[@Operationcarp]

What a great video idea! Well put together and explained as usual. Thanks Carl and Alex! Absolute legends

[@trevorcornes1056]

Brilliant information Carl . Just what everybody needed to know 👍

[@theguernseybirdnerd7111]

Great stuff, guys. Always amazing to get a snapshot (of the amount of work, prep and knowhow that goes into every detail of your content. You've explained some pretty complex details, here, without being too techy. Perfectly pitched for your viewers. An absolute win. Brilliant.

[@ja5on26]

Great video lads keep these coming 🔥🔥🔥

[@Bulldog2108]

Great stuff. I have a Samsung s21 ultra and all Samsung come with voice activation. With mine you say either smaile or cheese and it takes. As a sea angler we don't get the luxury of time with the fish so getting good photos alone is challenging. I take a cheap tripod I purchased from amazon and set my phone up on there. The results are okay. I only ever use the rear camera on my phone because it is far superior to the front facing but you obviously cannot see what your are shooting. This is why as you mentioned I make myself small within the shot and crop in. You photos are always fantastic. As is your videography. Great video. Thanks for sharing

[@aquaticcolledgefishing]

Never thought about the bank stick. Simple but accurate 👍

[@markkingston9346]

What a well explained video. This was perfectly explained The only thing i will say is that, when using an external flash at night mounted on the horse shoe, you dont need as high shutter speeds. you can easliy get away with 1/80 or 1/100 shutter speed and still have crisp images. Well done lads this really was a fantastically explained video.

[@fishingtutorials]

Cheers Mark! We shoot our flash images at 1/100 but when using a LED light it just isn't bright enough for us to do that so we have to shoot at 1/60 to 1/80. :)

[@BasicFishingNZ]

haha great tutorial. i usually get a screenshot from my gorpo or phone but its always nice to have someone who knows how to take pics properly.

I struggle to understand how to use my Canon full frame camera and reverted back to my Samsung s21 phone as its easier. But I'm now in the process of getting a 50mm lense for my Canon and giving this a go. Great information thanks

[@callumwilliams4578]

Just starting to get into the photography side of fishing. Have you ever done a video on night shot tutorial?

[@alfiegriffiths9571]

Yes

[@LefevreCharlie]

Nice video indeed! What about lightroom presets and edits? How do you make them look like those Nash, Korda, Fox pictures, etc?

[@user-nl7vz4wt3t]

Carl & Alex. (sorry for the long message) You guys always come up with the goods on here! Firstly merry Christmas guys! My question is centered around wanting to buy something that gives me the highest quality images, currently using a smart phone which serves me well! However I'm put off wanting to go down a camera & tripod route because of the bulky nature of carrying extra equipment. How do you travel light whilst carrying cameras lighting equipment & tripods please?

[@adamspencer9103]

its annoying on my dslr as my screen dont flip so gotta bluetooth it to my phone but my phone to my camera look different so its ruined pictures before and its really annoying! great video!

[@imraduin]

I use a Nikon P900 for nature photography because of the amazing zoom capability but I find it hard to get a good colour balance. It usually gets too pale or too shadowy. Anyone got some tips?

[@benjaminmoufflet8956]

Hi mate, i'm a french angler and I couldn't figure out the name of the mobile application you are using. Thank you

[@mateuszkysik495]

What camera are you recording?

[@petekeightley2973]

I'm a Samsung phone user, S21+, have been for years and the last couple they've added a feature called Self Take and can activate just saying the word "shoot" (so no need for extra apps) with the Self take mode it takes various types of pictures and a short videos and then you can choose the best and delete the rest. I'm interested in selfie fish adapter you're using. Where can this be purchased? As always guys, thanks for the video.

[@rywieldsrods93]

I had the s10 traded it in for s21 as I needed this specific mode but the s10 has it also 🤣 didn't realise until me mom showed me as I gave her my s10 never the less the picture quality is loadsssss better x

[@fishingtutorials]

The adapter can be found at the link in our video's description. The Samsung phone sounds good!!!

[@StelmachsWorld]

7:01 personally i prefer the 1.4, it focuses right in on the fish

[@user-zp5bt5pv6x]

Nice

[@Palepal90]

Protip: By using external intervalometer, the camera will refocus after each shot, that way you dont need to find correct focus (by using bankstip) before shooting. 👌

[@fishingtutorials]

Sounds great if you have a camera with autofocus which knows to detect the fish rather than the person's face!

[@Palepal90]

You can do it with your Sony 👌 just remember to disable the face detection, that way the camera will focus the fish. I also struggled with this same problem with my Sony A7III. With the inbuilt intervalometer, there is no option to refocus between shots (I really dont know why). You have to use external one, luckily there are plenty options in the market, and they are not too expensive. 🙏

[@Palepal90]

Also keep up the good work 👌 we really like your fishing content over here in Finland. If you for some reason decide to come visit Finland someday, give us a call. We are doing one of the biggest fishing KZbin channels here, called Urpoerämies Productions. Carp fishing in Finland is epic..

Is there a substitute for something that holds the phone? I don’t think they ship to the United States? :(

[@ashleygrant3131]

What’s it called? A selfieFish? Can’t find the product you’re referencing at time 1:29? Are there any products similar to it, that you recommend, available to me for sale/purchase in the United States, like via Amazon or something?

[@fishingtutorials]

Ah, yes I’m not sure they are sold in the USA. Potentially search for a phone tripod, or phone clamp? Our bank sticks are on 3/8th of an inch threads, not sure about the stateside equivalent. Sorry!

[@EricPollarrd]

Need something which has a screen to see yourself in order to use the rear facing much higher quality camera of a phone though...?

Unfortenately your video will kill a lot of fish because all the idiots will hold the fish out of the water way too long but for people that know how to do c/r it's a great video.

No need for an app for iphone or Android. Little tip, okay google, take a photo for me. Or hey siri
