Hmmm. Judging by the amount of people and how early I am I think I'm in the first 1000.... But I'll be nice and not use it. Now someone who might bennefit from it more has a shot at it enjoy guys :)
I found this really interesting! I'm not huge on cinematography myself. Don't get me wrong, if I could do it I would, but I don't have the proper equipment or the money for proper equipment. All I have is one of those cheap tourist cameras that you can get at the convenience store. Also I lack in creative juices, but we'll skip over that. But this has definitely been super intriguing! Putting that aside, I have some friends who are really into cinematography and cameras and whatnot, so I'll be directing them to this for sure! Thank you!
If you want to get into cinematography, just do it, even though you don't have the equipment. I made my first films with my old phone (360 p I believe) but it was so much fun and I learnt a lot. Also, using cheap tourist cameras could give a very nice effect on the film, depending on the story you're telling :)
Nateovision same way you can experience being nervous, you don’t know what can happen, but the way you feel about it is uneasy, he has a good feeling about the video, he’s probably a fan/has enjoyed mumbos content before, or has took one/many pieces of mumbos advice and it’s payed off, and they also said they *might* need this in the future, no guarantee anyways, kinda weird you feel that way ngl
I genuinely don't know anything about filming and stuff but I still watch these very technical videos even if I barely understand what are you talking about, because it's so good to see you talking about something you're passionate about. This video really made my day, thank you!
Even tho I'm not a photographer and that I'll ever use a camera I still like to sit down and hear about these kinds of things, no Matter how nerdy it sounds I'd always like to see how something is made and hear about a person's opinion on what others should do to find what there asking. It's also very inspiring for younger or long time artist when they see a beautiful photo of someone, or just in general of a documentary! It really helps to learn more about the artist of all and many ❤❤❤👍👍👍
I combine my phone's camera and a gopro hero 5 black for my BMX and MTB footage. It works fine to share with friends and showing lines/actions that improve my placement (in a race).
Ummmm, mumbo you should have also mentioned log profiles. As they can also help to hold information within the codec (some cheaper cameras now also have log).
@@user-jp6et6xp8d while dslr´s are still around and propably will be around for another while, i would recommend picking a mirrorless system. what are you trying to do with your cam?
I've always been pretty into photography and shot films and stuff. The most experience I have is just casual pictures and setting up school year books over the years, different small events for friends and stuff. The cameras I currently use, a Nikon and a Canon (cant remember the numbers, not really important). Fantastic cameras but fairly old. Definitely gonna have to take some of this into consideration when I inevitably have to replace them.
As someone who doesn't know anything yet about filming but is very interested in getting into it, that was very well done. Concise, really understandable for a profane like me; like I never heard most of the technical terms until now but I understood what they stand for. Now I know I have to research these terms to understand them in-depth and what they imply when filming, and I already have pointers for a first camera from someone whose filming I love. Your work is incredible and you're very talented, I hope you get more and more interesting professional projects to work on, you deserve it! Maybe one day you'll be the one making a course on Skillshare :D
Think you’d love playing with an Alexa classic if you can get your hands on one. Lower res but the same Alev 3 sensor as in the modern arri cameras (until the Alexa 35 releases with alev 4) Downside is, it is a bit of a beast size wise
The OG pocket has been. With me for soon to be 3 years and I barely used it. Recently got a lens for it that is pretty rare and I want to make use of it. As I like the form factor I wanted to ask you what your solution is? Stabilized glass or small rig/glide cam? I dislike the idea of a gimbal.
Great info! You touched on this a little, but I don’t think it got its own category. That’s usability. Most of the consumer/prosumer level cameras can be operated by a single op, but many of the higher end stuff need rigged up and typically require a team of at least 2 people. If you are a single op then you are probably topping off at a red as the ceiling.
Resolution does matter, I upgraded from a 384x288 to a 640x480 today and it makes a difference. The pixels are smaller and the noise might be worse. But the detail is there. I just have to get the DR and the codec fixed and do some side by side. Current I got other issues with it.
I do agree with resolution being a lower priority I would much rather take good 4K or even REALLY good 1080 over 8K unless I started REALLY doing VFX work as the extra detail for that stuff is great for mapping the effects to the scene
6:52 As someone with a 144hz monitor, the framerate of video is something I wish more film media took seriously; it's not just about slowmo. I'm sick of looking at 24/30fps content from film, 48 is better but it's still sub 60. Even 60fps is flickery to me when there's a lot of rapid movement... A video like this is fine with 24/30fps, but I would LOVE to see a film shot in 120/144fps. Hell, I wish TH-cam would hurry up and support 120fps video, since most flagship PHONES now can support 960fps recording! I agree about resolution as well. Old reel film cameras didn't have a set resolution, but the actual quality of film was damn near unbeatable until only recently.
Overall I agree with your conclusions but I think you forgot about two or maybe three things on this list. First, and I think most important, is determining what you are going to use the camera for. Is this going to be something you use for both stills and video, or just video? What kind of environment are you going to use it in? What is the lighting like in that environment? Do you shoot handheld and need stability control or can you get away with using a tripod most of the time? I used to do a lot of boxing videos and gyms are notoriously poorly lit. However, because it is sport, an athlete's ability to see is kind of important, and I tended to do more candid photography: I couldn't just flood them with lighting. As such, I needed something that was reasonably compact and portable, could capture both stills and video, and offered decent low light capability relative to price/size. For me and that specific application the Panasonic GH5 with speed booster and Sigma 18-35 was a really good combo. I could shoot in essentially raw, boot up was quick, battery life was good, and it was easily totable. Whether I was shooting in the gym or China, it made a really good companion for my needs and shooting style. However, if you need a fast autofocusing system (especially if you are using a speedbooster), a full frame sensor, or something that has more video specific features... it isn't a great fit. Same goes with the GH5S with regards to stabilized video. It wouldn't work for me because I was always getting in and out of the ring, and moving around trying to stay at my preset focal length since the autofocus on those systems was not that great. Second and possibly third thing is a combo of sorts: community support. The more expensive a camera is the smaller the community is going to be typically. Want preconfigured LUT profiles to work with or tutorials? You are going to have better luck if you choose hardware that has a strong community behind it. (Especially when it comes to finding free or low cost options.) Same goes for accessories. Larger the market, the easier it will be to find things and that typically translates to lower costs; especially as it often means you can buy used or older compatible options. Whether they be accessories, software, or something else, that will help you get the most out of the hardware you have. This is especially goes with lens options. Having adapters and the like can really help you make the most of a camera system and do so in a more economical way. Admittedly, maybe that goes under your connector categories, but I think it deserves more of a direct mention since some things like lenses can be adapted and hugely influences the final quality and cost. Perhaps that is outside of the scope of what you were intending with this video; as I think you were talking about video specific options. However, if someone came to me with that same question, I would include those as points along with the items you mentioned. That said, great list and really interesting to see your view on this kind of thing given you do approach this question from more of cinematographer's perspective.
I don’t know a lot about cameras and filming, I just have a camera I like to use for some pictures every so often. It’s pretty good and I’m happy with it but when I try to take pictures of things like the the moon or the stars, it’s very blurry and just looks like a white dot. I’ve noticed a few things that improves it like holding the camera really still or taking them in daylight, but it’s never very clear. I use a 75-300mm lens and I’m not sure if it’s a camera problem or just a lens problem If anyone knows anything about this please just let me know it’s probably pretty obvious I just don’t know a lot about these things
Where would you rate sensor crop on your priority list? Having been privileged to use the Alexa XT in class, I don't think I could go and use a camera with crop sensor at different resolutions or shooting speeds. It annoys me greatly. How do you feel about it?
For recording my bag work I shoot in HD but then I have to downsize to like 800*480 anyway just to upload in any meaningful time frame. My internet is terrible! I'd love to shoot in 120FPS though and really nail whether my technique is good or not, but the shots I'm getting are enough of a starting point since I'm not turning pro or anything anytime soon.

Thanks for getting me interested Mumbo! I've seen this sponsor many times but I never tried it.
I heard that if you shoot in 4k and then compress it into 1080p, it makes it look more smooth and a lot better. Is that true?

As an aspiring cinematographer who is also a tech nerd, thank you for this. I always love your camera videos/films
Thanks! Me and my friends make Lego stop motions and we want to learn how to get the best picture.
I think im in love with cameras
Same list here, Codecs and DR over resolution any day :). Even though I have the bmpcc6k I still shoot UHD.
Yes
I combine my phone's camera and a gopro hero 5 black for my BMX and MTB footage. It works fine to share with friends and showing lines/actions that improve my placement (in a race).
Love the wide aspect ratio
I understood almost none of this video, but I loved it
Ummmm, mumbo you should have also mentioned log profiles. As they can also help to hold information within the codec (some cheaper cameras now also have log).
That falls under dynamic range though. All a Log profile is doing is allowing you to shoot with more dynamic range :)
