I didn't have time to mention this in the video, but I 100% agree with you! Not only filters, but invest in proper gear in general. It took me many years of spending money on knockoff/copycat gear, ultimately to have it break or fail or simply disappoint. Take a deep breath and spend the extra dough!
So on point. I'd rather shoot on a budget camera body with high-end glass than a $5k camera with cheap lens and filters. Plus, glass holds its value for years and can be moved to another camera.
Best camera hack I have is to take the time to learn everything about your camera. Learn the menus, customize buttons, figure out what color settings work best for the lighting and your style. So many shots were ruined because I didn't have the camera setup correctly before hitting the big red button.
Man, the #1 suggestion from this video (and this from >35 years as a stills photographer) is having a bag that holds everything and always put everything in the same place in the bag. It's like always putting your keys or wallet in the same place before bedtime. The less you have to think about preparation, the more prepared you'll be. Better to show up with stuff that doesn't get used than show up and not have something you need. #2 is real gaffer tape. Amazing how many people think it's the same as duct tape. Gaffer tape does everything. If I could like this video twice, I would!
This is such a masterpiece of great writing, hella helpful information and beautiful cinematography. Well done. (I actually already saw it a few months back and am returning for a refresher)
Great video! I can barely imagine all the trial and error, learning through failures... Brought us this great channel! :) I really appreciate it! Cheers
Hey all of you at IFHT! What I love about your videos, are the cinematic-look you get in shots. It would be nice if you made a video on how to get the like on a budget camera/(cameras). Don't ever stop posting your MTB videos. If you do, My bike will be very sad.
great video you guys! I've learned all of these for doing youtube for the past 3 years but this was really informative and well put together! hope to see more soon!
Get the Sidewinder. It works with DSMC2 and it’s basically everything you need tool-wise in one. It’s only missing a Phillips if you need that for some reason. You can probably add one by removing something else if you really need it. It’s the cheapest piece of hardware RED sells and the value is through the roof. ;) Great tips. I already follow those, but it’s nice to see something different than the same 5 hacks.
I like to do a "working lock" with my camera cases. If something is missing, or being used/ not in the case, I only lock one latch. Let's me know the case is incomplete.
About silky shallow depth of field: I've read a very emotional discussion of DPs about this on Facebook. One said something that really got stuck in my mind: don't use shallow depth of field when you're a beginner. He or they argued that the DSLR revolution got too many people to fast into shallow depth of field. The problem? Everybody uses it and doesn't give a single F about the background anymore. A filmmaker doesn't go as shallow as possible. He or she goes as shallow as needed and as deep as possible or vice versa. That's what I've learned about photography in the first semester of studying media design. And filmmaking is just moving photography. That's why we're talking about DPs and not camera men. I've started to try to take the image first in my head. Then setup the camera and take the picture trying to recreate my view or get a more interesting one using the abilities that the camera has over my eyes. For example getting even lower or higher perspectives. Wider or narrower fields of view. It's endless. So that was my two cents about what I've learned in the last five or six years of watching TH-cam, shooting way too much footage that lies on some archive hard drive and has never been watched, but only cutting 2-5 tiny projects. I hope somebody reads this shit and can apply some things to their own style. Thanks and let it roll.
When I'm going out for a shoot especially a when it's outdoors or in a environment where injury could happen. I always brink a medical kit with me,the amount of people that are impressed that I have prepared for the worst has meant that people want to have me on their shoots in the future
Good stuff. Great soundtrack. My only criticism is labelling small batts and small cards can be destructive when the glue warms in the camera and peels off. Loosing a label in a card port can bend pins when you reinsert. Just use a sharpie for cards and AAs.
Haha was the intro a Jab a Peter Mackinnon? 😂
Skills With Phil I saw it to! 🤣
100%
Peter Mckinnon
If you play it slow you notice it is his locked background and of a woman

Label maker!
I ONLY RIDE NAR WONT EVEN GET IN A CAR HIKE HEK NO TRIL HEADS TO FAR.

how bout vaseline on the sensor???
please no
Isn't that how you clean it? Vaseline and steal wool?
@@tomgosy don't you put some small stones inside, out the lens on and shake?
Disaster
@@amitdavidov9142 creates epic textures!
polarizing filters are dope, but if you were to use one make sure you invest in a good one! bad filters ruin the picture.

why are we calling these hacks. this is common advice. A hack is like using your lens caps as a small storage spot or something
Great Fairy Fountain theme! Zelda Dorks Unite!
BCpov sooo good

@@Leprutz The air blower? XD

You can't appreciate the power of gaff tape... until you've used the real thing. Like duct tape and painters tape had a baby.
The editing, shot quality of this video are God-tier. Love it.
Peter mckinnon left the chat
Mobile support units are awesome. Especially 4x4 off-road ones.

Them Zelda beats though...
Trail Features yep nice.

Tldr: don't forget about how the background interacts with your foreground
Funny AF just like always. Thanks!

More of these please! Awesomeeee

I’m in love with this music!
great camera hacks thanks for sharing this with us!
Thanks! Great tips. Watching while putting velcro on my LED lights.
Love the camera hacks! You guys make some great videos! Keep up the great work!
