Halfway thru and I'm dying at the slow mo talking w the bottle. 😂😂😂😂 This is so helpful! I actually was trying to figure out how to accomplish slow mo better w my xt3. Thank you!
Hey Chris, This is a thank you message, your work is really commendable, we know you do so much of hard work for your youtube. I was new to fujifilm but you have really taught a lot 😊😊🤗... you are a man worth learning THANKS A LOT 💜 Love from India..
The slow motion talking with the bottle... LOL... too funny! I love that you add your humor into these videos and yet they're still suuuuper informative and helpful. You really do a great job putting these together - and make it so much easier for someone who's newer to FujiFilm cameras (and videography) to understand. Thank you!!
Of course, mostly I focus on the content, however, I admire your light scheme in your studio. Your face and background are perfectly lighted at the meantime. Great!
I’ve just recently started playing with video capture on my x-T3 and realized how much there is to learn in the world of video. Your video is very helpful to me because until now, I was have been guessing which settings to use for slow motion.
Hello Chris, I wanted to thank you for all the excellent videos you have produced so far. I live in Australia and up until a year ago, I was a dedicated Panasonic LUMIX GH5 etc users. Moving across from LUMIX to X-T3, X-Pro2 and the X100V has been an easy transition learning heaps from your tutorials sessions. Well Done!
Another fantastic video. Easy to understand, relatable, entertaining, and right to the point. As a stills shooter who is taking baby steps into properly learning how to manage video your content is gold!
This is rhe most informative channel on RU-vid for all things Fujifilm IMO. You deserve to have at least 4X as many Subs as you do! Hope you get there soon!
I love using the 120fps when you shooting cars and motorcycle on twisty mountain roads. Especially top down sort of deal. Superb. Especially when you get the bike leaning in and out of corners.
Thinking of getting an xt3 for slow mo. Just in time!! Please make a video how to read fujifilm exposure histogram. It's kind of confusing. Many other shooters like me expressed the same concern. Love you Pal2tech
Huge thanks to you for all the Fuji info you talk about. I've been following your videos a ton since I got my XT4 a few weeks back. After trying the 120/240FPS features, I found it cool that when you bring it in FCP, it automatically slows it down. Whereas with 60FPS, you have to slow the clip down to 50% for example. Anyways, I liked your video and subscribed to your channel!
It was quite insightful video. I was wondering for quite sometime for the video setting of my new xT4 and this video resolved all my problems. Thank you. I subscribed!
I completely agree with you, I also saw that 240 ftp, I have worse quality, because it is already written with a low bitrate. Probably the processor does not have time to process. Chris, thanks for the interesting story! Have a good weekend!
Excellent tutorial. Edit: I just tried this on Adobe Premier Rush (free version) and iMovie. Neither had the option - that I could find - of setting the frame rate for a video clip project.
Great Video! Ive been shooting some Tattoo videos with my XT4 and I've to say: Even in 240fps, it looks amazing. Of course, you need a good amount of light, but I think in the right conditions, the highest frame rate is good as 120.
Thank you again for the video! Important question that always bugged me. On the xt3 the menu is set. For example 50p shot at 100p (x2) or 24 at 120 or 29.9 at 120. So if I put the 29 on a timeline of 24 will it slowdown further? Second question if I shot at 24p / 120p should I apply the minimum shutter speed x2 ie increase to 240? (Like we do in normal speed, 24p shutter speed 48…) hope someone here has an answer :)
Just a simple but confusing question - I would normally double the shutter speed relative to the frame rate - in high speed record mode is this rule still true? I spoke with Fuji and they say yes this has to be done ? Chris what do you think ?
Question, what shutter speed do we use for slowmo full HD high speed rec 4x 25p/100p? Ive used SS200 for now, because I tought 100p dbl is 200. But im not shure anymore... Big fan of you 😊❤
Hey Chris! Not sure if you mentioned that when you activate the High Speed Rec mode, the sensor is cropped by 1.29x ? I think that is also important that the X-T4 has setting called FIX MOVIE CROP MAGNIFICATION. It adds the 1.29x crop to every video mode so that you can keep the same field of view when switching from one mode to the other.
LOL...slo-mo talking with Tequila is perfect! Thanks for the great video on Fuji slow motion settings...and on Final Cut Pro. How would you compare that program with Adobe Premiere? Similar features? Similar learning curve? Similar ease of use? Or way different?
Definitely interested in one of your comments- you suggested that you wouldn’t recommend using the High Speed Record option “unless you really have to.” For my purpose, I often want 120fps B-roll…. Is there any other way to achieve that on my X-t4 other than full high speed Rec? Or are you simply suggesting you don’t shoot ALL of your footage in high speed rec? Thanks
Long time stills photog looking to understand video. You are helping me so much! First understanding containers and compression (your funniest video!) and now here. I feel you left something out tho. I am interested in slow motion, but not necessarily 120 fps slow. Maybe record all my footage in 59.94p, and then in post I decide what to show at 24 and what to slow? Shooting in this method, will the standard speed footage be lower quality than if I'd originally shot it at 24p? Certainly more convenient. I'm looking to output to RU-vid, if that's an important consideration. Thanks!
Btw, didn't notice image quality drop between 120fps and 240fps until I cranked up youtube to 4k 2160p, so probably both fps would be OK for the most of social media.
If I have recorded in slow motion direct from the camera, is it possible to recover the audio of the clip by putting it at a normal speed? and how can this be done?
Ey brooo, how much speed up percent do we need to do to make a 120fps and 240fps slowmo become normal speed? since I have to do some normal to superslo speed ramping. :) Thanks much!
Would be nice to explain PAL / NTSC, then to say why 25/50 , 24/60 , 200/240... bcs we here in Europe use 25/50/100/200 :) .. then i think quality of 200p is same as 120/100p .. Its most depend on light.. :) Filming in dark will make slow motion relly sucks, but with good quality light you can make slow motion and your videos in some way much more creative. :) , then is an option use optical flow and speed warp, but thats doesnt work always.
Thing with slow-motion, is you gotta have a really good camera which can do that AND PRESERVING fine details, a camera that costs a lot. BUT, for us mortal ones, in achieving good slow-mo, please don't film waterfalls, trees with a lot of leaves, basically scenes with TOO much detail in them. Try to focus on simple things, persons, objects... + USE A VERY SHARP LENS, to compensate for the loss of quality in the slow-mo images.
Sometimes I may have issues and then I turn on optical flow, which that setting seems to fix it. It take a bit longer to render the video out, but the quality improves.
