Such a solid video! I’m a MASSIVE advocate for mobile videography and I can back everything you’ve said 110%. Not a flex, but ive been super fortunate to win 2 global travel competitions from two 1 minute video submissions that were 90% shot on an iPhone 8 (the rest was on Gozpro for action and drone for aerials). Mobile filmmaking is here to stay! Keep it up brother

[@PietsMusings]

Very useful tips. I have to admit, that pan on the landscape - mostly I cannot help myself out in the mountains. (Or even when I was so lucky to be in Canada!)
