    Passively accepting a problem or actively looking for a solution. Hit the nail on the head there. Fantastic point.

    Although I agree completely with this video, I'd still recommend getting a camera and lens that's good in low-light. It really comes down to what you're doing. As someone that loves producing various types of content and not just fictional films, different options really comes in handy. Sometimes you want to capture a clip of a beautiful street at night for b-roll or something and having a camera that can capture footage of it beautifully means a lot to me.

    Hi Sam, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate your channel and your cleverness in all of your videos. It honestly sucks that I just found your channel yesterday, because a lot of your videos would have prevented me from making mistakes from my first two short films. I've been binge watching your whole channel for the past two days, you've been opening my eyes and answering questions that I really didn't know had an answer to. I'm just 14, so I have a long, long way to go in this heck of a learning process but I just wanted to let you know that finding this channel was a huge step for me, and I appreciate it!

    • @DSLRguide

    Thank you for this, Simon. I'm looking for a new camera and often get caught up in what my camera can't do, but that's where I come in. Camera's are tools. Every single one is different from the other and does different things. Thank you for reminding me that it's more about the effort I put into the scene, not the camera's weak spots.

    I've seen some ''ISO'' and 'low light filming' vids over the years, but all they seem to do is just further confuse the already confused people. :D You just explained it (crystal clear) in the first couple of minutes of this video. Well done! Oh, and ''passively accepting the problem vs actively looking for a solution?'' Wise words! :-)

    I love your last point. If it's that dark, analyze whether or not it really has to be shot there or if you can rewrite the script or just change your vision. You moved locations in another scene because the sun kept going in and out, but the new location had no effect on the story. great video Simon!

    Apart from allowing you to lower your ISO and reduce noise, using lights also helps you conserve dynamic range in high-contrast areas. An example is the shot of you next to the window; when you used the lights, it looked like the scene was shot on an Arri.

    You're so wise, I am curious how old you are? I really enjoy your videos man. I have just bought the Rebel T5i and i love it. You inspire me to use what i already have rather than buy everything, like you said if i think i need new things to make films/shoot videos then basically I'm telling myself that I have really no part in the film process and that the technology is whats holding me back. Thanks for that.

    @Bakamanzz 8 лет назад

    fantastic explanation of how we need to rely on our knowledge of using lights rather then just pumping up the iso or opening the aperture, another thing people don't tell you enough about relying on your lens aperture is that it makes it incredibly harder for your DP to shoot since the focus is so shallow, it might even double your work load blocking a scene, especially if it's a hand held shot or if there's going to be camera movement. yeah that f1.8 is letting you get in a lot of light fitting your sensor but it can make shooting the actual scene impossible to focus.

  • @JaredIsham
    @JaredIsham 8 лет назад

    I've discovered with my camera, just making sure your image exposure is correct helps a lot with noise. lower ISO and under exposed image looks worse than a higher ISO and properly exposed image.
    also, if you have tons of noise in your image see if you can come up with a story that utilizes it to tell the story.
    good words Simon. great video.

    Great video! This is really an important subject to know as a filmmaker. However, I have to agree with a lot of people in the comment section here. Owning a Sony Camera lets you spend more time shooting footage than actually spending half the time setting up extra lights. It's like Apple. It expensive but it just works. You concentrate on what matters.

    I bought a bunch of potent flashlights, 5 dollars each. I entangled them and bounced their light on a wall. The light spread and give a good effect. They use battery, or can be put on a power plug. They have a strong focal light, but a sheet of paper in front of them will spread the light everywhere. And you can control the amount of light by simply turning on more or less of them.

    This was a super helpful video! I have been struggling with low light scenes for years, so I'm really looking forward to trying these tips out!

    I dont know how many times I have said this to you but you really are awesome.
    Listening to you tell it It seems so obvious. Makes me wonder why I can't figure this out when it really is that simple.
    My brother Thank you. For this. Information is real on this channel.

    Glad to see someone that's finally understood. Shooting at ISO 1 586 826 just can't look good.

      +williamgag in the right situations in might look good, but in my experience it's often easier to just blast some light haha

    Great advise. I'll try back-lighting.
    I was fighting against grain in dark shots and thought my camcorder was crap, well, it is consumer grade. I finally got one of those 160-LED lights with a dimmer and temperature filters (is that what they're called?) and a polystyrene sheet to bounce the light. It's much better now.

    This is sweet. I also managed to get one of my dad's lenses from his camera kit and it is a low-light monster. I'll have to check the aperture on it later. See you next week, Simon.

    Could you do a video on how to set up lights and camera settings when recording a canvas being painted :)
    I know it's a niche problem but it would be a challenge for you considering the painter is blocking the view and the glare from the light sources when added linseed oil to your paint.
