Well, the tips are: 1) Keep the cars clean. 2) Make sure there is no junk in the frame, like I missed that microfiber cloth behind me in this video! 3) Keep your camera steady. 4) dont overcomplicate your shots, and keep them for long enough for people to see. 5) If you review, keep your sentences short and dont use very technical language so most people can understand. 6) pick quiet locations so people dont bother you. As I told you before, the gear I use is : Phantom 3 Pro, GoPro Hero 4 Black, iPhone 6s Plus, Sennheiser ME2, Zoom H4n, all shot in 4K and downscaled to 1080p. Edited in Final Cut Pro.
thank you so much for your tips! My points are - i don´t want to be seen in the videos and i don´t want to moderate. There are a lot examples where this kind of videos work. I don´t have much time to work on the vids and i´m doing them alone. (except the BMW i8). And the most difficult question : where do you get your cars from? It´s really not easy to get the cars from the dealers for filming ...
just one more question - i began 4 months ago. I am happy with more than 7000 views. but i have almost no subscribers. Do you think thats only because of my video quality or are there any tips to get subscribers...!?
+SPOT on CARS I have been doing this for 5 years and still have less than 4k. A good place to start is your social media. Ask friends to subscribe. People tend to go where the masses are, so more likely to subscribe when others are there already.
thanks a lot to spend your time ! I will keep on working on my vids. It´s a nice hobby. Next week I´m awaiting the new BMW 5 Series from the local dealer for filming ...
I went from a BMW 3 series to a 2017 E300. The 3 series drove and handled better. My E300 was peppered with problems. Had to bring it in the shop over 25 times in the first few months. Ridiculous! I bought a car do drive, not to bring it into the shop twice a week for several months! They put me in another E300 (this time a package with heads up display and massaging seats, etc.). First few months, in the shop over 6 times, and Mercedes initially refused to fix the creaking in my door when it went over bumpy roads because they could not duplicate it! Then they were able to duplicate it but wouldn't fix it because it wasn't "continuous" enough! Screw Mercedes! What a POS product they produce! I took a huge loss on the trade in for a BMW. It's night and day! The BMW drives and handles great and has no rattles. It nearly glides everywhere I go. I paid a very steep price to experience how bad Mercedes is! I will NEVER buy a Mercedes again!
That sucks for you. I bought my E300 new and it's now 2021 and 30k miles later. No major problems and the car still drives just like day one. Regular scheduled maintenance has been very expensive, kind of shocking actually. Like almost twice the car payment for one visit to the dealer. I'm fortunate I can afford the high cost of ownership, because the car is beautiful inside and out and drives like a magic carpet.
You do a perfect job! Excellent video quality with real fresh moderation. I wish my vids quality would be only close to yours ! Congrats ! 👌
+SPOT on CARS thanks so much! I'd be happy to share some tips if you'd like.
I am happy about any tips. Especially from somebody who does such professional work !

+SPOT on CARS cars come from manufacturers, not dealers. You need to talk to them and convince them to lend you a car. It's not easy.
Nice car, but I would get the e350 2016 and below- V6 non- turbo, that turbo will go out eventually in the V4 and V6 in the 2017 and up!
V4???????? Just say 4 cylinder my lord.
great car really.. I like that color that is not very common
Is the instrument cluster a upgrade you have to ask for? Because I see some E300 but with the regular basic one let me know pls
In most countries yes. It is optional but you need to check your locale standard equipment.

E400 is the way to go. this 4 cylinder doesn't do the job
+noobkosh it's surprisingly quick. The V6 will definitely sound better, especially the E43 AMG!
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Do Tesla model X review man ... 👍
+Mikal Usman will try :)
