For sure! Works great for cameras that don't shoot log. That's what I do now on the Canon R5C, clog3 does capture more information than HDR but that's still a great option!
These tips are legit. I never even heard of tight shots until I started working with more experienced guys. And great tips man. and I was also thinking about not turning on all the lights too

Nice Video my friend...I'm new to Real Estate Video shoots..Bought Sony ZV-E10 and mounted Sony 11mm f1.8 Lens...Kindly suggest some best option ND or Polarizes if required...
Hey! Nice, what camera system are you using now? I thought most other ones had something similar. Now I shoot primarily in LOG, pretty similar to the HDR mode but more control and super dynamic image. Thanks for watching!
Very good content Andrei !!! I just discovered your channel !! Do you have issues with overheating on the r6 when you shoot estate or interviews ? Or do you recommend to use the r6 mark ii instead ? Thanks a lot ! Keep shooting.
Hey man! Thanks so much, glad you found it valuable! I have come really close sometimes, typically it's not an issue at all. Like last Friday I was shooting a multi million dollar listing for almost 7 hours doing photo/video, and it almost overheated at one point, but it didn't! I definitely recommend the r6 ii if you don't have an R6 already. Thanks for watching!
Oh Canon users not having log. Classic. 🤣 Fun video, great to see. Would like to see more info on your Gimbal use as we are reviewing them now for use in real estate videos using Ronin RS2 or RS3
Now using a canon R6, the 10 bit clog3 log profile has been great! But yeah, this was the only solution then. Lol! I have an updated video on RE videography where I showcase BTS of it. th-cam.com/video/igja0m6ZWEU/w-d-xo.html If your camera setup is small enough, check out this video I made on the RS3 Mini! th-cam.com/video/cMLbh9us1_Y/w-d-xo.html
Appreciate it josh ! Well honestly, because I don’t walk slow enough most of the time, the 80% slow motion from 30 fps to 24 fps usually does the trick haha. Almost like a safety net. Other people film at 60fps for all the inside shots and that’s too slow, more data, also could mean noiser video as well. Thanks for watching!
Hey! You’re very welcome, glad you found it valuable! Here’s another in depth real estate video tutorial I’ve done recently as well! th-cam.com/video/igja0m6ZWEU/w-d-xo.html
Like having the agent on camera talking? It could be done a few ways. If it's only shots of them talking and then you overlay or shots the shots of the home, 24-35mm would be my go to. If they are showing the home at the same time while talking, probably wider like 20-24mm and still get the regular ultra wide shots as well. I have a lot more up to date content on my channel for RE video if you're interested, thanks for watching!
@ Yes I was referring to the agent walking around and showing the property. This is great! I’m picking up the Laowa 10mm and thought to knock out 2 birds with one lens. But then I said it would be WAY too wide to do that. Then I thought of a 50mm but thought that would be too close. You save so my life lol
Hi thank you for providing this great videos I am new to photography and I am learning a lot from you. I do what to jump to real State photography , I do have a Canon eos 7d mark ii but I need the lents you say the 16-35mm is good for reals state Will I get full wide angles from this lents not sure if this cámara is full frame.
Hey Josie! Glad you’re finding the videos helpful. No, you won’t get the full view since your camera has a crop sensor. For your camera you want a 10 or 11mm. I’d recommend these: Canon 10-18mm - amzn.to/3qMtPaZ Tamron 10-24mm - amzn.to/3rzXWBM
HI Andrei, great channel by the way. Do you shoot all the close-up/details after you have shot all the wide angle video? so not having to change the lens and gimbal settings? or do you do one room at a time and swap over? Cheers!
Hey Paul! Correct, I try to shoot all the wide shots with the same lens first, then swap out to my 35 or 50 for details and go through the house again. Definitely do my best to avoid switching and rebalancing. Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
Andrei. Great video for beginners, but you really need to keep you verticals straight. I think what you're doing is trying to have less ceiling but the essence of good architectural "anything" is straight verticals and perfect "one point/straight on" compositions.
Hey Gregory, thanks for watching and for the feedback! Confused though, where in here did I feature slanted/skewed verticals? I mentioned that as one of my points to keep your vertical lines straight and not skewed so need a little clarification on that. And as much as I love straight on shots, realtors constantly want corner/additional angles, and actually prefer them most of the time over straight on in my experience.
Hey Gregory, sorry I thought your comment was on my Real Estate Photography Video, haha my bad! Totally agree, I feel like it's one of those "know the rules, to break the rules" situation. Every real estate photo I take keeps verticals levels. And when it comes to video, I think a little more creativity can be used. I think utilizing certain gimbal movements can enhance the visual of the architecture like panning up for a big ceiling even though it's breaking the vertical rules. But definitely appreciate your feedback, thanks for watching!
Hey man! Thanks so much. Interesting, it my market in Houston, TX, it’s super popular and almost a necessity for every realtor along with the real estate photos. Do realtors get professional photos done for listings in France? How does the market work over there?
Hi love the video! So I have a canon r6 and have log. Don’t understand it but you mentioned that the end it’s better. You said you use HDR mode so is that the same?
Hey Sherina! Great question, no so both are different! Log Profiles are flatter color profiles that capture more dynamic range + color information. Requires a bit of knowledge on color grading and editing, but the result is better. HDR mode captures a little more dynamic range but already puts the color in for you so you can’t really adjust in it in editing. Here’s two other videos where I go in depth in real estate videos and color grading! For shooting in LOG: th-cam.com/video/igja0m6ZWEU/w-d-xo.html For color grading: th-cam.com/video/YFgV2BwlVtI/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any questions !
I don’t have c log on my camera! But when I’ve rented cameras that do have it, like the R6, I do! More flexibility in editing to retain more detail for sure
if you have been asked to shoot REV vertically for Instagram what way will you be shooting horizontally then crop or vertically. I have a tokina 12-24 f4 with canon 60d I will be doing my first video soon I will be shooting with 24 fps 50 shutter for both 50mm and 12-24mm. 1st photoshoot was success client loved it again I have the same question do we have to use VND filter to avoid harsh light outside window or normal polariser should be used to create video for indoor interior.
Hey! As of now, my business normally gets booked for a regular listing video, and we offer a vertical edit as an add on. So we take the horizontal footage and reformat it vertically. We don’t always just crop in, sometimes I will make it more interesting by stacking 3 horizontal shots in one vertical section to view all of them at once. For real estate, I use a polarizer inside & outside. Even if I have to bump up my shutter outside, nothing is moving in the frame aside from maybe leaves or trees, so I’m okay to break the shutter rule. If I’m filing an agent talking outside, definitely switch to a VND and use the proper shutter. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo thank you. another question what lens will you suggest for 5dmark3 for interior videos have a crop lens 12-24 for now I will zoom in a little to avoid fish eye look and try to shoot and see the difference
Always tough! Use a faster lens like f/2.8, switch from 60 or 30fps to 24fps so my shutter is 1/50 letting in more light, and take off my circular polarizer filter since that darkens the image. I shoot in 10 bit log profiles now on my canon r6 mark ii, so I overexpose the dark room to bring exposure down in editing and make it not as noisy. Thanks for watching!
Hey Andrei! I know this video is about a year old but I just found it and it's super informative. I have the exact same setup but do mostly events, I'm slowly getting into real estate. I have one question: how do you manage the 1.7x crop on the 5D MKIV for your shoots? I'll get an R6 soon for the (almost) no crop in 4K and great low light capabilities. Thanks for your tips mate, appreciate it! Cheers from France
Hey man! Thanks so much, really appreciate it. Easy - I never shot in 4K on that camera. 😆 All video including real estate video was in 1080p! Even now having the R6, I shoot in 1080p and 4K depending on the shoot. Plus, the 1080p in the R6 is way sharper/more detailed than the 5d and you have 10 bit log profiles. Thanks for watching!
Typically next day or 2 business days. Realtors always need them asap! If it’s a luxury property or a lifestyle real estate video, it might be more like 2-3 business days. Thanks for watching!
Dont know about the people in the shot tip. I would not like seeing other people beeing in my Potential home like that ^^ . other then that great Video 👌
Hi Andrei, Thanks for a great video. I also have the 5D4 + 16-35mm Canon L lens with Ronan S. I new to shooting videos as I have only be shooting photos for real estate. Enjoying the move but struggle to get exposure right onsite. Can you share your camera settings and how you adjust exposure to get nice clean balanced looking video in each room. Thanks Bryan
Hey Bryan! Thanks for the feedback! Yes, getting the correct exposure when shooting real estate is tricky due to all the mixed lighting. My go to is using the histogram to make sure everything is exposed properly. Shooting in HDR mode on the 5d4 helps a lot to retain the window detail. I shoot on an R6 now and the clog3 and the dynamic range is so nice for real estate. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions!
@@AndreiRestrepo thanks for great reply. Will try hdr mode later today. How do you find the R6 for video quality and photos quality compared to 5D? I'm thinking of upgrading but it's expensive he in NZ. Have also been thinking of changing to Sony but it's hard and expensive changing brands
To me, the R6 to the 5D4 is an upgrade in every way! Way better AF, WAY BETTER low light performance (great for RE), smaller body, full frame 4k video, 20mp photos look really good, like I can’t tell a difference really from the 5D. Tried out Sony, didn’t like it, really happy with canon. Obviously note that their are video limitations if you shoot in 4k for expensive times, but never has affected my workflow!
i think turning on a fireplace is ok or fans but turning on the stove or faucet its kinda cringey to me. ultimately the only way to bring life to the shot is with movement and people.
Just something I've always seen done! Pretty much any way I can add movement or things being done in the shot vs just a static looking video clip. That's why I do a good amount of lifestyle real estate videos with people in them! Thanks for watching
Hey Randy! Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! For sure - so if I shoot the interior at 60 frames per second, I have to bump up my shutter to 1/125, versus filming in 30 fra for second I can have it at 1/60. Honestly makes a pretty big difference in darker homes/rooms. Plus for the most part I’m already walking really slow, so filming at 60 frames would just make it too slow, so 30 frames is the sweet spot because I can still slow down by 80%. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!
Hey! Yes, I use a CPL for both re photo & video. I didn’t before all the time simply because my old camera didn’t have the best low light performance, and a CPL darkens your image by a stop or so. But using one makes a big difference and makes your videos look more higher end not having those blown out floors. Thanks for watching!
Hi, great video ! Just a question please, how do you do in order to slow down your footage from 30fps to 24fps without choppy resullt ? Thanks from France ;)
Of course! Here's two ways to do it: 1. Right click on the video clip you want to convert from the footage bin - Click Modify - Interpret Footage - Assume Frame rate, Type 23.976 - Ok! 2. Right click video clip in timeline - Speed/duration - 80% for 30 fps to 24 fps Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks for watching!
I sure do mike! Currently shooting with the EF 16-35 F4 IS L, great lens! I’ve used the 15-35 for a few shoots, obviously incredible lens BUT.. I definitely think the 14-35 would be the better choice for real estate. Smaller, wider, better IS, and probably sharper than my version. Don’t really need the 2.8 for real estate, even for video f/4 is good. I have my eyes on the 14-35! Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Sounds like we’re on the same page! I bought the 15-35 last week but returned it as soon as I found out about the 14-35 coming out end of August. It’s crazy how many people are crapping on it because it’s f/4, but that lens is super compact, extra mm on the wide end and normal 77mm filters. It sounds like it will be an amazing lens to me.
@@mikebanks4796 yes the 77mm filter size is another big perk I forget to mention! All of my filters are 77mm, definitely would not like to re-buy them. The 2.8 would definitely be nice, especially for other types of photo/video but if we’re talking specifically real estate, 14-35 would be the right move. I need to look into possibly upgrading it soon!
@@AndreiRestrepofirst of all what a great channel!! I understand this video is 2 years old but I am thinking of starting addond video to RE photography. Ive got eos r so it will be 1080 due to 4k crop. So should get similar results what you had 2 years ago on this video with your set up. I have RF 14-35MM F4. Noticed however you are now using 15-35 f2.8. Woulf you not recommend 14-35mm F4 for video. Would. It still be OK for lime those lifestyle shots or that where 2.8 shines? Many thank and keep doing amazing ut work please :)
Hey Bobby! Exactly. Having your shutter bump from 1/60 (30fps) to 1/125 is pretty much double your ISO! So when you're in a dark home already, it could be the difference between iso 1600 or 3200, 4000 or something. And here's another big one - sometimes, or a lot of the times, these homes have cheap lighting. So the higher the shutter, the more banding/weird flickering you'll see on your footage. If I could walk perfectly slow enough, I'd even shoot at 24fps and have my shutter at 1/50 for the lowest iso. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Actually no! I invested in a Canon R6 back in March of last year, really nice upgrade especially in the video dept! CLOG3 for my dynamic range, way sharper sensor, 4k uncropped, 10bit color, near perfect aside from the recording limitations from overheating after awhile. But honestly, the 5D did a pretty great job, still would be perfectly fine for this, or an EOS R. Thanks for watching!
I haven’t used a 5d3, but if it can do 1080p 24, 30, & 60 fps, you should be good! Especially because you don’t necessarily need continuous AF since you want everything I’m focus for the most part.
What's your real estate video setup???
FX3 would be my top pick 🤯
Yeah, that probably is. Especially based off your vid😆
Did agree with the inclusion of people… you want the buyer to be able to see the selves not someone else in their potential home
Did or didn’t? Not sure I followed what you mentioned!
I love the tip of using 30 fps instead of using 60 that everyone does. Great tip! Now I can shoot in 4k inside and out !
Yeah, it’s honestly not necessary if you shoot it correctly, and get to keep your ISO lower! Haha awesome! 🤙🏻
@@AndreiRestrepo Yea that 1/125 kills the lighting lol
this guy deserves much more subs. the quality of this video is outstanding. n the tips is valuable!
keep up the great work!
Hey Najmin, thanks so much for the comment! Truly appreciate it greatly. :)
Fully agree!

I purchase fujifilm x-t3 with fujinon 18-55mm kit lens and its great but this is mirrorless cam so can I work with APS-C sensor instead full frame?
Yes, totally can use an APS-C sensor camera! Only issue is 18mm kit lens isn't wide enough. I'd get a 10-12mm crop sensor lens
if you have been asked to shoot REV vertically for Instagram what way will you be shooting horizontally then crop or vertically. I have a tokina 12-24 f4 with canon 60d I will be doing my first video soon I will be shooting with 24 fps 50 shutter for both 50mm and 12-24mm. 1st photoshoot was success client loved it again I have the same question do we have to use VND filter to avoid harsh light outside window or normal polariser should be used to create video for indoor interior.
Hey! As of now, my business normally gets booked for a regular listing video, and we offer a vertical edit as an add on. So we take the horizontal footage and reformat it vertically. We don’t always just crop in, sometimes I will make it more interesting by stacking 3 horizontal shots in one vertical section to view all of them at once.
For real estate, I use a polarizer inside & outside. Even if I have to bump up my shutter outside, nothing is moving in the frame aside from maybe leaves or trees, so I’m okay to break the shutter rule. If I’m filing an agent talking outside, definitely switch to a VND and use the proper shutter. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo thank you. another question what lens will you suggest for 5dmark3 for interior videos have a crop lens 12-24 for now I will zoom in a little to avoid fish eye look and try to shoot and see the difference
I used a 16-35 f/4 IS for the longest time for real estate photo/video on my 5d4, much more affordable now preowned !
What’s your tips for video a dark spac
Always tough! Use a faster lens like f/2.8, switch from 60 or 30fps to 24fps so my shutter is 1/50 letting in more light, and take off my circular polarizer filter since that darkens the image. I shoot in 10 bit log profiles now on my canon r6 mark ii, so I overexpose the dark room to bring exposure down in editing and make it not as noisy. Thanks for watching!
I have Canon 5D4, and have shot some HDR stills in camera. But HDR video is only in 1080, I believe, and not 4K.
Yep, totally right! I don’t shoot any of this stuff in 4k since it’s crops in 1.7x. Thanks for watching!
Hey Andrei! I know this video is about a year old but I just found it and it's super informative. I have the exact same setup but do mostly events, I'm slowly getting into real estate. I have one question: how do you manage the 1.7x crop on the 5D MKIV for your shoots? I'll get an R6 soon for the (almost) no crop in 4K and great low light capabilities. Thanks for your tips mate, appreciate it! Cheers from France
Hey man! Thanks so much, really appreciate it. Easy - I never shot in 4K on that camera. 😆 All video including real estate video was in 1080p! Even now having the R6, I shoot in 1080p and 4K depending on the shoot. Plus, the 1080p in the R6 is way sharper/more detailed than the 5d and you have 10 bit log profiles. Thanks for watching!
What’s your slow mo percentage on your 30fps footie??????
80% to get back to 24fps!
What’s your turnaround time for videos like these?
Typically next day or 2 business days. Realtors always need them asap! If it’s a luxury property or a lifestyle real estate video, it might be more like 2-3 business days. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Thanks! I come from a video production background and just starting in real estate. Realizing this industry is fast
Dont know about the people in the shot tip. I would not like seeing other people beeing in my Potential home like that ^^ . other then that great Video 👌
Understandable! I also have a lot more up to date content on RE video content as well. Thanks for watching, appreciate it!
Hi Andrei, Thanks for a great video. I also have the 5D4 + 16-35mm Canon L lens with Ronan S. I new to shooting videos as I have only be shooting photos for real estate. Enjoying the move but struggle to get exposure right onsite. Can you share your camera settings and how you adjust exposure to get nice clean balanced looking video in each room. Thanks Bryan
Hey Bryan! Thanks for the feedback! Yes, getting the correct exposure when shooting real estate is tricky due to all the mixed lighting. My go to is using the histogram to make sure everything is exposed properly. Shooting in HDR mode on the 5d4 helps a lot to retain the window detail. I shoot on an R6 now and the clog3 and the dynamic range is so nice for real estate. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions!
@@AndreiRestrepo thanks for great reply. Will try hdr mode later today. How do you find the R6 for video quality and photos quality compared to 5D? I'm thinking of upgrading but it's expensive he in NZ. Have also been thinking of changing to Sony but it's hard and expensive changing brands
To me, the R6 to the 5D4 is an upgrade in every way! Way better AF, WAY BETTER low light performance (great for RE), smaller body, full frame 4k video, 20mp photos look really good, like I can’t tell a difference really from the 5D. Tried out Sony, didn’t like it, really happy with canon. Obviously note that their are video limitations if you shoot in 4k for expensive times, but never has affected my workflow!
i think turning on a fireplace is ok or fans but turning on the stove or faucet its kinda cringey to me. ultimately the only way to bring life to the shot is with movement and people.
Just something I've always seen done! Pretty much any way I can add movement or things being done in the shot vs just a static looking video clip. That's why I do a good amount of lifestyle real estate videos with people in them! Thanks for watching
These are fantastic tips, but a quick question for you - why not shoot interior at 60fps also? Why 30? Thank you!
Hey Randy! Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! For sure - so if I shoot the interior at 60 frames per second, I have to bump up my shutter to 1/125, versus filming in 30 fra for second I can have it at 1/60. Honestly makes a pretty big difference in darker homes/rooms. Plus for the most part I’m already walking really slow, so filming at 60 frames would just make it too slow, so 30 frames is the sweet spot because I can still slow down by 80%. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!
Ah! That’s a very good point about the extra light. Thank you!
Do you use your CPL (polarising filter) when you shoot videos, or just for the still images?
Hey! Yes, I use a CPL for both re photo & video. I didn’t before all the time simply because my old camera didn’t have the best low light performance, and a CPL darkens your image by a stop or so. But using one makes a big difference and makes your videos look more higher end not having those blown out floors. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Thanks Andrei 😀
Hi, great video ! Just a question please, how do you do in order to slow down your footage from 30fps to 24fps without choppy resullt ? Thanks from France ;)
Of course! Here's two ways to do it:
1. Right click on the video clip you want to convert from the footage bin - Click Modify - Interpret Footage - Assume Frame rate, Type 23.976 - Ok!
2. Right click video clip in timeline - Speed/duration - 80% for 30 fps to 24 fps
Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Thanks It works perfectly ;)
Subbed
Hey jed! Thanks so much the support, glad you found the video helpful!
Pro estate videos hehe
LOL
How long does it take for you to film a home?
It can take me 45 min, or up to 1.5 hr. Depending on if I have to switch lenses, size of the home, drone, other factors ! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the great videos Andrei!
Looks like you shoot Canon. What are your thoughts on that new RF 14-35 f/4 vs the 15-35 f/2.8?
I sure do mike! Currently shooting with the EF 16-35 F4 IS L, great lens! I’ve used the 15-35 for a few shoots, obviously incredible lens BUT.. I definitely think the 14-35 would be the better choice for real estate. Smaller, wider, better IS, and probably sharper than my version. Don’t really need the 2.8 for real estate, even for video f/4 is good. I have my eyes on the 14-35! Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Sounds like we’re on the same page! I bought the 15-35 last week but returned it as soon as I found out about the 14-35 coming out end of August. It’s crazy how many people are crapping on it because it’s f/4, but that lens is super compact, extra mm on the wide end and normal 77mm filters. It sounds like it will be an amazing lens to me.
@@mikebanks4796 yes the 77mm filter size is another big perk I forget to mention! All of my filters are 77mm, definitely would not like to re-buy them. The 2.8 would definitely be nice, especially for other types of photo/video but if we’re talking specifically real estate, 14-35 would be the right move. I need to look into possibly upgrading it soon!
@@AndreiRestrepofirst of all what a great channel!!
I understand this video is 2 years old but I am thinking of starting addond video to RE photography. Ive got eos r so it will be 1080 due to 4k crop. So should get similar results what you had 2 years ago on this video with your set up. I have RF 14-35MM F4. Noticed however you are now using 15-35 f2.8.
Woulf you not recommend 14-35mm F4 for video. Would. It still be OK for lime those lifestyle shots or that where 2.8 shines?
Many thank and keep doing amazing ut work please :)
Hmm why wouldn't you just shoot everything at 60fps? Noise?
Hey Bobby! Exactly. Having your shutter bump from 1/60 (30fps) to 1/125 is pretty much double your ISO! So when you're in a dark home already, it could be the difference between iso 1600 or 3200, 4000 or something. And here's another big one - sometimes, or a lot of the times, these homes have cheap lighting. So the higher the shutter, the more banding/weird flickering you'll see on your footage. If I could walk perfectly slow enough, I'd even shoot at 24fps and have my shutter at 1/50 for the lowest iso. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Are you still using 5d4 to film real estate?
Actually no! I invested in a Canon R6 back in March of last year, really nice upgrade especially in the video dept! CLOG3 for my dynamic range, way sharper sensor, 4k uncropped, 10bit color, near perfect aside from the recording limitations from overheating after awhile. But honestly, the 5D did a pretty great job, still would be perfectly fine for this, or an EOS R. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo I have a 5d3, will it work for filming real estate?
I haven’t used a 5d3, but if it can do 1080p 24, 30, & 60 fps, you should be good! Especially because you don’t necessarily need continuous AF since you want everything I’m focus for the most part.
@@AndreiRestrepo thank you! Will the kit lens 24-105mm do the job?
