These videos are so helpful. Can you make a new video talking about how to frame real estate shots, how high or low low the tripod should be and also how to edit the pictures?
Thanks! Main advice I have right now is to have your tripod high enough to show more floor than ceiling (usually waist height for normal bedrooms) and high enough to see over things so you can imagine walking through the picture & see over counters / work spaces for kitchens (usually about 5’ for kitchens or rooms with high ceilings / large rooms) Check out some of my other videos for editing if you haven’t already :)
Try using the lens correction profile for the RF 24-240 and set distortion to about 130. That gets the raws from this lens at a bit better of a starting point for editing.
Taylor you are definitely THE MAN!!!!!! Great explanation in detail as usual. If your ever in Florida (Iacksonville) please let me know I’ll pay to see ya work in person. Please continue to put great content out to keep us inspired.
Haha what Did you think about the footage ? I shot everything on it besides the iPhone shots. Seems good ! Just need that distortion correction for LR updated lol
Bottom layer is the one with the least done to it and anything on top of that is layers with brighter spots that will show up. What do you mean about the eye?
Thanks ! Nope. Probably just 1-2 max for real estate & maybe more for architects or interior designers if it makes sense with the project / budget. I normally use 2 flashes to speed things up for shooting & editing for RE - Just wanted to show the possibilities with 1 :)
Just curious on how you found the 16mm looking for a real estate lens for my eos r, currently 35mm is my widest however I still use it some times for it, on a bit of a budget so would you recommend the 16mm and 35mm combo or going for the 16-35mm F4
Hey! I would try renting it if you can, before buying anything (or rent both!) 16 2.8 definitely has a lot of distortion - for photos especially. Not sure if they have added profile correction for it yet on LR to make it easier to edit, but its a bit much if you are using it for architecture/interiors that need to look perfect. Hopefully doing a review on it soon! 16-35 f4 is great, especially for photos, and video if there is enough light. Super cheap to rent either on LensRentals.com - and with my link you can get a discount :) share.lensrentals.com/x/gmEABe
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo I own the 16-35 f4 but shooting dark powder rooms seems impossible. Thinking I need a flash. How are you shooting these with the remote flash without being in the actual photo? I must be missing something LOL You're in some but not others.
Hey! It’s definitely handy. Some I’m just out of frame and bouncing it off the ceiling corner usually. For the more creative stuff it’s easy to just edit out in Photoshop after basic adjustments in LR when combining the layers 👌👌 But for most cases a room only needs one fill flash shot and it’s good to go.
Yeah! Usually behind the camera as close to being in frame as possible. Check out this video for some more real world / simpler examples. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kaFxz-t5AkI.html
Taylor thanks for your videos I see you used the RF 16mm f2,8 I am awaiting mine to be delivered which has not arrived yet in South Africa - you comments on the lens and how does it compare to the Canon 16-35 f2,8 TIA
Hey! Yes, I used it for this whole video except some iPhone shots behind the camera. It seems pretty good, but distortion on some shots is pretty noticeable, and colors are a bit different to be honest. I’ll do a full review once I have done some more tests :)
Great video. DO you have any videos on how you do your editing at the end? Also I see your using the RF 16 mm 2.8. Im actually thinking of getting this for real estate. Do you recommend this lens for real estate or do you think i should get a zoom instead of a prime lens? I been searching videos of real estate using this lens and your video is the only one i have found so far.
Not totally sure if I recommend the 16rf yet, but maybe! It has a lot of distortion on RAW photos and I’m not sure if the calibration stuff in LR is up to date to fix it easier yet. Still testing it out but it’s a cool little lens. I’ve mostly been using it for vlog/BTS shots since it’s so tiny & light.
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo thanks for the response. I’m going to figure out about that Lightroom distortion fix in Lightroom. I’m just learning about it. Thank!
@@blomquist.j Pretty consistent ! Of course there are always different challenges for every composition but it helps me to have options. I have a few videos where you can see them - the web design video for final edits, the OCF editing video with lots of examples, and another BTS video using them (1 or two for different compositions) on a shoot and moving around quick!
