@@NewWorldHippy It’s all in the video. S video is not needed and the original Canon cable doesn’t have the red connector. so it’s only video (yellow) and white (left audio). Single channel audio - My camera doesn’t provide stereo sound. Other cameras may or may not have it so you can connect all three or just the two like my camera.
It really all comes down to your personal preference and what you do with photography. I've stuck with the 16-80 and it grew on me. Also, I like my zoom.
Hope y’all enjoy this series! If you haven't already, check out part 1 from my previous upload. You can see more of my work on Instagram. instagram.com/russellrabanal 🎞
Great video! Does the capture card select the aspect ratio? I was recording off of a VCR which should display in 4:3, but the Quicktime window was 16:9. Does Quicktime allow you to switch that setting?
great video, love seeing camera tests with portraits, most just go and shoot landscapes and buildings so its nice to see what this camera can do for portrait shoots
spot-on. that’s what i mostly see as well. just happy to share something different into this space and i appreciate you for checking out the video. i’ll try to squeeze more in the future.
Thank you! I’m happy with most of the shots that I’ve taken with this camera. It’s best to shoot, when your subject is well lit. I just wish this camera allowed us to toggle the flash on and off. Nevertheless, it’s still a good camera. It’s fun to shoot with. ✨
You wouldn’t happen to know the thickness of the glass. Anyway you could sandwich the negative between two pieces of glass to get the 3.5mm off the bed glass.
I got the Instax Square, and they've got a lot of similar situations in settings. Watching you do this reminded me to take out my Instax and do dumb things with it for a while. :) And I just watched @inaninstant on RU-vid to get the scoop. He covers this stuff so well.
I've tried the other Instax cameras in the past but never considered to have one until now. And I'm pretty sure most of the Instax cameras are similar in settings. From what I'm hearing, people are saying the Wide 400 is more of step back than a step forward. And while the specs may not be there, one thing that I didn't mention about in this video is the fun factor that it brings out. It's a fun camera to use! And it's important to remember that most Instax cameras are made for the casual users in mind and while the photos may not always come out 100% perfect, seeing all the photos come together brings out the magic. ✨
@@russellrabanal - that's what I think the most. I think it's about the fun. When I brought my Instax out to an event, everyone smiled upon seeing it. I get mixed responses from any other camera. :)
Thanks man. I appreciate it. A video on my pre-production process sounds like a great idea. I’ll definitely consider making one to share how I put things together. Stay tuned!
Most of the time, I've been able to nail my shots without issues and yes they are sharp! I do hear from a lot of folks who have shot with this camera do not find it easy.
So I just picked up a Canon ES55 an have yet to find a working video feed wire. Anything to suggest if the one you listed is not available to Canada? Contacted Canon Canada to see if they have options I have not found.
I’ve been contemplating of removing this video since there is someone on this video that I am no longer connected to. I will keep it here until 2025. If you enjoyed this video be sure to give it a like or comment below. Thanks for watching.
Freaking LOVE THESE!!! I kinda of hate when every image is extremely shallow depth of field which seems more common and very un inspiring/leaning on tech for the image. So all that to say Thank you and love these!!!! I only shoot primes but have been thinking about picking up a zoom for my xt5 =)
That’s where the zoom comes in. It’s versatile! 16-80 is perfect for anything. At least from my experience. I can imagine if i bought a few primes for my kit, the zoom would be on my cam the majority of the time. Others will say the opposite. And thanks for stopping by!! Cheers!
Russell keep doing what you do. I have put the Fuji XT1 as a picture profile on my Nikon D5500 camera and it looks cinematic at night time when I use that picture profile for street photography
What helps is putting a mood board together and referencing photos for poses - this helps model prepare for the shoot and lets them know what you're going for. If you're just starting out, don't be ashamed about pulling your phone out and showing the models what you want. Since I worked with a good amount of people, I usually demonstrate the poses or some models pose on their own which makes things so much easier. The location you shoot at is also a good opportunity to play with the environment. Also communication and being comfortable with each other is key.
@@jenjoestar. hey jen, i'll cover details from my shoots. from choosing models to styling etc. if you have any specific questions, i'd love to cover it in future videos. thanks for watching!!
