iPhone 11 Video Testing. Bacon & Fire.

[@RedArrowTinker]

It seems you're really liking that stove/grill. You've been using it on several recent videos. You're really tempting me to get one. Much more portable than a Smokey Joe, lol! The long-handled titanium spoon is pretty useful too. I almost ordered one once, but passed on it. I may have to reconsider. Your bacon and eggs looked delicious, although I prefer my eggs cooked in butter. Thanks for sharing your new Apple toy as well.

[@annajo1963]

Great video! The iPhone 11 is much clearer. I’m impressed.

[@48Volts]

Liked and subscribed I am trying to do vids as well but you are clearly a Master excactly what people want to see love it man keep doing your thing!!

Hi, Kevin died Jan 8th, heart attack. I still miss him now. Stay well.

[@59chevt]

Kevin the video quality looked great sounded great .

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@ST-ut4dm]

Nice video.....so you finally got a new iPhone lol I always see in your videos for years you have a old iPhone what one was it? iPhone 6?

[@MegaWoodswalker]

That's an iPhone SE. Really liked it as the small size and power usage was nice to pack. But the little screen was a PITA. Thanks for watching.

[@ST-ut4dm]

@@MegaWoodswalker me to have one as a back up...love the size.

[@highdesert50]

Thanks for sharing the video/audio tools you use in the woods including the past vids. But, you really need an aPhone -- aroma phone.

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks for watching!

[@dougzirkle5951]

Hey, man. I’ve ‘liked’ it, now I’ll watch it!

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@jacquiblanchard3131]

What a neat video! I'm on the hunt for a new camera and am considering a cell phone instead. I sure appreciate this insight, Kevin. I liked the overhead shot at the end, btw. ;) Thanks!

[@MegaWoodswalker]

It has pros and cons. The primary pros being AF/AE and image stabilization. The auto focus seems amazing. The auto exposure is good and both can be locked/moved though I didn't do that as wanted to show auto only video. Like the fire triangle exposure has one. Shutter/ISO/Aperture. For example in the video I used the AX53 to shoot the intro speech and assembly of the rig. I have multiple such rigs and accessories. Maybe another video? Also want to do an audio test of multiple mics etc etc of the 11. In any case a part of my face was blown out because the sun was striking me in one area causing overexposure. The solution is to activate the exposure zebras (lines showing over exposure). I can move the exposure point using the touch screen (the iPhone can do the same). But this may overly darken some areas. I have an adjustable ND filter (sun glasses for a camera). I could screw that on and adjust the shutter speed. Shooting 30 fps so would use 1/60 shutter speed. However there is the problem. If the sun should be blocked by a tree as it (or rather the earth) moves now I have to adjust everything again. Out in the full sun this isn't an issue. So often I say screw it..... just KZbin not filming a wedding. LOL! But the iPhone does much of this better on it's own. However other cameras have good auto focus and exposure as well. The primary down side to the phone or a Gopro (most camcorders as well) is the small light/image sensor. So much smaller than the one in my Nikon D5300 (which has no usable AF in video or focus peaking to lock that in easily manually). So the dynamic range and low light will be limited. The iPhone is using computational photography however sometimes it just screws up. Doesn't seem to capture fire colors properly at night. Has lots on noise in the shadows (small sensor) in low light. But the iPhone 11 is the best cellphone camera I have seen for video. It's image stabilization is good as well and this is a big deal. It does seem like the perfect outdoors content camera is an impossible dream. I have been looking at the Sony A6400 for tripod use. Need something to replace my old D5300 as it's a PITA to shoot video but like the look of a larger sensor.

[@chiefkirk]

Brother any video where there's Bacon frying and Eggs scramblin is a great video. Oh yeah, the camera did a great job. Thanks for sharing Kevin.

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@crazydaddy5150]

I love the smell of Sacred Bacon in the morning it reminds me of Victory and Breakfast. LOL Keep up the good work Walker!!

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@korkalba8658]

Woodswalker, .... You have a video on that Cylinder heat exchanger you have on your woodstove? .... it looks like it works really well, might come in handy on my adventures if i can find a video on it.

[@WORRO]

That phone does an awesome job Buddy! Good video and sound. Thumbs up for sure~John

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@redsorgum]

The camera looks good, I like the phone setup you have. 🥓🥓🥓🥓👍 The two thumbs down, are probably still using flip phones.

[@MegaWoodswalker]

LOL! Or vegans.

[@bonsaitreehouse5534]

Awesome set up.

[@jeffrichards5106]

The video and sound quality is great for a phone camera. Never owned an IPhone, just Samsungs. Wondering how long you can film, how much it sucks up your battery and if you had to get a seperate Micro card to put in your phone? Never tried filming on any of my phones. Yum to the Bacon once again!

[@monkeyingout]

Apple dont accept micro sd cards.

[@MegaWoodswalker]

I didn't do any timed tests but the battery life shooting video seemed ok. I am sure if this was done in 4K it could of been more taxing on the battery/memory as is the case with my other dedicated cameras. No Micro sd cards for Apple (always disliked that) but there are options which allows files to be transferred to a card on the fly. It helps spending the extra 50 to get the 128 gig version.

[@jeffrichards5106]

@@MegaWoodswalker thanks for the info Kevin. Can't wait for your hot tenting videos this year.

[@MrHomolka]

Literally spent the last few days deciding if I finally want to make the switch from Android to Apple (never owned one) so this video was nice to see. Quality seems fantastic. Also, I work PT over at Wolfe Park/Lake and I'm always looking out for you in the trails 👀 lol

[@MrHomolka]

@@A.Salgado7 just got the iPhone 11 a couple weeks ago and I'm loving it! iMessage is outstanding, there is no comparison to sms. It also solved the Bluetooth display issue I'd been having for the past year or so. Somewhere along the line Android dropped the ball and there are tons of forums describing the same issue on various phones with no solution.

[@MrHomolka]

@@A.Salgado7 I do miss the picture-in-picture feature for KZbin that was very handy but definitely not a deal breaker

[@unchained20000000]

You are being totally consumed by the dark side, Walker. The swineshith is turning you into Lord Vader.

[@doctoordan]

Sure would be easier with one gadget. 👍🔥 Thanks for the sacred bacon 🥓👍

great video

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Thanks!

[@tphvictims5101]

The audio on the iPhone wasn’t good at all. Maybe it’s the mike ? The final overhead was anemic ?

[@MegaWoodswalker]

The overhead shot was native (just the phone) no external mic.I think the native audio for a phone when used in the woods given all the background wind noise etc etc is ok (within the context of a cellphone) but an external shotgun or better yet a lav sounds better.

[@mudhole9]

bacon starts about 15:05, awesome

[@drewlucero3916]

Awesome ❤️📸🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓📸🎈

[@tphvictims5101]

What are we up to ?

[@davidwilson7849]

You might want to try a little water in the skillet when the bacon goes on. It evaporates quickly and buys you a little bit of fat rendering. I find I don’t scorch and stick as much,

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Will give that a try next time. Thanks for watching!

[@vagabond-yj8pn]

David Wilson I don’t know why they don’t come out with the portable lightweight Teflon coated pan for backpackers. Especially for backpackers because it be so much easier to clean.

@@Koji-888 You mean like this.kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGPCkqtqbMiYhLc If I am very very concerned about about pack weight/pulk or don't have another pan available that's what I do. However I don't like the carbonized black stuff that gets scraped out of the pan into the eggs. So willing to pack the extra 1.6 ounces at times and clean the extra pan.

1x definitely He’s filming Star Wars.

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Interestingly the wide 0.5x seems to match what my eyes were seeing in terms of the field of view however the 1x was more pleasing to me as has better low light and image stabilization. Faster glass with a lower F stop.
