This is how we approach real estate shoots - if you have any questions in regard of equipment and settings, let me know in the comments down below.

@MelvinDlaCruz Месяц назад

This is so kind for you bro I really appreciate

@MelvinDlaCruz Месяц назад

I just have a question for you, which one you think looks better 13 vs 16 for videos, I have the Sony A7 IV but if I get the nisi will be arrow like 13.5 vs if I get the 10-18 will be 16mm

@captainfilmmaking Месяц назад

you‘re welcome

@captainfilmmaking Месяц назад

if you shoot 4K60 with the A7IV you get a 1,5 times crop. So then the 10mm will be cropped to 15mm. If you have bigger real estate venues that’s fine. For really tight spaces the cropped 9mm to 13,5mm (1,5mm wider) would be a slight advantage. But you could work around this, if you switch to 30p when shooting tight rooms, like the bathroom etc., so you don’t have to deal with the crop.

1. What do you do about white balance? 2. when shooting Slog3, how do you expose? Are you using false color? zebras? 3. if so, what settings work best for real estate where there's no human subject and there's nothing but inconsistent and uneven lighting? 4. with the FX30 specifically, how do you deal with low light like closets or rooms with no windows? are you going beyond the base iso? if not, how are you getting enough light to the sensor at F4? 5. What's your editing process? davinci? fcpx? do you typically have noisy footage that you're having to clean up?

@captainfilmmaking 21 день назад

Hi, 1. Mostly I use fixed WB settings. I evaluate the lighting color inside and how it mixes with the daylight from the outside and fine tune it, so it looks the way I want on my monitor with the LUT applied. The rest can be fixed in post. 2. I usually overexpose most of the time. By that you'll shift some of the dynamic range to the shadows - which I want, when I film interior. And the FX30 is rather noise at 2500 ISO. With skin tones I use a false color Lut, or Zebras. For other cases I rather have my lut displayed on the external monitor and my eye already knows how it should look like. 3. A general answer is difficult. As mentioned above - get as bright as possible, it's easier to bring the lights down in post than the other way round. Maybe don't make so much movement between the rooms/changed lighting, and rather shoot smaller bits where the light is consistent and then change the settings for the next part. 4. It depends. I think up to 6400 it can be usable, depending on the situation, but you'll need noise reduction in post anyway. It that case you could also go down to f2.8, which in a small room isn't that big of a deal. 5. fcp. Yes, I use neat video for noise reduction on a regular basis - especially in indoor shots.

Hey, I really like the effects and icons on your talking head video. What software are you using. Envato elements?

@sufij 3 дня назад

I believe this is a manual focus lens, how do you control that on the gimbal for Resl Estate in a moving shot?

@captainfilmmaking 3 дня назад

@@sufij hi, I try to shoot quite closed - maybe around f8 or so. That helps to have a wider depth of field. Then I set the focus to a distance which fits the room I’m filming - maybe 3-5m ahead. And so you should be good to go.

@rafapelikula7482 4 месяца назад

Hi! I have a question, there's apparently a video specific with gears for focusing also Laowa 9mm. T2.9 i think. What are your thoughts? Love your work. Thanks!

@captainfilmmaking 4 месяца назад

I don't own the T2.9 lens, but I think for the most use cases it will be very similar to the f2.8 lens. If you need gears you can easily retrofit them with rubber gear rings from amazon (around 10$). I think unless you're in a high production scenario, where you have to exactly match a set of other LAOWA Cine lenses, you will be better off with the standard 9mm f2.8, as this is way cheaper as the cine version.

@loeshort8852 2 месяца назад

Hi, do you shoot in S&Q mode? What mode do you shoot in?

@captainfilmmaking 2 месяца назад

Hi, for real-estate I shoot in 50fps (or 60fps if you are in NTSC), which is a good compromise for slowing down in post - so no need for S&Q.

@jeremypope-levison721 5 месяцев назад

I'm interested on how you shoot real estate on a manual focus lens? I've only used AF lenses for real estate, but I'd love to be able to use a wider prime like this on my S5 II X. Can you explain a bit on how you do focusing with it?

@captainfilmmaking 5 месяцев назад

I try to shoot in a higher aperture like f4, f8 or so. The higher you go, the wider is your depth of field. The restricted factor is the how bright your location is, and how good your camera performs in higher ISO ranges. Then I set the focus distance to about the middle of my subject/room I’m filming. Mostly a couple of meters ahead in a standard sized room. I think for real estate, I would recommend also setting an AF-lens to manual focus.

@jeremypope-levison721 5 месяцев назад

@@captainfilmmaking thank you for this!

@ananthums8970 2 месяца назад

Do you shoot on Slog3 for real estate ?

@captainfilmmaking 2 месяца назад

Hi, yes I do. But S-Cinetone would also be an option.

@photograhy 3 месяца назад

One question, how do you set focus on this laowa lens? I have it (I shoot on A7IV, 4k has 1.5 crop so this is a perfect lens for it) but I noticed that sharpness is not the best, I have it shy off infinity focus.

@captainfilmmaking 3 месяца назад

It wouldn’t set it to infinity, but rather to a couple of meters, depending on the room-size. So I set the focus to about 5-6meters in a large room. Shooting in a higher aperture(f4 and above) also helps getting more space in focus. When you use a big camera monitor, it’s easier to judge focus issues, instead of relying on the small Sony screen, or focus peaking display.

@kadeshcan 4 месяца назад

does this lens make fisheye distortion?, i have a 11mm ttartisan for a full frame sony a7 IV and the image looks very spherical and fisheyed....

@captainfilmmaking 4 месяца назад

No, not really - that’s the advantage of these LAOWA wide angle lenses, which are marketed as „Zero-D Lenses“ (zero distortion). The video you see wasn’t corrected for any distortion either.

@kadeshcan 4 месяца назад

oh thanks! is there any equivalent lens for full frame e-mount?@@captainfilmmaking

@captainfilmmaking 4 месяца назад

Yes, the LAOWA 12mm f2.8 for instance: amzn.to/3OWybrA @@kadeshcan

@MelvinDlaCruz Месяц назад

Do you tey the nisi 9mm or or the sigma 10-18 mm

@captainfilmmaking Месяц назад

Hi Melvin, I think they are both solid options. The Nisi 9mm is very similar to the LAOWA 9mm (maybe a touch better in some areas), but the sigma with it's zoom range and autofocus is very versatile too, but a bit pricy. As an alternative you could look for the Sony 10-20mm - for real estate I hardly ever shoot below f4 - or the Sony 11mm f1.8. Either way, you can't go wrong, it's more a question of price and your primary use case.

@MelvinDlaCruz Месяц назад

you still usong this lens? i wann get the nisi 9mm for my a7iv

@captainfilmmaking Месяц назад

Yes, it's shines because it's so light and small, yet very wide. So for an APS-C, like the FX30 it's a perfect match. And even on the full frame ZV-E1 I use it, when doing handheld stuff in dynamic active stabilisation mode. Alternatively I use my Sony 12-24mm f4 full frame lens on the ZV-E1 too. It's even wider, has autofocus and is more versatile in some scenarios.

@Riccaagency 3 месяца назад

Would you choose the laowa 9mm over the 11mm 1.8?

@captainfilmmaking 3 месяца назад

Fore pure real-estate shooting, I would pick the Laowa 9mm. The Sony 11mm f1.8 aps-c lens is a great versatile lens too, and better suited for vlogging, because it has autofocus.
