  • Touchdown Antarctica!! We have made it.
    This is a classic travel vlog style taking you through the first landing on the continent plus a zodiac cruise in the afternoon. We saw our first penguins and also got up close and personal with some giant Icebergs. Antarctica we have arrived.
    Next up is a visit to Cuverville Island, home to a colony of Gentoo Penguin's in the thousands and a Leopard Seal. See you there!
    Big thanks to Polar Latitudes and ‪@BrendanvanSon‬ for helping organize and operate the Photo Voyage, and also to ‪@SimonBaxterPhotography‬ ‪@CourtneyVictoria‬ ‪@juliatrotti‬ ‪@erinbabnik9592‬ ‪@RachaelTalibartPhotography‬ ‪@MikeMezeulII‬ Jeff Bartlett and all of the talented photographers on board. What an awesome journey this is!! #antarctica

    Awesome Greg! I’ve done 8 summer working trips to Antarctica aboard 6 different icebreakers with tours of Davis, Casey, Mawson, DDU, Macquarie Island and Showa station maintaining helicopters and operating drones out of Hobart. Typically a southern ocean crossing takes 2 weeks at sea and is far more treacherous than the Drake passage. I’ve experienced 50ft seas that have blown in the bridge windows, been adrift in a ship that blew up and caught fire in the path of an approaching cyclone, been grounded on rocks and much more. Wishing you a safe adventure though and great content 👍🏼

    • @gregorsnell

      Wow!!!! That sounds insane. Not something us tourists are too interested in I don't think. We got lucky crossing the Drake and had an amazing time visiting Antarctica. I hope to go back one day soon. This first trip was just the tip of the iceberg.

    Did you stabilise the footage in post Greg?
    If you stabilise footage shot at 1/50s (or whatever 180 degree shutter), you will stabilise the video. But, NOT the motion blur that was in the original footage. That will appear just like what you got there...
    That is your 'error', not the A7iv ;)
    How to prevent that is shooting in a faster shutterspeed. Then you do not have smooth motion blur. But you can always add that in post. Davinci for example has a motion blur option on the color page (next to noise removal).

    • @gregorsnell
      @gregorsnell  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, yeah I stabilised some of it in post and it helped. I think the micro jitters are actually an issue with the 100-400. At least that was another point of interest from a fellow videographer. I still think it has something to do with the active stabilisation engaged while handheld with the 100-400, but I did stop using it after this day so it'll be interesting to see how the next few days footage turns out. If you can, comment on the next video too and I'll respond there with hopefully more info. I like your idea of pumping the shutter speed too though. that makes perfect sense and likely helps too.

    • @WeylinTracking
      @WeylinTracking ปีที่แล้ว

      @@gregorsnell it's easy to see Greg. If you watch the frames where you experience that jitter, and those frames have a lot of motion blur. Then what you see are not jitters, but the motion blur which have no motion anymore ;)
