Gyro Metadata Stabilized From Commercial Shoot - BMPCC 6K, 6K G2, 6K Pro - Davinci Resolve 18

[@westwolf117]

I tested mine out yesterday and its great. One cool thing I discovered is the correlation between the 'strength' amount in post and the 'safe area guide' in the camera monitor menu is almost exactly the same! So if the handheld is very very shaky and you set the safe area guide to 70% and the gyro stabilization to .700 strength it will match up the framing in post. I don't know if this is helpful for anyone but it is what it is.

[@MtZionMediaPro]

Wow! Thank you for that. I'll test it out & see how it works for me!

[@mineralsound]

You can adjust the safe area though right?

[@UpHillCinema]

This is awesome advice.

[@UpHillCinema]

Yes

[@Vibingwithfred]

What was your shutter angle and frame rate?

[@mineralsound]

Here's the deal for anyone wondering: all the Pocket 6K cameras have a built-in gyroscope, but that data wasn't accessible until now. You can use a firmware update to access it on previous models, or get it with the P6K G2. With the new Resolve beta release you can now use that data to stabilize your footage.

[@UpHillCinema]

That is correct.

[@peteblazar5515]

Note. Pocket 4K has build-in gyroscope sensor too.

[@mineralsound]

@@peteblazar5515 This is news to me! Was it unlocked in the firmware update as well?

[@peteblazar5515]

@@mineralsound Yes, firmware 7.9 is needed.

[@SereneBobcat]

You've gotten the best results I've seen. Did you put your shutter angle at 90 degrees?

[@UpHillCinema]

This was at 50fps and 180 degree. It does much better having more frames.

[@misasis]

@@UpHillCinema Because motion blur causes micro-jitters, adjusting the shutter frame between 90-45 degrees is the best practice when using gyro for stability. I've been using SteadXp for the past six years.

[@ANamelessNetwork]

​@@misasis How do you compare steadxp to thi new firmware? Do you still use steadxp?

[@tlfilms207]

Can u explain what this gyro is? Is it stabilization option in resolve?

[@lukasz8r]

Yes this is a new stabilisation option in DR18 beta 5

[@peteblazar5515]

It is gyroscopic sensor inside camera and its values are continuously recorded into B-raw file. DR 18b5 can use these values for image stabilization (compensate unwanted movement).

[@akcivan]

it would be good if you didn't slow stabilized shoot to compare. But now its totally not before/after look

[@MtZionMediaPro]

Both clips are slowed.

[@UpHillCinema]

Exactly

[@ubacow7109]

It doesnt like somehing its not great, its basically just OIS level stab
