Great video ❤

[@brunomamede2352]

Half video out of focus. That’s why I don’t trust Panasonic cameras. Overall, great content!!!

Looks like he used manual focus on m43 ... even manual is better the AF there :D.
But S5II series have great AF.

[@calvisionsproductions3753]

@@JoATTech I used the S5IIx in the opening shot which lost me a bit. I didn't double check the footage until I was in ediitng and thought to myself "will anyone notice, because they'll be learning so much and laughing cause I'm naturally hilarious." haha

[@JoATTech]

@@calvisionsproductions3753 I bet you used the oldest firmware. With the newest one it's impossible for AF to loose the person ;).

[@MantrVani]

Great work... lot of hard work to give this information... Kudos! Thanks
What's the dimension of Neewer softbox here?

[@calvisionsproductions3753]

Thanks! The Neewer softbox, the smaller one is 17.7x11.8

Good stuff.. But don't forget to bounce light instead of a soft box.. I have a few projector mounts and use them to blast light into a very specific area to bounce the light and get a larger (therefore softer) light. I bounce it into a bounce card or white ceiling or wall - whatever is available. I also keep mirrors with me just in case!.
The focus thing - that's why I love my Sony A7Siii! I love that you posted it even though there are parts out of focus - if you wait until it's perfect you'll never post anything! Keep up the great work! Sub'ed

[@calvisionsproductions3753]

Mirrors, that's something I never really thought about using. That's something I'll have to try sometime.

[@chamodsasitha9126]

Nice video. very educational
but half od it out of focus? I think. But Subscribed. Looking forward for more

[@calvisionsproductions3753]

Thanks! Yeah I didn't review to make sure after a take until I was in editing. Thought it'll be fine if I make one joke about it haha

Creative but… not really a tiny room but a larger room with lights all in close. If you put some v-flats or hung some bed sheets on c-stands or background stands on three sides you would have a true simulation of a tiny room and a better exercise on problem solving. And use white since more often than not walls tend to be lighter in color. Then you could have a go at trying to control all that bounced flat lighting. No walls is kinda cheating. Unless you were assuming your small space would have black walls.

........Well...with the power of hindsight am I right?
