Hi, I’m Sherif Mokbel, a self taught filmmaker and photographer based in New York. I’m dedicating this channel to share my filmmaking journey. The successes and the failures, I’ll take the long routes to guide you through the shortcuts. Tutorials, tips, case studies, reviews and even on-set experience. My goal is to leave you informed, inspired and always a step ahead of your peers. Welcome to my journey
So this rig set up doesn’t work. When you attach the step up ring this covers the magnet area and it’s no longer possible to then add the charger and ssd. There needs to be something to raise the step up ring a LOT. So I’d like to know how to get this to work, hope you can help please? I really want to use my own filters as I have a lot!
Great video but you can actually get even less crop than 1.35 as the BMPCC4k doesn't have a crop of 2 but rather about 1.9 With a *0.64, you'll get about a 1.21 crop
16:20 H.265 has many generations of decoding and re-encoding lossy quality due its 4:2:0 RGB vs. ProRes has generation of decoding and re-encoding lossless quality due its 4:2:2 RGB.
Proxy is used when editing as a stand in for the higher quality source files… Some editing software will let you render your final output using the higher quality source files, but scrubbing with the proxies as much faster.
Are you suggesting to create proxy for H265? But H265 is not “high quality” in this comparison. So what’s the point to shoot a smaller compressed file to still create proxies for it. Defies the purpose. In this case just shoot ProRes and no need for any proxies
Man, very good, but I have questions for example about alpha channel in 4444 xq, do I need it? For now I have a7s3, atomos ninja V, and only prores raw hq shooting I like it so much. Final Cut only for WB, EXP, ISO correction. Next export to 4444 xq without slog/sgamut3 raw conversion wide gamut rec2020 for Davinci resolve what CST I need to set IN (colour space and gamma)? Out as I understand will be rec709. Also I have compressor export to probes 4444XQ (with/without) Alpha channel (what I need to choose)? Thanx !
This video is great for explaining h.265 and prores and how to shoot videos with your iphone. Great! Watched the previous video on the iphone setup as well and that was great too. Definitely earned my subscription
Wow. The educational value of this video is off the charts. Thank you so much for such a clear, thorough explanation of something that had been so confusing before. That combined with the side-by-side examples and the educational graphics, what a service! Thanks again!
This is so helpful! As a photographer who loves minimal setups and learning video, this was so helpful and literally does the job phenomenally. Thank you!
I got the wrong product on Amazon when clicking on your links as I'm in the UK. What was the make and size of the velcro dots please? Great video, shame about the links not always working. But I love the smallness of this set up and that I can reuse my filters!
Very well done video and well explained. The short version is that H.265 is a display format. It is not really an "acquisition format" for editing. You can watch the original footage, and in that case it is really impressive, particularly given its size. It is also great as a display format for all sorts of devices and situations at the end of the whole ProRes editing process.
great video, but fyi hasselblad was bought out by DJI !!, so at 11:27 thats why the skin tone of the 4D is outstanding, as Hasselblad uses Sony sensors, of course, but they tweak the colour science, why the shots look so vouge like!!
Wonderful video! However would never shoot outside of 800 or 12800 on Sony. Also I love the tech comparison… it’s the one we’ve been missing. To me it’s most about the lenses and I haven’t seen an image from this camera that I really loved and it’s now apparent it HAS to be due to the glass. That’s the deal breaker. The best sensor in the world can’t make those horrible lenses look great…. You’d have to have a whole team of teams in post work like on Garland’s Civil War.
Even if i shoot with a mirrorless camera instead of an iPhone, is it better to convert the videos shot with h.264 or h.265 to proress422 or 422HQ before editing?
422 would surely be smoother to edit, but that will only make sense if you have an old machine and you have a lot of space to spare. Also keep in mind that converting to 422 will not bring back the color details back that are already lost when recording in h264 or h265, or remove the compression artifacts from these compressions. It’ll just preserve what you captured with all its problems
Hahaha, no such thing as adding noise in camera. Noise is just fleeting electrical charges with random pattern that affects the sensor in a pixel level. Brands are fighting for reducing this phenomenon, not adding it
Wow, this video is just outstanding and should be watched by every aspiring digital film maker. I just learned SO much, and I feel like I now have the confidence to choose between these codecs with some semblance of actual understanding.
