No problem! Glad it was helpful!

Ha! I never realized that @nuclearfrank does look like Keanu here!

Thank you for tuning in! If I picked a composition technique to focus on for an upcoming livestream would you send me a photo to feature on the stream??

Yes! Definitely!

Thanks for watching! I appreciate you! What's your favorite composition technique!

The lens should operate the same?

You’re welcome!

Well said. I’ve been avoiding doing the firmware updates because people report the xh2s actually performs worse after the updates. I still have an RF35mm lens; maybe I should switch back?

Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you, thank you!

🙏 Thank you! I appreciate the kind words!

This is out of my experience really, and this might be overkill, but considering the challenges with the Godox TT350 triggering your AD200s in manual (M) mode on your X100F, here are some things to check: - Flash Mode on the TT350: Ensure that the TT350 is set to 'Master' mode and that it is configured to act as a trigger rather than as a flash. This mode should be indicated on the TT350’s screen. - Group Settings: Verify that the AD200 units are set to the same group/channel as the TT350. If they aren't, the AD200s won't receive the signal to fire. - Trigger Channel: Make sure both the TT350 and AD200s are on the same channel. Sometimes, being on different channels can prevent the flash signal from being sent. - TTL vs. Manual Mode: If the TT350 is in TTL mode while functioning as a transmitter, it might also be emitting its own flash. Try setting the TT350 to manual mode to see if it still triggers the AD200s, while ensuring it is only firing them and not itself. - Firmware: Ensure that your TT350 and AD200 have the latest firmware updates, which can address compatibility issues. If you're still having trouble, it might be worth consulting the manuals or reaching out to Godox's support team for further assistance. I hope these tips help!

Certainly! When you create a custom recipe and assign it to a mode like C1, you're not just saving aesthetic settings like film simulation and grain effect, you’re also saving the camera mode itself-whether that’s manual, aperture priority, etc. This means when you switch to C1, the camera will operate in the mode you saved, but you'll still have the flexibility to adjust aperture, shutter speed, and ISO with the dials as needed. It’s like saving a whole shooting profile that you can switch to instantly. But if you need to switch to a different shooting mode while in C1, you can just hit the Q (Quick Menu) button, and from there you can choose a different camera mode on the fly. This gives you incredible flexibility to adjust to changing conditions or creative choices without leaving your custom settings.Hope that helps!

Thanks for pointing that out! Appreciating the details helps everyone learn more about the nuances between models. Your keen observation on the gothic lettering of the Pen F is spot on. Thanks for sharing!

I'm glad you found the video helpful! To reset and add a new recipe, first make your desired custom adjustments. Then, to save these settings as a new recipe, navigate to the 'Save Current Settings' option found under the wrench menu in your camera settings. Thanks for your question!

Hey there! I really appreciate your comment and question. No worries about being new to sports photography-we all start somewhere! Considering your need for a camera suitable for fast outdoor sports like lacrosse and soccer, and given your budget concerns, I would suggest checking out the Canon 7D Mark II. It's a bit older but still a fantastic option for sports photography due to its robust autofocus system and high burst rate, which are great for capturing fast action. Pairing it with your 75-300mm lens will work well for outdoor sports. It’s a bit pricier than the T7, but the performance leap in sports settings is significant. Keep an eye out for used or refurbished models to get the best value! Hope this helps, and happy shooting! 📸✨

Hi there! Thanks so much for adding to the discussion with your clear explanation of how ISO works in digital cameras. You're absolutely right-understanding that ISO amplifies the signal rather than making the sensor more sensitive, like film, is crucial for getting to grips with modern photography techniques. It's great to have community members like you who share their insights, helping everyone understand camera settings better.

@@WesKriesel Thanks

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you found the tricks helpful. As of now, I don’t have specific tutorials online, but creating one to help fine-tune settings like focus points and shutter speed for marathon shooting with the R5 sounds like a fantastic idea. I’ll definitely consider making a video about the autofocus function and other settings that are crucial for capturing dynamic events like marathons. Stay tuned, and thanks for the great suggestion!

Thank you so much❤️

That's fantastic to hear! It’s definitely a game changer when you start creating your own custom recipes-it makes each photo uniquely yours. Fujifilm cameras are great for that kind of personalization. Enjoy the process of making your presets, and I bet you’ll find even more joy in your photography! 🎉📸 Keep sharing your excitement and creations with us!

Great question! The EOS R is a bit over the top for just 1080p streaming, but it can still deliver fantastic video quality if you already have one. You’re right about some Canon quirks with HDMI outputs and using them as webcams via USB. For platforms like Twitch or Zoom, a simpler webcam like the Logitech c920 might be easier to manage. If you choose to stream with the EOS R, I recommend using an Elgato Camlink. It’s my go-to for a smooth experience and helps manage any tricky output issues effectively.

Lol, you got it! With the RF800's smaller aperture, we often have to bump up the ISO in dimmer settings. It's all about finding the right balance! 😄

You're very welcome! I'm thrilled to hear you found the video helpful. Thanks for watching and for your kind words! If you have any more questions or need further information, feel free to ask. Happy shooting! 📸

Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds like you’ve done some thorough research and testing before making the switch to the X-H2s. I’m glad to hear that its features, especially the 6K ProRes, autofocus improvements, and F-Log 2, align so well with your needs. The film simulations really do set Fujifilm apart, don’t they? It’s tough to part with a camera like the Panasonic, but it seems like the X-H2s is the right choice for your work moving forward. Appreciate your detailed insight-this will definitely help others considering their options. All the best with your new setup!

Thanks for your feedback! It’s interesting to hear different perspectives. 😄
