot? You do realize that there's more to a professional location scout's job than pointing out pretty places, right?
The camera in the iPhone 7 is an amazing tool. I love that I have such a powerful camera in my pocket all the time. I usually use a GH4 and rig for my projects, but the iPhone on an Osmo Mobile is a great "quick" option that is easy to haul places that I don't want to lug a larger setup.
And throw it on youtube, because youtube compression will really help show what is better. An iPhone or a Red.
Most filmakers use Vimeo... but it is not that different in quality (slightly higher datarates)
I absolutely agree, but they really don't have any other better option to show it off. UA-cam would have to allow way higher bitrates and have overall lower compression for people to really notice the obvious quality difference between a Red and an iPhone 7.
Morphsuit Gamer L
huh quality. let me tell u if u really want that quality. open up ur 6k fucking footage. no.. not in video player. in text file. and calculate the binary numbers and figure out how much correctly the raw datas has been captured. guess what? u aint doing that shit ;) thats why u r here shitting with an iphone and making living living. else, u would've been that nerd doing coding.
I was like: oh, look at those grainy and pixelated edges, that must be the iPhone...
no wait, just the youtube compression :D
The dead giveaway is from the lens flare of the 2 units. The iphone produces a single lens flare that has chromatic aberrations, while the Red Weapon has a full compliment of lens flares from the multiple layers of glass that makes up the lens that you used in the film. The imaging of the Red is marginally sharper and is more crisp. Also, the colors are more true with the Red and the image is slightly better. Nice film, nice and honest assessment and comparison. I won't say which film is which, but I have no doubts about which is the iphone and which was shot on the Red unit... Thanks for sharing.
Now if I could figure out how to get to your website and see the tutorial that you've made I probably would.

Maybe you should put that link in the video description. I think that might've been Oliver's point. Great video btw, couldn't believe that was shot on an iPhone.
Wow - this is super impressive. I'm a filmmaker and I honestly struggled to tell the difference at first. The thing that gives it away is the way the iPhone handles motion blur. It looks 'off' compared to the red (and a dslr that handles video well.) But in terms of resolution, for such a tiny lens, the iPhone is incredible.
Awesome job! You up for collaborating?
It is when you have poor lighting that the better camera truly comes to life, most cameras these days do a great job when the lighting is good; even more so when you are shooting in such a beautiful location as that :)
I love the lord of the rings music
Wow that was awesome
It seems like I need to start using my phone more at least to shoot some B-roll footage :)
This is called a rocking channel on youtube
But the Iphone was too on that rig(stabilizer, i don't know how it's called).
I think this made also a great part of the job.
I tried using iPhone 7 not the 7 plus to shoot some video for my class was impress that i could achieve cinematic result and the internal stabilisation is amazing for what it is.
"shot completely on the iPhone 7" what about the stabilizer, professional editing software, light reflectors etc?
Exactly, there are many different elements in play here other than the different cameras.
you can easily discern both by dynamic range. The wider dynamic range of RED is immediately apparent.
Yeah the dynamic range on IPhone still isn't that great, same with low light. And it can't really compare with using a RED to its full capabilities.
yep but I can do something close with my $900 iPhone 7 plus - awesome value for money!
Nigel Harrison try do it on night !
And with a lens that costs more than $10 dollars from Kmart....
matsta177 You don't have to post that under every comment. (While you still haven't shown us where to get that 10$ lens)
MikelG00 Posted where already maybe read another comment with my reply.
That was awesome ;)
You know what blew my mind last time I was thinking about this. This is a hoax/fake/scam video to increase the perceived value of the iPhone 7 Plus, because there is *no* way that these 2 cameras go actually head to head. RIGHT?!
@@fulltimefilmmaker Love your video. Super high quality. But it would be nice if you emphasized that you edited the colors.
This was AWESOME!!!! And NOT because of the camera comparison. I grew up hiking those mountains, back before the trails were as nice as they are now. I spent so many summers climbing that very ridge and the canyon that is shown behind it. Beautiful area, that west side of Lone Peak. :) Thanks for showcasing it so well.
I don't think this is a very good comparison, just about any camera will look good in competent hands, with good light and a $3,000 stabilizer. I understand the point was to demonstrate you shouldn't use the "My gear isn't good enough excuse" but I feel it would have been far more realistic and fair if you had used a less expensive stabilization method than the movi.
Thank you I am well aware of that, what I was suggesting is he use a phone stabilizer for the phone and the movi for the RED. I know it wouldn't be the exact same shots but hear me out. If you are using a RED, investing in a movi makes a lot of sense, I mean the M5 fully rigged up probably costs about a tenth of what that camera costs, but if that's the case, it is also five times more expensive than the cost of an iPhone 7. Someone trying to use a phone camera for production will need a stabilizer, but I don't think any phone-dedicated stabilizer (except maybe the new Osmo mobile) can replicate the amazing results and usability of a movi. My point wasn't to use a less expensive stabilizer for both, my point was to put them each on one the end user might implement.
Parker Walbeck Yeah I understand, and I didn't mean to challenge that idea at all. My reaction was a bit disproportionate and I'm sorry about that. I have a lot of respect for you and the really great content you are putting out to help new film makers. I guess my point was that even though you can create great cinematic images with any gear, it is important to convey that it isn't super easy to create beautiful dynamic shots like the ones featured here. In hindsight you did discuss this, but most videos I see on topics like this sort of understate that if you want to use really budget friendly gear you have to put in a lot of work.
Bryce Dearden red and iPhone both were using a stabilizer. So it's a fair fight. Now shut the fuck up loser.
The first video I thought was the red, but it said shoot on iPhone!!! That's crazy good.
The quality isn't honestly that different given the $49,000 price difference. I'd rather stick with an iPhone and a new car instead of a Red Weapon.
Graham Clarence low light is where the difference shows
johnniedehuff still, if I can buy an iPhone, a new MacBook Pro and a new vehicle for the same price as one camera, I'll take the former over the latter. If I was a serious video maker I might get the Red Weapon. It is truly a great camera and can't be done justice on UA-cam since it doesn't support 6K. Yet.
one word, Glass.
Iphone has only one lense thats the big problem
Luca Gruber true. The interchangeable lenses are nice on dedicated cameras.
To the untrained eye on UA-cam at low resolutions, most people couldn't tell the difference. I told instantly because of dynamic range. To get true cinematic quality, you would struggle on an iPhone.
This does not surprise me at all... A few years ago I was in a movie... and the lady that was shooting the continuity was using a iPhone4... some of her "B" roll shots were better than the main camera!!! That is when I was hooked on IPhone... ;) ... I teach the same knowledge that you do, that it is Great to have an expensive camera like the Red, (who wouldn't want that?) ... but, an IPhone or a Cannon 5D Mark III isn't bad to start out with at all.. Thank you for sharing this... and I can't wait to see more... ;)
Yeah, good luck achieving shallow depth of field with your iPhone...
Emilioh888 it's entirely possible with lens adaptors. You put different lenses on your red, so it's a fair comparison when you add a lens attachment to the iPhone.
Dr Pellypo There's no way to adapt lens to the iPhone or any camera of that size with unremovable lens to achieve depth of field.
Francisco Zarabozo I disagree. Beastgrip is just one such adaptor.
So, you only need a decent gimbal, to know how to light, use some edition programs, use composition and also the limitations of your mobile camera to make something even comparable to a high end camera, this is motivation for people who want to make some films in a budget, thanks!
100 percent iphone 7 s? what about the $$$$ gimbal?
Brooooo that iPhone 7 footage was Insane
Okay...now go watch my video to see a $200 DSLR camera kick the shit out of an iPhone in video and photo!
I think too many people are held back from accomplishing amazing things because they get too obsessed with things like the lack of a $50,000 camera. The message of this video is simple -- get out there and start working on your creative projects with what you have. Even if it's just an iPhone. Creativity goes a LOOOOONG way.
"it doesn't matter what your budget is"
* films with 800 dollar phone on top of the range gimbal *
come on bro...
Parker Walbeck ok buddy, if that's what your mind is set on. Sure the camera only costs $50, but it's not like I can go on amazon and buy the iphone camera. so what is your point even supposed to make clear??
Blackest Man Alive This was a very dumb comment. An 800 dollar iPhone is dirt cheap compared to any sort of professional equipment or even the other camera he used
Awesome man , im using my iphone 7 plus to film 🎥 all my videos for my tech channel and its really amazing !
1:20 looks like green screen
Yeah I thought that too
Please shoot a video red weapon vs oppo f3
lmao so many salty RED fanboys.. does the snobby attitude come with the overpriced camera or is that an overpriced mandatory accessory ?
RED fanboys? This is getting stupid, what's next Aunt Jemima fanboys? Medium roast arabica coffee fanboys?
They are just salty that the iPhone has a good camera, which should be expected from a flagship phone. There are no RED fanboys lol.
I do think they are overpriced as all hell. But, in the end, they are targeted at cinema studios. They don't care about price in the end. Because studios will by a $100k camera anyways.
But, if you're talking about the comments, I agree with you. People aren't getting the message that the video is to show the AMAZING improvement of smartphones.
Overpriced isn't accurate. In fact the reason RED became so popular in the first place was because of how vastly cheaper it was than the comparable competition.
as long as you can colour grade well it doesn't matter what camera you use
Ahahahah are you serious? Red vs iPhone? Ahahahahh
gigi gigiotto dumb?
The stabilizer makes all the difference. what ever camera you used if you have a great stabilizer you can make anything cinematic.
All u need is Light Color and View important is the good background music
Lol, your gimbal is soooo nice to, so you have to keep that in mind. Secondly, its important to know that after color coding, and throwing different LUTS, and adding different retiming in post, the quality looks a lot better. Not only that, but the landscape was buetifal. Not saying the iPhone S quality was bad, cause it was great, but there are many factors, and I think the setting was a prominent factor.
Its kinda funny that i could recognize the Red Weapon footage and ive never even heard of it. Its just very noticeable which one is better. Although the iPhone 7 footage was pretty good!
This did a great job of showing what excellent images the iPhone is able to generate. It's pretty mind blowing how good the phone looks.... however, I could just not get past the stuttery look because the iPhone was obviously shooting at a much higher than "normal" shutter speed (and I'm assuming you can't control that with the iPhone, I don't know as I don't shoot motion footage with a phone). The RED footage looked so silky smooth because it was no doubt shot with something much closer to the equivalent of a 180 degree shutter (which would be 1/48th of a second if shooting 24fps). No doubt in the brighter scenes the shutter speed ramps waaaay up, yielding those crisp images. I stopped to look at a few still frames where there was a lot of motion (the guy waving his arms, for example), and in the iPhone footage it was perfectly crisp, not a hint of motion blur. Your brain obviously needs that motion blur to perceive the action as smooth, which is what the iPhone footage has a bit of an undesirable staccato look to it. Great comparison.
The iPhone 7+ footage looks amazing, like a great dlsr camera
Buffering the vid at 1440p on the lg g4 really helps you tell quickly which video is shot with the red weapon 😄
Just learned that I was wrong! Turns out, the one on the top was the iPhone whereas I though otherwise! Really impressed
I am from Recife in Brazil South America great video...and comparison of the two cameras.
Yes I subscribed
Best comparison ever! Let's handicap the capability of the Red Weapon vs what the iPhone 7+ can do best and market it as good as a Red Weapon to a bunch of iDiots! It's like a kid riding a bike at 15mph and a dude driving a lambo at 15mph and trying to explain to kids the Bike is just as good as the lambo.
Parker Walbeck No, I do get the point of your video. however, your video can very easily spread misinformation toward the two products. You missed my point.
Youre deserve for 1 million Subscriber, I Love your video cinematografi so beautiful 😄
Top one is the Red camera. You can tell mostly because it has more stops of dynamic range. Shots at the start have a slightly more blown out sky on the bottom shot (iphone)
เก่งจริง ผมชื่นชอบในการทำคริปของเขาจริงๆ
Jeez it is really the skill !!!! This is awesome
i agree,.that the creativity,.is the number one,.
but the gear is important too,.but , to be honest,.
the gear is nothing without creativity
this is a great comparison video, thanks!
to make sense of it all: please disclose all the camera and lens settings you used. for both cameras (as far as you can tell with a smartphone cam...). color profile, shutter, aperture, lens, iso, any other stuff that's worth mentioning...
and then: what did you do in post? this is important! sharpening, any kind of grading, ...
you can't expect to have a technical comparison like this taken seriously without any real tech specs.
Great video Parker. Glad I choose an iphone 7 plus.
It´s almost like comparing a racing car (RED) to a slow family car (iPhone) in rush traffic - no obvious difference. However when that rush traffic clears, there will be a huge difference. But still a fun test. And a good photographer can use any tool and get great results, a RED will not make you a great filmmaker, but it will make a great filmmaker better!
that lens flair on the weapon gave it away with the side by side
and DR
Rostislav Alexandrovich oh yeah cant forget thats a big one with smart phones
plus the high light roll off was very digital compared to the reds but for a phone I am surprised
That is amazing Parker.
Parker Walbeck, I see that so many people missed the point of this demonstration. He (Parker) was very clear about what he did and why he did things the way he did. He also pointed out that you do not need expensive equipment to shoot great looking films, and he is absolutely correct. His comparison and assessments were spot on, and I understood his message perfectly. I am able to shoot good looking films with my smartphone without the fancy gear or stabilizers, and without expensive equipment. That is precisely his point and his reason for doing this side by side comparison. He made it a point to let you know that"you're only limited by your imagination and skills at using what you have...
His other point of this film was to show you what can be achieved and what you yourself can do if you have the knowledge and take the right approach with the right attitude... I'm sorry that so many of you don't see or understand that. But, he was also aware that there would be many "nay-sayers" that would make many negative comments about his comparison. I applaud him for his skills as a filmmaker and his ability to foresee the comments now being posted and shared. Thank you Mr. Parker Walbeck for this beautifully made and informative film.
The iPhone dynamic range is unbelievably good
I watched this on my cellphone and the side by side was microscopic xD. But the pro camera has better "light tolerance" (?). What I mean with this is that the shadows are not so dark and the bright parts looks better.
Excellent soundtrack choice xD.
Even without a gimbal, the iPhone's got great image stabilisation especially at 60fps. The only annoying thing I'd say is the auto exposure. But there's always AF/AE lock :)
Brother trust me you are a great cinematographer
Cool and interesting test,Unfortunately I cannot really see the real difference because
youtube downgrade the footage big time.What I see is that the phone uses high shutter speed causing a bit jittery lagging effect on faster movements but hey it’s a phone.Overall it’s a very impressive performance from a tiny sensor and lens.Great video!
He's such a legend !!
Get a wide angle lens and use colour correction
Wow! Very impressive! That was amazing!! What was the editing like!?? I think that would be the biggest grabber. I stumbled on tis video by watching your webinar by the way! Great stuff! Im taking detailed notes and learning a lot!
Hi, very clear and useful video. Thanks a lot!
Looks like you shot the Red at a much higher f stop as to not have a shallow depth of field to match the IPhone. Pretty sneaky if I do say so. But seriously though great video.
I never thought the iphone camera was so powerful !
Man, I was already excited about this video, but the LotR film score had me SOLD. LOL! good choice
Dope I own the gh4 and 7d and iphone 7 plus and this was amazing bro good work
I think you should try the procam4 app and shoot at 4k max and then compare. I think you would like the iphone results. But of course you can not compare with the RED
Both are amazing, really
Great video honestly, really nice camera handling as well.
I am following your lead now . good explanations
Man You Good with camera
Loved it! Thank you!
hmm seems like a i need a stabilizer lol Great video!
watching from Brazil you are amazing
Man, you've inspired me ... thank you
These are my thoughts, 1. Obviously we do not watch the amazing results of the RAW footage of his red weapon because of the compression of (i assume) the h.264 and the youtube compression. And 2. Yes, you can do anything with almost any camera, look out the vids of Romain Gavras (Amazing Director), He have some videos with the oldies vhs cameras.
By the way, nice video!
