Thanks PED loved that behind the scenes one. I was away for a couple of weeks and been catching up on your videos a great little collection. Have a great break!
The quality of your videos is mega on a TV as opposed to my usual phone viewing. It's very clear that you have the best equipment for the job and the consummate skill to use it! Mahalo for this comprehensive BTS!
Always striving for perfection, that's what makes your channel and it's content so popular. The new gimble will definatley take it to the next level...
Hello, Peter thanks for the answer. I do filming for my wife's architectural firm I film in 8k and I use Da Vinci Resolve to down-convert to 4k and Final Cut Pro on a Mac Pro.
Hello Mr Greaves! Having been a channel subscriber since your earlier years, it is very clear to me that you have always strived for high quality within your videos and most of that is down to learning new techniques or finessing techniques and processes once learned - like any other skill. You have come on leaps and bounds since those early days and this clever new device will add yet more polish to already high quality production levels. Whilst I’m not as much of a petrol-head as I was in my earlier years, I am still interested in cars and love driving. And though I don’t like all the cars you review, I have always enjoyed your presenting style and content. Its just like meeting up with a mate and gassing about cars. Keep on doing what you are doing, Ped. Best wishes from Wirral, as ever.
Brilliant insight into the world of a You Tuber. Very interesting and informative. Can't believe the price, I thought it would nearer £500 at least. Thanks Pedro. Much appreciated.
Wow what a great video of quite simply very important equipment for yourself but very interesting too & OMG what a tool that is that for your phone!! Enjoyed that very much indeed PetrolPed Pete!! 👌🏻👍🏻😁
@@PetrolPed well depending on how you review it as I'm sure you will be doing a video on how it's going with it but I'm definitely interested as it certainly looks like a fair old decent piece of kit!! 👌🏻👍🏻😁
I now watch most of your videos on a largish TV rather than a PC, which has elevated them to new heights. It is obvious that you are using good quality kit, and it is amazing how a one man production company can now match the bigger players by using this. P.S. That Hyundai looks like a belter of a car.
Have you looked into the DJI Pocket 2? Pocket 3 coming soon hopefully. I used to use a gimbal with my phone but realised I didn’t want my phone tied up so much. Then I found the Pocket 2 which is amazing. Excellent video quality and very compact. I run my whole channel on it. As well as a bit of Mini 2 drone use. Another tip for steady shots is if filming at 60fps, move twice as fast as you want the shot to be then slow down 50%. Gives much better results.
Fascinating Ped, I knew that a lot was involved especially getting “speed” shots and “to camera” shots etc but realise having watched this, it’s pretty complex and so personal preference. As you say you all differ, from Harry’s Garage to Aquaholic, all different kit being used I guess. Anyway, I’m the wiser for your excellent presentation. 👍 Thank you.
That's a decent bit of kit by the looks of it. I was recently given a JOBY telepod by someone as a present for doing a full detail on a car for a trip away. It looks like it will be good for doing stationary shots of cars that I have transformed for Instagram. The JOBY has a remote control which is good for me as I can't hold a camera and take a picture as I suffer from Benign Essential Tremor but that bit of kit looks like a winner if I ever decided to do TH-cam. Maybe it's a present for my 60th which is creeping up on me faster than I would like. Less than 6 months to go. Another different style of film but still good. You would make a good lecturer!!!!!
I’m not sure if you know but that is exactly what Peter is in his “day job.” He gives Technical Training to students in the world of electronics and clearly superb at it. I tried making a You Tube film and it is far more complex than most viewers think…the presentation is difficult…the camerawork is easy by comparison! Peter is outstanding at both! 😀😀😀
@@HQBProductions Having been a long time follower I know what Peter's back up Profession is and having dabbled in his career when I launched a new computer system across the Bank I worked for in a past life it was difficult enough meeting a new Branch team of end users every 3 days and presenting in person. I am so glad that I was not filmed doing it let alone having to film myself at the same time. I agree Peter is a Master at it. Respect.
@@johnbrown3951 John…I also worked for a Bank and tried the presentation job when we started up “Sales & Service”…it is not easy and in the 1990’s most people were not that interested. Peter’s magic is that he engages the listener and explains on our level. Not many presenters get that right.I tried to do that and the biggest challenge was to the Board of Directors when I had to present training on Cricket Event training…whilst not having a clue about nor any interest in cricket! I remember it too well!! 🙂🙂🙂
Just ordered. There is currently 20% off, though remote control appears to only be available directly from Hohem, and also currently has a discount at present. Cheers.
This video is so helpful for me. I have just stated making videos on my boxster and am trying to figure out what gear to use may look into a gimbal. Thanks :)
Great bit of kit and certainly cheaper than I first thought, probably not worth me getting one but I'm looking forward to seeing how this ups your game even further as quality is great already.
Ive got the DJI osmo which is fine, invested in DJI Ronin RS for my DSLR which was amazing but way beyond with capabilities than i need so this may be the perfect in between piece of kit, plus love a gadget 😂
Thanks for making the video Pete, and as a relatively new TH-camr I’m always looking at ways to improve the quality of the videos and the sound. The GoPros infuriate me, I love them and hate them at the same time, my GoPro 10 over heats on a hot day and will randomly stop recording, which is not great and damages the trust in it. I always use my iPhone 11 for instagram reels and TH-cam shorts, it seems to do the job just fine, I will probably upgrade to the iPhone 15 pro max this year if funds allow. I own the Dji gimbal from a few years ago and it does a mighty fine job, but your model looks like it’s moved the game on again. I always enjoy your content and like the video and sound quality. Why do you use the camcorder over the iPhone for your outside the car talking segments, ? I’m curious of the benefits as I also like the idea of using a camcorder but the iPhone now is just as good in my opinion. Thanks again always interesting to see the kit other TH-cams use.
The camcorder has a better image from distance and has more quality zoom options as is an optical zoom. I also find it easier to connect my audio equipment. I use a Rode Wireless Go 2. Brilliant bit of kit. My mate Joe Achilles uses GoPro 10s and has the same issue. Not good 😢
Looks a very useful piece of kit at not a bad price in the photography world where quality kit always costs. Can see lots of applications for its use in just the normal phone photo use. Great video giving us all another insight into the world of the TH-cam creator
Very interesting video, often thought about getting a gimble for a goPro. I wish you’d covered the software you use to edit as well. What do you use Ped?
Hi Ped, something I'd like to see how you edit a video with multiple cams,audio ect. I know basic linear editing but would love see how you produce a car video.
I know the focus is on cool and interesting cars, but I really enjoyed this video. Would love to get your thoughts on the Sony Xperia 1 Mk5 if you can get your hands on one, especially if you're happy using a phone with your new gimbal for making B roll footage.
looks great - btw though it looks like the focus is not centre point on your main shooting camera especially indoors as you appear blurred almost vs background! - Not that I'm any kind of expert!; keep the great content coming - enjoying it all! BR.
I might have missed it, but what made you pick this one over others? I've started to dive into the world of Temu (a Chinese Amazon alt) and hey have similar looking ones for sub £100 but obviously info isn't as detailed as Amazon.
Very interesting Peter and I have pondered a gimbal to see if it would help. I take everything on an i13 Pro but 98% is still pictures. Video use is much more difficult and just this weekend I found how difficult it is to pan properly. Maybe you have given me the answer! What I really would like is a course on video editing as that is a dark art to me…I do it in camera but that is rubbish really! I just worry if I would ever use it much…but I have 40,000 images…883 videos but none of them that successful. Hmmm….🤔🤔😀😀😀😀😀Richard
As a stills and occasional video pro shooter I really struggle to see why u tubers don’t just use all I phones for most of the shoots unless you need a long tele, but go pros seem to be king of the sector I know smee loves his camcorders Also I phones have fantastic slow mo built in too
@@PetrolPed sound is very important but even that you can fit good mics to the phone now especially Bluetooth ones plus of course our can take the sound separately, which does seem over complicated but works well too
As always Pete a very informative video. Can you tell me what editing software you use as there are quite a few around and I'm not sure which one to go for in making my videos, thanks
Is it me or was the camcorder a lot sharper than the phone. Great piece of kit though. I am looking for a gopro myself but out of my budget so if anyone has an older one they don't want let me now. Cheeky I know
To be honest, I'd rather see an improvement in audio. The volume is constantly jumping up and down as you move your head around. Outside, the audio was even clipping.
@@PetrolPed I admit, I'm extremely picky when it comes to audio. I also watch/listen using headphones, so may notice it more than others do. That being said, clip on mics are usually a headache to get right and require proper use of compressors and the like. Audio clipping however is just unforgivable IMO.
At the end of the day it is a TH-cam channel to broadcast TV. I am a self trained self shooter and am happy my content is up there with the best on TH-cam in terms of quality. Always room for improvement though. I can’t hear the clipping but thanks for the feedback 👍
@@PetrolPed To be clear, I do appreciate the channel and everything you do and the work you put into it. The clipping takes place at the beginning of the outside part of the video, around 10:15.
Iphone offers the best stabilization combined with a gimbal its over. Android like Samsung s22 and newer also share the same camera apparently but Iphone has the best video camera. Obviously youre a youtuber so cant scrimp on equipment 😅

Glad you liked it 👍

I watched this on my TV, you could really tell the difference, that's going to make life easier for you isn't. Nice one.
Ah cheers bud 👍
Didn’t think I would like this. Watched it anyway and what a great insight to what you TH-camrs do!
I appreciate that 👍

@@PetrolPed Just telling the truth buddy..
I purchased a DJI gimbal for filming my son's band competitions with my iPhone and am well pleased with the way the video's turn out.
Great 👍
Hello, Peter thanks for the answer. I do filming for my wife's architectural firm I film in 8k and I use Da Vinci Resolve to down-convert to 4k and Final Cut Pro on a Mac Pro.
Interesting 👍 How is the availability of camera gear that can do 8K and what are the file sizes like ?
The information provided is highly educational and presented in a straightforward manner, making it easily understandable.
Looking forward to the vid improvements from that cool piece of kit !! Only getting better and better 👍🏻🇨🇦
Thanks 👍
Looks like a good bit of kit.Hope you get lots of use out of it.
A really cool system Sir Pete
Hello Mr Greaves!
Having been a channel subscriber since your earlier years, it is very clear to me that you have always strived for high quality within your videos and most of that is down to learning new techniques or finessing techniques and processes once learned - like any other skill.

Keep on doing what you are doing, Ped.
Best wishes from Wirral, as ever.

It’s great to see the sort of hoops you go through to make videos. Have to say that bit of kit look mega even for holiday photos
Yeah it would be 👍
Brilliant insight into the world of a You Tuber. Very interesting and informative. Can't believe the price, I thought it would nearer £500 at least. Thanks Pedro. Much appreciated.
Great value I thought 👍
Ooo..can’t wait to see your Ioniq 6 review!
Coming to the channel next week 👍
My gimbal is a DJI RS3, it's tiny but it's strong enough to support a camera with a 24 to 70-mm lens anything bigger than that no dice.
Wow what a great video of quite simply very important equipment for yourself but very interesting too & OMG what a tool that is that for your phone!! Enjoyed that very much indeed PetrolPed Pete!! 👌🏻👍🏻😁

DJI Osmo mobile 6 does all mentioned and can switch from Portrait to Landscape at the press of a button. It’s also cheaper at £135😊
I'm upgrading my gimbal to the DJI RS3 gimbal stabilizer which can support ten pounds. The only issue is it's expensive.
As always Pete a very informative video. Can you tell me what editing software you use as there are quite a few around and I'm not sure which one to go for in making my videos, thanks
I use Final Cut Pro on a Mac. Although iMovie which comes free with a Max is brilliant unless you want to use more the two cameras 👍
It ❤does a wonderful job who makes the Chinese . .
Sorry, the upgrade is called the DJI RS3 Pro gimbal stabilizer.
