Canon R7 Best Cinematic Video Settings

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Now that you have shot some great cinematic Canon Log video, here's how to use it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmfLYaadpbaXm7s

What software you use to open the 120 FPS Clog footage, i cant open it with any windoes sfotware, even Resolve 18 cant open it.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

@@MohammadHossain-sp2bx I am using Premiere Pro. I've heard there are issues opening clog footage in the free version of Resolve 18 but if you buy the studio version they will open.

[@marvinlovenfeldt]

@@ScooterMediaVideos have you tested the latest free version of Davinci Resolve for issues with opening c-log 3 or is it just rumers to make people buy the Studio version?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

@@marvinlovenfeldt I have not tested it, I use Premiere Pro and don't have any issues. There were a few different people that had mentioned that issue with the free version of DaVinci Resolve though.

Those opening video footage is why I love the R7. I don't own expensive lenses. But even using just what I have looks really great.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

I agree, I'm happy with the footage I get just with the R7 and the kit lens. 👍

[@SchardtCinematic]

@Scooter Media I resisted at first on getting a lens with it and was only going to buy the adapter for my EF lenses. But then a little voice in my head said. Get that 18-150 RF lens. Because it might be the only one you have for awhile. So I got that 18-150 and the adapter. Well worth it. Thanks for a great video on Cinematic settings.

[@giniemery8022]

Great video! I'm considering getting the R7 to upgrade from my 80D and was wondering about some video settings so thank you for the deep dive into its possibilities. I know it's an overall video and it's not supposed to go further into video technicalities but it would have been nice to talk a little bit about the effect the aperture has on the depth of field because depending on the result you want you won't set it to the lowest, therefore you won't always need an ND filter, and the way you present it is not really teaching anything to people having no clue about it 😉 But it doesn't take anything from the rest of the video so thanks again!

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

The ISO is going to change depending on the light etc. If you don’t want to keep riding the ISO, just set it to auto ISO and you should be good to go. When not shooting in CLOG, you want the ISO to be as low as possible to avoid noisy images.

Hello, and thank you! 👍 If you buy an R7 or any other Canon R Series mirrorless camera, you can use any Canon EF or EF-S lens if you purchase the Canon EF-EOS R Adapter. This will allow you to use any of the Canon, Sigma, etc. lenses that you have used on the 70D and Rebel T3i with full autofocus capabilities etc. I do a video about this on my channel, the one I use has a built-in ND filter for video work but you would just need the basic adapter.

Two questions, I read in the comments that you use the Sigma art 30mm f1.4 lens, and I was wondering what ef-rf converter you are using to fit that lens. Secondly, did you use that lens for the close-ups of the birds and squirrels as well (if so, my gosh, those are trusting animals because you gotta get kinda close hahaha). Thanks again! :)

@@ScooterMediaVideos thanks for your quick answer!

[@InWhoseOpinion]

In photo mode, you can choose between sRGB and AdobeRGB color spaces. Does this setting carry over to the video mode? If not, how is the color space set in video mode? Thanks

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

In video mode you basically decide if you want to shoot in the normal color space or you can choose to shoot in Log which is a very flat looking image that you can color correct and grade in post.

[@InWhoseOpinion]

@ScooterMediaVideos Is the normal color space sRGB or AdobeRGB? Can the normal color space be set to either sRGB or AdobeRGB? If so, where is the setting made? Thanks

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

@@InWhoseOpinion I don’t believe that those color spaces carry over to video and if they do I have never changed them in my 15 years of shooting video.

[@postabsorptiv]

I recently discovered the concept of ISO invariance and that my R7 is ISO invariant. Nevertheless, I am uncertain whether ISO invariance also apply to movie. If so, I do not understand the difference concerning noise when shooting with a lower ISO and then bumping up the exposure afterwards. Maybe I am missing something ? Regards from Lars

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

I had never heard of ISO invariance until you mentioned it...I had to look it up and it does seem to be more of a photography thing. I know when I shoot video, I set the cameras ISO to whatever the base ISO is and don't change it, to produce the cleanest image.

[@postabsorptiv]

Thank you for your swift reply🙏 Have you ever tried comparing the two scenarios of shooting with say ISO 100 vs 800 with the R7 to see what produces the cleanest image ? Maybe you have previous experience from an ISO variant camera that does not apply to the R7 ?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

@@postabsorptiv I have not compared the two, I always shoot everything in Clog 3 and the base iso is 800 so I never change it.

It’s because the free version of DaVinci Resolve doesn’t support advanced files like clog 3. The paid version will work or you can use other editing software or you can try and convert the files into something that will work in the free version.

This was so informative for me. I just got mine in the other day. I wanted it because I felt it was going to be an easier and lighter option for me to use during wrestling tournaments for my son. But, now I’m pondering if I can actually shoot in these modes and make the best senior year video ever. 😂. Honestly. This is amazing and I’m now a huge fan. What brand of Filter did you use in this video? There’s nothing but awful fluorescent lighting at these places. I’ve left my 1dx on the same settings for the last few years because that’s the only time I use that one! My 5d range bodies are my babies and my favorite. But, video and the shutter speed was the main reason I purchased this body. I’m eager to jump in all the way!

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Congrats on the new camera! I usually just use an ND Filter, if I am shooting with EF lenses I have the Canon RF to R adapter with built-in variable ND filter or I use a Tiffin variable ND filter on the end of my RF lenses. You could probably shoot in these modes and make the best senior year video ever...however I would recommend practicing using these settings and color correction/grading before shooting something important if you're not familiar with shooting in LOG. It is a whole new skill set...you can also use the camera without shooting in LOG and get great results without having to do so much in post production. 👍

@@ScooterMediaVideos thank you so very much! I’m going to place my order for that. I usually just have a UV colter to protect the lenses.

I have several Canon EF-S STM Lenses that I used with my Canon 90D and my C100 mk2 and I'm considering this R7 exclusively (90%) for video...I know I need an adapter to use my EF-S lenses but I wonder how good would the continous autofocus be using the adapter? I also have the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 and the Sigma 50-100mm f1.8. It would be a shame not to use them again for video I think. I have been using a Sony FX30 with native sony lenses and is a good camera. But I miss using my older lenses...any experience with adapting lenses? I wish I could afford a Canon C70!

[@myblacklab7]

Is this camera bad in low light compared to an entry-level 4k60 full-frame camera like the r8? It's hard to judge cameras without owning them, but the comparisons of footage between the r7 and r8 suggest that the r7 has quite a lot more noise at high-ISO settings.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

I have never used the R8 so I can't really compare the two but generally a full-frame camera will have better low light capabilities over an aps-c...my R6 outperforms the R7 in low light.

[@myblacklab7]

@@ScooterMediaVideos Thank you! I guess the R8 sensor is the same as the one on one of the R6's (I can't remember if it was the R6 or R6 Mark II). So that answers my question.

Np! You can change the shutter speed to whatever you want to, but to get the most cinematic looking video you should always have your shutter speed set to double whatever the frames per second are...24fps=1\48, 30fps=1/60, 60fps=1/120, etc. This gives you the proper motion blur in your video and gives it that cinematic look...this is a general rule but feel free to experiment and check out the difference.

Hello, I don't have any experience with the Sony ZVE10 but I still think that the Canon R7 is probably the better camera of the two. I believe the Sony is made mostly for vlogging and the Canon is a more well rounded camera. I have used the Canon R7 with both the 18-150mm lens as well as the 16mm f2.8 lens and they are both great with the camera. The Canon also has 4:2:2 color profile so if you do any color grading you will be able to push it further. Just my opinion, I hope it helps!

[@SophistiK333]

How do I keep these same settings but shoot in slow mo?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Just change the Movie Rec. size to 4k 59.94 which will put the camera into 60 frames per second. Then change your shutter speed to 1/125 and you're good to go. Then you can slow the footage down to 50% on a 30 fps timeline or down to 40% on a 24 fps timeline in post. If you want it even slower enable the High Frame Rate option in the Movie Rec Quality section and then change the shutter speed to 1/250...this will put the camera into HD 120fps but there will be no audio recorded at this frame rate.

Hi why is my menu different from yours? I just bought it new

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

If you have a European version of the camera, it will have different frame rates like 25fps and 50fps.

[@DouglasOliveira-v7s]

Thank you. Now, after have been schooled I will probably have the hystrogram activated in all the productions.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

You’re welcome! The histogram definitely comes in handy when filming. 👍

Since others have already mentioned AF, i would add that R7 is going to produce a 16:9 video, and you didn't say anything about that (your sample seems to be anamorphic). And where you go slow motion, you did shoot it in 60 or 120 fps, didn't you?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Yes, these are the settings to get you started if you are trying to achieve a cinematic look with the R7. I generally use the default autofocus settings but you are welcome to use whatever you would like. I just added black bars to the top and bottom of the video to make it look more like a movie as there is no anamorphic. Yes, if there are slow motion shots in there they were probably shot at 60fps...again just wanted to show what the little R7 is capable of. 👍

[@maxsam201]

@ScooterMediaVideos Cool. I thought you managed to do anamorphic on R7, was curious to learn that.

[@alexcreation7877]

Please mention the lens?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

For the opening sequence of the video I'm using the Sigma Art 18-35mm f1.8 and the RF-S 18-150mm. For the part when I'm doing the settings it's the Sigma Art 30mm f1.4.

[@ogphoto]

What BRAND and size of SD card did you use that will allow the camera to write at 4K and give you 4 hours????

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

I have been using Lexar 256 Gb V30 cards and have been very happy with them and they were relatively cheap when on sale.

[@skr_e]

When I want to save the video on my phone, it refuses to save because the Canon log is on . How do I avoid this problem?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Hmmm, I haver never tried saving Canon log footage straight to a phone because I always edit it first on a computer. Are you planning to edit the footage on your phone?

[@crmpadvertmedia]

nice too much helpfull

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Thanks you, and thanks for watching!

[@alonsogarcia8785]

Gracias por el video, tengo una 70D i una 200D... quiero cambiar a R7 pero me preocupa que salvando el 4K la diferencia no sea mucha. Saludos desde España.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Hello, I had the 60D many years ago and these new mirrorless cameras are just so much more advanced in every way compared to the older dslr cameras. You get 4K, the ability to shoot log, amazing autofocus and so many other new features. Cheers from Canada!

[@md1983]

I have version 1.3.1 and I don't have 29.97fps, why?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

In North America we have 24 fps and 30fps, in Europe and other parts of the world the frame rate is 25 fps.

[@ajv1068]

On movie rec size I don't have 23.98p 🤷‍♂️

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

It depends on the camera you are using as well as where in the world you live. In North America we have 24 and 30 frames per second and in other parts of the world it's 25fps.

[@nes.torfernandez]

I only opened this video for the custom WB setting on this camera and he just skipped it lol thanks

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

No problem! You can't set the white balance until you know what the lighting temperature is going to be where you shoot.

[@nes.torfernandez]

@@ScooterMediaVideos Right, that’s what I would call common sense, but you’re the one reviewing the camera and supposedly telling people the ‘best cinematic video settings,’ whatever that means. FYI, the best mode for shooting video related to white balance is in custom mode, and it’s a shame that you didn’t even talk about that

[@theredroom5471]

.... personally, I get down with Auto.... but to each their own I guess.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

Absolutely nothing wrong with using auto but if you want to get the most out of your camera, you definitely want to take it out of auto and learn how to use it.

[@theredroom5471]

@@ScooterMediaVideos I only use it for selfies with that Big, Hello Grandma kinda smiles! They work great for band shots! My ISO settings are whether the booth door is open or not.

[@jaysilverheals4445]

why isnt the camera already set on the correct things?? wont that be the case in the future? instead a person has to go in and change hundreds of settings??

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

You can put the camera in Auto and it’s good to go but if you want to get the footage to look like a cinematic movie then you have to go in and make some adjustments.

[@nikolovflyer8146]

Clarity ?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

???

[@juliensimracer]

nothing about AF ?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

No, autofocus doesn’t make any difference to the cinematic look and I haven’t touched it since I got the camera, it’s been on its default setting and works great.

[@juliensimracer]

@@ScooterMediaVideos I think it does, since I've got some info, you can make the AFmore sticky to a things/person it has trigged, you can slow the AF lense move speed and other things

[@mollyperlmutter]

I don't even have the option to select fine 4K.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

If it’s an R7 you should, just make sure you are in video mode.

[@mariposa.2507]

I have absolutely no idea of filming. I just recognized in A mode that the camera chooses the frame rate as shutter speed, not the double frame rate - 24 fps will bi 1/25 s. Why?

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

I'm not sure I understand the question...if you use the camera in A mode (green square with A in the middle) and use it in video mode, everything is in automatic mode and you can still change the movie size/fps in the menu setting. There are other modes in the camera like TV which is a shutter priority mode and you adjust the shutter speed and the camera automatically adjusts everything else.

[@mariposa.2507]

@@ScooterMediaVideos sorry, not automatic mode, I meant Av.

[@ScooterMediaVideos]

@@mariposa.2507 the Av mode is aperture priority mode which allows you to set the aperture of the camera and the camera will adjust the settings to match...the thing that you were probably seeing in this setting is the exposure compensation which can be adjusted to change the exposure a bit.
