    Thanks for the insights, Tristan. Would you advise to start shooting in aperture-mode more to get deeper into it or how would you start to dive deeper into photographing. What are certain settings you shoot different scenes in? I don't have the option to change lenses and would like to work better with what I already have.

  • @tristantakevideo

    @tristantakevideo

    2 жыл бұрын

    Thanks man. I’d actually recommend starting out shooting full manual to completely understand how the different settings will affect the final result. Once I did that, my world changed. This is also useful for sports where shutter speed needs to be used correctly to avoid motion blur (or to use motion blur in the right way), and in low light where the camera needs to be “told” how to replicate the scene accurately rather than always trying to expose the image how it would in regular light. These days I shoot 50% full manual and 50% aperture priority, using the exposure compensation dial heavily depending on the look I’m going for. AV for rapidly changing scenes (while cycling for example) and M for more static scenes or in consistent light. Hope that helps!

    I just cup my hand around the bottom of the phone to stop as much wind noise from going in the microphone as possible, and only film on climbs when I’m going slow. However I’ve noticed in more recent videos my sound has been sh*t so I’ve bought myself a small microphone that plugs into the charging port on the bottom of the phone to improve it.

    Here is a vote for how we can take better video on and around the bike. A This one was great but we need more. Are you taking your videos riding with your phone just holding it? That certainly takes some skill. We would all like to document our adventures better but most of what I (and others) create is not engaging. I know your are a pro and have a lot of practice on techniques and composition but a bit of a series on how the non pro can create better photos/video would be awesome. I think it would be easy content for you and pull in additional viewers/subscribers that you might not otherwise reach.
