VIDEO EDIT | I forgot to mention in the video that Speed Boosters only work if your lens is built for a larger sensor than the one on your camera. So, unfortunately you can't use them with native lenses.

You're right, it's scary trying to manipulate these settings even on an Android phone using a 3rd party camera app. But it does make a difference, (not pretending I totally get it at this point!), but at least now I know that it is something that must be explored and understood to get the best filming results, especially when working indoors. Thank you very much 🙂

Hey! Great video. I just started recording indoor pickleball on my Samsung S21 Plus. I'm not trying to do anything professional, but when recording at 4k 60fps, the footage is coming up a bit fuzzy. The ISO and shutter speeds were set to automatic, which I realize is part of the problem. What would you recommend for a reasonably well lit gym? Thanks!

@BeyondTheGame_E 8 ай бұрын

You need to learn how to expose properly so that you can adapt to any situation because every situation is different. There's no way I can know exactly what you need to do if I'm not in the elements. But filming at 60fps will automatically make your shutter speed higher than in 30fps. So, to make up for that, the ISO goes up and consequently your image gets noisier.

@TheBruiser86 8 ай бұрын

@@BeyondTheGame_E Hey, thanks for the reply! I certainly don't expect some magic bullet, in terms of perfect settings, but tips like this is great. I think I'll try a max of 800 ISO and a shutter speed of 1/250 next time and see how that goes. If the image is too dark, I would try dropping the shutter speed. Let me know if you have any other thoughts - cheers!

Why shouldn't editors zoom in past 100% if they're shooting 4K? Sounds like that's defeating half the purpose of shooting in 4K.

@BeyondTheGame_E 2 жыл бұрын

4K footage in a 1080p sequence is only 50% of its original size. So, you can zoom in until you reach 100% without losing any quality but passed 100%, that's when the quality starts to suffer. Does that make sense?

If you are in fact filming at the native ISO of your camera, what you're seeing is not noise or grain. It's probably bad exposure or simply bad image quality.

That's Pinnacle FF stuff up. This is all taken with the ND filter on automatic. So I've put that one off and it looks like my colors are getting better that way. If I throw salt over a dark surface. It's creating it's own grains of salt.😀 Thanks so far...

@@winnieoriana4398 Hey Winnie, I couldn't see your video because it is set to private. But looking at the other one you shared, you're basically talking about noise (or grain). Camcorders typically have much smaller sensors than mirrorless cameras and the smaller the sensor, the more noise you'll see in low light conditions. Unfortunately there's not much you can do about that other than using a small light on top of your camera when you can, and only push up the gain on your camera if you absolutely need to.

@@winnieoriana4398 yeah I can see what you mean about the first 9 seconds. But I don't really see it after that though. To be honest, I haven't used a camcorder in at least a decade so I wouldn't have a clue what that is. But maybe it's just a setting or two in your sequence or project that doesn't align properly with the footage settings.
