ARE SMARTPHONES ENOUGH? Pro Filmmaker's Insights | Feat. Xiaomi 13T Pro

[@KenseiAkatsu]

OMG😱 KA reviewing a smartphone?? But it wasn't that bad. It was fun with it 😎 Hope you enjoy this video as well 👍

I always carry my a6700 and two smartphones (apple and android)with me when I am out shooting. I always find myself using my iPhone 13 pro more often than the a6700. Main reason is using smart phones is more convenient for me to share the content I need for my social media platform. It’s fast and when creative ideas came I can just quickly shoot and share it. Time is money!😂

I guess that's why panasonic released the s9

I started my videography as a hobby on iPhone 14 Pro Max + DJI OSMO M6. Doing-travel b-roll and stuffs and later after a year got Sony A6700 as I got into more photography as well. Phone is surely very easy to shoot with and is enough for social media posting but it has some limitation especially for photos. Phone seems to be a bit too over sharpening and weird contrasts and color in some situations (may be it's just iPhone?) and the file is not as good as camera RAW that's for sure.

Lumix S9 + iPhone + Smart Lab App is the way to go!

[@KenseiAkatsu]

Sounds bout right!

Great video! I think with iPhone log etc, the majority of users need a phone and maybe compact cameras like Ricoh or Pocket 3. Those not being paid or doing hobby wildlife - mirrorless with changeable lenses is an insane amount of money.

I think starting with a phone is a great option for the majority of people. You only lose out on a few things like low light performance and depth of field. The Xaomi looked pretty nice in my opinion, but slightly hazy and crushed contrast (much like action cameras) Leaving less flexibility for color correction in post. Nice review Ken!

Love my smart phone for simple B roll. I like my Sony A7IV for everything else.

[@KenseiAkatsu]

Yes, that is the TRUE versatile king

[@fedzciulla]

I’m starting to think that we could now refer “mirrorless cameras” as just “digital cameras”, or even “cameras”. Every manufacturer switched to mirrorless, so there are no reflex in production, so why don’t we simplify it? What do you think?

[@blueridgestops3128]

If you only compare a few odd shots taken with a 35mm that you don't do anything else with except viewing the image on your phone or computer, you are not going to notice too much of a difference. However, when you look at an entire body of work shot with an I-phone vs almost any modern mirrorless (full frame or APSC) taken with a bagful of zooms or primes that you turn into portrait wall art, yes, you can tell. I've said this before: I wouldn't show up at a professional wedding shoot with only an I-Phone, but if something happens to your A-cam (overheats and temporarily shuts down, you need to change batteries, whatever), DON'T hesitate to pull out the I-Phone until you can attend to your A-Cam.

Any condensation in the camera when outside?

[@BodhiSurfer1991]

I still like my xperia. Have yet to see how the new 1VI is though.

[@KenseiAkatsu]

Not yet. Definitely I will try it soon!

[@zuka1088]

Did you use davinci resolve for editing? Or both adobe and davinci?

[@Jay_Q_001]

Both✌️

[@KenseiAkatsu]

Color graded on Davinci
