As someone who loves watching your videos for my amateur hobby of photography, while my full time work is being an Airline Pilot this made me chuckle.
Ha! Not much photography in this video but I have more coming soon. :)
Airline pilot and amateur photographer here also! I had to do a double take when I saw in on my feed. Love it!
@@LeighAndRaymond And...a THIRD airline pilot and long-time subscriber had to watch this as well! Do you and/or Raymond fly real airplanes as well?
Almost spit my drink when this showed up in my feed! It's so cool to see another shared interest besides photography haha. I also have a simulator setup (PC, VR, rudders, yoke, bass transducers, fans w/telemetry, etc etc) and enjoy using it quite often and flying to random places. I also have one for driving simulation which I've spent thousands of hours in over the years.
I'd love to have a nice set of throttles for flying Cessna's like yours.
I really love that you've posted this video. 😁
I've found myself getting into photography and photo editing BECAUSE of flight simulators. I've been an avid flight sim enthusiast for about eight years now. My photo editing started with trying to make my Prepar3D screenshots look more realistic, but now with Microsoft Flight Simulator and its incredible visuals, it's a game changer. I like looking for good opportunities in the sim to make it look even more realistic. I've discovered that there are plenty of opportunities for creativity in making even the most subtle of edits that most people wouldn't notice, but lend *that much* more to making the screenshots become something that look like they could've come from a real camera. I love that flying my virtual aircraft has inspired me to learn photo editing skills, and in so doing has sharpened my eye for details in other, non-video game photos that I've edited since.
What? No way! I never would of thought. As a long time follower I also love aviation. I have almost the exact same simulator setup. I also have a student pilot license. Loved this video and I just double love you now. Lol 😆
Merci!
lol, I didn't make you for a flight simmer. Those are my two passions too: photography and flightsim. I have been a simmer since 1984, since the first version of MSFS. I ran it on a PC junior setup. You do have a nice set up. I will take a closer look at the loupedeck. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks. This vid did it's work. I now very much want one!
I currently have a full set of flight sim, I am currently using the MSFS fenix A320. I was always looking for Radio panel I could use.
The Loupedeck CT is a gem - I can't imagine Lightroom photo editing without it. As you say, so well made, and the customisable options are immense. Having used the Loupedeck and Loupedeck+ since they were initially, released the CT is a most welcome progression. And suits the Apple and Adobe products admirably. And just to add, the Photoshop compatibility adds to the efficiency and time saving the Loupedeck brings to my workflow
This definitely had commercial written all over it
This is so cool! I love flight sim
I like how the "mechanical" interaction between user and computer goes back to what worked 30 years ago when I used the IBM CADAM system to design electronic circuits. I had two pads with programmable buttons and a pad with knobs, aside from a trackball with 30 programmable keys. Never used the keyboard. I'm looking at the Elgato Stream Desk XL these days to do the same thing, mainly for meetings. Nice to see that the MS Simulator is still active. Quick recovery with that finger.
Thanks for the well wishes. I'm already out of the splint and I can almost type normally!
Love it. I am a gaming nerd to. But im playing elite Dangerous in vr. And some other flight sim in vr. Cheers from Sweden.
If you like MS Flight Sim, have you ever tried Elite Dangerous? That cockpit and Loupedeck looks like it'd be awesome in any flight sim game.
Elite Dangerous is absolutely incredible in VR. It's one of the most incredible experiences I've had and for a space nut it's almost certainly as close as I'll get to doing actual spaceflight haha.
I haven’t tried Elite Dangerous but we do own it. The Loupedeck would be super handy for it because there are so many controls!
Wow! I got a Leica Q2 because of your channel. I also have been on flight simulator for 20+ years. It's fantastic to know you have a fly simulator passion. I am working on my private pilot license right now. Goal is to travel and do photography!
Gosh I love the Q2. Good luck in your studies. Maybe I'll see you in the air one day!
Cool video, but looking at you the yoga ball chair is no surprise.
You guys should try space engineers!
Thanks for deciding to share the non-photocentric content. Always nice to see what interests people have.
Wow! We are certainly kindred spirits! I do landscape photography, (Canon R5, various lenses (RF15-35mm) nature and wildlife, (mostly with my RF100-500) AND am an avid simmer! My fave aircraft are the Flight FX Cirrus Vision Jet G2, and the Flightsim Studio Embraer E175! How cool! I may pick up that Loupdeck CT, looks like it works pretty cool! How cool! Best wishes to you and Ray! ♥
You guys should go for your PPLs. There’s nothing like the real thing.
I wish it was possible to trade some of my aviation knowledge for your video and editing knowledge. Flying airplanes isn’t difficult but learning video techniques with camera gimbals and compiling footage to tell a story equals being a fish out of water.
Ha - I feel the opposite about which is easier!
Nice sim chair. Ergonomics seems to be of interest to you. You may want to lower your keyboard, mouse, and Loupedeck with a "keyboard tray" for your wrist issue. Also, the center height of your beautiful monitor should be raised with a VESA mount to the average height of both Raymond's and your eyes.
Good news. Your monitor may then seem high but for avid sim pilots, there is a wonderful solution. May I suggest the TH-cam video "MSFS: Amp Up Your Sim with these FREE Panels". Try just one 13.3" capacitive touchscreen running off your CPU (save GPU). You will be surprised by the immersion in MSFS and how the expanded desktop provides for better day-to-day productivity. I use two 13.3" and a 7" touchscreens with a Knobster :)
Nb. Looking for the video's name above to share I discovered Russ also did this video "MSFS Surround Vs. New Multiview: The Best Sim Solution". He covers FOV but his diagram shows the correct centered height.
I wonder if it would work with Elite Dangerous, i know the stream deck does. If you haven't, you should definitely play elite dangerous.
Helicopters and gliders are in the new update of Flight Simulator next month!
Have you had a go in a real plane yet?
I have a feeling I’ll be spending all my free time on the helicopter tutorials! I haven’t flown a real plane… yet. ;)
You've got some nice tools and hobbies. I use DaVinci Resolve for my video editing. For hardware, I use DaVinci's Speed Editor and the Elgato Stream Deck XL. One of my favorite hobbies has become my occupation for the last 40 years. I started working on multi-million dollar air-to-air military combat simulators when I was younger. Later in life, I was involved in the construction and testing of these full motion simulators. For the last 20 years, I've been maintaining and testing them for a major airline. It's nice when one of your hobbies becomes your occupation.
I bought a Loupedeck live for the flightsim. It’s great. I also use it for lightroom and other apps.
I have MFS 2020 do you have a video that show How download, install and setup all the software for MFS 2020 and showing how to use this device with all the software.
Great when you can get one of these for free, well out my price range for use in photoshop or MSFS 2020.
A solution for that gaffer tape is 3m self adhesive velcro.I found some in a local news/stationary store.the easiest way to use it is to select the lengths and stick them to the base of the device you wish to stick down,then peel off the backing paper and firmly press down onto the clean surface.I have the same yoke as you and rather than mess with the fiddly throttle mount,I used the velcro and its really firmly stuck.I also have used it for my new pc case (no cd mount) I just bought a portable cd and mounted it directly to the side glass panel.I also used it to mount a powered usb hub to the top of the pc case.........................
We tried Velcro and the controls were still wobbly when we used them! They needed something to support them vertically. I'm certain we'll come up with a better solution and I will for sure share it in a video. :)
I'm a hobby photographer. I had been thinking of getting one of these for flight simming, but now I need to go see how you use it for your editing. I mostly use Raw Therapee and GIMP, so not sure if I'll see the same benefits.
The only way anyone can get their hands on an airplane and not have to buy one. I also suffer from motion sickness and this is the only way I can fly safely. Congrats on a great hobby!
Is is able to differentiate between different aircraft within the sim? As in, can it bring up a different set of buttons for individual aircraft? A320/A310/An-225 for example.
I mainly watch your channel (I am subscriber) for photography. But you show your flight simulator setup, really neat. I don't use Lightroom at the moment, but will check out what other software Loupdeck CT works on.
I wish you could make your own software aware profiles. Like if I want to use Loupedeck on a Mac for Blender, Lightwave, or Modo - just have it immediately go into those as easily as it does C1, FCP, or Logic.
Awesome video
So, was Raymond always behind the camera?
He was operating the camera in this video during the moving shots of me flying.
You are a TECH girl for sure. Just curious about the flight simulator. Can you pilot a WW2 B-17 or any other classic aircraft if you wanted? Happy landings.
There are so many different aircraft options you can add in the marketplace. I haven't searched for the B-17 specifically, but I know there are P-51 and P-38 variations!
This is pretty cool, although I think your setup would get elevated quite a bit by using a eye tracker.
I have VR for that. :)
VR is the way to go! I never fly flat screen, VR is so immersive.
Damn that is one HUGE monitor. I used to love Microsofts Flight Simulator. In realistic mode I crashed a lot. LOL I really loved the F-16 type military sims. F-16 Fighting Falcon was a fav of mine, the book was massive & even came in a Hark binder. Do you or Raymond ever play the Quake series, Fragging at it's best. LOL Could you use this for a Nascar car simulator?
I've never played Quake but you could use it for a Nascar sim!
Nice vid. I'm a Loupedeck fan myself and a space/flight sim addict. Love the monitor, can you send a link for that one too?
You can find my monitor here: amzn.to/3fXPry6 (it's INCREDIBLE!)
Have you tried X-Plane? If so, how do they compare?
I haven’t used X-Plane yet but we do own it. Raymond says… The flight model in X-Plane is better but the scenery is much better in MSFS. :)
@@LeighAndRaymond :D haha always the same about x plane and msfs :D...but many pilots think also msfs is better for general aviation haha....welll...so many different opinions...love it that you are also into flightsimulation (:
I typically edit large amounts of shots in one sitting as I’m a real estate photog. I run LR and PS at the same time, so when I dump an image into PS from LR will the buttons on the Loupedeck switch instantly as PS comes to the foreground on my Windows desktop, and vice-versa?
It does. When you bring software to the front, the Loupedeck automatically switches. :)
is there a way to see you fly? I would like to see you fly.
We are planning more flight sim content and I'll definitely include flying!
I bought the loupedeck and was thoroughly disappointed. It was too difficult to set up and program profiles, and on top of that, it did not work consistently with Premier Pro or Photoshop. It would not change profiles automatically when switching to the application. I had to go into the loupdeck software and manually change it. Not a time saver at all. It also worked sporadically in MSFS. So, I returned it. Not ready for prime time i am afraid.
Yeah! Flight sims!
Yea! LOL! Russia is winning, and you can't stop it. :)
Get a VR headset… if you can learn to fly it… you can likely fly a real plane.
☺️
💚👍💪
Leigh, what happened to your little finger?
I smashed it. It was a mess but it’s healing well. :)
I know of Leigh "The Snapchick", I don't follow, but I do know she is in the photography world. Due to the stated, it feels really odd to add flight simming to this channel. No hate, just odd.
Holy Botox!!!
