I cannot open it, please help.

I bought the course and it is A+. There is NO way I would have figured out all the correct settings! Worth every $$$ if you really want to understand how to do video on the super Sony a1. I really like the short lessons explaining what each setting does and then CLEARLY showing me the steps to do them in the menu step by step with video and slow enough that I can follow along. BIG +

Excellent and very comprehensive guide, Just one thing in the section UNDERSTANDING AUTOFOCUS PERFORMANCE did you save the baby turtle? 😥 The setting up MF/AF assigned to a button and lens is brilliant also with macro photography, I was lucky enough to have spent a week on the Isle of Mull in Scotland with Gorgon Buchanan a BBC wildlife camera man and presenter who also told me that all his filming is done in manual focus predominately using the RED cameras.

Hi Mark! Your A1 photo guide helped me tremendously. I am glad that I watched your guide before I made the trip to Costa Rica. Taking video has been something on my mind since day one and I have been waiting for your course. I will definitely take the course. Can I ask you what hardware (ball head/tripod) for video taping you use? I have a gimbal for still pictures and I assume I need to get something else for video?

I prefer to handhold but I suggest a good fluid panning head for video.

Mark thanks for putting this together. Looking forward to picking it up and diving into it. Does it have video editing tips as well. I am FCP user who is new to video editing and would love a guide that teaches me video editing especially for wildlife and nature videos. If you put one together I would love to pick up that tutorial.

I’m not a Fcp user. This doesn’t cover post processing.

Awesome! Any chance it goes over the processing of the footage after the capture with recommendations on a LUT/color grading/and other processes and techniques?

@MarkSmithphotography

Not in this one. This is strictly camera function and technique. I’m thinking a second course for post processing. What would you like to see in that?

@@MarkSmithphotography Thanks! Good to know. I'm just starting to delve into video with my Sony a1, so I don't know what I quite need to know yet. It's definitely a bit of a different beast than photographing and processing photos for wildlife. I do know I really enjoy your videos, and find the colors and transitions you do to be pretty amazing. I guess as I get more knowledge, I'll chime in again to note what I'm still hoping to improve.

Do I have to be online to watch these videos or can I watch them offline saved on my tablet or laptop on a flight or subway commute to work.

@@MarkSmithphotography thank you, Mark

I watched this online class. I have to admit that there was so much of Sony A1 video shooting or video shooting in general I didn’t know before I went through your online course. Thank you for putting this wonderful course together! One question, I transferred my practice video clips from the camera. What app do you use to play/edit video clips? I wasn’t able to play on QuickTime at all.

Hi Mark, I have an A1 but have never done any video ever. Is your course suitable for a complete novice? Also does it cover software?

@MarkSmithphotography

Жыл бұрын

It designed to help anyone and everyone from the novice to a pro. This doesn’t cover any post processing. That will be a supplemental video.

Hi Mark, that’s amazing! I know it will be a success.

Mark, since I am not a Sony A1 user, I will not be taking the online course. I am sure you will be getting lots of order for the course, since your photos and videos using the A1 are amazing.

Mark, will this be applicable to Sony A7 IV instead of Sony A1?

@MarkSmithphotography

Жыл бұрын

Yes very much so but the two cameras have some differences. A74 has eye auto focus for video a1 does not. A1 has more video resolution choices and more frames rates but most of the other functions are the same.

I don't see any previews available. You sure you've enabled these?
