I am obsessed with this video I have watched it at least 11 times. I read all the comments and bought just about everything you suggested. I know nothing about cameras but I'm learning. Do you think I can get away with no stabilization (eliminating the crop) with my new gimbal and wide angle and still get smooth results? My content is quilts. With that said any ideas about any filters I need for indoor filming of quilts? Thank you times 10 million for this video it is one of the best by far.
@RickEvansTheThird3 жыл бұрын
First, thank you so much for the kind feedback and support! I truly appreciate it. Second, the standard stabilization won't crop in the image, only the "active" version will do that. So, you should be able to use standard with no problems. Also, if you find the footage is still too shaky for you, turn the active stabilization on and give it a shot. It only crops in a tiny bit and can be useful in certain situations. And, as for shooting indoors, just make sure you have plenty of light. Keep your ND filters turned off, and no polarizer will be needed either. Hope all that helps. Best of luck with the quilting and your channel! Reach out if you ever have any other questions.

Thank you for telling me not to use the ND filters and Polarized inside because that is the first think I would have done when all my stuff gets here. I think I'm about to purchase a field monitor and a light now. When I'm filming in the craft room I honestly don't see things very well. I have been using my cell phone for most of my footage this far but it is time to learn photography since it is such a huge part of content creation. Again I really appreciate you checking out my channel any suggestions are welcomed with open arms at any time.

Just know, that the RX100m8 slated for 2021 will fix the not-wide-enough wide-angle and give you some other cookies, to get you to upgrade... I predict that ZV-1 cameras will become very cheap on eBay when that comes out. Not withstanding those who will smartly just relegate the ZV-1 for B-Roll. Sony is priming the market with the ZV-1 and then get another $1200+ out of everybody who is serious about their vlogging. For this, they will actually spend the money to redesign the RXV's F1.8 24mm-70mm to an F1.8 18mm-55mm lens. (this is not inside info, but an educated guess from someone who has watched Sony's tactics since the 80's) Always leave some warts, so you can sell the same camera as a new camera with the fix.

The GP-VPT2BT is great. It makes one-handed photo and video shooting super easy. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it has a 2-speed zoom button. Press lightly and it zooms slow, press fully and it zooms fast (cool!). However, I just also started using the Inkee Ironbee. Handle is a little smaller (girth) so it's a tad more comfortable than the Sony AND the remote is removable remote. Thing is all metal and tough as nails. Both grips work great on my A6400 and both are quite pack-able in a small camera bag (e.g. Ruggard 15 or 25).

I actually prefer to keep the screen folded to the back cuz it makes it way easier. But I have options now. It definitely works.
