@@CamberFilmSchool This is how I want the result of my video... I have sent you the link. I saw the result of this video. I want my video in the same way... ruclips.net/video/mfbaCP23NTg/видео.html
These settings helped a lot. I couldn’t control my focus, my shutter or anything while in movie mode. Ill be using these settings for a while until i learn more about cameras
What a really helpful video. Thank you for all the info. If I want to shoot video in low light, with the stock lense, do you have a suggestion of which settings to use?
I would suggest getting some good lighting to make sure your shots look nice even in a low light setting. That said, use the lowest aperture possible on your lens. Frame rate 24 fps and shutter speed 1/50. Then you just have to crank up the ISO until you get the exposure how you need.
Thankyou for posting another knowledgeable video sir it will really help those people out there who have their cameras and dindnt know what to do when it comes with this.
@@CamberFilmSchool I ended up finding your other video right after I posted, which explains it perfectly. D'oh. Thanks for all these, though. I have decades of photo experience but video I'm just clueless.
No. All you have to do it get all the camera settings how you want, and then select one of those memory numbers to assign it. Then if you have different settings, you can go select that memory setting and it’ll change everything back for you.
Technically that’s a Canon term, and for Sony is labeled XAVC-S-I. But no, the a7C doesn’t have that option. You’ll have to get an a7Siii or FX3 for that.
I have a question, I've figured out the upper base ISO is 3200 for the A7C, but for the lower ISO I just cannot figure out if it's 640 or 500. None of the manuals say what it is, and I can't find any info at all online. Can you help?
There’s only one base ISO for the a7C. It’s 800. The easiest way to figure out the base ISO is to switch the camera to SLOG3 and go to the lowest ISO setting that doesn’t show brackets.
@@CamberFilmSchool Nope. In slog3 it goes down to ISO 500 with no brackets. And when you do the noise test, you can see the image get cleaner going from ISO 2500 to ISO 3200.
@jsparrowau there must have been an update that made the base ISO lower. But I’ve never heard of the A7C having a dual native ISO. The a7Siii & FX3 were the first ones to get that.
@@CamberFilmSchool it's clear as day, put the lens cap on view the screen or record at ISO 2500, then change over to 3200. You see the grain completely dissolve. But anyway, I guess that at least answers my question about the lower base ISO.
What settings would you change if I'm shooting real estate video? I have the Sony AC7 and the Sony FE 1.8/14 Gm lens. I'm a complete newbie so I appreciate any response, man!
The setting you’re shootings in doesn’t really make much of a difference. 4K 24 fps and 1/50 on the shutter speed is pretty much the way to go. You’d possibly need an ND filter (which I have videos about) since you’ll be shooting outdoors too.
@@CamberFilmSchool Got it. Just curious, why 24 fps rather than 30 fps? I'm pairing interior video with my dji mini 3 drone which I use 30 fps right now for video. Should both be 24 fps? Thanks!
I would keep them both at the same frame rate regardless of what you use. 24 fps give the most “natural” motion blur that you’re used to seeing in movies because that’s what they’ve been recorded in for about 50 years now. And tv shows in the 90-early 2000s used 30 fps.
You set up the camera with all the settings you want to save, and then assign them to one of the memory recall buttons. Then when you turn the dial to the number you assigned it to, it will load all those settings.
Brilliant video, thanks. I use the same camera. Could you please advise on the best video settings if videos are made indoors using natural light only, but the light isn't strong enough so the resulting video is rather dark? A small comment/answer will be much appreciated, thanks so much 🙂
Hey, filming indoors doesn’t require any change in settings. There are 3 ways to brighten your image. 1 is to use a lower aperture (or get a new lens that has the ability to get down to f/1.4). 2 is to increase the ISO, but be careful of going too high because you’ll start getting a grainy looking shot. 3 is to get some lights which is really the best option because you can shake the way the shot looks to make it way better. Or strategically place your characters near lights to make them look good. On my short film “Bedtime” I had a whole scene where two people were lit with a practical light over a counter and it looked great.
Hi, thank you very much for this explanatory setup guide, it's really helpful! I'd like to ask you what type of camera and sound system you used to record this video!
Thanks for making that effort! Its a good jump start, and easy enough to chose a divergent setting when you happen to know why you want it differently. The wrench in trying to follow lies in Sony blocking a load of things depending on the shooting mode dial, and every time you change the dial to a different mode, it kicks you out of the menu, so you have to click-a-clickety click back to the damned part of the menu you were in. If I could buy a Sony Camera with the Canon UI, I'd do it!
All I have is a gimbal DJI rsc2 and I have a camera lens Tamron and they have it but I want to celebrate the video like a good result uhd 4k. Can you tell me the way you told the setting? I did exactly that.... next??
That video you sent me was 4K @ 60 FPS which the a7C cannot do. But I don’t like the way 60fps looks anyway unless using it for slow motion with 24fps footage. But all you need to do is to put the camera on the gimbal, press record, and start walking around…
Hi, AMAZING VIDEO!!! Silly question, just purchased the camera, but if I were to use my A7C with a Delgato Cam Link, could I use an HDMI to USB-C cable to connect the A7C to my Mac and it still work where I could do live recordings? If not, please let know what type of cable I should use. Thank you.
@@CamberFilmSchool But that’s the whole reason why I bought the Delgado cam link. That IS the interface. There’s plenty of videos about it I just wanted to find out if the HDMI female port on the cam link will work if I use an HDMI male port with a USB-C male port into the camera? That’s what I’m needing to find out? I’ve watched a few videos saying that it could possibly work but I just was trying to confirm it with you that’s all. If you know anything about it great if you don’t, that’s fine too. I appreciate whatever input you can give, thank you.
@@CamberFilmSchool OK thank you for letting me know that. I’m gonna and if it doesn’t work then I’ll have to get the proper cable through Amazon. Again thank you.
How do you keep the "Face/Eye Priority in AF" on, when you have XAVC S 4K Format?. I don't know why, but when I change my file format to 4k, the AF goes off automatically and I try to change it to on, but the camera doesn't let me do it. :(
Very detailed and useful video 👍, When it comes to cameras Camber Motion is the best channel on youtube. The information here is honest and not influenced by sponsoring brands, like many famous youtubers do .. they just hv all the good things to say about every new camera.
So I watch this and I adjusted my camera to the video settings, but when I shot at 1/50 @ 24FPS in 4K the footage came out slow and choppy. Can anyone help me as to why it would do that?
@@CamberFilmSchool I use a Sandisk extreme pro 64 GB that write at 170 MB/s. I took the 4K footage and downsized it to 1080p and that helped a lot. I guess my PC doesn’t like it when I use Photoshop Premiere Elements and 4K.
Hi Camber thank you for A7C info, very good explanation. I have a question. Even my Apple Imac can handle 4k from black magic 6k and 4k from 5Dmkiv, it has a very hard time to edit just a regular 1080 from a7C. Could you give an advice please? Thank you
This is great information and you have an awesome channel that not only deserves many more subs, but also a lot more views. And that's something I don't understand. You make great content with very high quality, but yet your views have dropped significantly over last 6 months or so. The same has happened to me on my channel. Any idea why?
I believe there are two labeled MR Memory and MR Recall. One is for saving whatever the current settings are to one of the options and the other is for selecting the already saved settings. You have to manually reset all of your setting for each mode you want to save before saving them to one of the selectable options.
You can use the active stabilization mode to help. But you can also use a tripod, monopod, slider, or gimbal. I have other videos showing techniques on making tripods and monopods more versatile with interesting video effects using each.
Beginner here, i don't even know which buttons to press. A video for beginners would be useful. I don't find same lists , same names in my canera. Confused.
I showed where each one is programmed. That is the place where you do the programming. You click on each specific button on the menu and then scroll through the options until you find the one I had programmed or a different option of you want. If I put that into the recording then the video would be another 15 minutes long.
I mentioned that I don’t use the S&Q mode because then you don’t have control over how slow your video is when editing. I film in a higher frame rate and change the speed where I want in editing.
