    Thanks a lot. Very useful. I have a question. What kind of lense I need to use during my teaching lesson at home, talking and writing on a white board? Thanks in advance,

      You’ll probably want something like the Sigma 16mm f1.4

    Great Video! Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see what the F-stop/aperture should be set to? I see yours has two --

    • @MikeBSalazar
      @MikeBSalazar  Год назад +1

      I didn’t have a lens mounted so the F-stop was unavailable. But generally for videos indoors I keep it as low as possible at like f/2.8 if I can. I may have it at f/4 when outdoors

    Would love to see the before and after of how these settings actually impact your photos or videos. Would make more impact on why we should use certain settings.

      These definitely help with ease of use and just making things more accessible for sure.

    Hey what's up man! Do you have a recommendation for how I should set the white balance in a controlled environment?

    • @MikeBSalazar
      @MikeBSalazar  Год назад

      I have my lights often set to 5500 or 5600 K. I also use a color checker for my lights and have found that setting my Kelvin to 4700 works well for me.
      Try playing around around that area until your whites look white.

      @@MikeBSalazar I guess how do I know when my whites look white? Should I use a white piece of paper to set the white balance?

      @@PierceJPeterson This is an option. Try manipulating your Kelvin up and down until the piece of paper doesn't look blue or yellow, but white.

    Hey Mike, I would need some help setting up my ZV-1, are you able to make a video on that too?

      Perhaps this is a camera I ought to rent and take a look bit of a look at. I still have my Sony RX100III. It’ll be a good opportunity to dig through the similar camera experience as well.

    Hello, I have a question. Why on my sony a6400 device I don't have all the modes that you have, for example: on XAVC S 4K I only have two shooting options 25p 100M and 25p 60M. The device is at software version 2.0, which means the last one. Please help me with this problem, what do you advise me to do. Thank you

    • @MikeBSalazar

      Its a regional thing. Its fine for you to have those settings. You can change the settings if you want in in the last menu where it says NTSC/PAL. So its fine for your to use those settings you already have based on location.

    Love the look of your video and I want to create something very similar. I know lighting plays a big role. I'm very new to this and very limited knowledge. I have an a6400 with 3 lenses: 50mm 1.8, 35mm 1.8, 35mm 2.8. Which lens would you recommend shooting with?
    Also, would love to see a video breakdown of your setup and how you edit! Your videos are great and to the point!

    • @MikeBSalazar
      @MikeBSalazar  Год назад

      Thank you very much! I do have a breakdown of my setup in the pipeline so stick around for that.
      And the lens to shoot with really depends what youre going for. If youre using a talking head like mine, depending on the space that you have, that 35mm f1.8 is your best bet

    Hey what picture profile is the best to use if i want to color grade it

    • @MikeBSalazar
      @MikeBSalazar  2 года назад

      I use SLOG 2, but I also have used HLG for color grading. You have to over expose your image by two stops for SLOG 2 but you dont have to so that for HLG.

    I have a question, when i open video settings i can seem to find the 24 frames only 25, when I checked online i found out i need to change to ntsc format when shooting and then back to pal to view on a laptop or edit but each time i do that it formats the whole camera so do you have any idea what should be done or how do you work this out?
