    Can definitely see more detail on the carbon fiber with the Sony a6700 when the filter is off (compared to the S10e). Even with the filter on, it seems comparable to the S10e in that regard.
    As for the rest, It seems like the a6700's contrast is slightly better, but my eyes are too poor to tell.
    Excited about the new equipment!

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah, it's not really a "fair" test because of the filter on the a6700, but as long as this new camera looks at least as good with the filter installed, that's all I can hope for because it cuts out so much glare. The Galaxy S10 cheats a bit by opening up the shutter for longer than it realistically should, resulting in a lot of motion blur... but maybe that's just what it takes in such poor lighting.

      Honestly, it's not just the image quality, it's also the fact that it can mount a polarizing filter, and the fact that it can record a file type that my video editor doesn't hate, haha. Cell phone videos are pretty good, but I'm learning there are reasons why movies aren't shot on cell phones. Too bad, it's really convenient.

    You can "fix" the vibration caused by the weapon by using something like a quadcopter/drone prop balancer (basically two level straight bars, the weapon goes on a solid axle with each end on the bar and then just keep rotating it and meticulously shave off bits until it doesn't has a point it wants to turn to) until it is perfectly balanced, but a couple of good hits will probably undo that so I'm not sure if it's worth the effort if it's just a tiny bit unbalanced.

  • @freakyjason477

    In this case the glare also adds contrast between Cheesecake and the floor. The S10e seems less "pastel". Although the Sony might have the better shutter speed and be more crisp, the S10e is easier on the eyes. Maybe use both? The S10e for general footage and the Sony for the slo-mo shots?

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I plan to use both, at least initially. We'll see whose footage wins!

  • @JustCuzRobotics
    @JustCuzRobotics 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    FYI for motion being filmed its generally advised to film at a shutter speed twice the frame rate so 1/120 or 1/125 for 60fps

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yep, I actually tried 1/125 before this test, but the image was really dark, and the aperture and ISO were about as far as I could reasonably bump them. Stupid polarizing filter.
      I wondered what my phone was doing to get such a bright image with such little noise, aside from the advantage of not having filter in front of it. By looking at the motion blur frame by frame, I determined that my phone's shutter speed is likely 1/60 (at least in this lighting), since there is no gap between each successive motion blur from one frame to the next. Despite how poor this practice is for shutter speed at a given frame rate, its footage still looks okay, so I figured setting my Sony camera to 1/80 was a reasonable sacrifice to let in more light. I might have to fiddle with this on the day of each tournament, but if it means cutting out the glare on the side of the arena, it's probably worth it.

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yep, checked some of my old tournament videos, and the motion blur doesn't have any gaps from one frame to the next, which indicates that my phone's shutter speed is likely 1/60. Little tricks like these make phones seem better than they are, although it's worked for me so far on this channel, so maybe that's actually the right approach to getting a nice bright image, we'll see.

    1. Did you upload at 1080p or am I just early?
    2. Polarized filter for the *win*.
    3. That's about it.

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I actually record in 4K but upload in 1080p. This is so I can zoom in in my editing software while still having 1080p video. I do this a lot to frame the shot and zoom in on slow motion hits.

    • @alexsalchemy
      @alexsalchemy  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The Samsung is cheating in a couple of ways: it doesn't have a polarizing filter which blocks some of the precious light, and it's using a slower shutter speed to pull in even more light. I could match the shutter speed on my new camera, but I kind of want that crisp slow-mo, so I'm seeing just how dark of an image I can tolerate.

    Were you just standing in the room during this test? If so, that’s pretty dangerous. I know Cheesecake is pretty darn reliable, but if something went wrong while the weapon was active, you’d be looking at some serious danger.
    Safety is a huge problem for new builders, and while I’m sure you took precautions, the viewers don’t know that, and newcomers might spin up a kitbot outside a test box thinking it’s okay because they saw it from an experienced builder like you. I don’t mean to be a buzzkill, but instilling safety practices into people early is important, and you’ve got a lot of people who watch the channel that have never built a bot before

      To be clear, I was standing behind a wide wooden barrier below the frame of the camera, cutting off that entire side of the room. Probably should have made that more clear in the video. Added it to the start of the description.

      I know you're not asking me but you definitely don't need a college education to get into combat robots. TH-cam has tons of resources if you want to learn starting off with a kit bot or progress your way into designing your own custom bots in CAD. It's not about showcasing what you know, It's about figuring out what you don't.
