    Great practical information for us video "newbies". I want to focus on shooting more casual video, both on my X-T4 and my iPhone, but some of the info I have sourced can become quite frustrating. Using VND filters to help slow the shutter speed is great on a Fuji camera, but trying to do so on an iPhone, while keeping the weight low enough to not over-tax a gimbal's motors is a chore. Thanks for helping to change my thinking from "video excellence" to "video enjoyment".

    Great tips Omar. I would add, as far as autofocus goes, just use typical Area AF-C and put your subject in the box. If it’s hunting because of low light or challenging conditions, switch it to AF-S and half-press the shutter to focus as needed during recording and it won’t hunt in-between.

GOP is faster also, it's less strain on the computer.

    Ok, set up per instructions. Check. Take some vids. Check. Hold camera steady? And keep subject in frame? Ha, was that even in the instructions? Took 4 vids of less than a min each. Last one is actually ok. In a very non cinematic way. Imported to LR to view. BUT What now Coach???? Need an OMAR vid stat on what to do next!

    My XT2 is very sad now. Never made a video. The closest to video he ever got is on CH.
