    In this video, I show you the camera gear I use to make my RUclips videos. I discuss how I make RUclips videos outdoors using what I think to be the best vlogging set up for RUclips. I believe the best camera for making videos is the one you have on you. I’ve always got my iPhone 14 pro in my pocket and the video quality is superb. I also take the compact GoPro hero, 11 Black. And I also carry a compact wireless microphone system to record my RUclips audio and how I sync up all of the audio to the video put together the final clip to RUclips.

    There's a lot more to this RUclips lark than I appreciated.
    There is a hiking & wild camping RUclipsr who often complains their video's don't get enough views to warrant the effort involved.
    I kind of see his point now.

    Brilliant! Thanks Paul. I really appreciate your common sense approach. I am only 3 months into my RUclips journey and still working with borrowed kit. I have been filming at my desk so far and plan to do more videos outside when I get the hang of everything. This video has been great to give me an idea of some of the kit I will need. Would it be possible for you do do a video on how you plan, execute and edit your videos? I think a lot of people (me especially) would find it really interesting.

It's highly amiable of you to unselfishly share these extremely important videoing tips and points that cut through all the technical jargon to a more simpler language for a clearer understanding. All truly well appreciated. Thanks old mate. All the very best in Health, Wealth and Happiness to you and your family from the land of endless summer, Cambodia. 👌👌💯

    I would love to start filming my hikes and camps but just listening to the jargon about the computer is enough to make me squirm. Got rid of the dslr because i had so much footage on cards and no clue as to what to do with it. Still, at least i get out there which is the main thing and when i get back i can chill and watch your videos😊

    I would either stake out the tripod to stop it from falling over or put something over the legs like a rucksack if you're just filming around camp. A length of guy rope and a lightweight peg would probably do. Great insight as to how you film and your methodology in terms of workflow. ATB.

    Hello from Cornwall. I live at the bottom of Dartmoor. You're lucky to live near such campable beauty. We used to camp on North Cliffs; that feeling of looking out over the ocean and scale starts to play havoc with you. May you have an extra month on your mortal coil; free of charge.

  • @grsfhhytff
    @grsfhhytff Год назад +2

    Great info Paul. I'll be referencing this video again. This is why you're my favourite Wild Camping channel. Every video teaches you something useful, whereas a vast number of similar channels are made up of clickbait videos with very little educational value whatsoever.
    You're creating awesome content 🤘
    I've been using the GoPro Hero 5 black for years. It's only downfall is that it doesn't zoom so I struggle to capture some of the amazing wildlife I see. Also my content would probably bore the arse off people coz I tend to just film sections of my walks. Maybe I should overdub a bit of historical narrative over it or something, if I'm going to upload it. Or I could do what so many others do, keep my boring content and title it 'CAMPING HERE WAS LIKE CAMPING IN THE FOREST IN DELIVERANCE'
    BOOM: RUclips made easy 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

    The magician shows how the tricks are done. The quality of this channel has always been high. That disappearing boom blew me away when you started using it. I didn't know how you were getting those shots. I thought it was all drone and you were master drone pilot but I never heard the whine sound they make.

  • @WalkWithWallace

    Nice set up Paul, really liking the look of the Tentacle audio set up. I didn't quite get it when you were explaining it to me but makes sense now. Like that tripod at the beginning too. Not as steady as the Aoka but lighter and quicker. 🤔

    Great in depth look at the gear, I'm a nightmare for cameras, have GoPro 10,11, DJI mini 2, DJI Pocket 2 and Sony ZV-1 I find myself using Gorpo as it's mush way easier tbh lol I so love my Sony for better picture tho! The pocket 2 has the wireless mic and that's a game changer for audio but the screen is to small lol

  • @soletrail

    Fair Play Paul. That was probably double the editing time than a wild camp. Always hard have to edit multiple different cameras. Loved it. Have the hero 10, mini 2, just purchased the insta360 X3 " editing learning curve" and have the Poco X3 which films in 4K. Loved this video man.. great tips.

    Thanks for the 'show and tell'. Have you tried the "Sync Audio to Video' feature that's built in to Premier? it just needs a finger click to camera and external sound recorder to work.... I don't know if its timecode accurate, but means you can use voicenote on your iPhone to record the audio and a different camera for the video. The Boya mic system looks cool though. Thanks
